Navipanel using Garmin - HD2 General

I recently added the Navipanel to the start menu and found that it launches Telenav instead of Garmin. I found some threads using search regarding editing the navipanel but nothing worked for Garmin. That being said these are the settings that i used to get it to launch through NaviPanel.
I have Garmin installed on the SD card and went into my device using file explorer. I then copied the Garmin folder to the Program files folder.
following that i did the following in total commander:
open HKCU>Software>TeleNav
I clicked on AppPath and edited the contents to:
\Program Files\Garmin\Garmin Mobile XT.exe
I then did a soft reset.
This is what happens when using NaviPanel tabs now
Go Home: Asks to enter home address(i did so in Garmin but it still stays the same)
Enter Home Address: opens Garmin
Recent: opens Garmin
Footprints: Opens footprints app (i have no footprints set up, will test)
Navigation: opens Garmin app, i have to double press sometimes
Besides that I only experienced a delay when checking to see if the Telenav app still opens in the Programs section.
*****I am a noob and usually just follow the instructions on this site to mod my windows phones. That being said i got lucky playing with the registry settings and take no responsibility if the above is followed*****

can you tell me how you added the navipanel to the start screen?
Sorry for not being any assistance on your problem.

i used file explorer my device windows folder scroll down to navipanel should be a 249k file hold down until uget an option to copy then scroll up to the start menu folder go in there then select the programs folder then menu, edit, paste once u go back to the start menu it should be there pm me if u need assistance cuz i typed this on my hd2

Bump
Just wanted to see if anyone has tried this and gotten further than me.

Thanks for the tip, works great.
I didn't move Garmin to program files, I just left it on the SD card. I guess the only issue there is to fix is the home button, but no big deal since it launches Garmin anyways. BTW, footprints works fine.

Cool, did the same with mine. Only thing is it doesn't exactly do the FUNCTION that the buttons are suppose to do. I guess anyone that knows a little more about programming might be able to get it. There has to be a more direct path to SEARCH instead of just opening the gps programs main exe.

One more, easier, workarround if you want to open Garmin XT from NaviPanel.
I had CoPilot (on HD2). Install Garmin (I did it on Storage Card).
Then:
1. Find Garmin XT.exe in Program files (on device)
2. Copy it to any TEMP folder on your device.
3. Rename it to copilot.exe
4. Copy it to device\program files\copilot and replace original one (make a copy of original, just in case)
Thats all
All mentioned circumstances will be the same:
"This is what happens when using NaviPanel tabs now
Go Home: Opens Garmin
Recent: opens Garmin
Footprints: Opens footprints app
Navigation: opens Garmin app"

Thanks for the tip, not ideal but better than nothing

navipanel lniking to garmin
Hi Cozhyn,
I tried ur method and its works perfect except 2 glitches.
when you open foot prints or phone they open fine but when u click the back button after opening it the navipanel freezes and gets kind of screwed.I have to soft rest it to get it to normal.
It absolutely runs garmin.
Please let me know if you have any solution for this problem.
thanks
Suri

Hi all, where can I download this file for my HTC HD2
Navipanel ?
thanks a lot
Juan

The problem I have is that I do have Navipanel installed but no Copilot.
I installed Garmin on SD but don't know how to link it to Navipanel.
Navipanel has only phone link activated.
I tried to creat a Copilot folder but nothing happens.

You don't have to use Total Commander (PHM or other regeditors should work), but if you want to use TC you need to navigate to the root directory (hit the "\" in the top right), then look in the "\\plugins" folder, then in "registry"...from there you'll see "HKCU" (shorthand for "HKEY_CURRENT_USER")

Thanks, I have no copoilt, will try to add garmin

Thanx for the clarification.
I can now use TC to To get into HKCU Thank you But i still cant find Tele Nav under software
I do have it installed ANY HELP?

AutoRotate Garmin Mobile XT
Why use NaviPanel at all, Go to the link below.
I posted Garmin Mobile XT Auto Rotate, Besides, Navipanel is useless. Pointless to have two programs open.

Adding Maps to TomTom

Ok - got TomTom on my XDA mini s.
Now - maps.
Added maps as stated here:-
http://www.beyondthetech.com/blogs/kjam/2005/10/surefire-method-of-installing-tomtom.html
do I just add another line to the Current Map file to point to another map directory?
And does then TomTom auto add the maps, if not - how do I choose a different map.
and finally - voices. Can I store these on SD card and if so - where do I amke any config changes
Thanks
Scott
OK, so just how did you get TomTom on there? Did you have to use Activesync? If so, what happens when the thing goes T.U. and you don't have the software on your memory card ? :?:
Used the 5.21 upgrade as that installed via the pc through active sync as not supports WM05, and then followed instructions on the screen. Then patched it.
Used the link above to setup the bluetooth gps and get the map directory setup, and it just seemed to work. I have a BT GPS - BT-77 model.
No issues so far.
Just sussed the voices, there has a to be a voice folder in the root.
Now - just want to know how to add more maps, and how I alter the CurrentMap file

The app would not finnish instalation and cannot be run after (it just would not start, though it appears in PROGRAMMS as if installed... Any advice?
Thanks.
Do you know why there is a search button in the upper bar?

you type postcodes in the CITY box mate
i've got full 7 digit postcodes in uk, BUT not for 2008.4 map only 2008.1
Igo8 will do 7 digit postcode
to get the 7 digit postcode search working in IGO8 do the following
1: download the postcode enabled map from here --> http://rapidshare.com/files/166750423/UnitedKingdom7PPC.rar.
2: after putting it in the map folder in your igo8.content/maps folder start the app
3: when running click find and in the box UNDER United kingdom, the one where you normally put the city put your post code, but (and this is important) you MUST put a space in it, eg DL17 2HR . if you try and put DL172HR you will only get as far as DL172 then it will jump to the 5 digit address.
I have this running on a Touch HD with full postcode search and it works a treat with 3D landscapes, looks very nice.
Have fun

- create in the registry
1. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC and add new key NaviSW
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\NaviSW and add new string value
Value name: MiddleLayerDLL
Value data: NaviSWMiddle_TomTom.dll
- after that take a Soft Reset
All done but when tapping navigate to my pda hangs & I've to soft reset
are theese settings corrects?
Value name: MiddleLayerDLL​Value data: NaviSWMiddle_TomTom.dll​
thanks
enrico
I can confirm that this works - at least it did for me with TT7!
TomTom should already be running in the background for this to work. This is very annoying as who wants TomTom running in the background.

Hi,
Is this true?
As a check I've just performed a soft reset to ensure that nothing is running and then selected the M2D Footprints tab followed by Menu -> Navigate To.
TT7 then fired up (indicated by the TT7 splash screen) before going off to look for a valid satellite signal.
Please correct me if I'm wrong but I think that TT7 wasn't running in the background until the menu selection launched it.
Neil
huh, well, i guess i had something wrong with my setup then.
my tomtom wont's start,
when i select with footprint an image and then Menu -> Navigate To seems that somthing wants to start ( windows loading logo appears ) but after a few seconds all is out of work , i've to reset the phone

what version are you using of tomtom
Hi
I use TomTom versione 7.915 (9196) from IOLITE.
Previous versione work ok (7.910).
Thanks
Daniele
Has anyone managed to get TomTom 7.915 working correctly with any version of Footprints on a Polaris ?
EDIT: OK so it seems TomTom 7.915 just will not work correctly with Footprints. Turns out Tomtom 7.910 DOES WORK perfectly, the only thing you are losing out on is 'navigate > to > photo' in Tomtom 7.915 (but who needs it because that was footprints is for)
I have attached, what should be, the HTC version from Diamond (slightly modified to work with other devices).
EDIT 2: Ok so I cant seem to upload the file. I have saved it to my 4shared here

How can I change TOMTOM to another Navigation software

Hi guys,
I'm living in Vietnam, where TOMTOM doesn't work (no maps). Could you please tell me how to replace TOMTOM by another software as the default navigation service? For example, in Asia, MapKing should be useful more than TOMTOM. Thanks so much!
for me
i want to change that to garmin
celice: It isn't possible for Garmin, look here to find why http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530034
torrentonly thank you very sir ^-^
A little update for this. It actually is possible to use another navigation software, but some important steps must be made.
1) Navigation software must support command line options or have proper SDK (like TomTom or Garmin Mobile XT)
2) navipanel.exe and naviservice.dll must be debugged to find, how is MiddleLayerDLL handled
3) Code a new library, which will handle new navigation software via navipanel
I found some examples with Garmin SDK for visual studio. It looks quite simple and straightforward, but it has one big flaw. Garmin Mobile XT must be running to pass command to it.
Just a note. At this moment, there is no possibility to run other navigation software with NaviPanel.
garmin mobile xt
Garmin Mobile XT works fine for me
In the spanish version, the GPS software by default is CoPilot 7, Can you try it? But i think that there is no maps of there.
Regards!
Hi all.
Small guide for changing the "Navigator" Hardware-key:
1. Delete from folder with current navigator folder all files.
2. Install into this directory new GPS navigator application (or move all files into this folder)
3. Rename *.exe file on previuos exe name
I'm from Russia. I changed Navitel Navigator on GisRussa
You have to do this
HKLM\Software\HTC\NaviSW\
find this key MiddleLayerDLL that have a value NaviSWMiddle_CoPilot.dll
Change it in NaviSWMiddle_TomTom.dll
It works for garmin, too.
You have to substitute garmin to tomtom in the word
Make a soft reset and after garmin will be your default navi for all the applications (footprint, navipanel)
If you cannot find this key, you can create it, I just make it and works perfectly...

TomTom on this phone?

How do I install TomTom on this phone? I have tried to install from a cab file that I used successfully on a Touch Pro but the installation fails on the Touch2 reporting the application as incompatible.
Can you please point to a TomTom cab file that works with WM6.5?
Even better if it is a version where I can activate a free local map as in fact that's all is need on this phone....
Thanks.
There are certain sources that provide QVGA cabs, google is your friend.
The QVGA version easily found googling has problems with WM6.5: it screws the Bluetooth stack.
Ah that explains why my bluetooth isnt working anymore, well Navigation is more useful then bluetooth for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4898541&postcount=8
Do this and both bluetooth and tomtom will work.
i didn't have a problem with tomtom 7 installing on the htc touch 2 aka mega.
I even got it working with my external gps. so bluetooth doesn't stop working with my cellphone. I will try tomtom 7 + bluetooth external GPS + Bluetooth earphone this evening to test if even that will work
After installing TT7 just delete these 2 files BtSdkCE30.dll & BtCoreIf.dll from Windows directory. Bluetooth stack will work again
Touch2 Tomtom screenshot
Can any post a screenshot of Tomtom on the Touch2 please.
I'm thinking of buying this phone but i'm afraid the screen will be too small for tomtom.
Would be much appreciated.
From the small test i did, it works fine although it seems to suffer a small lag, it remembered my previous diamond, ...
Here a screenshot i've take inside my home, for me the visual it's good ( not awesome but still good )
Good enough to use. Bought this phone. Loving it more the more i use it.
Thanks for the trouble making the screen. xx
tomtom works fine on my HTC with MEGA:

You can make the visual map screen bigger by selecting less elements in the statusbar....I use only remaining distance, arrival time and speed.....
Also the colorscheme you use makes quite a difference in visibility...can recommend you "default contrast" for the day and Vapno for the night. Via TomTom website many many schemes available.

Trouble installing Navigator 7
I have a Touch 2 with Windows 6.5 and recently bought Tomtom Navigator 7 on a memory card from Handtec. I had trouble getting it to install so here are my notes & instructions which I hope will help others in future.
The Tomtom web site says that the Touch 2 is compatible with Navigator 7 but when I tried to install the software it said my device was incompatible with the version of software. Strangely, given that Navigator 7 is supposed to be new, the newest “modified” date of any of the software on the memory card is June 2009, more than a year ago.
I logged a question with Tomtom support after logging into my account on their web site. After asking me to send them a copy of my invoice for purchasing Navigator 7 they said there was a software update ttn7.zip which I could download from the web site. The support response was very prompt – less than half an hour – but their installation instructions were poor and it took several rounds of questioning to figure out what actually had to be done.
I had copied the contents of the Tomtom memory card on to my own card. The correct instructions for the update are as follows:
- with ttn7.zip downloaded from Tomtom and on the PC, click on it in Windows Explorer to display the contents.
- This is a folder called ttn7. Click on it again in Windows Explorer to display the contents.
- You will see two items – start.exe and a folder called “2577”
- Delete the existing folder “2577” on the memory card (which had been copied from the Tomtom memory card earlier
- copy the new “2577” folder from the Tomtom download on to the memory card so it takes the place of the old “2577”
- there is no need to copy start,exe as a version with the same date is on the memory card
- With the Touch 2 off, load the memory card
- Power the Touch 2 on.
- During the power up process the Tomtom software will auto-install
- Worryingly my Touch 2 gave the same old warning message that the device is incompatible with the version of the Navigator but the installation process ignored this and carried on.
- Tomtom will prompt for the usual installation questions including the activation code that came on a sheet of paper with the memory card
- From now on it’s a case of answering the questions and configuring the various options to taste. Navigator 7 seems to work fine although I haven’t taken it out in the car yet.
