co pilot download - HD2 General

hi -
i am a big fan of copilot 8 which comes on the hd2, i have started trying out some of the new custom roms and some of them have removed the copilot program. i checked the alk site but don't see where to download it without buying it and i already have a license which i bought a while ago.
can anyone tell me where i can download the .cab file or something like that to instal it to my new custom rom?
thanks!!

I'm also interested in this. I've not got a custom ROM on mine, but have been tempted, so i asked CoPilot support about it. Don't hold your breath on me getting a reply though, as it took 2 weeks for them to get back to me with my last question!
Hopefully, someone on here will be able to point us at a trial download, cos I can't find one anywhere!

How about flashing a stock rom, copying the copilot folder (and other relevant files?) to sd card and then go back to the custom roms...

That's not a guaranteed method. There are most likely files in unexpected locations and registry entries that you wouldn't immediately find. It's worth trying though, but I wouldn't expect it to work completely.

Co Pilot make a great product, in my opinion; however their support, or should I say their speed in reacting to customer queries, leaves a lot to be desired.
I am waiting for a response from them to a query I logged over 2 weeks ago (granted we have had Xmas in between) but I'm not expecting to hear from them until mid January at the earliest.
WB

when I first purchased it I got a download link for a cab and the maps in an email from ALK.
Don't you have that?
Not going to share the cab as it appears to already have my reg number inside it (or at least it's already filled in).
as a secondary route you can back up and restore the programfiles for copilot.
Use Copilot central on your PC on a stock rom to back up, and it will restore fine on your new one..
I've tried this a few times now.

No - it was installed on the device when I got it and I've never had a download link. There was also a bit of literature in the box about CoPilot, and that said that it was pre-installed.

Nice one - I'll give that a go later and see if it works. If it does, then that's the answer.

Now we wait........................
.....................For a cracked version. :wink:
I wonder what the upgrade price wil be.....
I doubt it will be cheap.. Upgrade price from navigator 4 to Navigator 5 was almost as much as buying all over again. So I went from my legit Nav4 to 'Ahem' liberated Navigator 5

I use iguidance 3.0 and many of these features are already in it. I find it extremely usable and maps are nice and small. Best feature... TCPMP+voice guide simply lowers the volume of the music - says the direction and returns to playing at normal level.

do you have any issues with Iguidance V3 on the wizard? i am currently using v2, i went and uninstalled then installed v3 and loaded new maps, however it will only work in landscape mode, if i close the keyboard to run this in portrait mode then it shuts down. Same thing if i just try to run it after a reboot in portrait mode...
This thread is about TomTom v6 not about iguidance or any other navigationsoftware, let's keep this thread alive for Tommy
No need for extra post regarding other software, there will be alot of posts coming to us for the next few day's, weeks or even months 8)

Has anyone successfully managed to get the main files from "Oxyshare" on this page??
Look down the page at what looks like a row of Google Adwords adverts...
The third one of these should say something about downloading the file.
It's not easy to spot!!

They're currently missing a link to the Storage Card folders, so it won't work properly just yet.

The link is there look closer - its about 3rd or 4th in the series.
Jah, but the .rar file contains 1x .exe file, not the folders.
The storage folders are in the t6.rar file, not the tt6.rar file.
My friend HDJ :roll: tells me this works fine on the Wizard
has anyone got this downloaded yet? Tried it?
If so can they PM me please.

I've don't think there's a T-Mobile UK ROM at the moment - you can only buy the TP2 on T-Mobile through a 3rd-party company right now as T-Mobile don't sell it over here yet.
Many thanks for looking into it, I'd really appreciate a UK version.

I installed your my account cab and it reads "Unable to retrieve account info".
I uninstalled, soft reset and reinstalled it to try again but it does not work
I can't think of anything why it would not work.
Thinking........
Does the My Account program use the SIM card to call T-Mobile? Maybe something is missing from my SIM.....like a number??? My SIM card has the #646# (Check my minutes) and (check text usage)... Does the My Account use that?
Thanks for your time and help! I just wished it would work.

No problem,
One way to find out.. If its your SIM or not... Flash to another ROM and see if MyAccount works.. Use any one, mine or his there basically the same(i extracted mines from the dump of my phone).... Just my taxi was a little faster

HD2 and TomTom 7 - problem installing

Ok I've finally taken the plunge and just received my new HD2 from T-Mobile. Everthing works ok and even to a cynic like myself it is one impressive machine but with one issue. I can't install TomTom 7.
As soon as it tries to auto config it displays the message:
"Your device is not compatible with this version of TomTom NAVIGATOR!"
(Their message - not my typing...)
Any ideas? It worked ok my Touch HD running a 6.5 ROM from Miri and I've noticed others appear to have it working. The HD2 is running OS version 21864.5.0.81, ROM version 1.43.110.2 WWE and radio is 2.04.50.22_2 if that helps.
Any assistance greatly appreciated of course!
Is true!
If you go in tomtom device compatible web page you see that HD2 isn't copatible, I have sent an email ant tomtom said me that you must see this page when change you can download a new version compatible.
P.S: There is a version that work with Hd2 but you must delte 2 dll and in tomtomhome hd2 is not recognize
While it is true that Version 7 isn't supported, it dose still work well with a couple of exceptions.
1. It can be done by transfering the CAB file to the device and then installing it manualy, but not through the ActiveSync installer.
2. The version I had for my Orbit2 KILLED the bluetooth on the HD2. It's a fairly easy thing to rectify, just need to delete the file \Windows\BtSdkCE30.dll and then Reset the HD2, but it caused a few headaches.
3. I've read that some people reccomend the 7.91 version of tom tom, but that version 7.45 works well also.

Cheers but it didn't work.. Yes I tried running the cab file manually from the 2577 folder but still it came back with the same message. I am using version 7.91 as well.. Very frustrating as I use the Sat Nav a lot!

Actually just found that link as you posted. I've managed to get it installed but now it's asking for my map activation code which at the moment I can't find in my filing system....
Thanks for the help/link anyway!
I have Tomtom 7 working try doing a search for TomTom_Navigator_7.916.9189_VGA.
Tony, had the same problem, it's possible to get the software installed using a cab file but then you can't activate your purchased map files without hooking the device up to TomTom Home.
It's sadly a case of waiting for TomTom to officially support the HD2 at which point an update for TomTom Home should allow us to connect and install.
I tried emailing them again today for an update but they just said keep watching -> http://www.tomtom.com/products/section.php?ID=898&Section=709&Lid=1&Category=2
Im using ttn7.915.9196.vga_black.cab which is working fine for me on mine.
Currently using 7.916-9189 vga-black.cab with ukroi 835-2421
had to rename the 2 bt.dll's by adding old to the end of them using resco file explorer and then used BsB Tweaks to get it to auto rotate..
some dudes report issues with the radio using this method but as I dont use headphones (only bluetooth) I haven't even checked to see if the radio works. Now researching/downloading other sat nav applications and waiting for my 16gb card to come so I can try some others out...rapidly running out of room on the stock 2gb card
@EssexboyRacer.
Are you able to connect to TomTom Home?
If not, how did you activate your map file(s) please?

As a stop gap I spent ages trying to get the "ttn7.915.9196.vga_black.cab" route working but I've finally cracked it tonight. At least I now have it up and running until the "official" way is available...

Copilot 8 thinks I am in Africa

Hi I have an issue with Copilot 8 and havent managed to find a thread in here that mentions the issue I have.
I have the following versions
OS 5.2.21869
Manilla 2.5.19211619.0
ROM 1.48.405.2 WWE
Radio 2.05.51.05_2
I replaced the original 2GB SD card with an 8GB, and used the 2gb card in my daughters Nintendo DS, blatting everything on it.
Now I fancy trying Copilot, and whilst I can run the app, I cannot download any maps as it thinks I am in Africa (or only have permission to download those maps).
This is the same for Copilot Central and on the device, if i try to download anything else it just says "Error downloading files", for the African one it gives me a second screen asking me to confirm.
Am I missing something here? Or is it because I deleted the "trial" version maps on my SD card?
I have 15 days left on the trial to fix this :-S
Hope someone has had the same issue??

You need to get in touch with CoPilot support for help with this. They're a bit slow I'm afraid, so don't hold your breath.

Agreed. However I bought CP7 early last year (I think) and it cost me nearly £60! I wrote to them recently asking if I could transfer my licence across rather than pay £26 for a new package when CP7 is perfecly adequate and they refused.
Fair do's I suppose, as they have got to make some money somewhere but disappointed nevertheless. The "get in lane" improvements in CP8 are worth it as I use this system in my car. However seeing that I have not yet had the full benefit out of the package I paid for last year I can't justify the extra expense and then have a whole package lying around doing nothing.
Shame.
WB
I think they are getting confused somewhere!
There is absolutely nothing to prevent you cancelling the license on one device then reactivating it on another one. The only thing they won't do, and this maybe where the confusion arose, is to transfer a license between platforms (WM -> Apple/Andoid and vice versa)
If you still have CPL on the original device, you can go into the Licensing screen and select to deactivate it. This needs an internet connection. Once deactivated, install the program on the new device and go through the online activation. If that doesn't work, complain again to ALK. There is no compulsion to upgrade to relicense the program.
Had the same issue with my trial. CoPilot sent me this link and it says just to copy the copilot folder to the memory card.

That's funny. My CoPilot Central 2.0 thinks I'm in Africa, too. When I used the KML-export function of my GPS-Tracks, that I had no use for, the only coordinates the KML-file contained were two hundred miles off the coast of Ghana in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

Thats the link that got mine working, I still had the ROM version loaded on my HD2.
Now I can see what the product is like, the screenshots look pretty nice. Ive got an inbuilt satnav in the car, but for £26 I'd be tempted to get this as a walking aid.

Same here, I have factory fitted satnav in the car but I got co-pilot after the trial ended, as you say if you just use it as a walking aid, you can't go wrong for £26.

There is absolutely nothing to prevent you cancelling the license on one device then reactivating it on another one.

Neil,
Thanks for the heads up. To be honest ALK make a great product but their Customer Service is diabolical. Rather than spend hours exchanging increasingly meaningless messages with them in that fixed format template format they are so fond of using which is so irritating and tells you absolutely nothing, I simply ditched all the CP8 folders on my device (bar the rom files which I can't move) and installed my paid for CP7.
Saves a whole load of hassle, from my perspective, and it works just fine.

Right anyone got any idea how to make the poxy Copilot Central software think i am in Europe? That still insists i am in Africa.... lord above, one step forward, two steps back and all that!!

Long shot but if you are trying to access CP Central from a PC, why don't you set-up a proxy server or use some other method to "hide" your IP address which might help solve the problem?
I have never done this for this purpose so it's unusual for me to recommend an action I have not tried myself; however if no one else has a better answer and you can't get CP Support to help then might be worth a go?

Got to be worth a try, so i will give it a go.
My mate has the same issue, so its not just me
Let us know how you get on. If it works then this would be a useful tip for others. If it doesn't then they don't have to waste their time on this.

No joy
I have raised the question with the support team, will update post in a month when they reply!! Although to be fair they came back within 2 hours on the Africa thing on the HD2 with the link to the software.

Don't bother with the Copilot support "contact form". It's totally useless, and they'll probably never reply. Instead send a "tweet" to http://twitter.com/copilotsupport/ or http://twitter.com/copilotlive/. That usually gets an answer within 24 hours.

AT LAST!

Well...
Finally took the plunge and shelled out for the HD2!
I trully hope it lives up to my hopes for it.
Can anyone help me out, though. What ROM should I flash on it? I still want Copilot, would like the home screens in landscape also if possible. Any ideas?
Thanks and I look forward to lots of great help from this forum, like I got from this great site for all my other phones! Well done all you guys that work so hard so that dumba** like me can get my phones the way I want them!!!

PS Can you get the navigation panel to work without the car holder? I know, I will search, just thought I'd ask since I was here

I can't help with the other things you request (I'm scared of going away from standard as I'm not confident in all this modification stuff!), but you can look for the NaviPanel.exe progam in the Windows folder of your phone. Click and hold on it, select copy, then navigate from the Windows folder to Windows/Start Menu/Programs and tap the menu soft button, select edit>paste shortcut (and rename if required). This should appear in your Start Menu now. You can the add it to a quick link (it hasn't got an icon though).
ROM 1.66
Rom 1.66 is the ROM to go...
re: the navipanel - bizarrely, mine decided to switch on navipanel by itself when I mounted the phone on one of the cheapo mounting kits from ebay - I've already modded my dashboard for my Garmin, which got power through mini USB (routed the cables behind the dash and out into a cubby) - so instead of pulingl the dash apart again I'm using a mini-to-micro adapter (99p off ebay or something).
My only guess is there's something special about the Garmin lead that tells the HD2 it's getting a little something more than just 12v - and the phone thinks it's the official car kit - because it doesn't happen when I just use the crappy adapter that came with the cheapo mounting kit.
Having said all that, I don't actually like navipanel cos it seems to disable the phone buttons - home key etc - presumably to stop you fiddling with the phone functions when you should be concentrating on the road - but that annoys the wife, who likes to control the music on long journeys...
Thanks
Thanks guys. ROM 1.66 is an HTC ROM right? NOT a custom?

Yes mate. The UK one was released yesterday. (I don't know when the Scottish one will be release though lol)
Cheers
Okay, thanks. I'll track it down. I'll use the UK one till a proper version comes out LOL!
Id love to flash to ROM 1.66. Just is such a hassle getting the phone back to how i had it. Wish it was easier.
Hi,
Why does the HTC web site tell me the ROM update is not for my device?
S/N is correct.
Is there another way to get 1.66

It means you have a carrier locked device, (example tmobile) so the standard HTC webpage wont let you download, you techincally need to wait for your provider to issue an update, ((buut dont hold your breath for tmo and o2,,,))). This has been covered a thousand times, go search for and read up on HSPL in the rom development section
