Every time I try and load the map(2007.xx) and try and open Igo it says that my map is out of date. I tried searching for 2008 USA maps with no luck. Anyone in the US running into this problem as well?

Suggest moving this to Kaiser Software. It's not ROM related.

There are beta maps for each state, and you need maps that start w/ verion 7.10.10 I believe. Your maps are probably a slightly older version.
And before soneone yells, please don't ask for or discuss sharing them since that's a warez discusion. Thi version of the maps will work though. I had the same error with maps that were version 7.10.8... or something like that.

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.
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??

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).
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!
I have TomTom7 installed on my Diamond with the sample map working correctly. I have an additional map that I wish to install. I've manually extracted the files and transferred them to my internal storage. TomTom sees the map but refuses to load it stating "not the correct activation code". I have a code but not sure how to supply it.
Do I need to install the maps via PC software or is there another way to provide the activation code that I'm missing?
Much probably your activation key is wrong. TomTom requires a unique activation key for each phone that has been created for that special machine's unique device-ID.
Contact TomTom office, and ask for a new activation code.
In order to install the maps legally, you need to use TomTom Home as far as I know.
The maps were provided with the phone but I now suspect they're not legal as TomTom says they don't support V7 maps for my location!
Is there a process for installing non-standard TomTom maps?
yes. i know of a way, but you cannot discuss how to on this board.

Good try... But no operator or no provider gives TomTom maps... Only map you are gifted is from tomtom, just a local city map. I know it's expensive, but be legal and buy the maps.

This has been winding me up for about a week now
Hey everyone, my phone's ROM expired last week and all my programs were deleted. Since the Diamond i got was second handed with TomTom GPS, i did not have to install it myself.
Now that I have reflashed my ROM, I would like to install it again with the North America maps. Does anyone know where i can download TomTom and maybe give a step by step procedure on how to install it?
Thanks!
Do you still have the maps on your internal storage and what version are they?

no all the maps are gone aswell
You're screwed then. You'll have to buy the maps from TomTom; they'll be able to sort you out with the right program version to go with them.
so i cant get it back?
anyone know where to dl the map?
