Hello people
I have messed around with a few builds and radios and roms and have finally found a combination that runs everything nearly perfectly. The only thing making me go back to use WM is IGO 8 because I can't find a replcement for it.
Does anyone use a satnav with the sd builds of Android ideally with uk maps?
Cheers in advance.
PS I did do a search first and I know IGO my way is too small!

There are 2 versions of IGO which work on HD2 with the correct resolution :
Motonav (Motorola's version of IGO) and IGO My Way (yes, there is a 800x480 version)
I tested both and prefer the second one (it's not as good as the WinMo versions yet, but looks a bit like IGO Primo on WinMo).
Try searching for "iGOMyWay_8.4.2.139242_Android_800x480.zip" in google, you should be able to find what you need.
You my dear man are a star and a gentleman thanks for your prompt response and info

Sorry should have said try copying your wimo UK maps across to the Android version
They should work if they are version 8.3
For the US, I've found CoPilot Live to be a good Android stand alone voice turn by turn GPS nav with announced street names (TTS). When using WM, iGuidance and iGO have been my favorite stand alone nav apps. That said, has anyone been able to get the Android version of iGO to announce street names like it does in WM?
Best to all,

TomTom 7
Where could you buy TomTom 7? I have Navigator 6 installed and can't find a way to buy Nav 7.
ok great thx, for all this aswers
could you please make screenshots of your navigation software?
how does it look on a 800x480 screen? resized, black bar, skewed, small icons.. ?
thanks.
There will be a Co-Pilot specific version coming out - http://blog.copilotlive.net/?p=208
I presume v7 works fine, but just doesn't make the most of the resolution.
Guys,
If you have a Navigation program 'successfully' working on your machine could you post it at the topic 'Programs/Utilites & Games ~ working on the Touch HD' here~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442663
Thanks.

How did you get the software up and running?
Whenever I try to start the program (installation works fine), it crashes after the starting screen saying the specific resolution can't be loaded/found.
Have you changed the sys.txt in any way?
Where did you get you version from.
Did you try the skin supporting 800x480 resolution?

TomTom Navigator 6 working on HD
Is it possible that someone can check if TomTom 6 Navigator is working on Touch HD because i want to use this application that i already have.
It wil make my choice very easy then!
Thanks
Why would HTC make a phone that, on the face of it, seems to have a lot of programs that just won't work, particularly my (ancient) TomTom6. And what about TCMP ? How would I run my videos ? I'm after one as well, but am now a little nervous that it may be false economy.
i cant get TomTom 6 to work. could be something that i am doing, anyone else having this problem?

Me too. I got my Touch HD this morning and tomtom 6 won't even start up. I think part of it is because of the screen resolution of the Touch HD
Garmin Mobile XT 5.00.20wp works fine (have only tried SA March 2008 mapset). So far no obvious problems experienced though I have not extensively tested everything.
I also loaded MobiTrak's HandyMAP Pro PPC V5.2 (Build 1129) with SA and USA maps. The program Handymap2.exe fails when switching maps, and once a map is opened it won't open again (file not found error). A soft reset does not fix this problem.
I tried installed 3 different versions of TomTom 6.01 & 6.03 (I'm licensed) v7.XX (out of desperation I wanted to see if I could get any version running)
Version 6 gives memory access violation.
I sometimes get the TomTom opening in triple tiny view at the top of the screen.
I can't install v7 it says this version is not suitable for this device.
I've spent hours on this and I just can't get it to work. Has anyone else been experiencing this? Can anyone that managed to get TomTom working, tell me how?
Many thanks,
hy,

Hi,
Many thanks for trying to help but I've already seen this post and unfortunately it doesn't help. I tried to install the same version 7 but it says something like device not compatible and the earliest version of 6 that I have been able to find was 6.01.
I've spent many hours on the this problem, I've already searched here and all over the web. It looks to me like only a few people have been lucky to get it working.
If I don't get Tomtom working soon then I'll be sending the Touch HD back. I would appreciate any suggestions. I don't know if it's possibly an issue about missing dlls.
Thanks,
ok thats strange, but i cant help you anymore because i dont have any Touch HD.
But i hope for you that someone will help you.

The problem is that Tom Tom6 maps won't work on Tom Tom7. If you have a world wide collection of maps like me, it's going to cost a fortune to buy all new maps.
Has anyone figured out a way to get Tom Tom 6.03 working on the HD? Surely it is a matter of tweaking??
Edit: It's not a matter of Tweaking. I found a 7.450.9028 cab in my archives from another one of my devices. I was surprised to find that this version WILL work with TomTom 6.75 maps but not lower. Fortunately all of my maps were 6.75 so I'm good to go The only thing/problem is the text and keyboard are small.
I've managed to find an old cab file for 6.00 and it worked straight away! It has all my previous maps and POI from the memory card working fine. I can live with using 6.00 instead of 6.30 so long as it's stable/reliable.
Cheers,
Hi Matterhorn!
I hope to be trying this later today. What steps did you take to try to install Tom Tom 6.03 ? I have this from my TyTn II CD and updated my maps a few months ago.
I have Tom Tom home installed on my PC and was hoping to get Tom Tom home to see the Touch HD as a new device and install to it.
I will post here what I find happens with my attempts.

TOMTOM 7
I own realy a Touch Hd. For 3 days now.I've installed Tomtom 7,450 VGA.
It works perfectly and with Gsen even horizontal.
I also didn't notice any GPS lag. So what are those people talkinh about.
I suspect that I the only have an HD in their imagination.
I have version 6.010 and i installed it, i hoped for a working install but it doesn't work at all, boot logo from tomtom is showing after that it's crashing like hell, so i founded somewhere a 6.000 CAB file and that's running perfectly on the Touch HD. very strange to me , normaly should newer version have more compatibility solutions.
TomTom 7.450 works on HD
try to find ttn7 with 12.063 MByte. This version works very fine and I'm surpriced about the GPS speed.

Is there any difference is speed when using 2D or 3D maps ? I read somewhere on this forum that someone experienced better speeds ( no lag ) using 2D maps ?!?!
I use Destinator 7 and I am looking to buy HD within a month. I am wondering if anyone can share their experience using Destinator 7 on this device.
Cheers.

A few people are saying that ttn7 works fine for them. It didn't work for me but maybe I just got a duff cab/version. But as licensed (v6) user with lots of maps and a traffic subscription (the subscription would probably be ok but maps definitely not) I prefer to stick with version 6 for now. Tomtom looks great on the big screen and is quick smooth and reliable so I'm happy. Done some short runs with gsen and all seems good there too.

Check the HD2 apps section. There is a working TomTom version for HD2 there.
Actually, here is the link.

Hi Tomtom 7 works great on HD2.The only problem is u have to buy maps from tomtom and u cannot use the downloaded maps as it does not recognize them in any way.tomtom will allow you to download one city map for free.
One more thing .Install tomtom 7_915.9196 version only.
If you try the other versions it will knock off your blue tooth.its really amazing.
i got garmin Xt to work somehow.I jumbled up different versions and finally its working and i linked it to navipanel. with small glitch.when i click the phone now in navipanel the app freezes.trying to figure out why?
best of luck
i use igo primo,and works fine,also.

Yes that version works fine .. You can add it to the whitelist for the gsensor and that also works well ...
Also on the forum there is a patch that makes it work with the navipanel, if I cannot find the thread, or you can't I think I still have the patch ... Don't want to post it and insult the original poster till other options are tried ...

You need the files to place on the sd card ( you unrar the Motonav folder then copy to the root of the sd card, paste the map on the content/map folder, and you are set ).
You can probably find the files on the same place you found the .apk.. If not, google it ( I cant tell the link to it cuz xda isnt a fan of warez ).
[]`s
I installed the APK, started the app and it wrote "Installing Motonav" for a while and then quits.
Anyone got this working?
I'm using Igo Motonav on my HD2 Shubcraft. On the first boot it said installing then froze up. Each subsequent time it has worked fine.
I chose Motonav over IGO Myway because Motonav supports the full 480x800 resolution of this device.
Motonav uses the same .fbl maps as other IGO navigation software. I installed the .apk and filled in the content folder with maps from the Windows mobile version of Igo. The maps from IGO myway will also work with Motonav.
This is a very good solution for me because I can use navigation without mobile data charges. The maps are all individual files for each state. I like this because I can just add the states that I need so it takes up far less space on my sd card.
