If you go onto the tomtom web site ,you can now get tomtom navigator 7 for samsung 900i ,now it should be a new version and should use the internal GPS unit , i use tomtom with third party software (GPS Gate) and it works 70% ok ,but if they are now selling this for the omnia , surely it will be with internal GPS.

Can you provide a link?

I go to tomtom.com and under pda/mobile all you see is for the iphone.

And there isn't even a search option provided. How dump is that???

Come on secany, tell us your secret... a particular phone.bin? Or do we all assume we need additional software and keep installing it while we don't really need to? :D

GPS gate required for me too, pisses me off big time..

I think I got it going once without it, but never again.

Would love to get it working without GPS gate.

I found this, old but...

Only problem is..

7. Go to Settings->Personal->Phone and click "Services" tab

8. Select "GPS" and click "Change Setting"

There is no GPS under services, so it cannot be set to on.

Does it have to do with the fact there is no HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>ControlPanel>GPS Settings in my rom,

meaning I cannot put the shortcut into settings instead of settings/personal?? (Ryrzy 23506 lite)

I used google maps to set the port/speed.

Can anyone with some more knowledge tell me if I am missing something or just wasting my time.

Matt.

Hello Secany,

Please help us Dude!!

What's your secret behind??

I/we have been with you more than good one year using omnia (i900). I know you used to be a good chef for us. So be kind enough to give us your secret. I like Tom Tom as navigation rather other ones.

Please come on mate be generous?

Cheers'

i sent SECANY a PM and his answer was ( install the latest version of tomtom and select internal GPS ) well i have done this before and tomtom dosen't pick up the internal GPS , i have also asked him what version of tomtom he is using but still haven't had a reply. Enless there is a magic new version that we haven't seen yet , i think the onlt solution is to use GPS GATE etc

No come on, u're really unfair if u say that.

Secany is always avaliable and kind to give us his suggestions or helps and he always shared all his stuff.

I think u're totally wrong this time...sorry.

BTW we can just hope and not pretend that he will share with us even this new "discovery". :D

I use TomTom 7. I just use the trick of deleting the GPS.log & (i think from memory) GPS.bin files saved under "myDevice" directory. It can be slow to get a fix but it does work no software needed!

I am only calling it as I see it, didn't mean to offend anyone.

Check this thread: TomTom 7 for Omnia

I used this solution which worked with freeware "PortSplitter" . . .

Install TomTom

Install PortSplitter.

In Windows Mobile set GPS program settings to COM8,

hardware COM9

baudrate to 4800.

In PortSplitter set input to COM8

output to COM7

click the ADD button

tick the AUTOSTART

click RUN

Start TomTom

go to GPS settings

select “andere NMEA GPS” for device

set baudrate to 4800

then select PortSplitter COM7

Shut down TomTom and reopen and should be all good! Should take about 20 secs to locate you position.

(thanks to "Weirdo" out esteemed Dutchmen for this solution)
