Hi guys i have t-mobile touch pro 2 with original rom and tmobile tp2 coming with pre installed google maps and when i check the version it was an old version and when i go to on my opera browser and type m.google.com/maps for downloading the new Google maps its giving me an and its saying on webpage (( sorry Google maps application dose not work on your Touch HD )) now i want to know are you guys have same issue ? is there anyway i can upgrade my Google map of my phone ? please guys help me out.
thank you
Yep, I also have this problem when attemptimg to update the version of google maps as well. I was under the impression that they have not created a version for the TP2 since it is so new to the US, but have no idea.
Google Maps
Which version of Google Maps are you trying to upgrade to? i just went through the IE browser and downloaded an update to Google Map to version 3.2.1 it was a version 2.2 something?
i updated to 3.2.1 no problem at all.
However, check the bing search application. I almost hate to say it, but it really is excellent and does voice recognitions as well!
I used Opera to attempt to update from 2.2 to 3.2.1. I also have a T-mobile branded TP2. Another weird things I have read is that the T-Mobile TPS is not called the Rhodium but the Tungsten. I am curious if this has something to do with it. I will attempt to update using IE instead of Opera to see if this resolves the issue.
EDIT: I just updated to version 3.2.1 using Internet Explorer instead of Opera and it worked perfectly. If Swagger did not state he used IE I would never have thought of this. Thanks!

don't pay attention to this stupid stuff. Its the Rhodium. Look on the inside of your battery compartment & it says Rhod230 or something like that.

I read that google maps are included on this- can anyone tell me if they are cacheable or do you have to DL them each time you use them? I can imagine data charges skyrocketing if they dont.....
maybe i will just stick tomtom on it.....
Once the data is downloaded initially, it is then cached. However, when you zoom in or out, it has to refresh and that is downloaded as well. But once you have it, it's saved.
can i do this from a wifi connection at home (free)?
Sorry, Google Maps does insist on an active internet connection when you try and run it, so that it can download as required. I doubt there's a way to spoof it. You're probably better off getting TomTom or iGo or something.

Yes you can....am doing with my diamond!
Google Maps? Where to find...
I also have my HD now for about a week now, and searched for Google just to try it out. However, I still haven't found it anywere; nor on on CD, neither on my HD (which they direct you to from the manual; Start - Programs - Google Maps). Are there different versions going round with or without it? I read somewhere that another dutch man had it on his one....

It's a lot easier to go directly to www.google.com/gmm...
By the way, it was not installed on mine (WWE version, bought in Switzerland)
its on the programs page, middle slot, top row.
@Rolud: Thanks for the link! Going to try it out (although I read that TT is better to use though...).
@indup: I tried both from Touch3D programs, all programs and from WM programs section, all were not showing up Google... But I've installed it now via the link of Rolud.
I guess there are different models out then; with and without Google Maps pre-installed. Would like to know more differences between them actually...

I hope its finally possible to get GPS working! I tried a lot of different versions of google Maps on my Hermes with external bluetooth GPS Keychain 2000, I never succeed to get it work. It realy s*cks!
Maybe the UK version has Google Maps, but the Dutch version doesn't? And that other person you mentioned had one that wasn't from Holland?
The other Dutch person also have an WWE version, just like me (don't know who exactly, but just read it somewhere here at another tread which I cannot find anymore due to the many treads and pages there are from HD users... ).
But I got it installed now, and at the HD it is working with GPS without any problems. It even got a good GPS signal although I'm in my room and it was very well positioned (2 to 3 meters difference)!
It also looks great on the screen of the HD
Some versions don't have Google Maps preinstalled.
Was looking at the HD at a shop the other day and there was no Google Maps on it, and the manual says
10.1 Google Maps (Available by Country)

My Belgian bought WWE version with firmware 401 didn't have Google Maps, but then I flashed it with the latest WWE firmware 405 release (made after the date I received mine apparanty) and that one did have google maps by default.
All the other european language ones I've seen so far all have the 401 level of firmware.
So with the ones delivered from now on, there might be Google maps installed with non WWE devices that have a 405 level firmware on them.
I bought mine today, and it has GMM preinstalled on it.
Mine didn't have GM preinstalled either
UK version bought in Belgium
ROM version: 1.14.401.3 (22273) WWE
It was not pre-installed on my HTC Touch HD. I could not follow the link win Opera. I used IE to download Google Maps and install. Hopefully it detected the correct version.
Much better getting Tomtom. If you're using google maps, with gps and 3G hard at work, you're gobbling the battery something insane.
I'm more curious to how to get GM as a tab like Manila2D had.
Can some one point me into a direction that will allow me to customize the HD to make google maps a tab like in Manila2D?
I found a customizer with a search and installed it. HOwever, when I launched, I got an error that saying that the customizer uses a newer compactframe network. I thought this came with the newer ones?
Anyway, I tried searching the forum for help on the google map tab it I cant fine anything.
Thanks advance
BTW....please ignore the avatar and the Bottom "Device" .......I do have a Touch HD. Just havent update my id as of yet.

all i have seen on this topic (not specifically google maps) is that there is currently no way to run an app inside a tab. Not sure if there has been any progress made on it but last I heard it was deemed impossible for now. Not sure what manilla 2d google maps you are talking about though. Maybe you can share a link to some info on it?
Thanks Mallman. I will find that thread and link it here. In the Polaris forum, I think it was under udk syrius thread, someone posted a link to the Manilla2D customizer. from there someone added to the post by instructing to move the googlemaps.exe to the windows directory so the customizer can register the new googlemaps tabs.
So thats the reason why asked if it was possible with Manilla3d.
Thanks again for your post. I thought it was possible by now.

Download the latest CF 3.5 on Microsoft website
Its not installed on the HD by default, I had to install it myself in order to make some applications run
Anyone managed this yet?
Anyone know if the TTN7.910.9185.cab will work on out Titans? I'm a little leery about installing it as I've got the prior version working well and don't want to bork anything by trying the install.
Grabbed the file from here:
http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=13032
Remember, this file is legit as provided in ROM with the TP but posting / talking about maps or voices is warez so isn't kosher!
Thanks in advance if anyone is willing to give it a go!
This version is made for another device and tells you so when trying to install on a Mogul. prior tt7 install otherwise intact.
Thanks for trying... Oh well. I wanted to upgrade my maps by BUYING (not cracking) the newest ones but on some other forums they mentioned a problem with the build I'm using (using 7.450 (9029) build with 720.1803 USA and Canada maps) not allowing the latest maps to be used.
If anyone knows for sure how to purchase the latest maps for this build (like what TomTom Home to use and what maps to purchace) I'd greatly appreciate it.

here is the link you need to buy the maps to run on this tt7 cab
ps....that cab is for the touch diamond.
http://www.tomtom.com/products/maps/select.php?D=1038&Language=1&P=5703
Thanks as well Liamhere. Unfortunately I need the USA and Canada maps and the link only give UK / Europe / Asia maps.
I have TT Home 1.5 installed and it does give me an option of purchasing the latest maps for the USA. I'm a bit afraid of committing the $70 on purchasing the map as one or two threads talk about needing to upgrade to the latest TT home (2.5 I think) as when I install that version, it doesn't find my Titan.
Does anyone know if the 1.5 version of TT Home will install the latest USA and Canada maps to the Titan if I purchase them?
works for me
7.910 runs fine on my mogul - am using the USA_CANADA 815.2022 map with it.
I know it was developed for the Diamond so my cab version may have been modified to work on non-Diamond. I don't use TTS but the voice does prompt me at turns.

...so where can we find the latest TTN7 cab for Titan?

Great news, Muledeer, can you post a link to the 7.910 cab and if not point us to where you got it? Oh, Happy New Year!
I own the older TT5 maps. Anyone know if the newer interface works with those old maps?

From what I understand, no. Only Navigator 7 and 8 maps will work with the Diamond cab for the mogul.

Update: Found the cab (google is your friend), installed, ran fine, but TomTom Home 2.5 still can't see my XV6800 meaning I can't legally buy new maps. I even tried TT Home 1.5 and while it could see my poi's it couldn't see my maps or my device (but it did tell me I had a Titan attached, how odd). So......
Unless someone knows how to get TomTom Home 2.5 to see our Moguls, this is a fools errand if you want to stay legal.
/rant
If TomTom wants to stop rampant piracy, they should release Navigator 7/8 for PPC w/o crippling TT Home by locking out all but a few HTC devices!
Oh, please don't ask where I got the cab or files as it will break the TOS of this forum and ultimate goal was to stay legal!
Hi
I bet 90% of people looking at the title of this thread haven't a clue what this site is!
wap.fantasy.premierleague.com
Anyway if anyone has a fantasy premier league team set up could they go to this website and see if they can log in. Just in case you don't trust the site you can go to fantasy.premierleague.com on a normal browser first to see its a legit site.
When I was running the ROM in my signature I had no problem logging in to this site but now since I updated to CT's Version 6.4 HD I can't log in. It does have a newer version of Opera and I was wondering if that could be the problem.
I've checked on a Nokia and the site is not down but I don't know anyone else with a Diamond.
Any help or advice greatly appreciated.
can anyone try this for me?
Hey I use this site on my diamond but its workin fine for me.
I'm just using the original ignito stock rom and older version of Opera
Is there any XDA fantasy premier league already made for 09/10?
it doesnt work for me, im using rom in my sig
yeah it won't work for me on any ROM
I think its an Opera issue as it used to work on my very old stock ROM.
I use internet explorer now with the home page set as wap.fantasy.premierleague.com to access the site.
That's the best workaround I could come up with

i also dont have a solution for this.
its doing the same thing for my diamond2 as well.
Here is a cab for 6.0/6.1 users for WM Marketplace or WM6.5 if its not installed in rom. I made it from 23053 skymarket oem pkg. Its for WWE only and only for devices that have a bootlauncher (IE no apache.) Let me know if it doesn't work on stock roms as its not signed as I'm not sure if signature is required but it will run on cooked roms with full kernel trust enabled.
Edit from reports it seems to run on stock roms too
Some reports that it errors if IE isn't default browser also.
Have they taken the site down? I keep getting a "Marketplace could not connect because the server is unavailable" message.

I also have that error.
Probably a trail run for the big launch tomorrow
Marketplace has been closed today from 3 PM. I think they will open it with many apps included!
I just tried it using the app in my ROM.. It downloaded a new version, and connected to the Marketplace, but there's only about a dozen apps online atm, and almost no free ones...
Hey, thanks! Works perfectly for me in the UK with my cooked 6.5 ROM!
I can admire my app online now!
Btw, it has a serious flaw. It doesnt require a PIN when purchasing something, thus anybody that may get his hands on your phone may start charging you as he likes.
Thanks a lot for this app, I don't have it on my 6.1 ROM. I'll give it a try tomorrow
Hi I have the ROM "Valkyrie XPERIO" (the latest version).
I have installed the CAB and when I click on it I get the message:
"Windows Marketplace for Mobile cannot connect. There may be a problem with the Marketplace service right now. Check your internet connection and try again later."
I know the internet connection is fine, I didn't have marketplace built into the ROM so just wondered if someone has seen this error message?
Works good on HTC Raphael with official 6.1 ROM, but very poor choice of apps for now.
Works fine on HTC Touch running NFSfan's v14 ROM. Thanks man!

Hi,
After download the cab and install it, when I launch the program, 3G is activating, but nothing else on my screen.
I'm on WM 6.1 Rom Mania Adrenaline final FRE.
ok mine ended up working in the end, just took a few attempts to connect the first time. Works a treat now
And yeah I saw the £10 calculator!! WTF?! Just wondering if we'll see anything like BING or Skype on here?
marketplace is opened from now
office mobile price is 29$. i don't know why but i think it free

As he said in post #1, you may make IE your default browser and not Opera.

It's been open since at least yesterday.
I have IE default browser, I use a HTC Touch Elfin with a Spanish ROM
I have installed Marketplace in the main memory.
Installed correctly but when i press the shorcut in programs, nothing appears...

Yeah, I saw that. You have to wonder what the hell the devs of that have been smoking. £10 for a calculator? <bleep> off!
Not impressed with the startup so far though.. Very small selection of titles (I count 39 apps in total. 39!!), and almost NO free stuff, not even trial versions!
Is there a chance to have it working with Opera as browser ? Today all cooked ROM are using Opera instead of IE...
