Hi,
I'm trying to install TomTom5 on WM2005. When I start TomTom's setup.exe I choose language and after that "install the application" choice. It shows me list of software which will be installed on my device (TomTom, GPS, Today, Bleutooth Support, English - Jane (GB)). After clicking right arrow I get error message "TomTom Setup Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." and setup won't go any further. Has anybody else had similar problems with installing?
You need to copy the cab files over to the PDA and run them from there.
then follow this link

Followed your instructions and got TomTom installed. But now it's tomtom navigator.exe crashing. Doesn't TomTom have support for wm2005? Would be nice to know if there'll be patch to make installation with setup.exe work without crashing. Meanwhile my only chance seems to be to downgrade back to wm2003se.
Do you have the legal version of tomtom?
I used the illegal (couldn't wait for my update) and needed to install/run tomtom 4 on my pda before running tomtom 5; otherwise it would crash after selecting a map.
I had the problem with TomTom crashing, caused by the version of WM2005.. Now using Rom Version as 1.50g.00WWE, and all is ok
As for the version of tomtom yes im using the illegal version orderd the real thing on the 4th June.. and I'm still awaiting for it to drop through the postbox.. tomtom support page claims it still in the warehouse! although I now see i have been billed :x
Hi, Ive just installed TomTom 6.010 on WM6, but I can never get a GPS signal.
If I go to configure my GPS device in TOMTOM, which type of receiver do I select? The NMEA GPS? (I'm assuming this is COM5:9600, too)
Please help lol
Mines set up as:
Other NMEA GPS reciever
GPS Baud Rate 57600
Com 4
and Tomtom 6 works perfectly.
I had to use the tomtom 6 patch listed in an earlier post as my tomtom wouldn't work under Win Mobile 6, have you had to do the same.
It takes 5 to 10 minutes to find GPS signal some times (spesialy for the first time)
On some ROM versions it is immidiate. experiment...
My Com port is 0, but before i pair it with my HTC.
I use original Tom-Tom GPS

Excuse me, but I'm a bit confused...what exactly are you pairing with the HTC? The GPS?
Why are you using external BT GPS instead of the internal one? is it due to low satellite reception?...cause I do this as well, since I have sun shields on my car, and the BT GPS is placed on the shield on a clear location where the reception is much better.
The internal is mapped to Port 4, but actually it is on Port 5.
cheers thanks. works great now
i havent had to update tomtom at all yet, but im not using a particularly kosher version *ahem* (although i do have a tomtom 6 lisence, just not for the maps im using)
If you run QUICK GPS BEFORE opening tomtom it finds the satellites pretty fast (at least for me). If I do not run it tomtom takes a long time to locate the satellites.

you should be using the update 6.030 for TomTom 6 with devices with internal GPS

I agree - it is much more reliable like that.

?? well i have 6.0.10 and it works beside the fact that the menu is not visible (but clicking opens the settings box etc).
The main question i have:
How can i add an additional map manually? I have GB + major roads of WE. I have France maps. Just copying is not enough... so what else can i do?

You should only have to copy the map subdirectory (probably called France for this map) into the root of your SD card and Tomtom will be able to find it.
Location of TomTom 6.x patch for Windows Mobile 6?
A search of this forum does not seem to reveal the location of the latest TomTom Navigator 6.x patch that allows said software that I just purchased to run on my newly purchased x7501, which has the Windows Mobile 6 2.19 ROM code flashed.
What / where is the latest TomTom 6.x patch?
Is there a later, proven, "better" 2.x WM6 ROM available?
Alternately, what tools are used to develop the ROM flash code and application patches?
Thanks,
Tom

If you're looking for tools there is a section within the forum for this and you can also check multiple Wiki pages.
TomTom 6.x works well on my Athena running WM6. Never had to install a patch to get it to work.

To add to that, I normally do not do any settings. I just install after every flash and start the program and leave device near my window and go off to have a coffee. After several minutes it sees the sats, and maps etc. That is it. The rest is automatic the next time I start and goes faster.
Alway s have the maps and voices folders installed (copied) to card.

if i don´t have sd card the tomtom 6.030 don´t works ??? i installed on microdrive but don´t find the maps ???? any idea??? thanks
Its cause your copy of TT6 (6030) isn't correctly hacked to allow the use of the maps you have.. Try another mod/hack
No success
I am having no success installing TomTom Navigator HOME 6.010 on my x7501, which has the 2.19 WM6 ROM flash.
I have unsuccessfully tried twiddling the user interface settings that seem as if they may affect the outcome.
When executed on a laptop running Vista, without WM5torage, the installation program does not recognize the x7501 as a valid installation location. Attempting installation while running WM5torage 1.75 causes a WM5torage hang and the x7501 needs a reset to connect to a laptop running Vista, and results in a "<file name> not found" error message after WM5torage ceases functioning. One file might get copied, most often none get copied successfully.
Installing from various locations and combinations with the ppc cab file results in a "Installation of <cab file> failed" message, to the system, microdrive and/or the 4GB microSDHC card.
Though new to the xda and mobile device space, I am reasonably experienced otherwise. As painful as this might be for both of us, please tell me, step by step, how you successfully installed TomTom Navigator HOME 6.010 onto your x7501. Please do not assume anything, as I have likely missed something simple. I would need to know the versions of software used, e.g. ROM, WM5torage, Navigator.
According to the TomTom web site, Navigator 6 on WM6 is not supported.
Thank you,
Tom
Someone has another version here. You need legal maps to use

I had a similar problem installing the retail/downloaded copy of TomTom onto my device. I called TomTom support and they couldn't figure it out. I eventually figured out where the installation files were, extracted them and moved them over to my SD card. Then I installed them from there without any problem. I asked tech support to document the procedure I implemented to get this done in case they have other people with the same problem. Hope this helps. I'm slammed with work now or else I would look to see which files I used and post the info. I'm sure if you're familiar with installing CABs from the device you'll be able to tinker around a bit and find them. One thing I remember is that I had to extract the CAB on the CD or DVD before I was able to access the actual installation files. The first CAB is the archive and the CABs inside the archive are the installation files.
6.030 officially out-
Actually, Tomtom has officially released this update...
http://www.tomtom.com/support/product.php?ID=1401&Language=4&query=update&FID=6814
Basically, d/l the latest version of TT Home, insert your mem card or connect the device (mem card only 4 Vista), and click the D/L button on the above page.
Then follow the instructions. If it doesn't install, then you can manually pull the
cab file from:
(C:\Users\XXXX\Documents\TomTom\HOME\Downloads).
Then open with Winrar, and extract the ttn.cab file located in the 2577 folder.
Transfer to the card/device, run it, and you should be good to go.
Last note: Palm has an official update available on their site here:
http://www.palm.com/us/support/downloads/gps_nav.html
which appears to be the same exact file (same size).
Hope that helps...
hey guys i just want to copy the tomtom map to the microdrive via activesync but when trying to copy cline.dat i have an error what can i do to copy this file to the microdrive?
Hi.
I've got TomTom for HTC Leo. But how can i add new maps to it?
I have dowloaded the scandinavian map source, but how do i add it to the HTC??
Hello Mortenna,
Simply copy the directory with your scandinavian mapsource to your phones directory where's your other maps located.
In Tom Tom you can select the map you want to use, if it's unlocked .
Succes
Several ways:
1) Use TomTomHome application
2) put maps directly on your MicroSD card.

Internet is a big world with a small entrance good luck.
Dear all,
As I write I have a Lenovo ET960 sitting on my desk, which is lying there for the last 2 weeks as I am unable to figure out how to change its menu language from Chinese to English. My uncle who was never able to use it gave it to me after all these years. It has WM2003SE (I think!), although I am sure the experts here will know all about it. I am very keen on fixing this issue, the trouble is I am novice in this area.
I have done some background research, but I still need some help from all you guys here. I have the the following requests.
1) I understand that there is no way to change the language of this phone as the OS is hard-coded in the Chinese ROM. One way is to hack this Chinese ROM and change it to English using a HEX-editor. An alternate way would be to use a third-party software to change the language, however I could not find one for WM2003. Once I hack the ROM and make the necessary changes, I should, in principle be able to install an upgrade to WM2003 (which I also do not have with me!).
To hack the Chinese ROM in ET960 and solve this issue I would need to know two things:
(a) Where to locate the ROM in this pocket PC using my desktop PC (via a USB cable connection)?
(b) I need a reference ET960 ROM (ET980 ROM may also work!) in English to compare the values to change accordingly.
(c) Finally, an upgrade to WM2003/WM2003SE (the firmware upgrade d/l link) and the upgrade method.
Now the trouble is I have never flashed a ROM before, so I need to know the steps. In addition I would also need to know the steps to the upgrade process.
I have managed to download the following softwares/tools which I think will help in the process, but I dont want to start the process until I get some feedback from you guys here.
(1)The lenovo.zip file _ftp: / / ftp.roverbook.com / RoverPC /Lenovo_ET960/
and the (2) ET960update.exe from gsmforum.ru, which can be used as an update tool for both Lenevo ET960 and ET980. I have also managed to download the upgrade instructions, but only in Chinese!. This is where my research ends. Now I request you guys to help me with the missing links to convert my ppc into English.
Thanks,
Jay
This Thai review (use Google Chrome and translate it to English) states the following:
Languages: Support English, Simplified Chinese, Tranditional Chinese Input but can not display Traditional Chinese character.
The screenshots also show the phone is using English. It might be as simple as changing the system language in your MUI settings (in the registry: HKLM>MUI and change SysLang to 1033 Dec/0409 Hex...HKCU>MUI and change CurLang to 1033 Dec/0409 Hex).
Hi rete, Thanks for the reply. I have never edited the registry in a pda. Is there a special tool that I have to use for editing the registry? The ET960 I have with me has a interface similar to this _http:/ / video.pomoho.com/ent/762870.
As everything is in Chinese, I am unable to make head or tail of anything. Please guide me if possible. Cheers, Jay
I am getting back to my ET960 issue after a gap. I really want to make this device (which has a great design) usable, for which I will need to convert the user interface to English.
Rete, I made the registry changes you suggested but nothing changed. So I will need to to find an alternate solution.
The ET960 has WM2003SE (ROM version: S603 051229 which is not WWE). It displays all the system folders as well as some of the installed applications UIs in English. But most of it is in Chinese.
I installed an English localization software (Paragon Inc, LEng for WM6) which translated my ET960s interface completely to English. But, the ActiveSync stopped working and the system folders could not be accessed after the installation of LEng. This tells me that if I can replace the *.mui files from CHS to ENG in the ROM, I will get an English interface.
But the trouble is that I am new to all this and do not know where to start. So I request for some guidance.
The other option to make the device usable is to boot Android from a microSD card, but I could not find an Android version anywhere from my ET960 (which has similar hardware to MDA compact & Yakumo Omikron). Please advice.
Dear XDA Community,
I have recently bought myself chuwi Hi10 per and now have some problems and hopes that you can help me. After I have uninstalled a virus scanner (on Windows), I have found out that a Systemdriver is absent. I have tried immediately new Windows 10 per version has to instal then, however, most hardware no more can be of use and could also ascertain no unknown devices in the device manager, therefore I could also postinstall no drivers. Besides, moreover, version was installed for some reasons only the Home by Windows. Moreover, by the installation all partitions were formatted therefore I also have no more Android. At the moment I have installed PhoenixOS, has there, however, no access to my USB connection. Whenever I in developer options the fashion USB to MTP change the settings fall. I would have installed with pleasure Windows and RemixOS or the normal Android that preloaded it was again on my device. I hope that you can help me.
