all are OK BUT NOT IGO
Both CoPilot 7 and Garmin Mobile XT have good GCC maps. I prefer Garmin.
I tried all Arabizer versions, with no luck, I called their cutomer support today & they said we have to wait until they release the ME version.
I have an Arabizer, it worked on my TyTn II, lets see if it works on my wife's Diamond.
Only Modified version of Mobidev arabizer 407 works partially
thanks guys for your help

Sorry guys, maybe this is not the right place where to post this, but i'm new and i need your help.
I bought a TyTN II that come with a Trial version of TomTom but i can only download one map. I tryed to put the maps i purchased in the memory card, but i'm not able to make them to work.
Then i disinstalled the trial version and i install TT6 and it work perfectly, but i need to use an external GPS because in the version of my TT6 there isn't the build in GPS.
There is a driver to make it work?
Thx in advance.

Yes there is you go to tomtom configuration and select other NMEA as the GPS device setting.
PS I will merge this with existing tomtom GPS threads in a while!!
Mike
You mean i can use the TT6 with the built in GPS like that?
Great!!! and thx!
How about if i want to use the TT6 that come with the TyTN II and the maps i purchased before?
Is that also possible, or that version can work only with the map you download?
I really can't figure out where to put the folders with others maps
Anyway thank you so much i will try what you told me.

YES - you can use it like that - it works very well. (some folks have to as they do not get the free version on disk)
I use my original tomtom but I believe you can use the one from the disk alongside your previously purchased maps - so long as the maps is in the right location -

Hi guys,
I have a couple of issues which need your helping hands.
1, Do you know where can I get the GPS turn by turn guidance maps for Persian Gulf Countries e.g Qatar, Bahrain, U.A.E? Rightnow, the only source I found is CleverMaps. However, they charge the hefty price ($179 for 30MB of maps!) not included the price of OCN5. Furthermore, there is no Kaiser in their compatible devices list, either!
Too bad is tomtom doesn't have these kinda maps.
2, What are the fonts and keyboard applications should I install to the Kaiser in order to make it displays and inputs Arabic characters correctly?
TIA.
I live in Abu Dhabi and use Garmin XT. You can buy this now on an SD card thats perfect for the 'Kaiser'
Also, Destinator do a PDA map program for the Mid East but it is not as good at recognising your location when off-road.
The Garmin XT SD card is available from most big electronics stores in the ME for about USD99.
They are both Enlish text but I think the new ME Garmin may have Arabic language files also.
Check out the www.persianforum.net forum, some guys on there may be able to help you.
Salam,
Tks for the link to persian forum, but i have difficulty to read & understand because I'm learning Arabic now.
May I ask you some more questions?
1. Are you running City Navigator Middel east v3 and Garmin XT ver. 4.10.40w? Where can I find Garmin XT in Qatar or I have to purchase it in USA?
2. Do you recommend any keyboard application for Arabic input?

Nav software for ME
TomTom none
Route66 but ME maps maybe 2006
Navigon Version 6 has ME maps and may be 2007, my choice BTW
Destinator 7 has ME maps 2006/2Q
Myeasynav works on WM5 with 2005 maps but not hopeful for WM6
Garmin products suppose to have up to date maps of ME guess late 2006,
IGO also have ME support not sure of date of maps but at least 2006
Note most companies don't seem to list ME maps on thier sites but they are available
Have a look at Dubai forums for Arabizer help http://mobilitydubaiforums.com/eve/forums/a/frm/f/6141068401

No Arabizer exists for the Kaiser yet. There is one from imaginet but it messes up ur fonts and slows down ur phone.
Have installed imaginet 2.0, works fine on my kaiser...
parzifal, link please?
arabic software
Guys this software by paragon to enable arabic for pocket pcs.
Please note it does not work with wm 6.1
cuz my phone did not start after installation and had to flash it all over again,
so beware
Which GPS software works best?
I am having difficulty installing CoPilot 7 (came with my Cruise but I never used it so I have the license and maps). I'm looking for something that has support for GCC maps because I'm in Dubai
Can I ask what issues you are having with installing Copilot? I was thinking of running Copilot 7 when I get my device and would be interested to hear. Is it because the Diamond doesn't have an MicroSD slot and Copilot only comes on SD? Or is it because it is a Cruise specific version?
Incidently, found this on the Copilot support site ("How do I recreate my V7 PPC SD card ?") which may help...
http://support.alk.eu.com/cgi-bin/alk.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=649&p_created=1194449850&p_sid=v9jItB5j&p_accessibility=0&p_lva=&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPSZwX3NvcnRfYnk9JnBfZ3JpZHNvcnQ9JnBfcm93X2NudD0yMDUmcF9wcm9kcz0mcF9jYXRzPSZwX3B2PSZwX2N2PSZwX3NlYXJjaF90eXBlPWFuc3dlcnMuc2VhcmNoX25sJnBfcGFnZT0x&p_li=&p_topview=1
Looking at the PDF it contains, it theoretically should allow you to install to and run on the Diamond. Don't know until I get my Diamond, but worth a go.
Good luck.
I'd really like to get Copilot working. The one I have is Copilot 7 but the message I get is "you are not authorized to install this version of the software on this device" - although the Copilot Central [PC] software recognises the phone as a compatible device!
Did you register Copilot on your Cruise?
Have you posted a support question to ALK? They may have an answer.
Sounds like its either pre-registered on another device, or more likely, it isn't compatible with WM6.1. Have you downloaded the latest version through Copliot Live. I think they did an update amonth or so ago. Hopefully that may be WM 6.1 compatible.
I got my Cruise in April and never registered or even installed Copilot so it's definitely not been used. Still fiddling around with it before I post a support question as I've only had the phone a few hours. Thanks for the tip- checking now for an update
I haven't got my diamond ... yet.
But with Co-pilot 6 I had a similar error, and needed to "uninstall" the license via the web just to upgrade 6.0.1 to 6.0.4. In CP6 this was a bit of a pain, according to the documentation it should be easier with CP7??
CoPilot Live 7 : Fixed

Hi there,
i have been having the same sort of problems as you did, i ca't figure out which GPS program to use with my HTC Diamond, and it's a hassle finding maps for Egypt and that are also compatible with the program.
Can you help out in any of these points, i'd apreciate it.

Where did you get the upgrade from if you don't mind me asking.
I used to have a Cruse (with TT), then I lost it just as the MWg Atom V came out So I purchased CoPilot 7 at the same time but never installed it when I realised the MWg was a load of C*********. Now I have a Diamond and an unused CoPilot 7 that I would like to use. I have used the update in the CoPilot Central program. but still no joy.

Possible upgrade to Copilot Central required - I had a similar problem
This was the instruction I was sent by ALK...
1. Please ensure you have exited CoPilot Central on your PC
2. Download the Central Update by going to http://www.alk.eu.com/files/v7/Central_v0.5.52.4_patch.exe and click OPEN / RUN when asked to in your web browser.
3. You should see a message saying "This patch will update CoPilot Central to the latest version". Click OK to proceed
4. Click START and the update will start extracting files to the default location where CoPilot Central is installed to - this should be C:\Program Files\CoPilot\Central - if you have installed CoPilot Central to a different location, please ensure that the patch is installed to the appropriate location.
5. Once complete, start CoPilot Central and go into HELP | ABOUT and you should now see 0.5.108.0
Also to download the latest version of the mobile app manually try here...

I think most of the GPS programs do, but you could try out GPS tuner, which turns your phone into a gps (not turn by turn navigation).
Hi,
For those that have TTN7 installed, connect it to tomtom home (v2.4 or later) and do an update. Tomtom home will install version 7.910 for HTC devices.
Mapshare functions work correctly and gps reception seems to be improved. Not sure what the other changes are yet....
Where can I buy tomtom 7 and UK / Europe maps for Touch Pro. I heard you can't buy TT7 for WinMo ?
Cheers

thats right, you can't buy it, it's sold preinstalled on some devices (diamond & touch pro)
I can provide a link with the 7.910 CAB file if you would like....... maps you can buy @ tomtom.com
Have you got a link of where to buy the maps on the tomtom site? Thanks

A cab would be great!
maps can be purchased from tomtom home once the app is installed. Or you can goto the mapstore on tomtom home. All maps have to be installed via tomtom home. When you install the ap; you will be given the opportunity to download a free city map. Make sure you do this as tomtom will not work without a map installed - it will just exit
here is the TTN 7.910 (9185) CAB

Note: this does NOT include voices, maps or keygenerators of any kind!
maps you can buy at tomtom.com

Just to make this thread clear (before it is reported erroneously) the program ON ITS OWN is fine to post....posting maps/voices etc... is NOT ok and should be reported.

if you used the 7.450 version, you have to reactivate your map.
if you used the 7.451 version, everything should work normaly after installation

The new version of tomtom navigator which maps are suitable?
I can only find new ones with maps for version 8.
And the old one that i used : 7.450 is not compatible, because i tried to crack this version again, but still needs an activation.
Do you have any link for a map for 7.45.1?
Note: this does NOT include voices, maps or keygenerators of any kind!
maps you can buy at tomtom.com
this version will ONLY work if you have a Diamond or Touch Pro!
I know but i'm dutch
Thanks!
Mod Edit: Yes asking about cracking/warez is not cool in this forum, take it elsewhere. strike 1
I have confirmed 7.910 works just fine if you had the 451 activated.
Thanks for the cab!
My art/cars folders stopped working, anyone else?
Any improvement with the GPS-Lag?
Hello, No improvement on my Raphael with this new version...

Maybe someone can make a Repack for the X1 ?
Thx alot.

My cars/art folder works fine.
NO improvement on the GPS Lag. It's the phone, NOT the programs.
This version rocks!
I'm quitte happy now!
I installed the newest version and reïnstalled the maps again.
Things that are major improvements:
- Keyboard problem with incorrect characters are solved. [Touch pro]
- For me to get a GPS fix improved a lot. It is still 1 minute, but depends on what my current location is. When i'm driving 10m the fix is getting there amazingly fast. (Before also, but now better)
- The application in total with loading streets, zipcodes etc is much faster than before.
Only the lag is still there, it's not really much, because i guess it's maybe 5 up to 10 metres max.
Please tell your experiences because i hear a lot of mixed results.

Hello!
Your links is dead, rapidshare says something about it being only possible to be downloaded 10 times and further action to be needed by the uploader... could you reupload it or upload somewhere else (if you ask me I's suggest mediafire ).
Thanks in advance.

Works great on Ameo, with card 720.1803 - No reactivating needed.

Maybe I am blind.

TomTom Navigator...
Try here!
This is the latest version available at the moment for PDA's. If you want version 7, you'll have to wait for it to be released I'm afraid.
This is a link to the german tomtom site offering version 7
http://www.tomtom.com/products/product.php?ID=542&Category=2&Lid=3
On O2 devices (and maybe others, except on vodafone diamonds, i don't know) in germany there is a version 7.450 preinstalled. There's a updated version 7.910 available (don't know where) and Maps are also available at e.g. tomtom.com
You should find it in the wide internet world
