Not trying to start 1000 threads related to TomTom on the phone, but there seems to be a reoccurring issue with people wanting to get TomTom working on their AT&T Tilt. A lot of people, including myself earlier today, were running into issues with most of the posted files working on the AT&T Tilt. We'd get the message about the ROM being needed to be upgraded. Well buried deep in one of the TomTom threads there was a post by d12ag0n49 pointing to http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JZI2MQES (rar archive with password elrincondedey) that seems to solve the problem for AT&T Tilt users.
I have also uploaded just the cab file onto rapidshare without a password at:
http://rapidshare.com/files/62623762/ttn_6_032_8351_HTCNLD.cab.html
This version appears to work just fine on the AT&T tilt. It does not come with any maps and does link to getting the one free map online (although link never loaded for me). Just simple add the cab file onto your Tilt and install away. You'll have a single voice to choose from without getting additional voices.
Hope this helps.

i hear you... but man niether one wants to work for me. i guess im sh** out of luck.
but a question. you say just put the cab file in the tilt.
now in laymans terms i need more! assuming i have not installed anything related to tt where would i install this cab file?
Using ActiveSync you need to copy over the .cab file onto your phone (or maybe you can just save it through your browser on the phone). Once you have got it on the phone, you need to use File Explorer to navigate to the directory you saved it in. Find it and run it and it should install after that. What problem are you getting?
This TomTom .cab installed fine, and now I'm configuring it. I haven't finished, but just wanted to pause and thank you for the Female Eva voice from the NETHERLANDS! Like I understand that!

LOL yea might be a bit difficult, but at least you can see what's going on, right? If someone wants to post up detailed instruction on changing the voices/languages please do!
lol geez i think im going to give up
ok via sync i have "explore" which opens the phone.
1 i have copied the whole file and tried also just the contents...no luck you click on files nothing
2 i have copied the file and tried also just the contents into "my mobile phone"...no luck you click on files nothing
its as if after i copy them into the phone the are useless
the closest i have came is with one of the downloads it came as a install wizard which would extract it. but the phone says i need to update rom.
lets say I have a bunch of maps. how do I installthem so tom tom can see them?
lets say you share those maps...ahaha jk
this is where i need to be. try installing that ver (above links) of tt and then i believe you can use tt home or manually install your self in the proper directory.
i just cant get tt itself to install AAARRRGGG
good luck

you're disconnecting your phone from activesync, then using file explorer on your phone to "click" on the cabs you copied over, right?

If you click on a .cab file in file explorer on your phone, it shouldn't "open" (as in let you see the various files within the .cab), it should simply start installing. Not sure what's going on with you.
For those looking for voices, just google free tomtom voices, there are multiple places to find them (and there are some available directly from TomTom). Once you find the ones you want, you just copy those files directly into the "voices" folder that TomTom created. For me, it's in the root of my storage card. For maps, it created a "My documents" folder on my storage card, and the maps are stored in there. Once you get the maps and voices saved in the locations it expects them to be, you just switch to that voice and map in "preferences" within TomTom.
Hate to gloat, but I got TomTom6 working on my Tilt and it works great. Forget the english voices, go for the Darth Vader one!
A quick google search for "tomtom voices" yields a ton of sites.

the cab file for the t-mobile usa "T-Mobile HotSpot zone" app? I think it is this file: Signed_2005_11_24_TOHTC_wispa_PPC_Release_v1_0_1_1 .CAB that i found in a list of files in the extrom. its the one in the official rom for the mda that lets you put in your hotspot login info so you dont have to keep going to the hotspot web page. or, is there another way to only have to put this info in once somewhere on my phone? thanks in advance.
wergeld
edited to reflect cab name.
You can access the \extended_rom if you use Total Commander to read the .cab and copy it do any ROM you like.
true. but i do not have the tmobile rom installed anymore. i am using yours =P
if i have dled the official tmobile rom is there a way i can access the files from my pc without flashing my phone? like a rom explorer? i will check on that. this is what happens when i get up at 3am.....brain stops working after hour 14.
wergeld
well after using the typhoon extractor, i am still at a loss. cant seem to find that file in there. amazing how this question has now turned into a development quest. hrmmm. i dont know my next step. any pointers?
wergeld
If you really need it, why not flash the TMobile ROM, copy the .cab to the storage card and putting back WM5SE?
because that would be....simple ha!
yea, i might have to do it.
thought i could do it from the .nbf file but i couldnt. alas...
UPDATE
pulled out the cab file from the latest release. it was a different name. weird. but here we go. if anyone else wants that cab let me know.
wergeld
and i am golden. after almost ****ting myself when i had a power failure (ahh florida) during a rom flashing. got to bootloader okay so just re-flashed mun-ruu and all good. i have the cab file for the hotspot login if anyone would like. also, i might add, a clean pair of undies after the almost-brick. was funny because my first thought was "crap now i have to buy the Kaiser!"
wergeld
udpate: well, the hotspot app keeps saying it cant find a t-mobile hotspot even when i am 4 feet from one and it shows full bars on reception and i am browsing the intarwebs. alas, it was not meant to be.
I have obtained the USA & Canada maps but I'm missing the ''install'' file that will get tomtom to recognize the map. Any clue on how i can TOMTOM to regonize the map from my SD? (also tomtom home does not find the map either)
Possibly someone can show me where i can attach the install file to the map? I tried to search but could not find anything.

Not sure what format your map is in but if it's a folder with the map and other files in then just put the folder on the root of the SD card. If it's compressed (Zip etc) then extract it first. Tomtom should auto search for map files when it opens.
Maybe you could say what format the file is in.

Well when I installed TT and downloaded the one city map for free, it saved that in my \StorageCard\My Documents\<cityname> folder. The Western European maps I had I just copied into \StorageCard\My Documents\Western_Europe, started TomTom and did a 'switch map' in the menu. Asked me for the code and voila, it worked. Maybe a similar thing will work for you.

Yes, it is likely set to look in specific places so in your example it's
StorageCard\My Documents\Western_Europe
and mine works on
StorageCard\GB_plus_major_roads_of_Western_Europe
I'm not sure if the OP has downloaded to PC though.

Wow, I'd *LIKE* to be able to specify where it looks for maps - cluttering up the root directory is so ugly. Does anyone know if this is a registry key or other configurable location? (I've never seen a path in TomTom 6.030)
TIA,

Agreed. the root of my storage card looks like HELL because of tomtom. I wish I knew if I could delete most of it or just move it all into a 'tomtom' subfolder.

Please PM if you figure this out. For one, I can't stand having it so cluttered, and two, I want to know what can safely be deleted. I mean, it's taking up a full gig on my storage card. Anyone know how to get rid of the canada maps? That should free up some space.
I have all my files associated with the map contained in a folder with the exact same name as the map - so no clutter of random tomtom files.
e.g.
In my case I have on the root of the SD Card:
Folder named:
GB_Plus_Major _Roads_of Western_Europe
Inside this folder is the actual Map file also called:
GB_Plus_Major _Roads_of Western_Europe
Also in the folder are all my safety camera files, favourites file etc etc maybe 40-50 files.
I'm not certain how "deep" tomtom will look. In other words will it find maps buried more than 1 tree level down? I assume not, but at least that allows all the files to be put in a tomtom specific folder. I can only assume therefore that the above poster who has his map in the Mydocuments folder has it as a file not in a folder and lots of the subsidiary files kicking around inside MyDocuments. I prefer a named folder on the root purely for Tomtom maps etc..

Right, but if you load various regional maps, you have a bunch of directories in your root: e.g. for the USA you might have AL,CO,FL,NY maps - except they're all clusters of states so it might be AL_LA_GA_FL and CO_WY_NV_AZ and NY_NJ_PA etc.
For Mapopolis I had: MAPS\FL, MAPS\CO, MAPS\NY, etc... so only 1 directory in the root was Mapopolis data.
TT6 does not appear to look anywhere below the root of the storage card for maps - at least it did NOT work when I tried to move all my map directories into TomTomMaps\xxxxxx.
The "key" I'm interested in would be something like "TomTomRoot = \" and change it to "TomTomRoot = \TomTomMaps\"
Does that make sense?

Erm, mine are in storage card/Tomtom/GB map. Have always had it this way, in version 5 and 6. (6.030). Are you talking about something else here?
All my voices,POI etc are also in their own folders in the Tomtom folder on my card. In fact the only thing that isn't is the 7 digit postcode search which is on the device memory.

Nope, that's exactly what I'd like - if I move all those folders to \Storage Card\TomTom\ then neither TomTomHOME nor the PPC app see the maps, etc.
I wonder if there's a file in your TomTom program directory which has that path in it somehow?

Ok, go ahead and bash me, I have been trying for two weeks and still do not get it. I have read post over and over and simply do not understand the "computer lingo". I have a ATT Tilt 8925. I have installed the HTC Home screen with the customize application. I live in Thibodaux Louisiana and the only city I can get is New Orleans which is 60 miles away. My Tilt has a factory ROM and the only things i installed were:
HTC Home plugin
HTC home customize
fff Finger friendly finder
large start-up menu
opera mobile 8.65
I do understand that with a new patch I should be able to receive any city. The problem is I DO NOT understand or can not figure out what patch I need. I have read a lot of post, I do not know which one I need because of the "lingo" used. I am a police officers not a tech. Can somebody please assist me in getting my local weather by laying it down in layman's term!!! This would make my tilt complete. I know a lot of guys would be happy.
ok, go ahead and make fun of me, then after please help. If you are willing I would even be glad to give a call to someone.
Thanks again !!!
Ok, here is how I got mine to work. First install HTC home customizer. Then soft reset. Then in HTC home customizer, edit the city and save it to cutom.
Then copy the .dll file to your windows folder on your phone. Soft reset and everything should work.
BTW, unzip the dll file first before you paste it to the windows directory.
Ok, I installed the HTC Custom and it workng fine. I know how to enter the city of choice but I do not understand whats a .dll file, were its located and were to install it.
Are you talking about the windows folder under My Device? And once you show me were this .dll file is, any special place in the windows folder it needs to got. I guess I can cut and paste it there correct.
Thanks for the help, just need a little more info.
What a .dll file and were its located?
What I just did was download the attached file you had and unzipped it on my PC then transported it to my tilt. I cut and paste it under My Device>windows and and paste it at the bottom. Soft reset and still unable to gather data. When selecting a new city. I selected custom and enter my city (Thibodaux)> then my zip code "70301" then country USA. After each selection I tapped "X" to save and at the end I tapped exit.
Any thoughts
Nope thats it. Just soft reset & then go to the weather tap & it should sync.
When I enter my zip code do I enter anything else other than the numbers?
I noticed at the bottom of the tab it had some format/letter etc, all I enter was my zip code numbers?
Also should I be seeing other cities when I am on the home page when I tap the city icon. It only shows my city (Thibodaux).
I do notice when it is searching, the internet is running. Also from the factory it searches using MediaNet I beleive. Also, I am not using a proxy. All my internet setting are from the factory.
Is it possible I have the wrong HTC Cutomizer downloaed. I downloaded the
"v0.8" version the other one was the v1.0????
Tried again and after searching, unable to gather data ETC.
Again, thanks and help!!
I am going to try and install the HTC Customizer on the phone instead of the storage/memory card and see if that will amke a difference. The HTC home and cusotmizer work good being on the storage card. Anyway stand by and will try.
No different, same message; "unable to gather data from selected city"
Okay, Do this. DL the attached file. Unzip & Put both files in \windows directory.
Go to HHC customizer. select the weather tab, selesct custom database, select add city enter you city exactly like this (use your city info of course):
Palo Verdes, CA USA 90732
No periods in USA or after the state abbreviation.
You will only see the citys taht are entered into the custom database, that's why only the one shows up.
Ok, stand by
ok, I downloaded the attached file you have on your last post. I unzipped it on my device and put everything under windows then soft reset and still no luck. I did notice that your file had an Opera icon (weather cities) in it. The other that I downloaded from above did not have this.
Thank for you time, any other suggestions??
I have put so many different files in here to try and get it to work, I will just load my saved "back-up" and start again.
Any help from you guys!! I really would like this application to work. Everything else I have installed has worked w/o problems except this one.
Simple' I just want to be able to located my city!!!!
I can find it on any other weather program.
To make this clear, this are the programs I have installed, is there any more I need?
HTC Home plug In
HTC Home Customize (I believe that the weather patch is installed in this program already?/? correct??)
The attached .dll file that's attached above.
Is this all I need to retrieve other cities??
I am determinded to get this right, as you can see!
Unfortunately I'm not able to help you with the HTC Weather piece, but I am running PocketWeather from http://www.sbsh.net and checked and your city is available in there. So if you are unable to get this fix and still want weather, this is an option. Unfortunately it isn't free, but you could always download a trial and see if it works for you before buying.
Another free option would be WeatherToGo from http://www.tonaya.com/products/wtg/index.php but I don't know if they have your town in there or if it can be customized.
Good luck in your quest.
Thanks, I think I will just go ahead and purchase the sbsh weather.net program if I can not resolve this issue.
1. Install HTC Home Customizer 1.05 whic I think u said u did.
2. Start HTC1.05, in the weather tab, change your city and add to the custom database.
3. Soft reset.
4. Sync phone with pc. (its just easier this way, trust me)
5. Once synced copy the .dll file I uploaded earlier (using ur pc not the phone) and paste it to the windows folder of your phone.
6. Soft reset.
7. Now you must be able to access the internet with your phone for all of this to work. Click the weather tab and click in the area where it asks you to and it will download your weather data.
Hope this helps.
I downloaded the v0.8 version of the cutomizer, does this amake a difference?
Did you go back into customizer & re-enter the custom city data & make sure there are no periods?
I've followed your directions, when I tried to paste the dll file into my windows directory through my PC, the windows directory did not show up. So I tried to copy it from the my documents directory to the windows directory using the file explorer on the phone and it said it could not copy over the file due to access restrictions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I live in Idaho and the closest city I can get is 4 hours away.

Ok you are just trying to find an HTC Home that will let you get your local weather? If i am correct, then download and install these files in order:
http://weather.not2advanced.com/files/SdkCerts.cab
http://weather.not2advanced.com/files/htchome-2.1-n2a.cab
http://www.pocketemu.com/request11.html
Once all 3 are installed, run the customizer and set up your weather!
I've got mine to work with all the aforementioned assistance. However, it only updates the weather either via WIFI or ActiveSync. Is there no way to get this to work through the proxy?
Thanx.
Ericc191, thanks for that post. I'm wondering if that will make a city work that doesn't work when you edit the xml? I tried before doing the regedit change to add my code in, but it still couldn't find it through accuweather.
Have been using my new tytn II for the past weeks, so am a newbie to this XDA-dev malarky and think its all great and fandabiousy, (preverbial) 'BUT' am having problems with lost bluetooth files......
I use a mac on leopard with bluetooth file exchange for data transfer/cabs etc. with the latest rom wmbile 6.1 from HTC site.
Also use the 'missing sync' as a go between instead of 'active sync' but tend to drop files across using the standard bluetooth file exchange as that seems to work more consistently than the desktop mount or instal option of the 'missing sync' -
tytn tells me that it is accepting the files and then says 'do I want to save file to device' I select 'yes' with no option for where to place them this means that I end up having to hunt throughout the device for the transfered file, which consistently is invisible to the naked eye
If I use the search it does not tell me where the files are being stored and does not offer any advanced options (that bit just does not seem to be playing at all no matter what it searches on) so I double click a cab from the search menu and it instals
From a file management perspective this is a nightmare as I presumably have redundant cab files somewhere on the phone and data which is just hoggin space
Have searched the forums here and htc and the blogs and the wider yhoo/ggle for the past day etc. But to no avail nothing on where this pesky little blighters are being stored or transferred to or no info on how to direct them to a folder of my choice.
So the million dollar question is.......... where they go? (presume there is a default)
The two million dollar question is .......... can I manage these more efficiently with better software? (if so any pointers)
And the three million dollar question is .......... How many smarties did it take to build the london underground?
All help much appreciated in full!

The default is under the Devices documents folder ( My device ----->My Documents using file explorer) . I also use a macbook pro. Best bet is to transfer things to a cardreader. MUCH faster and you dont have to worry about dropping out in the middle of a large file transfer.
Also, depending on the rom, there is also the option for an actual "Bluetooth transfers" folder which i also believe to be under the "My documents" folder on the device.
you are a guiness sir ! loads of cans found and deleted !

Simply copy the maps onto the root of the sd card once downloaded. When you start uo tt6 ( im running tt7) it should ask for your key. Input it and all is good

my problem is found in the access to the maps - tomtom use 'home' software to download and pair with the device unfortunately this does not work with tytn and mac so am stuck at the 'turn your device on and pair' screen. with no links to my legitimate map downloads etc,
(have only found tomtom 6 navigator to work without crashing my tytn...)
have emailed tomtom to see if they can give me a manual cab download rather than this messy software malarky! still waiting reply.....
Well, just when i think I have things figured out. If a cab is right for my phone, how do I get it onto the phone. Can I do it by the USB hooking it up to my Desktop and then copy and paste into the phone from the desktop? How do I then look at the phone and see if that cab is really there and launch it??
I have a file that tells me it's a CAB file to launch the BTAG that activates the Bluetooth settings and Voice Mail 1.6. It is from a cooked ROM and I only want this one CAB....
Thanks

Just put the .cab in intern memory or your storage card. Launch it (by clicking on it) via File Explorer.

hmm, the question is ok but not as a new thread, not in dev; how about general - newbies questions?
I really do hope that you don't make it a habit of yours starting new threads for every single question you have, urgent or not
thx for helping him
to finalize: use disk drive mode to get it to your phone via usb (activesync might lead to data conversion), you are able to select the target folder, disconnect, open a file explorer, navigate to your dir containing the cab and click/double click it for installation
depending on the cab it will either be installed (to device mem) or you will be asked where to install it (device mem or sd)
done and best
