hi friends of the non-touch-phones !
since two weeks i am trying to get a working navigation software and tmc to work an this fine device , and now i have got it very god and very smooth
it is so simple, but you must get the idea.
if anyone are interessting in that , let me know and i give a little howto
Please just post the Howto here - anyone who'd need the info will be able to google it out - this is what really helps the community.
I am using Sygic Mcguider and i find it excellent I was very hesitant to move away from TomTom but as there is only work rounds for the TomTom I decided to use Mcguider and found it to be very accurate looks nice and does work !
For proper function of TMC in navigation, you must use a driver that is developing user beemerTPPC. Here is a link. There are versions available for PPC, but this version also works on the smartphone - just incorrectly displayed menu. The smartphone version is under construction, therefore, follow this link.
Did you have to do anything special in CoPilot? I've been unable to enable TMC in Copilot 8 because enabling TMC requires another licence key, which I think is crazy. I've asked CoPilot support about this and... no answer.

If you do not have a license for the TMC, then the function is unavailable. so it is in version 7, I assume that version 8 will be the same.

You have Copilot version 8? Can you please give me an installation cab (copilot.wmsp.cab)? I can not find it anywhere....

Hi everyone
does anyone know how to get TomTom Navigator 6 to run on the Lobster 700TV?
I have managed to get the application lock sorted now but not TT N6. I know that TT N6 lists in its code the phones that it will run on but the Monet is not one of them. I have used a hex editor to overwrite another HTC phone in the code in the hope that this may work. Although the phone now starts to run TT N6, it stops with the error: "not digitally signed ...". There must be something else that needs changing but I am not sure what.
Has anyone got any ideas?
Regards ...
I got it working, but it would not find the map, or should I say it crashed when it got to that stage.
TomTom MOBILE (v5.2) works fine
I know that this may not help, but I've got TomTom MOBILE (App Version 5.200 (4450)) working on the Lobster.
I think you've found out that version 6 does not work.

Thanks for that.
It seems that TomTom Navigator 6 is a step backwards. I have had to do a lot of hacking with the software but without success so far although a breakthrough seems close.
Lobster 700TV
Hi ringp3ace
I have now tried TT Mobile 5.2 and yes, it works. I went on eBay and found this software for sale at £22 including PP. If anyone is intrested, there are 4 more left so be quick.
All the best,
Bluetooth GPS
Well, thanks to ringp3ace, I now have fully functional Tomtom Mobile working on my Lobster. Problem is, my bluetooth GPS device (GRB-288), wont play ball. I can pair and connect ok but there's no communication going on. I know there are some bluetooth devices that sulk when they are used with some phones but does anyone know which bluetooth GPS will work with the Lobster?
Regards
I'm having problems installing 5.20 on my Monet - using the download from the tomtom site it instals successfully up to the Jane voice then fails saying it isn't compatible with this device and backs out all the previous instals. Any ideas? I have a proper product key as I bought tomtom 6 for my pda and I can move tomtom 5 to the monet. Cheers

Thanks for your input but I have already found that the BT GPS 77 device also works well. I now have TT 5.2 running well on the Lobster.
Thanks to all those who helped to bring about this happy event.

TomTom6 working (sort of)
I managed to install TomTom6 onto the Monet. It runs OK, but the lack of a touchscreen is the killler though - just too difficult to use without one.
Certain screens require the touch screen (setting up the GPS, selecting a postcode). The fakecursor/touch screen emulator is not an ideal solution either as I can't see how to assign the fakecursor program to a hardkey on the Monet.
I went back to 5.2 which runs fine. 5.0 doesn't as the screen goes garbled.
Can anyone help, I keep getting "set up is not a valid windows ce application" when trying to run tomtom mobile 5.2
hard to say without more info.
sounds like you are trying to run a .exe file on the monet that should really be run on the PC (if its the setup file)
The executable file that should be run on the monet is TomTom Mobile.exe
Can anyone help me,
when trying to install tomtom mobile 5.2 it freezes on the voice selection.
Anyone any ideas
Thanks in advance

Help with TT Navigator 5.2
To all those how are still trying to get Lobby to play with TT.
First, make sure your Lobster is 'application unlocked' (see start of this thread)
Next, ensure that you are trying to install version 5.2 of TT Navigator and that it is a Windows Mobile version (there are several versions). The Symbian version for some phones will load but not run.
Once loaded correctly, TT Navigator 5.2 will self install from the software loaded to the phone using the HOME application on your PC. This application will 'see' the connected Lobster and memory card.
I have spent hours trying to find the 'secret' and I can tell that it does work. If you read through this thread you will find others that have too.
If you still have problems, let me know
Regards
Thank you for the help Leadweight
When you say HOME application on the PC, what do you mean?
Many thanks again
Elbow
Thanks again Leadweight
Reading what you said and some of the other posts I now have it working on the Lobster - taken me hours but it is pretty impressive...
Cheers

Well done

Needed to create a tomtom folder within my documents section of the phone and install the data.chk file.
Sorted !
wat gps works on the touch pro besides google maps and live maps ? ii heard igo8 and garmin work but havent found any solid leads could anybody point me in the rite direction thanks .
ps. if you know were i can download any of them pm me plz
Are you only looking for free software?
If your not, I use Tomtom which works well http://www.tomtom.com/
also I'm fond of GPS tuner http://www.gpstuner.com
Cheers
yeah im lookin for a craked version of igo8 or tom tom
any GPS software will work, I run Garmin XT
and I wouldnt ask for cracks on this board.
I don't know of a WM GPS package that does not work on the Touch Pro.
It's really a matter of finding which has the features you want from the many that are available.
If it might help you any, I made a list comparing features of Garmin Mobile XT versus Telenav versus Sprint Navigation here.
I could include other GPS navigation packages in that list if anyone else has used another enough to provide a response for each feature listed. Anyone with that knowledge can just leave a reply there in that thread and I'll update the initial post with the data when I can.
I got one that works just fine for me and I hope it helps you as well
I too run Garmin. Has anyone running Garmin noticed a slight lag with it or am I the only one?
Depends on the outcome youa re looking for
I use Live Search to get directions and to get posotions. The price is right and it has a cool speach feature that works well. If you want to track positions and loge where you are and were then I have found a great package that is free. Everytrail.com
Live Search : http://loco4local.com/
EveryTrail.com Cleint : http://www.everytrail.com/winmobile/
Again all are free.....

Anyone know where or if its possible to get a telenav download for free I'm new to windows mobile
Hi @ll!
I recently released version 1.2 of my latest App "Next2Me" to the US Windows Marketplace.
Next2Me uses GPS and shows you all available businesses around you from over 30 categories. You can view the results on a map, show detailed information. You can also call the target business, send the detail information to your friends by Mail or SMS or save the business to your contact list all by only one click!
And here is the latest BETA version of the upcoming Next2Me 1.3.
[UPDATE]
You can now manually choose between miles and meters. And for all US and Candians, Next2Me is now searching for "Gas stations"
[UPDATE]
I changed the GPS code a bit because some users get an exception on some devices.
[UPDATE]
Again changed the GPS device detection.
[UPDATE 04/25/2010]
o RC1 released
o Next2Me languages: DE, EN, FR, NL
o A menu to tell Next2Me how to search for your GPS device (this will solve several issues, like the exception told by some users and the unwanted bluetooth dialog which is automatically poping up)
[UPDATE 04/27/2010]
o Next2Me now in IT (thanks to Spyrale)
o Beautiful new High-Res Icons for the menu (thanks to Saumaun)
o Limit the search radius (250m, 500m, 1000m, 1500m, all)
[UPDATE 04/28/2010]
o Fixed a language bug for the italian version
[UPDATE 05/01/2010]
o Updated language strings for NL, FR and IT
If there aren't any more suggestions or bugs, this version will be send to the Marketplace
So, have fun with Next2Me and send me your suggestions, critics, etc.
C YA @LL!

Any non-marketplace download
Is this available anywhere besides the MS Marketplace? I don't want to have to install this to my internal memory.
I like the app: http://www.fuzemobility.com/learn-whats-next2me/
Any thoughts of using Google Location instead of GPS to speed things up? also, I don't see a way to email a location- just to SMS. Am I missing it? If it could pull the Google info that would be nice as well (such as type of restaurant, rating, etc). Overall I do like it though. Good luck with the project!
great app so far but sometimes you cant get a gps fix or it can take awhile. would it be possible to use google location or Sleuth's myLocation Service here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=607102. These might work better and they will almost always work and are much quicker than a gps fix.
Looks interesting. But please, could you kindly post it somewhere else than on the Marketplace.
No way I will go to the MarketPlace. I do not want to download any cab on the internal memory.
Thanks

From what I've seen, this app has a lot of promise, but I have had a problem...
On my Tilt2, whenever I look for something with Next2Me, I get a message "Invalid GPS Signal..." or "No GPS Device found.". But, if I start up Google Maps first, and let it get my GPS position and then start up Next2Me, it works just fine. Any thoughts/suggestions?
Also, if it could toggle between km and miles, it'd help for us Americans who won't join the rest of the world in using km's
One more suggestion for future updates...if we could set the # of hits returned or better yet, if we could specify a 'radius' to search it'd make the app even more user friendly.
Thanks for the work and keep it up

Hm, that's a GPS-Problem under Windows. You can use QuickGPS to improve the lock-time, but that doesn't always work.

Yeah, I am already aware of the "km/miles"-Bug ... this will be fixed in the next version, of course.
Your suggestion with the amount of hits returned or the search radius is very good and will be proofed.

Yeah, that would be a solution to use the location service using the Google Location. I can implement support for the myLocation service of Sleuth, but I would prefer to implement the location service into Next2Me, so that there is no need for the user to install another application to use Next2Me. Are there any specifications or source code snippets how to use the Google Location service under Windows Mobile?

Next2Me checks your Mobile Outlook on you cell phone, if there's an E-Mail account available. This e-mail account will be used to send the email with the location service. The button for sending an e-mail will only be shown if there's an email account set up in your Windows Mobile.
Hope this helps!

im using the Next2Me form the first day it has been released in marketplace
i think its 1.0
works great in my hd2
Good to hear that ... I don't know the exact cause of the problem, but strangewise the GPS-Stream is on most of the HD2 different to rest of the world's mobile phones ... and on some not, like yours.

Not really ... it's currently available as BETA version. You can download it from the first post. Did Next2Me crash with version 1.1 or earlier? I want to test it with as much cell phones as possible, so please write me if you have any errors with Next2Me.
Additional info: Next2Me 1.2 BETA also supports location using the GSM network. So, it also works with cell phones without GPS module.
Love the new version, Fast, nice GUI and great info! Thanks for this very useful app!
LoL I restart the Omnia and now it works good (Version 1.2).
But how can we add content?

What do you mean with that? Do you want to add your own categories and search criterias? This is not possible currently. I am thinking about implementing it, but currently it's not possible. This BETA version is for testing it with as much as possible cell phones, to be sure position detection is working on every phone.

Tested on tmobile touch pro 2 and works very well on cell tower location. Haven't tried on GPS.
However, the result for gas station is way off, reporting station like 700KM away from current location. Other services seem fine.
Besides, is it possible to change units? Or show current gas price?
Working really nice on my HD2 ! Congratulations man
i'm searching for best navigation program for my hd2, with that i mean the program that is the most stable and works fine. So please if someone can give me a link to download it and tutorial how to make it work it would be of a big help to me.
that is not what this forum is about..
But i use Tomtom and it works great.. links and help use google
I like Navigon very much. Before, I used Garmin.
Both operate with no issues on HD2. Navigon for sure is available on their website (didn´t check though), Garmin is a bit outdated and maybe no longer available.
