TomTom 6.032 postcode (zip)

Hi All,
I have a working TTN 6.032 on my UK T Mob VIII, but the postcode (zip) function works in 4 digits only. It's a downloaded copy. What file/folder should I have for the postcodes to work and where should the file/folder be? All help appreciated!
Edit: Now sorted- Zip folder should be in root of SD card not within a TomTom folder.

Warez? I don't think this is the place for asking help for your copied software.

Alright then picky, downloaded from the TT site.

open a support call with tomtom, they'll email you a new copy
Edit - just seen you've solved it

Please post a link to 6.032 on the TomTom website - I've seen 6.030 up there, but nothing later....
TIA,
Richard

Same here, would like to upgrade my legal copy of TTN6 to 6.032 to be able to have it use the internal GPS and not have to go through NMEA. Also I like the icon a lot better!

Well the link to a "copied" 6.032 has been posted - I was responding to the argument that 6.032 can be downloaded directly from TomTom. I posted earlier in another thread on where/how to d/l 6.030 direct from TomTom. I would like to find a similar link for an "official" 6.032.
IMO, you're legal to run any TomTom 6.0xx version if you bought 6.000 - since TomTom really licenses the *maps* to your deviceID and neither changes amongst 6.010, 6.020, 6.030, 6.032....of course I'm not a lawyer

TomTom 6. Need assistance!

Ok I d/l the tt6 taster version I assume? It comes with with the software and one map to d/l. My question is.....where the heck do I get new maps from? I went to the site and clicked on maps and it says their system is down! It's been down for like 2 weeks now!
I open the prog on my Kaiser and it doesn't give me the option to purchase maps on there. Well at least to my knowledge it doesn't. Where do I go from here? Suggestions? I've searched and searched and all I can find is the "tasters" version. I tried d/l some other cab file for my device but it tells me I need to update my ROM for it to work.
I just want to get some maps dang it!
please!!!!! haha

Thank you! But those come on DVD disc. There is no section where I can purchase online and download map instantly?

I think you may have to install TomTom Home, which is installed on your PC. From there you can purchase maps and install it on your device. I think you can get TomTom home from TomTom's website.

I downloaded TomTom taster for Trinity (p3600) from HTC and installed that. Now to get maps

Try this link for TomTom Home (It's found under the Plus Services tab on their website). Don't forget to download the version for Rider and Navigator 6.
When it's installed, run it when connected to your phone and it will find the GPS receiver. This will pair your phone with your TomTom account (I think this pairing is generated using the IMEI) - you can then buy maps through TTHome which will be associated with your phone.

Question for Tom Tom 7 users

I've installed TT7 on my Tilt and the install went fine. I've even downloaded the one free city (Miami) map. However, when I start up the software all I ever get is the waiting for a valid gps signal. I've run the quickgps to get the latest updates. Are there any other settings that I need to look at? I've read something about gpstest and gpsrouter but really don't know much about those. Am I missing something or have I done something wrong?

Update: Well I drove around for about an hour after work and it finally kicked in and started working. But, looks like I have a Map issue. I live about a mile from the ocean and Tom Tom is working cuz i see my position and the ocean is nearby. But, the area where I am is just one big green mass. I didn't see my address/street when I went to set that up either.

1) Running GPStest and minimizing it makes it get a fix sooner.
2) You are not on the map you have. Tomtom doesn't have a very large map area compared to where you want to be, apparently.

Even after downloading the latest maps for your city, some places are still not available. With TT7, I believe you can edit or download map edits and such from other users. I'm not sure whether this is only with POI's or with 'blank areas' as well.
Btw, I don't think that it would show your address when you're are home. Even after you've entered the address, it would probably show that you're somewhere very near.

had the same thing happen to me. I selected to download the free Houston, Tx map, unfortunatly I live outside of downtown, and I am in a green blob as well. If you buy a full map of your state, or find if your in a subcity (smaller city just outside) then you need to try to find the right map.

Anyone know where I can get a cab file of GPSTest?

use a search engine like google!
http://www.google.de/search?hl=de&q=GPSTest&btnG=Google-Suche&meta=
http://classic.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=24687&associateid=9
another test tool: VisualGPSce

its best to run the test when u are outside (duhh lol found out the hard way lol, lacked common sense) i first installed the Wilmington DE map and then from my acutally GPS tomtom i copied the US and Canada Map over to my phone and ran another application to make it compatible to TT7 and now the GPS works better

Thanks for the files. Any suggestions on where to find some good maps? I drove into work this morning and the Tom Tom failed to get a connection. Has anyone else experienced and or solved this lengthy connection time issues?

Maybe I should start a new thread for this but as the title of this thread is non-specific I thought I'd post here rather than creating a new one. I installed TT7 on my kaiser yesterday after running TT6 for several months. I read that TT7 was compatible with both TT6 and TT7 maps, however when I loaded up TT7 and tried to access my existing map of Western Europe it did not appear in the list of available maps. Is there a solution for this problem or does anyone know where I can get a "trial" version of Western Europe map for TT7?

TT6 maps are NOT compatible with TT7. Also, there is no trail for WE - you have to buy it (£49.95) from TomTom and follow the instructions in respect of hacking TTH2.3 with the tweaked jar file, downloading the map you bought to your pc, manually transferring it (and the activation file) to your SD card and voila.
I did this very thing last night and it runs a treat!

tomtom 7 "7.450" 9029

Today I going on holiday by car and I need tomtom on my diamond.
I want to buy the maps for the diamond so I need build 9029 or 9030 of tomtom.
Does anybody knoes how to get it?
THX

Im using build 9028 and it works perfect.
Why do you need a special build anyway?
I can upload the cab file to rapidshare if you want.

Well i am interested if you can upload it to rapidshare.

Me too....

Here we go:
http://rapidshare.de/files/40108511/TT_Nav_7.450.9028_repack3-vga-black.cab.html
Have fun.

Build 9028 is not supported by Tomtom, and so you cannot buy cards. Yes with build 9028 you can download a free map with this version (small area/city) which works.
Better, you can buy cards via the Tomtom website, but Tomtom Home 2.3 is not working correctly (gives errors) and is needed to install the bought cards. The Tomtom servicedesk claims that version 9028 is not is supported Build 9029 is included in the German O2 rom. build 9030 is included at least in the Dutch Vodaphone rom. The widespread tomtom 7.450 is build 9028.
Tomorrow (july 30 2008) Tomtom ends buying cards with 30% discount and it would be nice for many to buy legitimate cards.

hmmm....
I didnt know that. If you get a link for the 9029/9030 build than please post in here. Maybe someone else will need it too.
But I think there was a cab file here in the forum. Did you do a search?

Ah i already have that file...
It`s the uk map i need!!!

Any idea on which maps to use for the uk with this?
Cheers.

The BLACK 9030 version that was bundled with my Vodafone ROM did not seem to support the widely available (read downloadble from all our sources) maps, activation did not seem to work. The BLUE 9028 version did.

please people, i really need tomtom to buy the maps right now

I'm using the 9028 (downloaded tt7.cab ripped from the Diamond) with TomTom home 2.3 and I bought the maps from a link on this site which takes you to the O2 XDA Diamond TomTom map page
http://www.tomtom.com/products/maps/select.php?D=1094&Language=1&P=394#
Cost me £49 but at least I don't have to f*ck around with hacks and cracks and other sh*t that will infect my PC
you pays your money you makes your choice.......

so no errors and you can update the maps with tomtom home 2.3

Worked a treat...I was a bit dumb in expecting the email sent by Tomtom to give me a download link but after you've paid just go into the 'maps' area of Tomtom home application and it'll have the Western Europe maps sat there ready for download
Oh yeah and make sure you choose the internal storage
ooops just remembered the only other thing I did was copy the Navigator, Voices and the ttnavigator file to the Program Files directory on the phone (from internal storage) it didn't give me the option to install elsewhere....(and setup a shortcut in Windows\Start Menu\Programs for the Tomtom.exe)

Did you know the version of TT7 you have here is a cracked version of the installer?

IGNORE POST IF YOU HAVE READ IT. It's been a long day

When it is a cracked version of the installer ( whatecer that means ) - where do we get a legal version of TT7 for an original HTC DIAMOND TOUCH ?
TomTom does not help

Build 9028 does not work with TomTom Home 2.3....
From what I've read here, build 9029/9030 supposedly works with TomTom Home 2.3 although I have not seen a confirmation.
What we need is someone to post the 9029 or 9030 cab

Satnav on HTC Diamond

What is the best satnav software to have on HTC Diamond? I noticed that my Compaq IV has Co Pilot pre-installed (trial version), but I've always been using TomTom on my Vario II. I've noticed a lot of people tend to be installing on TomTom on the Diamond.
I spent about 5 hours yesterday trying to install TomTom v7 with GB maps but was not able to get the maps to show. I also checked several different walkthroughs how to install TomTom 7 to no avail.
So if anybody can help me on how I can get TomTom or if CoPilot is also recommended, how I can get this working fully?

where did you download tomtom7?
download again or try with other maps

I tried several different location each with their own walkthrough and it seems like it always works for others but theres always the few who just can't get the damn thing to work. I'm normally ok with stuff like this, i've got tomtom on my HTC tytn but now I have the Htc Diamond (compact iv) I would of liked to install version 7 of tomtom with working GB maps, with a straightish walkthrough of how to do this. Any help m8 or a pointer in the right direction would be appreciated.

tt6
I use tomtom 6 that was on my last phone (western Europe maps)
Installed np ..It works fine.. and its now much quicker to pick up satelites..

Guys, I need help in getting tomtom 7 on my htc diamond, i've followed the walkthroughs to do with how to get my tomtom id, thats sweet. but it's this bloody meta file, I can't seem to locate it with RunMeforAllAutomatic or RunMeforDCT, which I understand is meant to locate the meta file. I think i'm at the last hurdle to get tomtom 7 to see TTN_7.450.9028 which I hope is the maps for GB.
Any help would be greatly appreciate so I don't have to go into my second night of 3 hrs sleep

Wilsas said:
1) Install TomTom Navigator 7 with the TTN_7.450.9028.cab provided
2) Copy the folders RASTER and VOICES to the root of the storage card
3) Copy the folder of your map (e.g. Western_and_Central_Europe_V720_1803, not included in this package) to the root of the starage card
4) Start TomTom and look up your DEVICE ID from TomTom, which can be found in the file ttnavigator.bif on the starage card under DeviceUniqueID
5) Copy the file *.meta from your map folder and put it in the folder where you saved the downloaded files (I recommend C:\TTN7 for an easy use)
6) Open a command prompt on your pc and navigate to this folder
7) Execute the command
tt7_keygen.exe “path to the *.meta” “XXXXX-XXXXX”
where XXXXX-XXXXX will be your Device ID found before
Example:
tt7_keygen.exe “C:\TTN7” “XXXXX-XXXXX”
If everything succeeds, the patcher should return an "OK" message.
8) Now copy the new file *.meta.dct from this folder to the folder of your map on the storage card
9) Open TTN7
10) Enjoy!!!!

THIS IS NOT A ****ING WAREZ FORUM!!!!

I tried TomTom6, TT7, iGo, iGo8 & Navigon.
TT is stupid.
iGo8 is nice & fast but has absolute wrong speed infos, whyever.
MN6.5 is still the best choice for Europe.

hi there ,
In a most respectfull way I will tell you this .. I have purchased tomtom for mobile and it works great on the diamond ... The problems you describe are due to copy protection .. If you insist on using priated cracked or keygened softwares , that is tottaly your choice and to be honest there are many valid reasons for using it .. however this fourm is particulary strict on not talking about things such as that .. so due to the forum rules you will have to go elsewhere for this kind of help ... I will however say that a quick search in the torrents will definatly help you .. I have had personal experince with the more reputable providers out there and can say it definatly matters where you get your info from .. if you get a build with the instructions Wilsas has already provided and it has the required exe keygen .. and you follow exactly what it says .. you will have no issues
if you do require further help , two options .. buy it , as anyone who gets good value out of anything should ... or if you are just testing it for usablity , you can install one free map upon install on your tomtom .. .. .. if you need the UK maps working .. well im me and we can take it off line

i am using destinator 7 on diamond without any problem!

Consider "Garmin Mobile XT" as an alternative for the Diamond. Alas, due to the lack of an sd slot, you will need a keymaker even if you own it legally, but imho Garmins software makes most of the other options out there look like jokes.

TT7
I just got the Western Europe map installed and it is just excellent.
My XDA Diamond is double worth its value due to TT7 being pre-installed...
No problems whatsoever... just fun...

Finally got tomtom sorted on the htc diamond, but is it just me or does it not look as good as the previous version (which I have on my vario 2) ? On the diamond tomtom looks a bit cramped up with all the info at the bottom when your driving, on the vario it's very clear. Not moaning about it as I do like the fact the new version tell you what road your currently on. Now all I have to do is work out how to transfer my favorites should be fun NT
