Hi , I've been playing with these roms here for the last few days and before messing around tomtom & gps were all working fine, but @ the moment tomtom will not detect the gps. I think I have the Vanilla 4.02 on @ the mo but I've loaded a few today so I'm not sure but it is the same issue with them all.
Second question which is a little easier do I ned to keep removing the sd card before flashing ?
Cheers & Top site Thnx

Hi any help is appreciated... Ive finally got my TT5.1 to work following the other threads in this forum, however the problem I have now is that it keeps closing after a minute or so..??!! I have read through other posts and some have said this is linked to the POIs, I have disabled them and tested but the same thing..??! I have done a clean install and even tried instaling to the storage card but same prob.. I used to have this prob after upgrading my XDA2s to WM5 but a reinstall fixed it..
Any ideas please..
UPDATE:
READ BELOW FOR RESOLUTION I FOUND AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH...
FINALLY FIXED... TOMTOM 5 WORKING PERFECTLY......
OK, AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THE PROBLEM OF TOM TOM CLOSING UNEXPECTEDLY IS RELATED TO THE READING OF THE MAPS ON THE SD CARD ... SO I DELETED THE MAPS AND COPIED THEM OVER TO THE CARD AGAIN.. AND HEY... IT WORKS FINE NOW... TO SUMMARISE HOWTO GET TT5 WORKING PERFECTLY WITH WM5....
1--- TO GET THE COM PORTS RECOGNISED READ THIS ..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=28386
BUT THIS TIME DONE HARD RESET (CLEAR STORAGE IN START- PROGRAMMES) THIS WILL WIPE YOUR EXEC.. INSTALLED TT5 FROM SCRATCH , THEN FOLLOWED INSTRUCTIONS ABOVE..
BUT THIS BIT IS CRUCIAL.. WAIT AT LEAST 1 MIN BEFORE THINKING IT HASNT WORKED... AND DONT GO BACK THINKING IT HASNT WORKED (AND DONT CHANGE THE SETTINGS BACK TO COM 7 IN TT5 GPS... ) EVENTUALLY YOU SHOULD SEE THE GPS STATUS COME ON WITH THE BARS ...
MAKE SURE YOU DONT TRY ANY OTHER PATCHES / CHANGES BEFORE DOING THIS ...
2---- DELETE ANY MAPS YOU CURRENTLY HAVE ON YOUR SD CARD AND COPY THEM OVER AGAIN...
3--- DO SOFT RESET AND EVERYTHING SHOULD BE OK NOW... :wink: :shock:
Hello !
I have a question for TomTom users with an SIM+ card : does it work properly ?
As far as I can see TomTom seems to search its files on the SIM+ card and doesn't see that there are maps on the SD...

Hello !
I finally bought a new TomTom map for Europe and install it.
As soon as I select the new map in TomTom I got the first message : "An exception occured: Memory access violation."
Then I do a few tests with others ROMs (HTC, Orange and WM6) and now for each map I got the message : "Unable to start. An exception occured: Memory access violation."
Does someone have an idea ?
So...
After testing all FRE and/or WM6 ROMs it still doesn't work...
Finally I decided to forget my dear backup and to reinstall almost everything after a format of my SIM and SD cards... and it works...
Conclusion : unknow cause...
hello,
i downloaded the wm6 rom kitchen yesterday (helmis i think as its the only wm6 one i could find for BA) and used some other oem packages from a3xl (mainly windows live and a couple of reg tweaks) but for some reason although the rom is within the size needed (theirs alot of free sectors) it wont work right and basicly locks up on startup and once i eventually get to the today screen the wireless today plugin is jumping between 1 and 2 lines and start menu has only today and coldinit options. i cant see what ive done wrong as i tried making a rom with no extra features and that fails also. yes i hard reset after flashing also. ive gone back to a precooked rom for the moment but i wud really rather have a self made rom with the apps i use integrated to save my storage memory
any ideas ?
cheers
Hi all,
Have searched the wiki and threads but can't get a definitive answer?
So my question is this....
I have a Vodafone V1605 that is running with its original ROM (which is generally cack but I do use TomTom 5.21 with a Holox receiver which actually works pretty well.
Now, I've just bought TomTom Navigator 6 (latest version and so latest build - can't be precise, but will d/load latest update when s/w arrives).
However, I'm also considering flashing my ROM for a WM6 build (or later WM5 build if that's a no-go).
There's nothing like making a challenge for yourself is there
So basically, is there anyone out there who's managed to:
a) Flash a v1605 successfully with a stable WM6 ROM (and if so, which ROM)
b) Then managed to get TomTom Navigator 6 running on it?
Thanks all - what a hugely useful forum this is!
Mate, as long as your phone is a Hermes, every wm 6 rom works brilliantly but wm6.1 is SPEEDY and some of the newer releases seem stable (its been getting better as the chefs get newer builds). You need to do some research to find the right rom for you as its a personal choice on what you like... DON'T make the mistake of asking what is best as you'll be inundated with answers why people think the rom they are using is best but it may not be the best solution for you...
As for Tomtom, It works brilliantly. Just upgraded to Tomtom 7. If you looked here 1st you would have found it on the site for download. It is offered on the Diamond and has been ripped and modified to work on the Hermes. You still need to purchase maps but it is a hell of a lot better than Tomtom 6.
My suggestion, look here first before spending cash, sometimes you find apps that are as good as or better than their commercial counterparts... There is a hell of a lot of apps out there that aren't available commercially too. Most apps seem to feature here first and then go commercial (a good example is touchflo). Thats not to say that the commercial programs aren't brilliant too and I believe the pittance we pay for them REALLy does help to make some awesome apps..
Cheers...
If you do upgrade your os, make sure you read and do this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Hard SPL is a MUST for anyone flashing roms... It won't guarantee a perfect flash but makes it SOOOO much easier if(and when) something goes wrong...
Also give this a read as you can unlock your phone to allow ANY sim card to be inserted and used - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665
Welcome, and happy flashing....
Thanks mate - all sound advice
First thing I did was to install Hard SPL (2.10 Olipro) - better safe than sorry - but that's as far as I got.
I did try to install the latest (final) official Vodafone RUU 2.07.161.1, but it crapped out with Error 260. I decided to cut and run at that point as I was worried I'd bricked the device - but it's all ok now after a hard reset (yes, I'd backed up my data
I'd be using an err... eval version of TT5.21 and it's been great - so much so I decided to cough for a full legit copy (UK and W.Europe) of TT 6 Navigator.
I'll try it on the standard ROM (WM5) but well, you know how it is, I like to have stuff up to date, so it would be good to flash a WM6 ROM. Oh, this and the fact that Vodafone won't give me a phone upgrade until next October!
So I just wanted to hear from someone who'd done it successfully with a full-fat version of TT6 Navigator running on WM6. If it was running with a Holox BT receiver then even better!
S/ware (and 2Gb Micro SD card) here in a day or two - so will sit tight and see....
Thanks!
tt running
i have latest radio 1.54.30.10 Schaps_WM6Pro_Hermes_4.31_WWE_Lite on my v1650 supercided
tt7 (orig.)) fine runing all m8
tomtom works perfectly on the hermes, v5/6 or even the tt7 version. I have it working on pdacorner pro wm6.1 v15 at the moment and it works fine.
So chill out on the worries and flash a wm6.1 rom if you get a 260 connection error try entering the bootloader manually yourself and try flashing it then, just tick the boxes saying you agree and you have an active sync connection(even though you dont). Also if you download one of the latest wm6.1 packages then the ruuwrapper file is an updated version which solves most of the silly errors that pop up when trying to flash e.g. error 260/300 etc

That's what I wanted to hear - thx mate
If connection issues are a worry however, now you have Hard SPL you can use the SD Card method. I personally haven't EVER had problems with this and I believe its safer as there are no concerns about usb cables being unplugged, reset button being pressed or powwer fluctuations/outages.
To do this,
1).first format an sd card fat32.
2).Copy the .nbh file in your upgrade directory to it and rename to Hermimg.nbh. 3).Put into hermes and go to bootloader screen ( hold powerbutton, OK button above flywheel and rset with stylus. Hold in until tricolour screen appears - This is called bootloader screen) It should automatically recognise the os flash information.
4). Follow prompts..
Easy as 1,2,3,4.

hello,
can anyone tell me hoe to get igo8 to work ?
i've installed it, but it doesn't start ..
i've tried igo2006 but it doesn't work aswell..
i can't get them to start at all...
thanks
...
hello, in my jade igo 2008 perfectly. Have you configured it?.
i don't know how..
i've copied the 2277 and igo folders to my card, run the autorun, and copied the crack to the jade..
what else must i do ?
thanks.
You have to try more versions, for me running 8.0.0.49545 and 8.3.1.xxxxx, but I have problem with fixing satellites, it is periodically fixed and unfixed in 1 sec period... Only sometimes fixed ok :-(
i don't think it's a version problem, because igo 2006 does the same thing..
i don't know how to configure them...
can anyone tell me what i have to do after i've installed the programs ?
Igo2006 nor running under wm6.1, some patch exists, but I didn't try them. I never install Igo, only copy it to sd card, you have check the right path in sys.txt
[folders]
app="Internal Storage/iGO8"
i've tried that, still doesn't work..
Victor, what version of iGO8 are you trying to run. Version 8.0.0.49545 is definately working on my Jade with only one major caveat: switching off the display (by pressing the top button) causes communication failure with the GPS and requires a restart of iGO8 in order to rediscover the GPS.
thanx a lot for your help..
i finally managed to crack it , and it works just fine..
@victorpagu May be you had problems with licenses?
Maybe you should read more than 5 words... And with this patch running only Igo2006+
Work! Attached the pictures.
I got igo8 to work..
I don't know what the problem was..Probably the license or the data archive..
Thanks for your help !
And you sure it is Igo2006, not 2006+? I test patched Igo and working, but it is latest Igo 2006+ with new developed patch for Diamond due to wm6.1!
Alekss_UH, how did you solve fix and an unfix problem with GPS each second?
I have TT v7.9 and iGO 8.3.1.57021 and both have the same problem with GPS in my JADE.
Don't know how to solve...
