Is anyone else having difficulty instlling Tomtom on the new o2 ROM? I get as far as selecting a voice and it shuts down. If I open it back up again, I just get asked to select the language again. This happens with 5 and 5.1. Any ideas? I've got Blackberry, but lost tomtom
Anyone?
Mine works perfectly, although i did install the voice separately afterwards.
How strange! Any ideas?

I'm tearing my hair out here! How do you go about installing the voice separately?
Cheers
I have a suggestion
When I had this problem before, it was because I was missing the zip directory in the \Program Files\Navigator folder. Check here first!
TT5 problems....
Are we talking about the Genuine TT5 or a hacked version???
No, genuine. That's what I don't understand!!
TT5
Bugger - cos I'm due to update mine tonight/tomorrow !
I'll post my results tho...
Let me know how you get on. Looks like I'll have to try a hard reset. Why didn't I install TomTom first?
Don't know if this is helpfull or just rubbing salt in it, but after ROM update, first thing I installed was Tomtom and it went on fine and runs with no problems.
Hi
Just installed tomtom 5, i had to install v5.0 tested it, then installed v5.1 update & re-install the voice file, i all so removed o2 active...
now it work`s i had the same problem tomtom closed after selecting voice file unless i removed the maps directory.....
hope it helps
Well, I did a hard reset and installed and it works fine. Very bizarre and very annoying. I'll do a list of what I have (read had) installed at the weekend and see if we can identify a conflict. Very irritating! :?
Cheers guys.

Hello,
with the news french rom HTC and the last rom DOPOD tom tom 6.03 is freezing, so i made 5 modifications of the P3600 parameters and now no freeze at all and tom tom works flawlessly. Before posting the solution i will test it until tomorrow to be sure.
@+++
just for information, never meet a freeze in tomtom with the french SFR S300+ ROM
good night
FREEZE
Hello,
Yes that right with SFR 300 but SFR is not the newest rom.
The newset Rom have AKU 3.3.1
@+++
The solution is uncheck all POIs. TOMTOM will not show POIs in the map, but you will be still be able to be advised of radars proximity (or any other POI you want) or select as destination, etc.
I am testing this solution since a week and works perfectly.
download newest tomtom, solve the problem.
And what is the solution??
If TomTom Freezes I just press the green phone button and everythinh is oke again, but it is rather bad...

Thanks
I installed version 6.03 and it works fine now.
I sometimes still get a freeze (about once every 10 or 12 days now) but a quick power off and back on solves this in about 5 seconds. It only happens when starting so I can still trust it in city centres where you really need it.
I recently cleaned some junk files from the tomtom map folder and it has not hung since but it's too early to say if I have a 100% no freezes or not...
I never had any tomtom freezing problems till I deleted my US maps and reinstalled them with the sd card are almost full. so I reformated my sd card and reinstalled the mapset and the tomtom program only and did not have any freezing at all for are 6 hour roadtrip. guessing my problem was caused be the mapset being fragmented because the sd card was almost full when I reintalled the mapset. I don't think this will correct everyones problems but it might help some.
Just to be sure about what we are looking for
I have a TomTom 6.03 freeze with the latest FR GPS ROM…
But it concerns only when I was playing with the menus and settings with TomTom soft (also this can be avoided by switching to another program and coming back when it happens… As clicking the green button for example).
But, when I am not playing with… and I have just a navigation mode… I never had a Freeze.
Will confirm that during the w.e. as I am not using GPS during the week
To stop the freezing just disable all pois alerts on your map's...
you will not seem them on display but still have the sound alert if needed...
I thought there was solution here
The thread started will the solution but the real solution is never given *BUMMER*
I just installed ROM version 1.23.405 but TOM TOM keeps saying 'connecting to gps' but it never does.
Anyone knows why?
Tomtom Freeze
Hello,
I test the solution for one week ago and all its ok tomtom not freeze, the solution is to use ATIFix.cab (Its a fix for driver ati).
Sorry for the delay.
@++++
htc p3600 or dopod freezing on tomtom
i have downloaded the atifix and its working now as i had problem with mine and its been ok since yesterday , i think that is the soloution
Worked for me!
All,
I had the freezing problem with TomTom (version 6.03) as well. Installed the attached ATI fix and have been good for the past two weeks!
Hats off to you, Sleuth!

Atifix.cab

I'm running 6.030, I took the SD card out of my old Wizard, did a direct copy to my new MiroSD (6gig :-D) did a little file tidy up and then popped it into my Kaiser. It auto ran and did its install and worked straight away. I've since done a hard reset and it installed first time again.
In TT6 I have selected NMEA GPS receiver, baud rate of 4800 and COM4.
I'm really pleased with the GPS performance, I was worried that it wouldnt work as well as my bluetooth one as that could get a signal in seconds anywhere, even indoors, but the Kaiser is not a bad match, it struggles a bit indoors, but it gets there, over all very pleased.
hmm, i must have some issues, as i took my sd out of my hermes, where it would auto run, but when plaxing it in the kaiser it wont run atall?

On the root of the SD card there should be a folder called 2577, this has the TomTom cabs
I think all the auto run does is run these, just select them in File Explore and run them manually, should work...

What about if you just run the cab's directly?
if your talking about the ttn2003.cab or ttn.cab @ 5.50M then it asks to install and the progess bar just hangs , have to soft reset the phone to get out of it.
I am running 6.010 still and it works fine using the NMEA GPS with the above settings. I think the only thing I would say is once its installed if you have any problems with getting a fix on sats hit the tomtom traffic/update button as I did this and since then it was fine getting the sat info even if it takes a little time .

that was the 1st thread i found, and thought great! downloaded installed and got "Setup Error: Unable to install application. Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again."
like many of the other T-mobile users on that thread, the solution seemed to be to get 6.030 version installed, but that aint playing the game!!!!
goes off to bang head againt the wall!
just checked, put my memory card back in my hermes, tomtom runs fine version 6.030, put the card in the kaiser and no go?
Might be worth trying to downgrade to 6.010? as I say I am using that version perfectly fine, 6.030 gave me **** regarding my maps which i bought v6.75 maps a while back but they wont initialise with the tomtom home software so thought bugger it just install 6.010 which works on my Vario I with WM6 and its all fine.
Russ
allthough 6.030 didnt run well for you , you could actally install it?
if thats the case, i might hard reset the device and start again?
hard reset the piece of crap
still wont work???????????????????????????
Get "Installing ttn.cab" then the lttle windows timer in the centre of the screen and that it it just does bugga' all!
Sorry for the delayed response but yes i managed to install 6.030 no problems there it was just everytime i started it and it wanted to register the map no matter what i tried it would not accept the key information even via tomtom home.

On a different thread I have been looking for a fix for a voice instruction problem where the voice 'cuts-off' before the end of the command.
I get 'After 200 yards...' but no more, when the command should be 'After 200 yards, turn left'.
So, I re-flashed my device (which was a Vodafone v1615, with Vodafone ROM) to the standard HTC ROM, and re-installed TomTom.
Same problem!
So, my question now is, how many other Kaiser users with TomTom suffer the same problem?
I'm really beginning to think this is an issue with the version of TomTom with internal GPS...
Any others have comments on this?
I have the same with my TomTom and every rom for Kaiser so I think it's the TT version. Doesn't make any difference if the voice is installed on device or microSD card.
never experienced this issue,
Do you have a legitimate copy of tom tom on your devices?
Hi,
I have the same TT voice problem: "after ..." then nothing !!!
I 've tried with Tomtom V6.00, 6.03 but I have the same problem.
My ppc phone is LG KS20 on WM6
+++ Important note: I used TT V6.00 with my old HTC S110 running on WM2003SE and I don't have this problem. But when I changed to KG KS20 (wm6), I get this probleme with the same maps, same version of tomtom (same installation: tt6ifalleni.cab). Tested with 2 maps v675.1409: FR_plus & Western_Europe -> same voice problem.
Please help !!!
I've read a couple threads where people complain about the voice not completing,and they indicated that the fix for them, if I remember correctly, was moving the voices to the main memory from the SD card.
Hi ewingr,
That was a post from me when I thought it had fixed the problem - it didn't, although it seemed to work for a while - hence the post...
Still looking for the fix!
Oh, and everything is legit - as supplied with the CD that came with the device, and the small 'town' map your area able to download for free.
Used to use a Qtek 9100 - with no problems!

All my voices are in the SD card. I tried also to put them in phone memory (/navigator/voices) and had always this problem. Voices are selected in TomTom but not completing !!!
Have now tried an older version of TomTom (6.030), and still have the same problem.
Also placed map and Navigator all in device memory, and still same problem...
What the %*!$ is going on???
How many other people are suffering this? Does no one have any other ideas I can try?
i had this problem too
i deleted these files, MapSettings.cfg, TMCCODES.DAT, TRAFFIC.DAT, TRAFFIC.INC (where u place ur map). then i reset tomtom back to default setting. and i still have same problems, then after 2 or 3 uses of tomtom in two days. Now it's back to normal. I use TT6.030.8320.
Hope this help. I thought iam the only one
TT6.01 is working perfectly for me, but i have problem recieving call while using TomTom. that's right, i switch to 6.03.
hi all. i am running TT 6.030 on my unbranded kaiser with no flaws whatsoever. the internal gps works a treat. its not the most legit copy going, anyone browsing mininova.org could find it. i have all the voices installed to the sd card, however i have never used any of the "supplied" voices. i use the john cleese voice which i also "found"
no tomtom voice problems with me either, and i also place my voice files in the sd card. as for the voice type, i use a knight rider one . you can find many more of these custom voices here

Same voice cut-off problem on my At&T Tilt using TT Version 6.032 (8351)
Had to use that TT version because I could not install previous versions onto the device. That was the only version that would load.
Are any of the people that don't have the cut-off voice issues using an AT&T-branded device?
yup, i use a tilt

for me, yeah, becuz i tried everything (all the tomtom version), but make sure u backup ur original file first, then u open start tomtom, tomtom will automatically create the new files for u.
I am running TT 6.032 and having no problems at all with the John Cleese voice. I did notice there were some problems with a few other voices I tried....Sean Connery, Naughty Natalie etc in that they would be cut off as they are taking too long and the instruction has passed due to speed and position...
I really don't believe it has anything to do with your ROM version.

Same problems. TomTom Version 6.032, Map Western Europe v.675.1409. Original TyTN II. All legal. I saved the files you mentioned on my desktop. Restarted TomTom and so far it recreated the MapSettings.cfg and the traffic.inc. Not the traffic.dat or the tmccodes.dat though. Will use it tomorrow and see if it works again. Thanx for the help.
Greets,
I think someone once posted a possible solution to keep TomTom from starting up when you do a soft reset.
I have searched for that solution (including HOPING it was added to the TomTom string), but can't find it.
Does anyone know?
Thanks!
If you look on your storage card, I bet you have a folder called (IIRC) 2577.
This folder is the installation folder for TomTom and it will be run when you insert the memory card (and very likely, when you soft-reset).
If you have the folder, I suggest you rename to something different (maybe 'OLD_2577' or something like that?).
I think that will fix the problem.
yes
i've got the same problem.
i've deleted this folder and the problem is disappeared
I had this problem once.... actually after a soft reset it ran tomtom and also the installation of tomtom... very annoying....
In the end I think it came down to 2 files on the root of the memory card... one called "install.bif" and the second was called "tomtom.bif".. think these must be some sort of autorun files. as after I removed them... everything was sorted..
see if they are on your memory card...
GPS lags when trying to receive signal
When I first installed a cracked version of TOMTOM version 6.010 it worked great and receiving signal was fast. Now it takes forever to get satellite signal. Any suggestions guys? Thank you thank you

Is your QuickGPS file current? I have mine set to autoupdate when necessary, but an error could have changed that setting so it only updates manually.

I found it makes a huge difference with TomTom and Google Maps when I first turn on the HTC GPS Tool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=360477&highlight=HTC+GPS+Tool
I let it go for a couple of minutes, I make sure my QuickGPS is current, and then I turn on TomTom and it works great.
I have a tilt with the HTC factory rom flashed on it. Everything has worked fine for the past few months, until I tried to use my tomtom software a few days ago. For some reason, it couldn't get a gps fix. Then, when I exited, everything froze up.
Now whenever ANYTHING accesses the gps functionality, it can't find a fix, and when I exit, nothing else will launch, and I'll have to do a soft reset. Everything else works fine unless I try and use the gps. What the hell!
Any insight?
You might need to hard reset or flash a new rom. This sounds similar to another problem recently sorted - try starting at this link.
I just did that 2 days ago! The only thing i installed was kaisertweak and tomtom! Nothing worked. So I tried installing other gps crap to see if that would work. So far, nothing.
I'm pretty sure this isn't a rom issue, because it didn't work AT ALL following a hard reset. :-/
Try another hard reset, but don't install anything other than TomTom (even KaiserTweak). If that doesn't work, then you need to contact AT&T for a replacement under warranty. Although that could be a problem if you are on T-Mobile like your profile says...
ok, so I reflashed AGAIN. And it didn't do much. However, it's not crashing anymore. Even though it's not crashing anymore, i'm still not able to get a gps fix. :-/ What now?

Try flashing a new radio. Radios seem to have a direct relation to how fast (or slow) the Kaiser's GPS chip will get a fix.
Um how about trying another gps program.

GPStest, tomtom, google maps, and live maps can't get a fix.
And I'm already on my 3rd radio. The first one worked fine, then it just stopped working. No new software, no rom changes, nothing. It just didn't work one day. Is there a way I can run some sort of diagnostic to check the functionality of the gps hardware itself?

Does Tomtom report:
"No GPS Device" or "No valid GPS signal"?

With GPS test what port does it say it's using?
(ie without you changing it what does it initially say for the port?)
