GPS in Dubai - Mr. mkhattab - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I'm getting the Touch Diamond later in the day. I heard from a friend that there is no maps on the phone. Can Mr. mkhattab please advice me how he got the maps & the required softwares, as he is also from Dubai. This is the first item I'm buying with GPS. I have no idea how to get the subscription for it

My friend you dont need any subscription
just download navigon or garmin softwares as iGo doesnt work on Touch diamond.
You can download the software with the maps through www.ce4arab.com:)

is the diamond available in Dubai?

Well... here you go then
1. Go to https://buy.garmin.com/shop/store/downloadsUpdates.jsp?product=010-11034-00&cID=138&pID=11413 and download the latest version of the unit software for Windows Mobile (currently 4.20.50w )
2. Download the free basemap and the support files from the same page
3. Install them in that order- make sure your phone is connected well before installing so the install wizard can detect the Internal Storage partition
4. I'm trying to find the map download link on Garmin.com- I could've sworn I had it bookmarked with these- the one you need is City Navigator Middle East v4
5. Not really sure how well (if at all) this application functions on a trial basis (I purchased) so maybe you can try it and let us know

yes sir
can u tell where did u get it from?
maybe online??

It's not through any shop. A company here in Dubai takes HTC in bulk quantity for their staff. They get the corporate rate. I took 1 piece from the company & paid their rate

He Zaki 67. What Happened. There is everything available in Dubai and it neighbours, especially Saudi Arabia. You just search for the latest thing on the internet, go to Jarir Bookstore and you will find the that thing available there. You will even find the coming soon also there.
Thanks

Installing TomTom 6.032 on AT&T Tilt

I tried installing TomTom 6.032 on my Tilt with the Cingular ROM and I got an error message that said I needed to update my ROM. I loaded the HTC ROM on my device and I still got the same error. Any ideas?

Did you hard spl or sspl? i curious if other people who originally could use tomtom can't reinstall once their spl changes. (i could experiment with mine, but i'm waiting until i have a reason to "fix what ain't broke")
I ran into this as well. When looking inside the .cab, it seems that there are specific models listed in the security file. I think it could be that the name of the device identifier was changed so the cingular branded version could not install the .cab
just my guess...

I used Pof's Hard SPL to load the HTC ROM.
To test, I installed the Hard SPL on my 4550 and the Kaiser OEM TomTom still works. I did not try to reinstall mind you, just see if it still worked.

Same here. I was planning to get a Tilt as well but if TT has problems it will be quite pointless for me.
I hope we get some feedback from other Tilt owners as well.

The TomTom "Taster" version pulled from some Kaisers that has been posted on the site will not install as of now on the Tilt, but any other standard version of Tomtom will work fine on it.

Thanks for the update. But when you say "will work fine" did you actually try it or is it an assumption?
The link I've posted for RK is the latest 6.03 regular install not the taster version. So let's see whether he can get it going.

Meaning that by installing HardSPL prevents the installation?
In that case, no. I tried installing it on the stock ATT ROM prior to HardSPL with the same results.
As the error states, it's the device ID that seems to be at issue. Narrowing down exactly what TomTom is looking for and "adjusting" it accordingly certainlly seems to be the solution.

I already had the maps that I bought a year ago.
I'm trying to give TomTom some love since I can't get my Garmin Mobile XT to work with the onboard GPS, but I can't get a map to try it out. Site is still down. Not very good timing on their part. If I can't get a test map in the next few days, I'll be looking elsewhere.
ok, so the 6.03 installs on the Tilt, but doesnt really mean anything because it doesnt read internal GPS, and I tried the 6.032 version, but of course it tells me to "update ROM" (thanks AT&T and/or TomTom)...does anyone have the 6.032 version that isnt restricted and will install on the Tilt? I looked around and doesnt look like anyone has posted it...
cabinet files would be especially helpful (if they exist for 6.032)

indeed. at least tomtom from cruise works. IGO8 doesn't, tho. shmug =/
wait for it to be out on an operator - probably a month, then we'll see roms with TT7 inside them.
I really do hope so, but as far as my knowledge goes, operators *REMOVES* tomtom. they want people to use their GPS system ie; AT&T TeleNAV.

It's not the version on the Cruise CD, mate. it's tomtom 6.032, the latest one. I'm not sure, but I think you can extract the tomtom directories from your cruise to your diamond
I'm running Garmin Mobile XT (latest version) on my Diamond and it's excellent. Very smooth and rich interface
there is a supposed tomtom7(check athena mobile 6 forums). though that is not the true tt7. the real one is under beta. and it also has a different look(not that much different though) than any of the ones out there now.
Extracting the new TomTom7
Is someone here able to extract the new tomtom7 from the new htc touch diamond rom??
htc claims its in the new rom embedded and not extractable

listen, there is NO TOMTOM7! and it is not in the ROM.
maybe not in your country,but in holland and england it is. tomtom doesnt release any info and isnt gonna sell it as softwarepack because of all the piracy with ver.6
so if you so sure it doesnt excisist thenw why are two official websites talking about it and verifying it

nor is it embedded....

This covers the HTC5800, yeah?

What can I do with this phone other then what it does out of the box?
Theres so little information and work I can find on it.
hey buddy,
there isnt alot of things that can be done with the phone right now.. which company do u have it from?
the first would be App Unlock your phone to be able to install applications .. jsut search on google "app unlock S620" and follow that procedure...
I have a wm6.0 running so i have a couple of skins and stuff installed... most of the stuff that can work on the Vox Forums can work on libra as well. besides the roms ofcourse.
if you got any other questions holla for sure... i know it was a pain for me to find any information on the phone!

surprised me too! the poor phone still doesn't have enough ram and is missing wifi, otherwise it would be perfect.
I just picked up one of these phones yesterday and am still getting used to not having a touch screen. If I'm not mistaken this phone does have the GPS. What's the process for getting it to work with Google Maps, etc?
Thanks
no this phone doesnt have gps....
it has the processor which is needed to have gps... but apparently it doesnt work with any company...
iv looked around for a fix .. but no one has found out one...
and 5800 doesnt have wifi built in either

Can't find certain apps on Market

Hey guys, i have a little problem with my market. I'm searching for some applications on market, but i just can't find them.
First one is Gameboid(GBA emulator). I was only able to find the lite version, but since i like it alot, i want to buy the full version. Problem is, i can't find the full version anywhere. Even if i'm redirected from the Lite version so i would buy it, it gives and error that the app wasn't found on Android Market. It's just wierd, cause i can find it here: http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.androidemu.gba and here: http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-androidemu-gba-jtqn.aspx .
Other app is the aBTC Bittorrent client. I can't find that either. Are apps region locked or something?

Just did a search, it is still up there. Full version for 3.99USD.
As said before, the market is region locked (it determines this based on your SIM card, IIRC). Paid apps aren't available in all regions.
I live in the US with a US phone and I can't find any paid apps at all either. They were there the other day, gone now.

Telmap Navigator for O2 Germany customers

Hi, I have bought the HD7 from O2 DE and in the hubs is Telmap Navigator, which says, that its free for O2 DE customers.
Does anybody know when it will be available? In the hub is says in a while...
Yes I would also like to know :-]
Latest info from O2 (11 hours ago) says, it´ll probably out in about 2 weeks from now.

And? I think, that maps could be bought.
But I have a feeling, that the application will not arrive until the MS update, because this one could be the one which would deserve multitasking...
And by the way, I think, that the OS already has multitasking, but has only list of allowed apps which can run in this mode. Otherwise it would not synchronize emails on background or play the music in background.
is there some more info on the telmap navigator ?

This is what I am expecting that will happen when the full version will be available. And also it is the reason why I haven't uninstall it.
It looks that the navigation is already out, but still not available as an upgrade for the german O2 customers.
