is it possible to have TextToSpeech voice feature enable in Garmin Mobile XT? if it is then can someone tell me how and what do i need to download?
thanx
to get the voice files, for turn by turn voice guidence, you must first install GPS 10, and copy the "voice" folder out of it. then unistall GPS 10, and install Garmin mobile XT, then paste the voice folder back in.
Can you be a little more detailed?
1. Uninstall all instances of Garmin from your device
2. Download and Install GPS 10 for PPC from http://www.garmin.com/
3. Install GPS 10 on your Storage Card via ActiveSync
4. Navigate to Storage Card>Garmin
5. Cut the "voice" folder, and paste it somewhere else on the storage card.
6. Uninstall GPS 10 from your device.
7. Reinstall XT via ActiveSync
8. Navigate to the "voice" folder. Cut and Paste it BACK into the Garmin folder on your storage card.

This error comes up whenever I try to load new maps from the Destinator CD. Anybody seen it before?
I have loaded software/maps from this CD loads of times before and I have another copy and get the same results.
I've tried a differant desktop/xda/SD card
I can sync with outlook
I can load any other app
UK ROM 3.17
Any help would be really great.
Dan.
Which version of active sync are you using? I had problems with versions above 3.5 You can simply unzip the maps onto your sd card into the appropriate directory and the software finds them.

Tried 3.5 and 3.7
I friend gave me another copy of the cd and that worked. Really strange as I had 2 other copies of the cd and both were working.
Thanks for your help.
For anybody else using the latest Destinator software, make sure you are using your GPS in Sirf mode, Destinator is VERY flaky in NMEA mode, lost signal, slow updates, freezes etc.
I have difficlut time to install tomtom 5 on wm5. I got windows error at the setup loader starting to install the program to PPC.
(Which is at "select language -> select install application -> show a list that things will to install -> and click next " after click that "next" icon, i got that error windows, the error message is "Tomtom setup application has encontered a problem and needs to close.")
if i can not install the 5.0 on wm5 , how can i upgrade to 5.10? i have been tried many ways to install it. some one post here said to copy 4 cab files to SD card. install one by one. but i can not find where i can start the tomtom 5 after i finish installation via one by one.
can anyone make full installation guide for how to install tomtom 5 on wm5, how to install the 5.10 upgarde package? how to setup tomtom 5 + BLUEtooth GPS reciver + Wm5 to work?
i think alot of people here still have installation and configuration problem about tomtom 5 via wm5.
hope to see the guide soon, Thanks
Rather easy, really.
1. Download the 5.10 upgrade from TomTom (You don't have to install the original 5.0 from the CD first). The file will be either an exe file or ppcup510.zip.
2. Unpack the zipfile (don't run the exe directly from WinRAR or similar programs, that will make it a lot harder to find the directories you want, unpack it to somewhere first). Run the update on the Windows PC. When the first window appears, go to the directory where the update is run from. You will see some new directories there, and what you want, is nvapp. Within that you'll find a subdirectory called app. Copy the four cab-files from that to your PPC, either via the network or ActiveSync. Never mind the ini files.
3. Go to your TomTom CD and find the directory Voice. You'll need to find the correct voice file. For Norway that's nor.cab, for Denmark it's dan.cab and so on. Copy that to the PPC as well.
4. Finally run all the five cabfiles. It doesn't matter which one you run first.
You're done. Of course there's the GPS as well:
1. Pair the Bluetooth GPS with the PPC.
2. Go into Settings, System, GPS. Set Program and hardware port to none and remove the tick from the box "Manage GPS automatically".
3. Settings, Connections, Bluetooth, COM Ports. Create an incoming port (I use COM8). Some ports will give you an error. Also create an outgoing port. I use COM7, and that is called "HOLUX GR-230 (COM7)" since I use a Holux GR-230 GPS.
4. Open TomTom and go through the regular setup. When you come to GPS setup, choose "Other Bluetooth GPS" and set that to the same port as your outgoing port. On my GPS that means COM7. Within 15 seconds your GPS should send signals. And you're good to go TomTom-ing!

Hi Guys,
I am having problems trying to install Tom Tom 6.0.1 on my Trinity.
I have Tom Tom on a cd but when I tried to copy the folders across to my 2gb storage card on my device, the GB Maps folder which is approx 114mb would stop at about a third of the way accross the progress bar and then start again. Then it would start to copy the other smaller files across.
When I tried to run the Tom Tom program on my device I got the 'No Maps Found' message and can not go any further. So I thought that the maps folder had 'timed out' as it was being transfered accross from the cd to the storage card via Activsync.
So I bought a new card reader to copy the files over to the storage card quicker and safer. But when I try to run Tom Tom I get the same message 'No Maps Found'.
It is almost as if I have to install the GB maps on to the Trinity's memory and not the storage card in order for the program to find them. This I cant do because it would fill up the memory.
So has anybody else come accross this issue and would be able to help me because I am desperate to get SATNAV and Tom Tom working on this device.
Cheers!
Hi mikehockenballs,
Your problems is not a nice one, the fact is that your map version is not supported by your current Tom Tom software, you have to get newer version of these maps, and only then Tom Tom will recognize them.
On each map folder there is a .pna file and this file contains the version number of the maps, i have found that maps with version number smaller than 650 do not work with Tom Tom 6.
Can you check you maps version and then correct me if i am wrong.
Thanks,
Luís
Hi Imbranco,
Thanks for your reply!
I looked at the .pna file but there is no version number in the file name.
Do I need another program to open these files up and view the
This is the file name that I have :-
GB_plus_major_roads_of_WE.pna
I think I will try and download another version of Tom Tom and see if that works.
Cheers!
Hi,
I am sorry i did not make myself so clear, you have to open the .pna file as a text file and read the contents, inside the file is the version number of the file. For compatability i recommend Tom Tom 5.21 but you will be losing on some bug fixes and enhancements.

I have TomTom 6.03 and maps are in Folder \storagecard\myDocuments, where TomTom is looking for it.
maybe this helps
Where can I get the 6.0.3 update? I have 6.0.2.
Pe747,
I have copied the maps to the 'My Documents' folder of the storage card, and it still could not find the maps.
Do I need to copy the files into the 'My Documents' folder as seperate files and not as a GBMaps folder?
I now have the maps in 3 different folders on the stotage card and it still wont find them!!!!
This is really starting to piss me off now!!
The maps are:-
ID=GB_plus_major_roads_of_WE.pna
1696100257
650
build=1046
id=38915
and the version of Tom Tom is 6.0.10
I have uninstalled it twice and installed it again but it wont find the maps.
Could anyone please help?
mikehockenballs,
I made a folder under MyDocuments with the name of the map and put all the relevant maps in there. I have another folder with another map.
In TomTom I go to change maps and TomTom presents me the different names of folders.
I don't know if your maps are compatible with the version of TomTom.
I had a simular problem.. before this problem i activated 'enable Bluetooth Explorer' in the bluetooth settings.. when i unchecked it.. the maps were found again - maybe not the answer but worth a trie

Can someone please help? I have downloaded a .cab file to my pc; however, I cannot copy it to my device through Windows explorer or ActiveSync. The "no" sign shows up when I try to drag and drop. I have tried unchecking the Advanced features on USB to PC. Any suggestions?
Use the microSD card reader

I'm not sure whats causing that if the device is properly connected and synchronised but a surefire way will be to copy the cab to your microSD card using the cards USB reader and then put the card back in the phone and run it from there. Are there any other problems you're getting with regards to activesync and what are the rest of the details of your setup (both phone and desktop)?
Thanks for the reply. The issue is resolved now.
can i install mapking manila at my xda 2? if ever how? thanks...
You go to option's search
I have Mapking 7 running in my Himalaya with no problem. Although the Himalaya does not have GPS I still find the map function helpful.
1. Download the mapking 7 ( or any other version compatible with PPC) installer to your PC or if you have a CD installer then use that.
2. Install it in your Hima by connecting your Hima to your PC and make sure Active Sync is running (If using Vista then open Windows Mobile Device Center). Double click on the installer in your PC and it will install automatically. You can choose to install it in the SD card to save space.
3. Download Manila map for mapking 7 and copy it to My Documents in your SD card too to save space.
4. open mapking program and Press "Tools > Switch Map" and select Manila.
Hope this helps.
