I got the latest garmin XT from the garmin site for my Tilt, and ran the installer on my pc. usually, when i put the memory card into the device, it automatically pops up with a window and asks me if i want to install it and where.
not this time though. and now i cant figure out how to actually install it. every file that i pick from the garmin files on the memory card doesnt actually install it properly. it doesnt show up in the programs screen, nore does it even come up in the manage programs screen. it works, but i have to use file explorer to actually launch the exe. its not really installed!
im using the L26 V8 lite rom.
please help!
I had the same problem on my tilt, I am using death v4 for my rom. I thought that I accidently downloaded the nokia verson or something cause nothing looked normal after it "installed". I don't know what to do either
working on dutty
Just info really...i'm on dutty's June release and Garmin installs and functions fine. You might want to consider this plus the latest SPL with being ROM being very smooth.
i have the latest hardspl. dutty's latest releases are too buggy.
just tried it with L26 V7, same.
No one knows how to properly manually install??
Did it create a folder on your storage card called 2257? If so, is there an autorun file in there?
Yeah the 2257 folder is there, tried to run the autorun file, still didnt actually install it

Take your storage card out, then put it back in. Does autorun start?

Hello all. Just got my phone on Orange and I like it. I have been a Mac-user for the past 12 years so I am used to not tweaking my gadgets. Can someone explain how I install the CABs onto my Kaiser via either my G5 iMac or my intel Macbook. Many thanks
do'h not very sure, but you might want to try the missing sync, grab the latest version, it now supports win5 and 6. basically that's what you need to synch your mac and PDA, but not very sure if you can install 'em through it though
Now how do I find the installed CAB
OK I have downloaded a CAB onto the Kaiser via Missing Sync. (HTC album mui 0419.cab) So how do I now find it on the phone and activate it or any other CAB?
Thanks again
not that hard
I get that you're new, I am too, but try to figure this stuff out by yourself.
Bluetooth should work for getting files onto the phone (my docs/bluetooth)
When you sync to the phone, the PC version is that you see the phone on the schema/folder tree and can choose where to put it.
When you find the cab file, opening it will install it. Generally try to put system specific things on main memory and things like games on a storage card.
Look at some must have threads to find programs that you like and after you figure it out try a hard reset and reinstall things. That will let you keep a stable device.
As for ROMS, I would be careful of even thinking about flashing on a mac unless you find a thread telling you how to do it, you don't want a bricked device.
Remember to search the forums - it's worth your time.
Just mount the kaiser with missing sync. After that, drag and drop the file to a location that you can remember. Once you do that, just go to the file explorer in the kaiser, locate the file, and click. You should be all set.
what about a non-cab files? with an .exe extension, will it be installable trough missing sync?
from what I can remember, Missing Sync is really broken at the moment. (under 10.5).
To install a cab, you just use the tab next to syncronize, what is it, the file tab or somehing?
if it's a .cab, it will be loaded automatically. But make sure there's no spaces/irregular characters on the .cab, otherwise, it won't load the installation, and possibly, the file will not be uploaded at all. I think this is a missing sync bug.
Nope, you're going to have to pull the .CAB out of the .EXE file

Its a known issue and it doesn't matter what radio you are using. There is a fix, but it takes longer and is more of a hassle. First I don't know if you have signed up at MyTomTom.com yet or not, but you have to because the version that does work is not English speaking voices, so you will have to download an English voice. Go to the link in my signature under Programs, its called "Working TomTom", download it and install it to the device. If you need help getting the voices set up just let me know and I will walk you through it.
TYKDKobes finally got that installed. hopefully its better then the other navigation softwares I've tried so far.
Thanks will try this, finally got Nav 5 installed, but would like version 6 for newer maps. Sorry to be a bit thick, but do you mean to install the file I downloaded onto my device and the try to install Nav 6?

That CAB is TomTom Navigator 6. So just install it from your device.
Got it working, downloaded voices, Thanks heaps for you help!
In my signature is a link for all the free TomTom voices instead of trying to find them all. Just download the Zip file and extract it to your computer. You will need to REPLACE your current "voices" folder with this one. For instance my TomTom is installed on my Device, under Programs, Navigation, and in that folder you will see another folder called "voices" that is where TomTom stores its voices. All you are doing is taking the one you downloaded and replacing it with the old one. **this will replace any current downloaded voices**
"the zip file is located under cabs"
will install and test the application.
thanks

Hi, can you help me, I'm trying to install Tomtom 6 to my HTC cruise. I keep getting the message to update my ROM, I tried to follow the advice in this thread, but have failed. Can you walk me through it? Cheers
what is the speed of tomtom like on your device mate? mine is painful, screen refreshes every 1.5 seconds, whereas i get 15fps on another sat nav program (which actually holds reception better than tomtom too!)
TomTom support were helpful, told me to hard reset and try again. I think its a software issue with 6.032.
The other sat nav programs arem much more graphic intensive too, so i doubt its the graphics drivers.

Which version of TomTom did you download and install. Usually that error appears when you download the TomTomWWE(World Wide English). The one you need to download and install if you get that error is the Working TomTom CAB which can be found in my signature under CABS, Programs. Should work then.
how do I install the program from you're cab to my HTC cruise? I'm a bit of a novice at this, sorry.
Download the cab file to your computer, and copy it to your Device or Storage Card. Remember where you place the cab file because you will need to open it from you Phone using File Explorer. Now navigate to the file and click on it. It will automatically start to install, usually it will ask you to install to the Device or Storage Card, but this CAB will just install to the Device.
when I do this I get a message 'there is no application associated with..' run the application first, I can't get the tomtom application off my CD? sorry for being such a pain. Thanks for you're help.

Check your GPS speed in TomTom.
Go > Change Preferences > Show GPS Status > Configure > Oter NMEA GPS receiver > GPS baud rate > COM4
The GPS baud rate should be between 4800 and 9600, if its too fast mine exhibits the jerkiness as described in your post.

Kinda confused now. What do you mean you cant get the application off your cd? If you have downloaded the cab then you dont need the CD. After moving the cab to your phone go open it, by using your phones file explorer program(single click or double click) should automatically install itself. have you made it to that point?
This is also a great resource to TomTom 6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330235
I downloaded the cab files from you're signature and then had a list of files which weren't associated with any program (they had the generic icon next to them) I then put all these files on my micro SD and put in my phone. I then went to these files on my phone using file explorer and there was still a list of generic icons. Maybe I did something wrong in the download. I downloaded with winRAR and extracted all the files to a folder on my desktop. I really appreciate you helping me, thank you.

No these files dont get extracted before moving to your phone. When downloaded the file should be a blue file folder icon called a .CAB. Once downloaded take that exact file and move it to your phone. Here is the link to the cab http://www.4shared.com/file/47123724/832a2d34/Working_TomTom.html

Hey it worked, you're a dead set legend, thanks a lot mate
Trying to install Tomtom.. After transferring all the files and trying to click "Start" it won't do anything.. all the files are on the SD card.. Anyone help?
ok, so you are saying it installed correctly right? there were no errors after installation? did you try installing to your DEVICE not SD and seeing if it works?
it didnt install at all.. the whole folder is in the Storage card.. and it says to run the "Start" app to install.. clicked it.. and won't do anything..
Go to the root of the card, double click on start.exe, if it runs, create a short. Or find tomtom cab file and install it.
are you sure you have a working TomTom file. There are 2 in my signature try TomTom WWE first.

if the folder is empty then yea. i know when i downloaded my map it saved the cab file, try to save that in a spot where you won't delete it (its easier to just reinstall from the cab then find the site to redownload)
The internal GPS in the phone is COM:4 And if you don't have GPStest yet i would recommend getting it, by changing your baud rate you may get a quicker fix, and sometimes TomTom has trouble with getting a GPS signal and running GPStest first will jumpstart your GPS and TomTom will get a fix instantly.
Hi,
Im quite new on this HTC phones.
I have a problem, I dont know how to install software on the diamond.
It opens the files in Opera but it will not start the installation.
Do I have to have any program to install programs on the phone?
I have been trying to install tomtom 7 but it will not work.
Best regards,
Martin
Look on the internet for a cab file of TT7 copy and paste this in your internall storage in the map programmables. Disconnect phone from usb go to the place where you put it and run it from there.
This should work probably.
Grtzzz
I have the same problem too, but only happened while installing .cab file.
Anyone can help? Thanks a lot.
It dosent work.
I found the file here on the forum, I did active sync with my computer, I took the file, moved it the the 4g internal storage of the phone.
I tryed to start it but nothing happens.
Thats the problem i have, it seems that my phone dont want to start the cab files.
Should I just click the file or should I do something else?
Normaly just clicking is enough.
Sorry but are you shure its a cab file its not rarred or zipped.
Have you allready installed other programs this way?
For cab files i do not use activesync to put them on the device i simply do it in storage mode.
Grtzzzz
I found the way, I had to make a soft reset. Then it worked!
I have a stock ATT Tilt, with the stock ROM (6.0)
I am trying to install SPB Mobile Shell. I have never used the software before and downloaded the trial. Each time I try to install the CAB from my device, it is unsuccessful.
Any suggestions? (And yes, I have redownloaded the software and tried to install it a number of times)
Thanks

Never had this problem, are you using the right version?
I have downloaded it three times from spb's own site, both to my computer and directly to my device. (I don't have a windows machine, so I am downloading the CAB files). I even downloaded the EXE file and extracted the CAB from it.
Each time as I click on the CAB file (on my device), it says Installation was unsuccessful.
Any thoughts?
Mobile Shell
Have you made sure to check it's box in the "today" settings page to activate it on "today". Also remember to uncheck everything else on that page.
It's not installed...so there is nothing to check. Just trying to figure out how to install...

Go to Settings/Today/ Items and uncheck all items on your today screen. Load the SPB onto your SD Card, however when you click it and it then prompts you to the location installation, leave it on Device.

here you will be OK with this trial version...
http://rapidshare.com/files/177073963/SpbMobileShell2.arm.cab
Thank you so much. It finally installed....but
However, it is only v. 2.0.0. Anyone know where to get the latest version THAT WILL INSTALL?
You can download direct from SPB themselves, or a software provider like Handango lets you download the trial version.
I have seen the same issue with installations of this too. I found that the installation .cab file was too small and so (althought it 'appeared' to install) it failed. I got round the problem by downloading directly from the PC and then moving the cab to the SD card before installing from there.
This would not account for your failed PC installation but may be worth a go if you still find it an issue.
Regards
Tony
Hi,
I had the same problem last night, the CAB would not install from the SD card or Main Memory.
In the end i downloaded the EXE from SPB and installed via Windows Mobile Device Center (old ActiveSync ) and it was fine.
