Guest Rose4You Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 (edited) Hello all, Will Tomtom6.075 will work with BJII. I am trying to install the software, nothing happens in my mobile? Any one have experience in this? " Thanks Paul with the help of port opening tool I could able test the GPS" Edited January 24, 2008 by Rose4You
Guest danzer Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 same thing happened to me. i put it on my micro card and tried installing it with file explorer... it said that it supported or something like that. i would love to find out how to fix this problem thanks
Guest thelostsoul Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Check the card for an exe that you can execute maybe?
Guest Rose4You Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 (edited) I tried to execute START.EXE also :) but no luck. Edited January 24, 2008 by Rose4You
Guest thelostsoul Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Look for anything, even in the folders (possibly 2577 if that's a folder) and execute anything. For Garmin, if I didn't have the shortcut, I could just execute /storage card/garmin/app/WM/QueSP.exe and it'll run Garmin. I'd imagine TomTom has something similar aside from a launcher.

Tom Tom does install a shortcut to your Storage card as well as place one in the Start Menu....You can run the application from either. The problem is that while Tom Tom does install it's not supported by the phone and navigating the menu's can be a nightmare. Even if you do manage some menu navigation you will not be able to enter any text into the boxes for adresses or street names. 6.075 is only supported for PPC not Smartphone. I know this because I have this version for my AT&T 8525 along with all the maps for my country and an external bluetooth GPS reciever. Tom Tom wont let you select the com port either. I completely abandoned it!! I was trying to use the SPhelper .cab (cursor software) but it was cumbersome and totally unreliable on the BJII....Forget it. It doesnt work. Garmin is the go for the Blackjack II. I am happy with it even though I have been a Tom Tom user since my Nokia N70 days. Loved it but have moved on. If Tom Tom 7 is compatible with my BJII I'll look into it but for now I have a working solution in Garmin.

Can you tell me which version is good, Becoz I am confused about Garmin Navigator and Mobile XT
Guest Sed8ed Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Can you tell me which version is good, Becoz I am confused about Garmin Navigator and Mobile XT Basically there is only one Garmin solution for the smartphone. It's listed on their website. Garmin Mobile XT.....The SD card package is what you would want.
Guest Loki Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 Mobile XT is what I have. I was wondering what the map coverage for Canada is, unlike Tom Tom they do not have it on their site. Many thanks, L
Guest dreaMone Posted March 17, 2008 Report Posted March 17, 2008 TomTom 5 does work on BJII, so I have read on other forums.. Did not try it for myself as of yet though..
Guest tchan012 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Posted March 28, 2008 TomTom 5 does work on BJII, so I have read on other forums.. Did not try it for myself as of yet though.. tomtom 5 had a smartphone client. However, TomTom 6 is PPC only (touchscreen). I installed TT6 and played with virtual cursors to emulate this but could not get it to work. Switched to Garmin Mobile XT and it works OK for me.
