QUOTE(schmia @ May 29 2007, 14:02)  This is the version of TomTom 6 running on my HTC S710: Regards, Schmia Well I have the same Version running now on my S710, only thing is, I do not have a TomTom GPS module, and so I have a big problem with the bluetooth COM port, I have no way of selcting COM6. Anybody have any idea how to do that? I can't seem to get Fake Cursor to work. I tried two versions, one does starts up, but can only stop by taking the battery out. The other one seems to work, but I have no way of switching between TomTom and/or FakeCursor. Thanks. Cya, 6772Chevy |

But since I can not select a bluetooth GPS module I still have not been able to try it out  EDIT: COM Port problem is now solved

I searched for the file navigator.cfg on my storage card and edited this file with a HEX editor. I changed the number behind 'COM' in the right port number and that did the trick. |

Okay, interesting info here....I tried tom tom 6, but had the device not compatible problem - but im not confident with unlocking the apps, especially since it seems you need to bodge the cursor issue to use it.
I've tried 5.2, but i copy the files ot the SD card, and cant run the .app file, it doesnt recognise it as an app. Can anyone help me with a simple process ot install to tom 5.2 on my SPV e650 please? |

I got hold of tomtom 5.2 and copied it to the phone rather than the card. I was lucky that I had the maps cd's from my tomtom 5 for pocket pc and they work like a charm. Just installed them to my micro sd card and retained my original licence. I can live with them not being the latest maps as up to now they still cover the UK fairly well. You will need to run the app unlock first though. Didnt bodge anything on my handset. Le. |

Im trying to install tom tom 5.0, im installing it from the card, but it says this software is not intended for use on this device. update to 5.2 comes later i would guess..... This is 3 minutes after removing the app security, and rebooting the phone. I could install tom tom 6, which i may be able to use now but i'd rather use 5 since it doesnt require the fakecursor. i'll try installing the softwzre from the phone memory instead like you say but otherwise I cant see what else can be done at present. Thanks for your help. |

Thanks for your help. Which Tom Tom 5 are you trying? Tom Tom Mobile 5 works with Smartphones. For Windows Mobile 5 and higher (devices which have a QVGA display), you need to upgrade to 5.2 before installing it to your phone, or it won't display properly. To upgrade to 5.2, you apply the 5.2 update (download from here) to the TomTom files on your card via a card reader, then put into your phone. Some say to copy via ActiveSync, but TomTom don't advise this, and copying TT files via Activesync didn't work for me either on my previous device. I hope this helps This post has been edited by paholman: Jun 14 2007, 14:13 -------------------- |

QUOTE(nehvada @ May 13 2007, 19:24) you can take any used or allready registered version, because you only need the software itself. ask a friend for a copy. then you buy the newest maps directly from tomtom and register with them. registration relates to the maps, not the software. no problem here for me, everything works fine. Okay, I have 5.2, installed, running, but it wants to activate the map.... I havent paid for the map yet. One question: If I have downloaded a torrent of 5.2, then buy a map form them, will it let me activate it? Another question: can you use v6 maps with V5.2? (of course) Let me explain - they dont sell a version of tom tom which will work properly on my phone - so i want to use 5.2 (which I read in this thread works nicely without fixes), but I'm happy to pay for the latest GB map......Can this be done? Alternatively, is there a working keygen available which will let me use an older map until they support the 650 with version 6 and the interface is patched properly? I would be happy to pay for it once it is actually available and effective. This post has been edited by Pensive: Jun 14 2007, 18:00 |

TomTom 5.2
if you can't get pass the voice screen: make sure you have a textfile named CurrentMap.dat in \My Documents\TomTom contents of this textfile should be the location of your TomTom maps, e.g. \Storage Card\Benelux-Map  @Pensive: yes you can use newer maps with TomTom 5.2 This post has been edited by birdibird: Jun 15 2007, 09:33 |
