I have tom tom navigator 6 with uk ireland and europe maps which worked brilliant on my tytn II. but it doesn't work on my touch HD as the screen resolution is all wrong so i followed a link on this forum that allowed me to download tom tom 7 which does work fine on the HD but it doesn't come with any maps. tom tom home on my pc recognizes that tom tom 7 is on the device and that i've got maps installed on the phone but when i start tom tom 7 on my HD it doesn't recognize the maps are there. How can i get it to recognize the maps?
so you are trying to get TT6 maps to load on TT7 software?
yeah if thats possible.
I confirm is possible. I was in the same situation as yours (tytn II with TT6). I installed TT7 on my new blackstone, connected to TT home, update device (TT home needs to be aware that you upgraded) amnd then installed the TT6 maps.
Everything is working fine now.
hi, which versikon of TT Home?
thnx
Cannot check right now but it's not the latest, it 6 month old...ar u saying that maybe it's not working with the latest? I won't upgrade then.
well for me, i am new to all of this
I will get my HD next week (hopefuly) and then i'll start experimenting with what i have gathered of info and software.
I hope i can get everything up and running before my trip to the states.
Just checked my version, is 1.5

I have just installed TT5 on my M1000 replacing TT3
My question is this is there anyway to get the TT3 maps of the USA to run with TT5, as I am off on my holidays there, will need to use TT5 to navigate to the airport, fly over and switch to USA maps when i land at the other side.
Will i have to uninstall TT5 and just use 3 as before ?
Or will both programs run together TT5 for UK map and TT3 for USA?
I bet the answer wont be a easy one
Thanks in advance
I installed a tom tom Navigator in my 3600 and work good with the map europe and Canary Island, I installed USA map but it not reconize the map somebody know why is not working fine, the map is for navigator for 3600.
Maybe coz yr cracked version is not the right one
Google TOMTOM map compatibility and make sure the map (version) is compatible with your version of Tomtom.
Hi all latest version of tom tom home is now working with my xperia with tom tom 7 installed, including mapshare and have downloaded over 3000 corrections to my map Didn't change anything it just started connecting.
Hm, TomTom allows free updates for maps? I'm still using TomTom 6 but have never updated the maps before. How do I go about in doing that?
Weird...mine worked from the get go...
sorry.. you mean i can buy tomtom7 for x1 now or?
It seems it's touchy - my TTH (2.5) has never connected.
Wish I could get it to connect, and will try again tonight, because a decent GPS program is hard to come by.
Wayfinder wants to download maps over GPRS which is simply unacceptable. Downloading 185 MB maps over GPRS @ approx 50c-1Eur per MB!! (maploader doesn't see the phone, even though WM Device Center sees it)
Sorry if this is a stupid question but how do you connect to Tomtom Home from within the Tomtom 7 program? I can't see it in any menus.
dont need to just connect x1 to pc with tomtom home running and it will detect it , you dont have to have tomtom 7 running when you connect.

That is if you have lady luck on your side
I agree with the updated version of Tomtom Home I can now connect, and Home can see the phone and SD card. It correctly identifies it as X1i, but won't allow me to buy a map for the device. I'm running 7.910.9185. It can also see the app, free local map and one voice downloaded directly to the device.
On the Tomtom site it also warns "Please note that maps for Navigator 7 are only compatible with devices that have this software pre-installed. Please ensure that you have Navigator 7 installed on your device before purchasing a map. "
...so I'm not really interested in wasting the money unless anyone can verify a method of adding full UK map to an X1 through Home?
Yes wont allow the purchase of maps but if you have the latest map installed already, in allows you to use map share to update the map and adds just under 4000 corrections to your map.
Arrrrrrgh. Still no connection with Tom Tom Home.
I'm running:
R2A0010 UK Generic
TTH: 2.6.1.1549
TT7: 7.910.9185
For those who have it working - what versions are you running?
7.915 9196 tt7
uk map 825 2159
tth 2.6.1.1549
Trying in this thread too, hoping for help...
I've got the same version of TT7 installed on phone, working OK.
But, I can not access my maps bought from TomTom.
They show in TomTom Home (v.2.6), but not downloadable.
TT Home recognizes my xperia, but says it's invalid application installation.
When I asked on an earlier thread I was told I needed install TT7 on SD card, not phone memory. But my installation does not give me any target options...
Sorry for being a noob, but sure hope someone can guide me thru this, going on holiday to the UK monday, would love to have it up and running with maps by then.
If a step by step can be given pls do so, via PM or here.
Thx in advance
when installing tt7 , win mobile gives the option to install on Device (phone) or storage card (SD). Hope that helps.
The version I have also gives me the option for device or SD card.
Finally got TomTom working.. after having actually legally bought the maps, I had to download and crack a pirate copy to be able to use them.
Go figure.
i can't get mapshare to work, it just says mapshare is not supported either for your device or the map you are using. can anyone help with this? i'm using tt7 7.915 9196 and western and central europe maps v815.2034
Im having problem when im loading new poi´s , i have to restart the program after each downloaded poi...
Does anyone else have that problem ?
What is the most reliable Sat Nav software for MDA Vario II? I have been looking at Garmin Mobile XT or Co-Pilot 7
Just wondered about any reccomendations?
Any comments would be much appreciated
people report various success with different software depending on where they are in the world for map covering and updates
fair point, well I'm in the UK so does anyone know the best ones for UK coverage?
Thanks
I'm in the UK and use Tom Tom on my Touch Diamond, it works really well. Have only just got myself a Hermes (£25) so have yet to try any sat nav software on, yet.....
TomTom
I've used TomTom software on all the following devices with excellent results:
- SPV M500 (Magician)
- SPV M3100 (Hermes)
- HTC Touch HD (Blackstone)
IGO 7 works like charm on my hermes.
Cheers
what version of Tom Tom is reccomended? I have Windows Mobile 6
Thanks
The Tomtom ripped from the tytn II is OK, Tomtom 7. You do need to purchase the maps though...
Can anyone confirm that TomTom 6 works on the Hermes?
or what is the best version to run and why?
Thanks
I can confirm both tomtom 6 & tomtom 7 both work fine on hermes.
For tomtom 7 you can get the more recent maps, but it requires more ram to run. When I was running a m2d rom I had tomtom 7 close randomly on me a few times. No problems if you have more than about 15MB ram free though.
I like Tomtom 7, have no problem running it on my Jasjam... As I said though, you need to purchase the maps. The best things in life don't always come for free...
I live in South Africa, and am pretty limited with sat nav options. Co-pilot has no maps for us. So i'm pretty much left with Tom Tom.
Does Tom Tom 7 integrate with the built in Navi Panel of the HD2?
I've also seen on these forums that TT7 is not actually made for the HD2, and that you have to make some tweaks to get it to work. Is this true, or does is just work after the install.
Personally, i think for a phone that costs this much, it should come with free sat nav software.
Hi there, TomTom7 works great on my HD2.
Even with new 'Laurentius26 HD2 [LEO] V4.5 Ultimate' rom, I can use it in landscape!!! (laurentius26.net)
greetz,
Ted.
Same for me
Thanks for your response.
Does it work with the built in Nav-Panel, or do you just use the Tom Tom interface?
Works fine i have original rom vodafone NL used before TT6 on Mio pda Now TT7 on HD2 wow superfast even inside house quick gps connection and maps also for South Africa works fine.
Hi
I am using original HTC ROM WWE, and TT 7 works perfectly.. and after BSB Tweaks I am also using it on landscape mode.
