Hi does anyone know if you can use TomTom7 on the HTC touch 3g, thanks for your time.
Nick
Yes.
Loaded it on sons 6 months ago no problems.
Only problem you need to install No Data and modify settings as it tries to log on to Orange, well it did on his.
Also running TT7 on my Touch 3G..
It works OK, doesn't lock up HOWEVER.. There is a fair lag between where you are and where it shows you on the map.. It may only be 1/2 a second but you can travel a long way in that time. Very anoying if you are trying to find your way through a city with a lot of turns..
I just use mine now as a backup otherwise I use a TT XL IQ live... (mind you even that has locked up a couple of times in a 6 weeks I've had it !!!)

Yes it works. I, however, use an external bluetooth GPS reciever thus avoiding the slow satellite 'hunting' you get with the built in one on startup. As for lag, not noticed it, must be the external GPS working better.
Tomtom 7

I try TT7 on my T3238 but doesn't work properly. Few minutes works OK, sometimes it jam. I change TT -> iGO8. It works OK. I have new maps of EU and works great! Good luck!
Hi,
Loaded TT 7.9 onto Jade WM6.1 Pro.
everything works fine but I must agree with Wolves4Ever, using an EXT. GPS
brings better results.
Hello all
I installed TT7 v7.450.9028 with France map v720.1802 on my Jade (HTC official rom).
A-GPS is off, TT7 works but I have the same pb as I it is not smooth (1 image per 0.5 second). I have also route66 navigate 7 -> it is very smooth !
As a consequence, the internal gps is not for me the limitant factor
I will try the last TT7 lolite version, but today is there some parameters I can change to improve the TT7 speed ?
Thanks !
Ok so I made a test today > everything is fine !!! It works great
I have the Lolite version v7.916 with the same map, I removed all the POIs vision on the map, it is very smooth.

Navigon Mobile Navigator 5.0 and 5.1 both works like charm on JasJar and for me it is much better than TomTom already. No problematic installations, works from SD straight ahead, maps are not splitted (the whole Europe is one file), you do not need to switch crossing the borders.
The maps source is better (maps are more accurate than TomTom ones).
I, definitely, recommend it.

Hi surinamer,
I do not think there are is anything special in Navigon config (i use BT GPS receiver).
I've installed Navigon completely and huge European map (~950Mb) to SD. I beleive you need to look at your general WM power and backlit
settings.
Forgot to mention - Navigon eats a lot of RAM - ~20-25Mb. So, free RAM as much as you can.
Regards,
baudy.
Hi Baudy2,
after reading your post I've installed on my xda exec Navigon 5, everything is ok with the installation,BT is automatically found, the only trouble is that when I try to navigate to a place that is about 3-4 Km from me, everything's ok,but if I'll try to set up a trip of more than 5Km the navigator go crazy and told me that I 've reach my destination after just 200 meters.
I've tried to free up as much RAM asi can, but with no results.
Any idea???
Sounds like a real threat for TomTom... :lol: :lol:
And sorry guys but an idea of installing a whole europe map as an only option is pretty riddiculous for me.
950MB needed even If I never go out of London :roll: .
Have an unique map it's just an option and if you travel all over Europe and drive for more than 1200Km in one day is wellcome...
The real problem is that I've tried TT5 and I've problem with maps not up to date,BT interference with my handsfree...
I try with Navigon and still have troubles....
Is there any software house who is able to provide a software that really works??????
Hi All,
Which of these navigation services offer the best UK traffic information ?
TomTom Traffic uses data from ITIS holdings which generates very accurate traffic flow data... I swear by it!

You've forgot to pay for the Navigon software.
There is no Navigon 5.1 cracked. Only 5.0. So, downgrade to 5.0. It works like charm.
I've installed tha last ship ROM from DOPODAsia and sometimes my TomTom 6.02 will not respond to the touchscreen. I've to minimize it and then re-open in full screen and it will return to work.
mmmm... this rom is not very perfect IMHO
Tomtom 6.030
Hello
I have the same probleme with tomtom 6.030 and 6.010, 6.020 and 6.100
Perhaps htc rom will be corrige this probleme.
@++
on my side I have also tomtom 6
I have also a freeze but only during few seconds and only at the start of tomtom (during the 1st minute of usage of tomtom)
But for the moment I use tomtom without GPS ... just waiting for a new ROM
I also experienced these freezes with TomTom 6 and the latest official dopod image. So I downgraded to the latest test version which doesn't have this problem. Have quick fixes and both 6.02 and 6.03 are working fine. The only difference i noticed after installing 6.03 is that TomTom added a new GPS device called "built in gps receiver" which is now automatically selected. No probs here
Config u are using longfellow

5) if so, what GPS program port are you using in gps icon in settings ?

Hello, initially had the latest test version of Dopod installed with TomTom 6.02 as GPS receiver I had chosen "other bluetooth receiver" and I used com 9 for this device in the settings ( just tapped with stylus on the black line in the gps settings, secon option) first fix took appr 6 min. Everthing went fine no freezes etc. I didnot have the gps reg hack nor did I have the gps icon in my settings. Everything went ok. After that I installed the official rom on monday just after its release. Installed the same TT6.02 same config. Then I became freezes too. So I installed 6.03 after that (on orig rom) with the settings for built in GPS receiver which is chosen automatically on Trinity btw. Same problems.
Which made me decide to go back to latest test rom, here i have now running TT6.03 which automatically puts the built in GPS receiver on COM9 & GPD1 (saw that after I performed the reg hack to get the GPS icon in my settings/access). Mostly i have the initial fix within 1 min! And absolutely NO freezes or slowing down in TT which I suffered with the official rom. So I suspect this official rom of some bugs because all other conditions in which i installed were the same.
Hope this will help. Btw I have a HTC P3600.
I have, on all occasions in which you can choose, installed TomTom6 on 1 GB minisdcard, nothing in PDA mem! Noticed that TT6.03 autom sets baudrate at 115200, but you can only see that after you perform the reg hack.
Just checked my rom that I use now, and see that it is not the latest version but it is version RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.23.707.2_6275_1.29.00.11_108_Test.exe.
Today i think i found out why my tom tom 6.030 sometimes hangs (if i quit and reenter tt everything works fine again).
So today I reinstalled my device at the office and also tomtom...
Came home from work and tt did not block any more...
Happy i transferred the radars to my device...
This evening i tested once again and it blocked again....
deleted my radars and warnings and it didn't block any more...
anyone who has the "application hanginging" problem: have u installed the radars...?
will do more testing the next days?

You may tried another memory card, cos i had the same problem with another device before ( also using tomtom 6, ) , then i just use another memory card, it work..
so after more tests I can definitely say that when I enable the poi and the warnings my Tomtom blocks....
if I disable them everything works fine....
I also tried with another minisdcard and another map...
the only thing I'm thinking of is that the radar poi are in some way corrupt?
just to throw another theory into the mix.....
I've been using tt6.01 on the original HTC wwe rom and now the lastest gps enabled rom, never had a lockup. Was just using the UK map.
Yesterday installed the complete western europe map, now get lockups when using this map. Switch back to UK and it's fine again.
I have also this problem. I press the green button, phone opens, i close it with my stylus.
After that TOM² opens, en it all works fine.
i've noticed the same like DREWY.
the last weeks i used only my germany-map. tomtom freezes only one time.
now i updated my tomtom an installed the germany-swiss-austria map.
now tomtom locks up very often.
my theory:
the maps are to big, an the trinity/tomtom can not handle this big maps.
More info about this "freezing" problem...
I've updated my spanish Trinity with the new/cooked english ROM... WITHOUT any problem working with TomTom 6.03 (radars activated, etc) using external (Bluetooth) GPS.
Working with the internal GPS... and with two miniSD different... a LOT of problems. It's impossible to run properly for more than 10 minutes. Not any problem using OZI, for example with any GPS (Bluetooth or the Internal one).
Somebody has tested it TomTom+internal GPS working with the french ROM (Orange one)?
Hello,
I use french Orange ROM on SPV M700 with internal GPS + TT6.100, the whole works fine since one month.
I use Western Europe map with traffic info activated.
Thank you Rahan for the info
I've just test my "New" french Trinity and NOW I don't have any problem with TomTom and the internal GPS
Probably, there was an instalation problem in my previous "english" Trinity. I'm going to restart from the beginning converting my "French" P3600 to an "english" one
---
The problem is the cooked ROM..because after installing it... TomTom DOESN'T WORK properly It works with Bluetooth GPS and with the Orange/french ROM (internal and external GPS)...but with this ROM (and with the GPS fix, etc)... NOT
Hi there I recently upgraded my blue angel to WM6, And ever since TomTom Navigator 6 has been running so slow its unusable. Every time I press anything I have to wait between 40-60 secs before it executes the press. Everything else apart from TOMTOM runs fine and zippy. Is there a patch or tweak to give me the speed back.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
I have tried both Tomtom 5 and Tomtom 6 on thisd WM6 ROM and have no problems at all. It runs very fast. The problem is with your machine.
Just one tip: TomTom is really ****ty app and sometimes have such odd delays because of searching for GPS. Turn GPS function off (offline mode or whatever is the name) or connect the GPS before starting TT. It helps. This is the only aplication I know that has this king of problem.
On WM5, the solution to TomTom slow down was to make sure the phone radio was turned on before launching TomTom. For some reason Tomtom freezes up if you start it when the phone radio is off.
thank you Fredrick_Fredrickson. Worked a treat . Thank you everyone else that took the time to read and reply.
Have exactly the same problem, but my phone is always turned one. Maybe someone got some more ideas?
U pleople are legends
Thanks for all the help in this forum
Very late arrival to this thread, but just wanted to say a big thanks to Fredrick_Fredrickson for that advice, which works great - had the slow/unusable Tomtom bug across different versions of TT Navigator and on different roms - just turned the phone radio on and it suddenly works perfectly. So glad I found this thread!
I had similar issues with tomtom after upgrading to wm6.1, make sure your beam is turned off which should help, as it uses one od the avaliable com ports, My problem resolved by moving on to a different version of TomTom as the one i had was just so glitchy when BA was running on battery power,
i couldn't install tomtom7 on explode 6.1 rom.
any solution?
AFAIR there is no official TT7 yet - www.tomtom.com shows no such product.
Yes, its a HTC Diamond rip one, but no working maps on that. (I don't know if will install on BA, didn't tested)
It doesn't work on most PDAs other than Diamond, so let's just wait a moment. Hermes version slowly surfaces, but still mostly problems are reported.
tt7 is floating about on the net and working fine on all my devices
Hello!
http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthread.php?t=131381
Have a nice Day!
Working
Working fine on mine with Benelux and Western Europe 7 maps
TomTom 7 very slow to start
I have TT7 working fine on my Orange SPV M2000 running on the explode 6.11 rom.
However, I do have a problem.
TT7 takes around 3½ minuets to start for the first time.
Strangely when TT7 has been turned off and the BA left on, starting TT7 the next time only takes 8 to 12 seconds.
TT7 runs from the device and the 715 map on SD.
I also have a problem with WiFi and phone, both can be very difficult to start.
Anyone else have these problems and can someone suggest a remedy.
Has anybody have more than one GPS APP installed on there HTC HD2 phone,just wondering if there was any problems with ports an if you need a port spliter,i have Tomtom7 installed and want to install Twonav pocket.
Has any one had problems with this
Thanks
I've been using with no problems both tomtom and navicomputer at the same time with no problems at all, while tomtom navigated, navicomputer saved the track.
I also tried nonigpsplot at the same time with navicomputer... never tried all three at the same time though but I think they will just work
I have 6 apps installed calling for GPS and no single problem with each of them
i got tomtom and navigon on my hd2
working perfectly
Igo8, Navigon, TomTom and some "smaller" GPS-Progs
Thanks guys for your info i will go ahead and put more GPS apps on my phone now thats great to hear,i asked because i had a mio moov 300 unlocked and had problems with port shareing two different apps but it sounds like the HTC HD2 can handle it.
Thanks again
