garmin vehicle icon - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

i have garmin mobile xt installed and it's the latest version i believe, but i can install vehicle icon on it, i have downloaded the vehicle icon from garmin website and copy it to garmin/vehicle but can't see it

you can´t see the vehicle icons in mobile xt because this feature isn´t available for windows mobile version. you can see the icons in mobile xt palm version and symbian version.
regards

Yup and that's too bad. I got a very nice icon from Garmin.com that looks exactly like my car

Anyone useing Garmin XT GPS software on there Advantage

I want to move the GPS software to the micro drive and off of my memory card. Has anyone tried this yet?
From what I gather the Garmin s/w is tied to the card so you can't even move it to a larger card. So unless someone has hacked it....
It's hacked but still not working against the internal GPS... at least in mine. Some people using the same hacked release claims having it working in the X7500...
Works perfectly with internal GPS for me.
working very well here

I have it installed on my 6gig card
but I want to move it to my micro drive
This is not supported by retail version, it requires original SD card - but you can try with patched que.exe file. It will work from any SD card - it should work from microdrive also.
I have an X7501 with the Garmin XT SD card and the GPS work fine. How do I get the POI to work? I've used the POI Loader from Garmin to create the POI.GPI file and it's seen as a custom POI set on the "manage my data" in the Tools screen on the Garmin Mobile XT app. BUT I can't see any POI's. Is there a setting that I have to set ? Do I have to get close to the waypoint. I thought that they should show up as blue dots? HELP

Calm down young Jedi. Under setting tap map then map features then POI. There you can set the label that will show on your map.
BT Gps
Garmin XT version 4.10.40w works with most BT GPS Receiver.
it just not working with SDIO GPS receiver.
in the other hand, Tomtom works fine with SDIO GPS receiver or BT GPS.

I've set everythings but it's still doesn't work for me.
edit
Now it's worked for me. Even POI Loader send file.gpi to directory eg. SDCard\POI, I made the same one in folder SDCard\Garmin\POI and copied file.gpi to the folder.
Now I can smile
I have a question,... I bought garmin mobile XT with the garmin mobile 10 gps bloototh reciever,... that i have been using with my nokia...now i've instaled software on my polaris today but it keeps scanning bluetooth in order to find GPS reciever instead of going to internal gps, the garmin mobile xt came on the cd within the box, not sd card.. does anyone know where this can be fixed, any help is welcome
thnx

GPS Software on Diamond

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).

[HELP] Garmin GPS

I need help for installing Garmin GPS.
I have download and install:
- Garmin Mobile XT for WM latest version
- Garmin Mobile XT Free Base Map
- Garmin Mobile XT Support Files
But when I run, the program always scanning bluetooth and scanning attached for a long time and never end..
Can anyone help me please??
are you not able to skip that step? i use garmin all the time, granted its from the same installation i've used for years. i just keep the files on the sd card & move it from phone to phone & execute the autorun & its re-installs the shortcuts etc..
anyhow i think u should be able to skip that step, but i'm curious does google maps or bing gps work?

Naturally Garmin, can only works with Garmin devices such as bluetooth GPS. but It's possible to run garmin with other devices, all you have to do is cr*ck it. Try googling "jet mouse".

U have to register it. Skip the scan, that will get u past that part. If it's unregistered, it will only see a Garmin GPS.
Actually, Garmin Mobile XT was made for devices such as smartphones with a built-in GPS...
into the garmin software go to:
config>>Sistem>>remote gps and there select com4.
@drdrewdown =
1. if i skip that process, will show "Some aspects of garmin mobile XT will not work properly without first getting a valid GPS fix"... Any idea?
2. how to make the google maps or bing GPS work??
@iwakpitik = thanks for your opinion, i try to find it..
Thanks for all
is there any tutorial to crack this gps?
You can't legally use Garmin without paying for it in some fashion - either by purchasing their Bluetooth GPS package, or their SD card package. If you want to use the built-in GPS you need the SD card version. Be forewarned that Garmin does not support using anything other their supplied SD card, which is not very large and is filled with their software/maps. If you want to use your own SD card you'll have to circumvent their protection, which is obviously not something Garmin or this forum like people talking about.
at the scan screen skip it, go to the about screen, find your device/memory card id
http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showpost.php?p=4075165&postcount=318
go there follow instructions, use the keygen to register garmin xt.
u wont see the scanning ever again and the program will work flawlessly.
now if anyone has maps for india, please oh please pm me
Thanks for advanced.. I can run the application but the problem now is the map is not show and the signal is empty.. Any idea?? Thanks before
^^ sori for duplicate
Map for India
http://www.noeman.org/gsm/maps/
And attached is a step by step guide to do everything...
Enjoy...
PS: Most of the times you will not see any signal bars on Garmin XT, but you will still pick up on any satelites.
very clear my friend.... thanks for your tutorial.. I will try this....

Navigation at sea

Hey there,
in case anyone of you guys would like to navigate not only on land but also at sea i can really recommend garmin xt.
what you want to do to get it working is to buy (or find it on the net) the garmin xt navigator version 5.2 at least (5.4 is ok too)
than get yourself a copy of garmin bluechart for example for the atlantic region.
install it and you'll have all the maps of zone 2, which is the atlantic region. there are to more regions.
with the map, mapsource will install at the same time on your computer.
in mapsource (on pc) select the map choosing tool and click on the map, you need.
connect your windows mobile driven device (i tried it with 6.1 pro) to the pc and click on send data to device in mapsource (tool on pc).
mapsource will now send the maps for sea navigation to the mobile device, which is identified as garmin xt navigation device.
remember to shut down the navigation software on phone before sync. maps.
hope i could help some sailors out there.
by the way its my first thread in this forum. hope i did everything allright.
cheers,
ami

GPS Navigation App for Manila, Philippines

I'm wondering what GPS Navigation app is best for Manila, Philippines. I badly need help with directions, and Google Navigation doesn't work here yet.
Any suggestion free/paid (preferably free, but I doubt there's one)?
been searching for something like this as well.... nothing yet. our only hope is to get garmin to release software for the android (since they are releasing the garmin phone soon anyways). i believe only garmin has maps for manila... but even these are probably not official since the garmin website doesnt indicate that they have maps of the phillipines.
Yeah. I have a Garmin device, but I haven't seen a good enough map. I think, there are good maps out there, though.
I hope, we can extract that GPS navigation app from Garminfone
Sygic has maps for Metro Manila only for the Philippines.
Im also searching something like this... software that could support Malaysia map... need a free one... had anyone tried IGO for android?
Kumusta mga kapatid, now I'm not sure if this does include Manila, I was too lazy to read through this thread, all I know is that its supposed to be international navigation, so its worth a try.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630887
The best Garmin maps for the Philippians are free and located here http://roadguide.ph/Download.html#
Will install fine on a Garmin nav only device, winmo, symbian, etc but do nothing for any Android phone that doesn't run a gmapsupp.img, which is every Android except the Garmin ones, at this point.
i've been using the google maps navigation hack for use outside of USA. currently been driving in singapore and I use it quite frequently and it works like a charm. you may want to give that a try.
As long as you can find a suitable map file motonav will use it.
wow
wil try this.. hope this works on my diamond..
Use Garmin Mobile XT
Mga Pre!!!
The best GPS application I am using right now is Garmin Mobile XT.. Its really cool on my HD2 and i found updated maps for Caloocan area, every streets are updated.. Im also enjoying it here at jubail City KSA.. 3 Thumbs up!!
Sygic Mobile Maps
I have been using Sygic Mobile Maps 10 on my N1 for a couple of weeks now. It has a map just for Metro Manila, so just like MapKing the map area turns black as you leave the Metro Manila area.
I find it pretty accurate for Manila navigation.
Hello,
Please do share where you got your 'hacked' google maps navigation' and/or how you installed it. Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.

If I'm not mistaken, that hack won't work if Navigation isn't available for your country yet. I'm on CyanogenMod, and this allows me to run Google Maps navigation, but because there's no data for my area (Metro Manila, Philippines), I still can't use it.

can you give me link for garmin mobile
using papago .
sent from my satellite , s6xmeup
by using the Navdroyd, i get an accurate navigation in manila area and even outside of metro manila
try Navitel v3.5 or v5.0 (for Android), roadguide.ph had given a standard Philippine map on Navitel users, similar map being used by Garmin softwares. Works great on my GT P1000.
will google navigation work in manila? It sounds like the maps will load but will the navigation work?
