From reading the posts, I found the TomTom6 trial download from the HTC site. Will it work in the US??
yes
Yes, it works fine for me. It even alows you to download a city of your choice for free. However, the map is lousy here in the states though.

Thanks John. Every time I try to install it, it tells me that my memory is insufficient. I have a ton of memory. Any problems installing yours?

I did not have any problem installing it at all. What ROM are you using?
John
I had the same issue.
Kept telling me my storage was critically low and would not install. I had over 45 MB of free storage.
I had to basically remove all my apps to get it to install. I then was able to reinstall my third party apps.
(Note - when I installed it first thing after the ROM upgrade it installed fine. I then removed it and installed my apps. It was when I tried to reinstall it the issue began.)

It installs fine but as soon as it finishes and shows you the directions to change over the button assignments it starts that there was an error that says "Voice Command has encountered a problem. Restart Voice Command and try again". I have restarted the software, rebooted the phone, etc. Nothing seems to solve the problem. It basically tries to load into memory and then craps out.
The software was installed every time on the Main Memory, never on the memory card. The version I'm using is 1.5. I have installed this software dozens of times as I have redone the OS on the MDA many many times to find something that works perfectly. It was working perfectly on Xceilins (sp?)'s last official ROM.

1.50 doesn't work with AKU 3.2. You need to obtain 1.60.
Thanks, so it is confirmed that 1.6 will work. Thanks!

Doc P is quick on the draw here!

Oh yeah 1.6 works fine with this ROM.
Hi all,
Finally WM6. Great!
But after installing the Tofclock ROM, my device became unstable like many others have reported. So when C_Shekar published his ROM, I installed it.
No problems on stability anymore, but after this upgrade I can no longer use my Bluetooth functions properly.
I can pair with my GPS, but as soon as I try running GPS software the device becomes slow and will reset after some time. After that, only turning bluetooth on will cause a reset, no matter if I'm paired or even using it at all.
So I re-installed the Tofclock ROM, because there I had at least GPS. But now it was no longer working there either.
Today I even downgraded to AKU3.5 and even a 'pre-historic' version of 2003 (1.70) but it does not work anymore for any of the ROMs.
Can someone please help me on this one. I understood from other posts that I'm not the only one, so it's not just my Hima. But I really would like to have my GPS back.

Which indicates that it is an hardware failure and not a software problem.
Flashing the device with another ROM version does not destroy any hardware at all.
Sascha
Thanks for your response.
But if it is just a hardware problem that can't be caused by an upgrade, how come I'm not the only person experiencing the same issue that started at the same time?
If it was just me it simply could have been bad luck.......
I'm just still not sure of my conclusions, but everything points at the upgrade to WM6. Let this be a warning!
I have not seen any similar reports in any threads before. Can you link us to specific messages?
It is very well possible that it's a software problem. After all you're probably using the same GPS/BT software in all these ROM up/downgrades you tried?
My GPS software is entirely on my SD card, after flashing a new ROM and formatting my RAMdisk it instantly knows my last position. Your software has IMHO probably messed up some file on your SD card that's related to your BT/GPS settings or so. I advice you to format your SD card, reinstall the clean GPS software on it, see if it still misbehaves.

You also entered a reply back then ;-)
I will re-install my GPS software. However, I've tried other programs as well with the same result (i.e. Speed Sentry). But that might be because I tried it after a first reset. And the reboot also appears when I have a different SD card in the slot.
Right now I'm waiting for my backup battery to be empty. Who knows, a 'real' hard reset might help.
@Maggy
Seems you were right! Removing the battery didn't work so I checked my GPS program's files. I found a recently changed file for the config and after I removed it it seems to work again!
Still a big puzzle why it started when I changed to WM6. But I'm updating my ROM at this moment so I hope to be able to answer the question if it is WM6 related soon.
Thanks for the help!
You're welcome.
And yes, you're right that I replied to that post but my memory is in my PC and XDA, not in my head
It's possible that there's a tiny difference between the way the config file is written in WM6 or WM2003, so switching from one OS to the other messes the file up.
I have the good habit of formatting the SD card when I flash a ROM.
Glad this item looks solved.
Even better: it doesn't look solved, but it is solved.
I went home using my GPS! YESSSS!
Knowing this it's time I start cooking my own ROM......... thanks to all the great people at this forum.
Hello All
After having read the message, I just try TOMTOM 6 with RBT2001 and have the same problem, tomtom is very slow, and after some time soft reset.
And I have this problem with the new ROM: 7.0c.40CS (WM6 AKU 7.0)
And I had no problems with the ROM: 7.0b.40CS (WM6 AKU 7.0)
If this can help you understand the problems ?
I guess you should delete \Storage Card\ttnavigator.bif, then reinstall Tomtom
It's even much simpler: simply delete the \TomTom Navigator 6\navigator.cfg file. You'll have to redo some configuration, but it works great again.

Hi all,
Following on my problems with installing tomtom on the Kaiser shiped ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349842), I would greatly appreciate if someone can provide me with an English dumped ROM that includes tomtom, or allows for tomtom to be installed without having to perform some sort of hack to do so.
Thanks in advance...
TomTom was never included in the ROM. It was on the CD that came with the phone.
Right, but this means that your version of the OS is allowing tomtom to be installed...
Mine gives me an error message thet I have to upgrade my ROM before trying to install.
Also on the HTC shop site, where you can buy tomtom, it clearly states that it will work only on devices that were shiped with tomtom on the first place.
Therefore, I assume that your version will be the one that allows to install tomtom flawlesly...
So if it's not too mutch trouble...

locate the cab file, mine gave me the same error when installing from pc. just run the cab and it should load, no problemo
I have the hong kong version tytn II, and installed the tom tom and downloaded a free map without any problem, i just install it for the fun of it, since tom tom in hong kong is useless, downloaded the cab from somewhere.
In hong kong tom tom is non existance, we use map king, so i think as long as the ppc is wm5 or 6, in should be ok to install.
kms
if i reflash my rom, will i be able to download another free map? i kinda downloaded the wrong city. THanks.

I tried that and it's not working... Krypt told me about how to overcome this in the tread mentioned in my original post, but this way I can only start the executable by going there with file explorer.
What I wanted to do is to have tomtom listed in the start->programs folder. I suppose there is a way to do so by tampering with the registry, but I have no clue as to how to do it.
I uninstalled QuickGPS (stupid move, in retrospect) and now want to reinstall it. I downloaded the HTC_QuickGPS cab from Dutty's site but get this error message when I try to install it: Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions.
I am not a developer or a techie. I searched this forum for 'reinstall QuickGPS' but didn't find anything.
I'm also thinking of doing a hard reset and not loading the AT&T bloatware but there are a few programs from it (especially GetMail_at_t) that I want and am wondering if I'll get the same error message.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Have you soft reset? I get that message when another program is still in memory (Comm Manager, etc.). Additionally, I HIGHLY recommend hard resetting and not letting the bloatware install. Just did that for my buddy's tilt and he saw a HUGE performance gain. Anything you like from the bloatware is available on this forum as a cab. I understand not being comfortable voiding the warranty by ROM flashing (although that makes a far bigger/better difference). However, the bloatware sucks pretty bad. Plus, then you're sure QuickGPS is installed correctly, etc. I will say, he had a data issue after the hard reset. If you do it and have trouble with your data, assure your ISP settings are correct.
Just FYI: Sucks when no one post their results.
I was having the same problem and the soft reset worked. Thanks Guilf.
Worked for me too soft reset n it installed thanks
slightly different problem
im using Medkid's ROM. with radio version Radio version - 1.65.24.36. this ROM doesnt have QuickGPS pre-installed, so i had to download the cab file and install, but this is what i get,
it seems to install, but when i try to run the program, i get an error message saying
"the file QuickGPS" cannot be opened. either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. if the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
i have tried reinstalling, not worked. i even tried a QUICKGPS patch i found on the internet, which contained a quickgps.reg file and a quickgps.exe as well. DID NOT WORK EITHER>
any suggestions?
try this one out HTC QuickGPS 1_00_220821_00.cab
i know this is a little late but i had the problem now and i fixed it
here is what todo:
eventhough i uninstalled quickgps and the program was not in the program list, it was still running a process, so i used SKTools to 'kill' the process, after that i was able to reinstall QuickGPS...

Agree fully with the above. I flashed my TILT with a barebones HTC Rom (bengalih's BRR-HTC-2.0 Lite ROM), and the device just FLIES compared to the out-of-the-box AT&T setup. The ROM developer included a separate file with all the removed apps available as .cabs, so I installed just what I wanted.

I no newbie when it comes to installing roms, but im encountering my first problem. I installed the genesis 1.5 [WWE 23569] (love it!) and used it for a few days. Then i felt like testing out the Tai [23569 2015 3712 WWE] (also great!) I decided to reinstall the genesis rom again, but now the rom wont finish loading.
Im stuck at the final grey screen where it says "Update in Progress" but no prompt comes up to say the OS was installed successfully. As you all know this process takes less that a few mins to finish... i've been waiting forever.
What can i do? Try another copy of the same rom from another SD Card?
Please help!
In the course of my flash ROM,I had never come across this problem,why not try to format memory card?and do it again....just a advice....
was thinking the same thing, but im looking for alternatives before i track down a card reader lol
why don't you flash directly from your computer ?
I don't think you can flash from the computer without an ActiveSync connection, and for that you need the phone to be working already.

Try the Custom_RUU (Rom Updater Utility) via PC and see if it works
