Welcome to XDA-Dev
For your information - the TyTn is the Hermes You have posted in the Hermes forum. BUT you have a TyTn II which as you know is a Tilt otherwise known as an HTC Kaiser.
Moving thread to the Kaiser General Forum.
Cheers

Please don't ask this question here. This is a different question than the OP asked. That being said, GPS programs such as iGo and TomTom do not use your data connection. Google Maps does, however.

The easiest way I know to do this is to copy your maps to you computer, download and install TomTom Home (free) and import your maps into it. From there you can check your map versions, and even upgrade to newer versions if necessary.
or you could just press the gps bars then press the version number on the screen of your tomtom, above the done button and it will tell you what version your map is
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.

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

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
I am sorry if this has been answered before, but I have tried to search for an answer to this but not found any.
I've attempted to install TOMTOM 5 on my Diamond with no success and any help would be much appreciated.
I have the disc and the path is D:\disc1\tomtom-navigator-5-Benelux\setup. When I run the install, the dreaded message 'TomTom Setup Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience' is displayed.
I copied the whole disc1 folder to the internal storage on my diamond but all the files were read only. Where am I going wrong??!!??
If you want to install tomtom at your phone then you need a .cab file just do a search at this forum and you will find one the only thing is that its a tomtom 7. and I don't believe it will run the maps of tomtom 5 but whit a good search in Google or somewhere else you maid find aswell the right maps.

Thanks, but what ,cab file? What is a .cab file?
A .cab file is used to install applications on Windows Mobile devices. Only TomTom 7 or later will work with the Diamond as no earlier versions worked with the inbuilt GPS receiver.

Before I used TT7.9 I had TT6.30 running on my MDA IV, getting a fix was horrible thought, but after that TT6.30 worked just fine...

Is that the reason I can't get the maps to work on the Diamond I picked up on Friday
Strange as the TT version I have, 5.1, worked great on the internal one on the SPVm700 I just moved away from.
My issue is how to get TT to read the maps. Once I've installed the cab files on the device I can't get them to read the maps on the internal storage. If I try and install the cab files on the internal I can't get TT to fire.
Really don't know where to go next - and dn't want to go back to teh m700 when traveling.
Ta muchly
i think its the location on where you're maps should be placed. On my diamond, the map files are located on the ROOT of the internal storage. Thats the only way it seems for it to be found. So it should be place in : Mobile Device\Internal Storage.

i think you should actualy [SIZE=+1]PLEASE READ[/SIZE] and more importantly [SIZE=+3]SEARCH[/SIZE]
The cab found in that link replaces the default aGPS server settings to the ones found on nokia devices which are more maintained and provide an extremely fast lock!
try to use the option "Other NMEA Reciever"!

i use tt 7.450.9028 and have tried t-back's gps settings, jcepsi's cab for registry tweaks on gps (XDA JCEpsi2005 GPS Lag Fix Raphael.cab), CleanGPSData, and FF's agps settings. I went from a cold lock in 10 minutes, to 3 minutes, to now within 30 seconds using FF's cab. It definitely helped me out. (Thanks A LOT!) i also use htc gps tool and chartcross gpstest to initiate the gps first.
I have installed iGO Primo 2.0 on my X1 and turned on power management in sys.txt with powermgm_state=1. Display dimming works OK but after some time display is turned off and GPS with it also. How can I make GPS to stay on with screen off or disable screen turning off ?
On Tom Tom is automatically stuck the off screen.
Are u sure maybe there is an option for the screen ?
--------------------------------------------------------
What about iGo ? Do u like it ?
Is it good navigator ?
For me iGO is the best GPS navigation software, especially when iGO Primo 2.0 came out. There is lots of options to configure in sys.txt [power] section, but I didn't found the right combination yet. And there is very little information about these options.
