Guest fulleke Posted October 22, 2007 Report Share Posted October 22, 2007 (edited) The folder structure on my Vario III is as follows: \TomTom - contains TTToday.dll \Program Files\Navigator - contains the Navigator software \Storage Card - contains Start.exe, ttdesk.ver and ttnavigator.bif \Storage Card\voices - contains the voice files \Storage Card\Western Europe - contains all the map files (no sub-folders) got everything as you have, except for the start.exe and ttdesk.ver , TT doesn't seem to have installed them on my Kaiser? Can't find them anywhere... this is what i have on my SDMicro... Edited October 22, 2007 by fulleke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SilverfoxUK Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I've tried exactly as stated in the first post, however, I do not get the option to see the port 4 screen. all I get is the 'no gps device' message on TTN. GPS test also picks up nothing, tried outside for a long time. the weird this is that gps works fine on google maps? any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SilverfoxUK Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 just for anyone else having same issue... found this on the xda site. "Hm.. installed 6.030 my maps work fine, but when I choose "Other NMEA" and choose baud rate 4800, it doesn't prompt me for Com4. When I get into the program, it just sits there "No GPS Device". Any ideas? Googlemaps seems to work fine locating a GPS signal though." reply: NVM, finally got it to work. Changed the ExternalGPS setting to Com4. Then when I got into TomTom it asked me which Com Port I wanted to use. Works awesome now." I have now done this and it is working fine :( so much for NOT TOUCHING THE EXTERNAL GPS SETTINGS ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ManImCool Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 I have tomtom on my SD card; when I inserted the SD card into my Kaiser it autoran and installed. Tomtom works beautifully, I couldn't be happier, it finds my location in less than 10 seconds everytime, (I live in California). My only problem, is that EVERY time I soft reset (with the SD card in), TomTom automatically loads up. Everytime I insert the SD card into the phone, it starts up. Is there a way to disable TomTom from loading everytime I soft reset, while keeping the SD card in? Can I just delete some file on the SD card that might disable this? Please help me solve this minor inconvenience to this excellent program! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Transform Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 i believe that there is an autorun file that is designed to run when the sd card is put in. i had this problem and deleted all the setup files from tomtom then it was ok :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your SD card will have a folder called 2577 which contains the TTN installation/Autorun files. A 2577 folder is a system folder the OS will execute after soft reset, or card insertion. To stop TTN running when you insert the card, rename the 2577 folder to 2577_old or anything else; that will prevent the autorun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RickDawson Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 (edited) I cannot find TomTom on the included cd :( :D any pointers? or is it not included with the T-Mobile UK Vario III version?

Guest KevinAlbrecht Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I do not have the Tom Tom on my CD, for my Tilt. Is that included only for the Kaiser? However, if you install the included TomTom Navigator 6 from the included CD (Installer_Kaiser_ttn_6_032_8351_HTC_WWE_20070716.exe) everything will work from the moment you install the program. TomTom Navigator 6 version 6.032 included the option for a "Build-In GPS Receiver". I tested it myself and it works like a charm :( P.S. The included Sprite Backup software is really nice too :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest generous1one Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 Hey guys please help. I have the tytn 11 and the tomtom 6 from the packaged cd has worked fine. BUT my wife has upgraded to the o2 stellar which is o2's version and ive tried to install my tom tom software and it tells me I need to update the rom version ???. So how can I get my software supplied with by HTC to work with the o2 stellar. If it wont can anyone tell me which version I need to purchase to use on both devices. They are ofcourse identical devices but packaged differently. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Neil5459 Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 The version of TomTom supplied with HTC devices is specific to the TyTn II (6.032) whereas the latest general release vesion is 6.030; As O2 create custom ROM's for their devices, it may be that the TyTn version doesn't recognise the O2 version. Having 2 TomTom devices on a home PC can also be troublesome, unless each one is installed on it's own PC- TomTom Home cannot cope with 2 registered devices. If your wife can create a TomTom Home account, there is a way to obtain the generic TomTom software- look in recent posts here- sorry I can't remember which topic it was, but the title was something like: 'What is the latest version of TomTom that will run.....'

Is the same true for the TMob MDA Vario 3? I tried installing TTN 6.032 and got the same error message about the ROM version. Should I try 6.030 instead, and if so, where do I get it?

Guest Paul (MVP) Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 Ensure you have TomTom Home installed (free from TomTom.com), then hit up this link: tomtomhome:///TomTom?Install%3fhttp%3a%2f%2fwww.tomtom.com%2fupdates%2fttn.ppc.6.030.8320.toc&k33FSw :( P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Transform Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 im still having a few problems with my tomtom. when i turn the phone on, sometimes it just starts up by itself. i have tried the fix where i change the name of the 2577 folder, but then when i open up tomtom, my map cannot be found. any more advice?

It seems to recognise my phone as an HTC Kaiser. Any ideas what this error means? Do I need a memory card in order to use TTN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lozzd Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 That presumably is the problem. The internal memory isn't supported as the huge TT maps aren't going to fit into the internal memory... You'll need to get yourself a memory card. luckily they're not very expensive nowadays... A couple of months ago I got a 6gb for £35ish... I'm sure they're a lot less now. And I have the TT maps, and about 30 albums on my card, and it isn't anywhere near full.

Guest Paul (MVP) Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Renaming the 2577 folder shouldn't affect the maps at all. What's inside your 2577 folder? P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sc0user_75 Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Guys, I tried to install tomtom 6 last night. However, I have a bit of a weird problem. When I fire up TT6 I get a message saying No Maps Found. I then only have the option to click Done, and this exits tt6. I installed the UK & Ireland maps to the tomtom folder on the sd card. When this didnt work I installed to my docs. when this didnt work I installed to Guam folder. When this didnt work I installed to Navigator folder. But nothing seems to be working!

Guest mandt Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 The map folder needs to be at the root of the card, not in another folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
