TT5 & BT: procedure to install & make it work

Hi,
I just tested successfully the following procedure:
1) install TT5 using .cab files (transfer to the device & run each one)
2) pair BT unit;
3) configure TT5 using "Other Bluetooth GPS", "max baud rate", "com 0";
4) close TT5;
5) copy the navigator.cfg file (in Programs\Navigator on your device) via Activesync to desktop;
6) open the file with wordpad - DO NOT ALTER anything else but COM0 to COM5;
7) close the file;
7b) save the file modified back to the device;
9) Turn on BT reciever;
10) start TT5, wait a few seconds and...voilà !

Cool
I'm glad to see that someone else has tried it and it works for them too.

thanks Italos !!!

Sorry for asking, is this registered TT5 or <you-must-know-what-I-meant> ?
Because I dont have a registered version, but it is working find with my Magician.
Thanks!

We are not talking Magician we are talking Wizard
I had it working fine on my Magician, just like you
But I have upgraded to a Wizard and the above
process is what I had to do to get it work on the Wizard

Yeah I know that. We are talking about WIZARD.
That's why I use but ... meaning: it (my tomtom) is working fine with my Magician, but I dont know if it will work with WIZARD.
That's why I ask "What kind of tomtom do you use?" ... Registered? Or CRACKED one (like mine, in my Magician).

Makes no difference m8 - the problem seems to be "universal"
It should work if you follow those instructions, you have a BTGPS receiver and whatever install of TT5

Hi Guys,
New on this Forum, bought a Qtek 9100 a few days ago.
Have been struggling since to get tomtom 5 to work with my BT GPS, and
I just wanna say big thx to Italos for the instructions, worked like charm.
One thing though, I still got TomTom 5, I tried to install the 5.1 update and ended up in it saying it can´t find any maps...ok so back in version 5 all that was located in the "\My Documents\TomTom\CurrentMap.dat file. SSo I edited that one to point to my map on the storage card.
Fired up TomTom 5.1 again, and still not working, ok then I was not sure I had a real tomtom5 map, so I tried to extract the map from the TomTom5 DVD, well wen´t fine just to extract the cab, but I then ended up with these files.
00000.poi.010
000cline.006
000faces.004
0mapinfo.005
0traffic.009
SCANDI~1.000
SCANDI~1.007
tmccodes.008
I guess it will work if I extrackt these ones and replace those on my card, but how do I go about it?
I have tried with winrar, and that does not work, anyone who knows which program can extract these files?
thx / fahlis

It works for my 838.. I have lockup and unable to switch to SDcard mode only if I connected to my PC and activesync once and unplug. But that seems to be the activesync issue in my 838 which fail to free itself from unplug from PC. So it cannot switch to SDcard mode..and prompt me an error message.
I have already switch to AS4.1 but does not improve my situation.
What is Microsoft doing here?? :roll: A soft reset is the only way to get my device syncup again.. :x

I own this program since I had my XDA mini ...
finally I can use it again to copy some files to my pda and use it as a memory stick...
I also noticed some problems:
1. after I connect the USD cable and the PC recognized my pda as a memory stick, Windows XP asked me to make a reboot in order to be able to use the new 'harddrive'
2. after I copied a .jpg to my pda it looked like the storage card is no longer recognized by WM5. The icons of the shortcuts to programs I installed are missing and I cannot browse with TotalCommander to my storage card.
After disconnecting the USD cable, my storage card could be found again - is this a bug or a feature?!
After the first connect in mode 'Card Export' I switched to 'Active Sync' and the synching went on without any problems.
After agains swithing to mode 'Card Export' my Wizard gave an error message, as follows:
"Cannot switch between Card Export and Active Sanc modes. This may be because of missing dlls or corrupted registry entries."
This looks also to me like an incompatibility between card export and active sync.
Hmpf ... rebootet the phone and connected - voila - my Wizard was again properly verified as Memory Stick and I again could upload another .jpg to my device.
It looks definately unfinished ... but it is working quite acceptable to me, though there is a lot room for improvement, it will get the job done, if I need a memory stick 'on the go'.
My device is a HTC Wizard, O2 german.

i may be wrong on the second point, but activesync alters a file when you transfer it to the pda,
so if you transfer a file to the card (even using a card reader) then put the card back in the pda wm5 will not recognise it properly.
point 1 should only happen the first time of detection.

have no problem with my XDA II...

I am experiencing the same... Please update this topic if you'll find a solution.

i'm having the missing dlls dialog problem too.
I noticed that once you activesync'ed, you can't switch to card mode and need to reboot the device.
However, mine can't seem to work anymore. It won't even switch. But I also tried disabling my today's screen (pocket plus and pocket breeze) and it works... but only the icon manage to change. My PC can't detect it as a mass storage device though.
Any luck?

Mine is working fine, I got that dll message once but a soft reset fixed it.

Just wondering what roms are you guys using that works with softick? I'm using rom version 1.6.7.1 WWE which doesn't seem to work. I tried hard reset and install softick on the first reboot. The computer detected a new hardware but failed to install the device.

Same here too!! using ver 2.12
ver 2.11 worked fine with me, so most probably I will downgrade to it now.
I emailed the tech support and waiting for their reply. I will post it here in case I get anything new.

I just tried v2.12, and it didn't work. I found v2.11 on some download site, and installed it. v2.11 worked fine on Qtek's 2.8.7.1 ROM.

I cant get this to work either using 2.12. I get the device manager problem as mentioned previously. Does anyone know where can i get 2.11 from?
found it here:
http://www.softick.com/files/CardExportPPC211c-softick-en.zip
but i get the same problem

You can find previous versions in the "download" section on the left.
I'm having the same issues, used to work fine with 2.11, then it stopped being able to write but could still read (this is on my Mac), and now with 2.12 I can't even get the thing to mount. I'm talking with the developer to see if we can get a fix.

Any 2.12 and 2.11 not working for me... My computer and three others shows me message that they don't have drivers

I posted a query on their forum.

I'm a bit confused regarding their reply.
You asked a question about the Wizard and they replied saying they are waiting on delivery of HTC Universal to examine it better. I'm not sure what the Universal has to do with compatibilty for the Wizard as they are completely different devices with different hardware. (Mybe i'm wrong and the hardware components that Card Export uses is actually the same on both devices)

Puckster -
I noticed this on second look, and asked for clarification.

just want to inform everyone that there is a free alternative. it's similar to softick card export that it turns your device into a plug-and-play card reader. it's called wm5torage (yes, the number '5' is the letter 'S')
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45411&highlight=wm5torage
it does not have the system tray icon that enables you to switch between activesync and export mode, but rather you open the app in your accessories folder and activate/deactivate it from there.
but hey, it's free and it works

Have you tried the USB cable which comes with the device? Some of the mini-USB are not fully compatible with the ext-USB of the herald

Do you have a Memorycard?
If so try,
Pop out and connect to pc.
And if that doesnt work pop your card back in and Try the WM5 Storage Program... Activate it And see if it reconizes in that way.

Okey then Good luck. Any Questions ask Love to help

Is someone working on this?

According to this text extracted from an interesting review of the Touch Diamond (http://www.pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=reviews&id=1077&p=1)
"By default, when you plug the Diamond into your computer with the USB cable, it asks you if you want to use ActiveSync or connect as a Disk Drive. If you choose "Disk Drive," the 4GB of Internal Storage will show up on your computer as a regular USB external hard drive or memory stick. That way you can copy/transfer/open files to your heart's content without having to install ActiveSync and without even needing to use a Windows PC (you can use a Mac or Linux machine instead)."
My question is... Someone is working on porting this functionality to other devices?
I know that there are already alternatives such as WM5torage or CardExport. But the option in the Touch Diamond seems to have interesting details.
...Greetings!! ;-)

New Wm 6.1 roms have this feature....
Just use USBtoHD function.....

The rom you mention comes with WM5Torage 1.8... It does not seem very logical if the system itself has this function.
I'm not sure that we are talking about the same thing.

USBtoHD in diamond is made specialy for a flash (nand) part and it's not working at the moment with the sd-cards.

Have you any information on where to touch the reg.
It would be great to mount a CAB with everything needed to run this on Kaiser, Touch Cruise,...

Total Commander
I always use Total Commander which you can download here: http://www.techspot.com/downloads/301-total-commander.html
with the "wince-plugin" which you can download here: http://ghisler.fileburst.com/fsplugins/wincefs.zip
Connect your device with ActiveSync or WMDC and your device (WM5 and WM6) will appear in your network environment.

OK... That is a good way to access the file system of our PDA's. But there are many different reasons that make it more useful to be able to use it as a pendrive.
But thanks for your help 'Frepke'.

PocketLoox N100 ServiceMode

hi everyone...I have a Fujitsu Siemens Pocket LOOX N100 that runs on wm5.I wonder if somebody knows a way to get it into service mode because I want to replace the GPS software that comes with the unit, not only because the maps are way out of date, but because the don't have a map for my country. I would like to install iGo because I have it on another GPS and I love it...
Thanks in advance...

Loox N100 does not run WM 5.1 but WinCE 5.0
To access the device you need to enable ActiveSync und the device.
I join two CAB files in order to enable or disable ActiveSync.
Just rename the file you need to MN6-update.cab and put in root of miniSD card (save original one first) and reset device.
After that you can access the device via ActiveSync and install whichever software you like.
If you want to enable ActiveSync and start on a clean desktop you should use the CAB file attached.
In there you have
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
"Launch50"="explorer.exe"

first of all I want to thank you Sabo, I'm really looking forward to get back from my trip and test those cabs...
but first let me see if I got it wright:
1.the loox_n100_enable...zip are the files to enable/disable the activesync, but would I have access to the WM menus??I ask this because the N100 starts in a kiosk mode
2.the MN6_update.cab - is going to start the N100 in explorer mode not kiosk??

I have a Loox n110 running TT6 and I got all my hacking info from here . It's a very long thread going back 3 years but it has everything you need to know. I installed the iLooks desktop starting off with the Active Sync cab trick as mentioned to access WinCe.
Hope you find it useful.

hi..thank you very much guys for all the help...until now I wanted to sell the n100 but now I'm again very happyyyy, I can barelly wait to start experimenting...

Forgot to mention that with a Mini SD to Micro SD adapter I can run a 16gb memory card on it so you can really load it up - no wifi though.

Don't sell this fine piece of hardware.
Where els do you find a PND with removable battery which is this small and where you can disable static navigation in order to use it easily for geocaching or other things.

My mistake sorry although the system recognises the capacity of the 16gb card when I actually browse the folders not all files are showing. I forgot this as I don't use this card usually in the Loox.
It does recognise all files on my 8gb microSDHC card, however. My built in driver is "SDHC_SC2410.dll". I haven't installed any other drivers myself.
Mine is the Loox n110 with the built in flash drive of 2gb using driver "FLASHDRV.dll". Not that it would affect the reading of the SDHC memory.
Hope that answers your question.

Hello all, I know it is a very very old topic !
But I found in my father's place this old Loox N100 piece of tech and I was trying to do some stuff with it.
I managed to access Windows CE 5 thanks to those CAB file provided about this topic.
But then I can't install or modify anything.
Can someone help me to update the maps of the GPS or install a more recent one please?
I have been searching for hours on internet but I can't find how to do. I don't understand the use of ActiveSync neither. My PC is running on Windows 11.
I tried to copy some exe or cab file to the Mini SD card, but when I want to install them from the device, I have an error "xxx is not a valid windows CE setup file"
Anybody could help me achieve something with this old tech?
Thanks a lot and sorry for the old post.
BTW: Since I used the CAB file above, I always boot on Windows CE first and also the USB connection to the PC doesn't open the SD Card anymore. I tried to use the "disable activesync" CAB file above, but it continues to boot on Windows CE and USB connection still not work.

Anyone with knowledge of this old tech can help me figure out a few things ?
At least how to revert it back to normal haha
Thanks
