TomTom for my Wizard?

Up till last week I had a T-Mobile MDA Compact and I'd got Tomtom (bakonl) running. Now I have a Wizard (T-Mobile from The Netherlands) and I can't install the Tomtom. Appears that WM2005 not compatible with Tomtom Version 5. Anyone got a plan to get arround this? :?:

To install TTN5 on WM5 you have to copy the cab files directly to pda and launch it with the pocket explorer (or resco explorer).

a bit more info to install tomtom and get it working
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29606

Thanks for the responses guys. I've given it a go and moved the cab files from the CD to my SD card and installed the GPS cab first. Then soft booted the Vario and then attempted to install the TTN cab.
All per the post :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29277&highlight=ttn
However... Still won't install correctly...
Am I doing something wrong?
Any more advice gladly received.
Thanks,

you need te get the tomtom 5.1 files then it works fine. I've got it working on my bleu angel with WM5, and today i installed in on my brother's vario and it worked just fine.

Thanks,
Can I ask... Where did you get the 5.1 files from?

You can download TTN5.1 from the following link
http://www.tomtom.com/updates/ppcupd510.exe

otherwise just use a torrent search engine, you should find it in no time

You need the zip file not the exe. AS4 messes up the installation.

Dear All,
I found this update this week..
http://users.skynet.be/wallpaper/TOMTOM5.1.zip (for more info see http://tomtom3.web-log.nl/log/856067 around - Mondeo :: 20 september 2005 16:18 -).
Note : Download, unzipp... connect your PDA/Phone via Sync cabel/station, setup.exe run. (I have installed it over my (bakonl) 5.0 version.... !!!).
Note 2 : Can ONLY be used if you have a BeNeLux version of bakonl TT5 and only with the BeNeLux map (normal or plus).......
Success with the upgrade.

TomTom with WM6.1 on HTC wizard
Good Morning,
can anybody support me in trying to setup a navigation functionality on my HTC wizard, that runs WindowsMobile 6.1 (those TNT edition)?
Unfortunately i can't find up to date information about which GPS-hardware to use. Is BlooTooth the only reasonable solution for the wizard?
I also plan to feed the tachymeter signal from my bicycle somehow. Has anybody read of approaches to this and can cite or link?
Third thing I'm in search of is an alternative camera software. The "Camera for Pocket PC Version 3.00" does not support geoTagging and not even writing in the Tags for Titling, commenting etc.
Many thanks for your valuable hints in advance.

Challenge for the xda-gurus-Solution for Intern.SmartDialing

I have uploaded a greek rom file for the htc wizard.
This ROM has a second level of protection that can not be bypassed only by CIDunlocking a phone.
After installing the ROM, uppon second boot (first boot installs ext rom then restarts) it displays a message
"This rom is intended only for devices sold by ace hellas" and freezes.
I think it searches for a valid IMEI range but I am not sure.
I am trying to find the exe file responsible for locking up the phone (using WM5 editing tools my maimach) but I have no luck yet. If someone could lend a hand I would be gratefull. Even giving me a hint (like how to edit the registry from a dumped ROM etc.)
Anyway, the file is located here.
http://dcom.teipir.gr/RUU_Prodigy_10107105_Qtek_WWE_ship_GR1.04.exe
Thanks in advance
Below, you can find instructions to customize smartdialing for recognizing characters for any language

My best man has the EXACT same problem with his Universal.
We haven't uploaded the firmware yet but can easily be downloaded through qtek.gr.
Can someone help?
It's a pitty not to be able to use the device just because he bought it outside Greece.
It's an interesting challenge after all.
Andrew, maybe you can send me a PM with what you have tried yet.

Check your Extended_ROM files. They might be what you are looking for. Probable workaround might be soft-resetting your device before extended_rom files are being installed, i.e. hard-reset your device now and immediately soft-reset it when you will see message "Customizing will start in 3 sec..." or something like that...

The IMEI is stored in registry within "RIL" branch, but your IMEI is not touched within traditional flashing/reflashing

A Russian fellow had done this job last year, for the S100 Greek Rom (Anansky i think was his name). The lock is not on the extended rom, but on the main OS. And if i remember well, it has an IMEI checking ytility, and another one which checks Language settings for the Language selection utility to work, but this can be changed with registry hack. Well, we are all waiting...

no it's not in extended ROM at least for the Universal (and sorry for posting in Wizard forum) - we tried your method from the first moment

1. No, extended rom has nothing to do with it , for sure.
2. Yes, anansky has done it before for the htc magician (my previous phone) but never revealed a howto.
@NLS
I have found a suspicious file called langbootcheck.exe which I tried deleting (with WM5 edit tools) prior to flashing my device. But then the device won't boot at all. Maybe this file is needed, or maybe I did something wrong?
If someone could at least tell me, how to edit the registry hives with the wm5 editing tools. This way I could see wich applications are executed on startup.

Did you try to play with HKLM\Comm\BootCount value? To put it as 0 so it is always thinking of a just hard-resetted device?

no I didn't try that, nor the device is mine (to try)
andrew try having a 0 byte file in place of the exe - maybe it needs the file to be there but nothing to happen when it is called
maybe Ace (since I am 99.5% sure that they read xda-developers), could give us a hint on why they have done this (when nobody else did on the whole planet)...

No, but it sounds like a good idea. That would explain why it doesn't lock up during the first boot process. But then again there is no way to change it because the os automatically reboots itself. Unless it installs a cab file from ext rom that does the trick. Do you think this might work?

i realy doubt it! I mean giving us a hint
I will try to replace the file with a zero-sized one. But then again I'm not even sure if it is the file responsible. I mean, that I just guessed (because the name sounded suspicious). It could be any other file. The file name could be desguized. Thats why I need to know 2 things:
1) How to edit the registry with maimach's WM5 editing tools.
2) Where is the startup configuration located i the registry

I didn't say tell us "how", I said for the to tell us "why"...
anyway...

Yeah ACE sux, well it's been really disgusting to lock the roms so we anyone who want Greek language to buy only from em. ACE think theirselves smart enough and all the other like Russian, italian, norwegian, dutch and many more who have their Qtek rom unlocked are the "stupid"...
Anyway this is a different story..
I am available to help in any way but i'm not such an expert user as you to play with the editing tools.
P.S:I see the rom is uploaded on a TEI of Piraieus server, you have any connection with teipir? I'm in the Automation.

NOone? :!: Buzz? Come on, you will make many people happy!!!!
I don't want to sound nagging but it must be very easy for you!!

I found another approach to our problem.
Instead of trying to hack the rom, I extracted some dll files needed for the greek smartdialing.
I dumped the Greek rom and followed the instructions here.
http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&Itemid=59&func=view&id=10204&catid=45
but used the Greek smartdialing.dll instead of the one posted above.
It worked very well. I even edited the smartdialing cab found on the ext rom and included the dll. So each time I hard reset the device, the smartdialing feature works for greek characters. I think the smartdialing can be customized just as easily for any other language, just as long as you find the .dll in your language. (For this, download a rom containing the language, and user WM5 editing tools found on xda-devs).
If someone needs it, I can upload the greek smartdialing cab to overwrite the one in your ext rom (for wizard only).
I also use AEKMAP for the internal qwerty and I find it very stable, simple and small.
So I guess there is no much point in hacking the greek rom (unless someone wants the menus customized - I don't).

how did you dumped the greek rom ?

Awesome idea.... is there any way i can get my hands on that .cab file? And maybe on your .aek greek layout? because mine kinda sucks

XDA Mini S ROM update

Hi
Am newbie to the whole XDA thing (am just converting from BB), have managed to unlock my XDA Mini S and tried running K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020721_ship.exe as i heard this would reflash the ROM to the latest (a friend of mine gave me this copy).
Got an error during this, and wondered if there was a specific XDA Mini S version (have searched on the site and it appears that there is on ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard) and there are many different ROMS under the ROM directory, but i am unable to login to this site.
Am i just being thick here.
Any help gretaly appreciated.

That ROM upgrade worked ok on my xda-mini-s
When I upgraded my ROM I done the following.....
#unlock phone
with no SIM card in phone
copy EnableRapi.cab to phone
run EnableRapi.cab from phone
run lokiwiz.bat from PC
select option 'U' Unlock SIM
phone reboots
add SIM to backout bin file names on PC
run lokiwiz.bat from PC
select option 'C' unlock CID
phone reboots
add CID to backout bin file names on PC
#install new ROM
uncomress ROM file from zip
click ROM install file
follow instruction
takes 10 minutes
phone reboots
Hope this helps

Bilbo,
Hi. I ran through what you put but my Mini S does not auto reboot. I'm not sure the exact definition of a soft reboot is? - Put the stylus in the side or hold the power button for a few seconds?
Either way I cannot get the new KJAM rom on as invalid vendor ID is haunting me.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You
Ben

Dudes - I've done the same upgrade to my mini S. Not sure if it's worth the bother. No difference in speed/performance and my keyboard shifted symbols (@?£$) are out of sync. I think I'll go back to the Mini S rom without the customised stuff.

LLcoolJ:
I noticed lots of difference, speed and battery life.
To get the keyboard from US to UK symbols use the following:
Here are the registry changes ....
Keyboard language
Registry: HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd
Key: Locale (string)
Value: 0809 English UK
0409 English US
0407 German
0419 Russian
040C French
0410 Italian
040A Spanish

The invalid vendor ID is the result of the ROM update..... to get rid of it make sure you run :
run lokiwiz.bat from PC
select option 'U' Unlock SIM
phone reboots
add SIM to backout bin file names on PC
A soft reboot is when you hit the reset button on the right hand side, its like rebooting a PC. A hard reset however is a re-install boot where you loose everything and the ROM is re-installed.

Cheers Bilbo - I've made the changes to the registry and the keyboard talks like me. Your right about battery power as well.

Bilbo.
Thank you for replying and helping.
Let me just go over what you said...
first I ran the loki cab file on the mini S.
run lokiwiz.bat from PC -- done.
select option 'U' Unlock SIM -- done (with sim card removed)
phone reboots -- not automatically though, but I will reboot it after the lokiwiz.bat finishes
add SIM to backout bin file names on PC -- what does this mean? this is not in the lokiwiz instructions and this is where i'm going wrong. Where is the bin file created btw, I can never find it?
I have tried so many combinations i'm starting to lose hope.
If you can help to get this damn thing working I promise to make a donation to this web site.
Thanks for all the good work.
Ben

i managed to get the unlock, but did not do the CID (so will try that).
So once i have done that will the K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020721_ship.exe upgrade work?

Here's how I got mine working. - Remove the Sim card. Make sure you use Lockwiz02b. Select U to unlock from the options menu. The mini S should reboot automatically. Leave the device alone until its functional again and then start Lockwiz02b again. Select C (CID unlock) from the menu. It should reboot again and close down the Lockwiz box. The mini S should now be ready for a rom upgrade. On my first attempt I used the original Lockwiz prog which caused problems for me.

I'm about to do my rom update on my mini s....but this thread is so confusing!
Is there a step by step guide somewhere on the forum???

ROM Upgrade
Upgraded O2 XDA mini without any real problems:
I used the aWizard 1.3 Beta 2 tool which allowed me to carry out the CID Unlock and was pretty easy to understand. What it did not do was pick up the ROM from the rom folder but once I had completed the CID unlock I ran the rom normally and all was well.
So in essence: Connect Mini to PC via Activesync
Run the aWizard Bat file enabling RAPI (This is used to communicate with your XDA once it has done using Activesync). Then select the Unlock CID option. Once completed I then exited the wizard and followed the instructions as part of the rom upgrade and all worked well no hitches except the one mentioned above about the keyboard (now I have to find out how to modify the registry).
So what I used: aWizard 1.3 Beta 2 and QTEK Rom 2.17
186504-ruu_9100_2170702_21707102_20710_qtek_wwe_ship.exe

Mystery Solved!!!!
I finally figured out why its not working....
When I downloaded the loki zip file I opened it up in winzip and dragged the contents to a folder I created. Ran the batch file eveything seemed ok and the unlocker said it unlocked the device.
I have now realised that you have extract the files from the loki zip file and use the folder structure. If you don't, the utils directory is not created and the loki.bat cannot reference some files.
Found the answer on page 12/13 of the loki thread.
Thanks All
Ben

After doing the CID unlock the ROM install worked fine.
Just having the keyboard issue at the moment with symbols, went to:
Registry: HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd
Key: Locale (string)
Value: 0809 English UK
but could not find the locale key to set to UK?
All i see is:
DefaultKeyLock
InitialDelay
MuteSwitch
RepeatRate
ShowWarningMsg
Am i looking in the right place or do i have to add this in (if so how)?
Cheers

Youv'e got to create a new registry key. Assuming you've got a registry editor. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Control Panel / Keybd.
Then create a new string value. Name it Locale and give it a value of 0809 for UK. Then reboot.

Just went in a created the new reg key as you mentioned.
Rebooted and it worked.
Many thanks for all your help on this, it is most appreciated.
I am now the converted!!!
So to sum up for anybody else:
Bought XDA Mini S from 02
use Lockwiz02b
Select U to unlock from the options menu
The mini S should reboot automatically
Start Lockwiz02b again
Select C (CID unlock) from the menu
It should reboot again and close down the Lockwiz box
The mini S should now be ready for a rom upgrade.
Then run
K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020721_ship.exe
follow usual prompts.
Once phone is up and running, get a reg edit tool (i used PHMregedit) as the keyboard for a couple of the symbols is out of synch (think it is US style).
Using regedit tool
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Control Panel / Keybd
Then create a new string value
Name it Locale and give it a value of 0809 for UK
Then reboot.
Mini XDA should now work fine.
I have found that the new push technology for email is faster than Blackberry and more usueful.
Hope this is helpful to others.
Cheers great forum

quick question...
i am fed up with waiting for o2 to release their latest ROM so i am going to take the plunge with this ROM instead, my question is do i have to make any special changes once installed to make it work with O2 UK i.e. mms settings, GPRS settings etc.?
Also i noticed somebody has put together a T-Mobile USA customised ROM any chance that somebody will do this for O2 UK?

The Problem im having here is that once i have created the registry key, it deletes after a reboot. Is there something else i need to unlock to allow writing to the registry?

New Roms
Hi there - I'm sure this is your answer - I have read this on many forums.
WM05 takes a while to store the registry updates after you exit your editor. Make the registry change and wait a minute or so before performing the soft reset.
Hope this helps - we have all fell for this "improvement" to WM5 from the boys at MS.
Regards,
Chris.

SPV m1500!

Hello all...This may be my first post but i have beed watching the forum for quite a long time!You are doing a great work around here!
I need a big favor from anyone that can help!Does anyone have the original SPV m1500 rom provided by orange and can upload it somewhere for me to download?Or can anyone back up his ROM from a m1500 and upload it somewhere?
And i have question as well and i would be grateful if you could answer this one!
If you haven't CID unlocked your phone and somehow managed to upgrade the ROM with a different make's one (i have one from Qtek 2020i at the moment) will it be blocked by the network or is a matter that the person that i bought it from (over ebay) reported it as lost/stolen?Currently everything works fine apart from the phone bit!It says no service and can't detect any network!(it just says ''unable to read setting from the network.Try viewing settings later or disconnect data connection and try again'').
Any help would be greatly appreciated

sorry double post!server had problems!can a moderator please delete one of them/?

Any help pls!??

Hi,
SPV M1500 same as O2 Xda IIi / Dopod 699 / i-Mate PDA2 / Qtek 2020i and known as HTC Alpine. You can upgrade using any ROM that build for HTC Alpine.
Please check at here about all in one sim unlock tool by itsme

Thanks

Thanx clustered for the reply!
I have already used that thread to upgrade my firmware but i am just asking if i anyone has the original SPV m1500 orange rom available?
The thing is i have done the upgrade without CID unlocking the phone!Everything went ok but the only problem is that now the phone in the signal bar has an exclamation mark and says no service!So i was just wondering if it is the upgrade that ''blocked'' the phone bit of the M1500 or is it something else!
Thanks again

after a lot of search i found in a forum someone stating that :
''RIM check the ROM version and RADIO version before they allow you to connect to the relay. If it's not an approved mix, your device IMEI will be BARRED from the relay.''
is that possible and do you think that's why my phone gives the no service message?
Could anyone suggest any solutions to this?

anyone can help??

-Run the application.
the application should disply ,UNLOCK SUCCESSFULL and write details of it in a textfile called xdadevunlock.dll
and place it in My Documents.
-Replace the SIM card ,or put a different SIM card into the phone.
-When prompted for unlocking code input 00000000.
-That's it! ...It worked perfectly on my HTC Alpine ,the so called SPV M1500.
-Do NOT run the application again if the phone has succesfully been unlocked!!!!--there myght be bad things;;just check using a different SIM card,or
even two.and then delete it forever.

Voip and official HTC's WM 6.1 ROM

Hello,
i am having trouble with getting work VOIP on my Kaiser.
I downloaded cabs from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415262&highlight=voip
Now in Settings > Phone is new tab Internet..
but when i run Sip Config Tool V2.0.1, fill in all fields, click on Save Configuration
application crashes due to error "Invalid argument passed to DMProcessConfigXML"
So i tried to create _setup.xml and cab to set it up this way, but when I try to install this cab i get "Installation of voip.cab was unsuccessful"
Is there any problems with generic HTC rom and VOIP?
thanks for any advice

Hello,
I got exactly the same problem ... Have you found a solution ?
Thanks,

I also can't solve it and simple download PortSIP.
Several month I can't any problem with VoIP on my Kaiser.
It a free tool. No registration.
