I have the new Vodafone V1415 and have put Tomtom 5.2 on and it works ok. The slight glitch is when you end the Tomtom program the phone display dims but never goes completely blank, I then have to go into power managment change nothing then say done and all is fine. I would appreciate if anyone know a solution to this problem. Cheers.

Hi again

I have now managed to get TomTom Navigator 6 working on the E650.

Simply went to http://spvunlock.rd.francetelecom.com/ filled in the details
Waited about 30 minutes
Copied file from e-mail to phone
Ran installer (cab file)
Reinstalled TomTom

Couldn't get other application unlocking methods to work, but this one worked just fine, just meant waiting for Orange to confirm the details.

Just have to get used to which numbers do what when in the settings menu etc, but also assume these false cursors would also do the trick.

Thanks for the help guys.


I am due to get the SPVE650 next week. Is the installer cab on the TomTom 6 DVD somewhere, I cannot find it.
What is its actual name?
Thanks

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

tongue.gif


@Pensive: yes you can use newer maps with TomTom 5.2



what do you mean by a text file? I have a GB map folder on my storage card but how do i do that? Also i am stuck on the voice page, but i cant choose a voice. It seems to be stuck on unusable voices? i try to change but it seems to freeze? HELP!!

I swapped Tomtom Mobile 5.2 from a C600 to a E650 without any problem. From what I can make out you can move it from one phone to another once without having to contact Tomtom. After that you need to contact them. If you slide the keyboard out it does nothing to the display and what's more the keyboard doesn't work well with Tomtom, you're better off using the number pad. I've not got Tomtom 6 but from what I've seen here Tomtom 6 can be made to work on the E650 using something called Fakecursor.

In need to some help here. Having read through this post it looks like a lot of people have got TTN6 running on the SPV E650.
I've followed most of the steps here, but I just can't get TT to install on the phone.

Here's where I've got to. The DVD installs TomTom HOME on the PC. I can then select to install stuff onto the storage card of the phone (either with the phone connected or the MicroSD card in a card reader).

The only application available for this device is TomTom application for Pocket PC (I was hoping to find something for "Smartphone"). Anyway as that was the only option I try and install this.

This basically takes :\app\ttn_pp_6.010.zip from the DVD and installs it onto the storage card.

On the storage card I end up with a directory called :\2577 in which are the following files:

AutoRun.exe
autorun.exe-install
autorun.exe-run
ttn.cab
ttn2003.cab

This is where I get stuck. AutoRun.exe doesn't run either automatically or if I try to launch it manually.
If I click on the .cab files then it attempts to install them, but the installer crashes on each of them, with little information.

As a last resort I downloaded the Windows Mobile 6 standard emulater and pointed it at the storage card, this fails in the same way as the phone itself (I tried this as I thought the phone was still app locked, even though I have run the unlock and it appeared successful).

Any ideas, I'm stuck for what to try next.

Just to close this one off for me.
Looks like the link above has been removed.

In the end I did the following:

1. Found a utility (WinRAR) to unpack the cab files on the PC
2. Looked at the XML "install" file and manually renamed and copied the files the locations specificed
3. Installed Xbar3 and FakeCursor

By doing all this I managed to install the version of TomTom6 that I'd bought (6.01) and had to properly activate the software (so it's all legal).
Using Xbar3 and Fakecursor TomTom6 on the SPV E650 is actually pretty usuable, I now like it :-)

I recently tried to add a favorite by entering a GPS coordinate and using fakecursor to press numbers reults letters being entered into the coordinate field. Does anyone know of a workaround for this? I will try the activesync remote display, but one of the earlier posts mention it having similar problems. Any help would be appreciated. (BTW - I have version 6.010)

UPDATE: I tried ActiveSync Remote Display and ran into the same problem. Does anyone know if you can manually update the favorties file (via hex editor or text editor) to add a favorite?

Hi,

Everyone are talking about which version they are using - TomTom 6 or TomTom 5. I think that people talk to litle about map issues.

Can anyone help me with this problem: I have managed to install both TomTom 6 and TomTom 5.2 on my Vox. There is however somthing strange with the maps. I want to use TomTom 5.2 on my Vox, because I don't like the 'fake cursor'. Both versions TT6 and TT5.2 work great on my Vox, but the maps don't work. When i start TT5.2 and want to load a map, there's a message that i need to "activate" the maps. But when I start TT6 and load the same maps, there is no problem. The maps just load without any problem.

Does anyone know, why I have to activate the maps in 5.2, but not on TT6?

Thanks..smile.gif

not all maps are compatible with both so you may have to nuy new maps for 5.2 be very very carful when upgrading to latest maps too... had bought a upgrade that TomTom recomended i do as my old one was out of date (new roads being built and stuff)..well the new one was not compatable with my device 20 emails and the threat of taking them to court they finally refunded me my money.

I tested all versions, the best solution is Xbar + Fakecursor + Tomtom 6.00:

6.00 => no backlight problem (power off registry at start, and on registry after quit)
6.10 => no backlight power gestion
6.20 => no backlight power gestion
6.22 => no backlight power gestion
6.30 => no backlight power gestion

All versions don't work with up & down selection, you must use Fakecursor to select !

Tips: for configure your radars notifications, you can use mymobiler http://www.mymobiler.com to control your mobile faster via activesync !

so if you have tested ALL version why have you not mentioned pre version 6 versions ?

I only ask tomtom mobile 5 would seem to be the best option if you can get a copy due to the OS of the vox

Tomtom mobile 5 is an old version with old maps ! no work in landscape mode, no maps upgrades, and very slow at startup ...

If you wan't use last versions of tomtom (>6.00), I make 2 auto-registry PowerTimerOn and PowerTimerOff (regedit must be installed) for solve tomtom backlight off problem and it's faster for launch than spWZTools !

i might be wrong, but a while ago i read a thread about this map issue.

apparently, earlier versions og the v6 series do not work on ttn5.2, however, they changed the people making the maps for them or something like that, and supposedly all maps v6.60 and up works on ttn 5.2

im using ttn v5.20 myself, and it works like a dream with my bluetooth gps reciever.

Hi,
trying the workaround with TT6, Xbar & fakecursor on HTC VOX (SPV E650). As far as I am using TT everything is fine. When I close TT and go back to homescreen I cannot switch off fakecursor. Xbar does not respond to middle button, no other buttons, apart from dpad work. Wondering how are all you using TT6 with fakecursor on smartphone going back to normal device functionality. Now the only thing I can do is to remove the battery...
