I've seen many places that there is Tomtom Navigator 7 other than the Diamond.
Can someone say if that will work for the Tilt WM6.1?
Where and how do you get that?
I've googled a lot, but it seems really hard to follow all that.
Thanks,
Issa

Hi, I have an XDA Mini S and would like to have Tom Tom Navigator on it. Being very new to this and a bit of a technophobe, can anyone tell me how to get it on my phone? Thanks.
TomTom in 3 easy steps
1) Buy it for your device
2) Read the manual that comes with it
3) Install it as per manual.
Ok, thanks. So its made for specific devices? Sorry to ask stupid questions but i am a girl!! lol
It is that easy - Honest!
I had 'trial' version, purely for evaluation purposes you understand (ahhem!) once i got that working i went out and purchased a legitimate version - actually i bought it off e-bay along with a BT-GPS unit.
There are soooooooooooo many contradicting stories about compatibility of TTN5 with XDA mini s - two contradicting stories come from TomToms' own website!!!
try it - it does work

Thanks so much for your help! Where can i get a trial version from? I've just browsed ebay for the actual software and its quite pricey, so it waould be great to check it out first!

I purchased the software and reciever the other day, installed it and it works GREAT! I do agree it is a little pricey though. It is easy to install.
Anyone know where to get a trial version? I'd like to see how much I'd use it before spending an arm and a leg! lol
Glad it works well on there though, I love the phone and am slowly customising it to exactly how i want it.

Tom Tom don't do "trial" versions hence the " (ahhem!) "
.. and for the sake of this forum - please don't ask for a hacked version.
TomTom works just fine on a Wizard, most of the issues you'll read about are from people with hacked copies.
You do , however, have to watch out and ensue that you only install it on 1 pda/phone. The registration code it then "tied" to that pda in particular and if you change/upgrade pda's then it will not re-activate with the same code.. TomTom will have u sending them copies of receipts (for the new phone) etc - just to get a new activation code. It took me about 7 emails and just as many days to get mine re-activated when I switched from a XDAIIs (blue angel) to this Wizard.
There are cheaper sat nav programs out there though..

Whats one of them??? :shock: :? :lol:
You need a BT-GPS - BlueTooth Global Positioning System receiver so that the TomTom software knows where you are.
The receiver uses geo-stationary satellites to calculate your lat and lon co-ordinates. You have to use a bluetooth version with the XDA as there are no external com ports for a wired antenna.

Thanks for that Mark!!! That actually made sense! lol I'll go see what I can find now.
does anyone know what symbiant of tom tom navigator I need for my wizzard? i'm on t-mobile uk. also, any idea where I might be able to "aquire" a copy of it?
thanks in advance!!
yeah you can buy it at a store or at tomtom.com, its very rude to come in here asking for warez and such stuff. do some research. dont be lazy. i currently have tomtom 6 running on my mda and its working very well so i recommend that one. So good luck on your findings my friend. adios
Hello everyone I am a new member with a bit of a problem. I bought my tytn II off of ebay and the seller is no help so I am hoping someone here will be kind enough to lend a hand. when I bring up tom tom on my tytn it ask for an activation code which I dont have a clue about. So I would love to use tom tom but have been out of luck so if anyone could help I would be greatful.
Activation code is something you need to buy from http://www.tomtom.com
If it came with TomTom 7 though, your outta luck for now cause it's not 'officially' available for windows mobile devices yet.
using v6 or 7?
There are versions of TomTom out there which don't need activation - I think v6.032 which came on my CD is the best (I'd upload a copy, but I think the mods won't allow this). However, you still need to buy the maps...
tomtom 6 is my version I am using

Redundant thread.
I am a newbie. Yes I know.....
But I have a new Tytn 2 with WM 6.1. Now this phone didnt come with Tom Tom for some reason and I would like to install it. I need help with this... I have gone through the FAQ and search and blah blah... but nothing seems to be clear enough to help me. I only have a small idea of what I am doing... So a little bit of help would greatly be appreciated guyz. Thanx
I will need to know where to get this program... how to install it.... how to update it and get maps and ect for it.....

Your best thing to do is look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401679
Or go to TOMTOM here
http://www.tomtom.com/
We on XDA are not allowed to talk about maps and any thing else like POI to do with TOMTOM it is classed as Warez and Warez is not allowed so i suggest you go to the above links.
Or give it a good GOOGLE thats what i did and i learnt everything there is to know about TOMTOM AND IGO 8. ON A PPC

Basically it's pretty simple - The tytn 2 usually does not come with tomtom, if you want it you should buy it.
For the versions that come with it, the supplied map is a demo, and you will still have to buy the maps too. That's what's discussed in the thread above.
and its extremely hard to find the official maps for TTN7
Don't see much going on here related to Tomtom.
I have Tomtom 7 running on my Tilt, with maps that are getting dated. I see that TomTom has new maps out.
Anyone purchased them yet? I'd hate to get them and then find they don't work. TomTom never has indicated that they support the Tilt. I'm presuming I could get HTC Tytn II.
Of course a more important question: Anyone find USA/Canada maps? I don't see them available on their web site (which is what I have read over and over in the past, but people end up with them from somewhere...and no, I'm not asking where to get them illegally).
TomTom 7?
I'm a newbie on this site, as I just got my new phone. I have a Tilt 2 and i saw your post about having TomTom 7 on your phone - i have NOT been able to find the app, and I do not want to pay for AT&T's navigator service. Can you tell me where i might locate this software? Thanks!

Please try searching before posting. Read this whole thread....
As for the maps, those can be purchased through TomTom's web site.
Try using google and search TomTom 7 qvga!
Apologies Philux-X, I saw ewingr's headline and thought from his post that this was a scarce topic. Thank you!

They do not list USA/Canada maps for Tytn II (I think that is what I would need to order forthe Tilt); they have always denied that Tomtom will work on Tilt. If I purchase them and then the don't work they will not reimburse.
I sent them a message before posting here asking if I can get maps, and have had no response.
I like their product, but I may abandon them when I finally decide my maps are too far out of synch.
