AT&T Tilt - TomTom6 cost question

I recently received TomTom6 and have used it a few times to make sure it's what I want. It works great btw.
But my question is how does AT&T calculate the service cost? Is it Media Net? Don't want to think it's free and find a $100.00 bill. Also looking to get unlimited whatever it runs on, as I plan to do alot of traveling.
I already have a map of my hometown, and just us TomTom to navigate through the city, nothing else.
Thanks!!!

There is no additional cost to use TomTom. It will only use your data connection if you have A-GPS or TomTom Plus Services enabled.

TomTom 7 works like absolute garbage for me on every ROM I've tried. I downloaded their free map, but within 5 seconds of starting navigation, the map stops drawing, and TomTom goes into an infinite recalculating cycle.
Of course TomTom 6 wasn't much of an option either since their POI's are all out of whack. Veteran's Stadium in Philadelphia was demolished in 2004, so It makes sense that the latest maps from 2007 would not have this stadium. But Citizen's Bank Park and Lincoln Financial Field, both built in 2004 to replace Veteran's stadium, are not listed either!
I switched to iNav since I can also run it on my laptop.

Good experience here
I recently enjoyed 3 weeks in the Los Angeles area, which is very far from my home, and it's safe to say that I and my family relied heavily on my TYTN-II with tomtom6 and the North American map I bought for it. I don't know how we would have navigated without it.
It works like a charm - only one time during the 3 weeks did I need to reset the TYTN-II to get a GPS fix.
The maps are on sale from www.tomtom.com occasionally. I bought mine for like $80.

Well I didn't go TT7 because I'm new to using GPS entirely. And I only found [wasn't really looking for] the cab to TT6.
It came with a free city map, and to me TT6 is great! [On point, gives lat & longitude points and good mph reading].
I'll look into both TT7 & iNav.
Thanks guys!

I keep hearing this from a lot of people.
What ROM are you currently running? Ever since I left Death v4.1, I've tried HyperDragon IIIi and IIIr, ROMeOS 3.x and 4.x, Garmin.DK 1 and 2, and now IBI private beta. I have have various issues with GPS on all of them. In order to get iNav to refresh the screen at full speed, I have to use GPSGate and redirect my hardware GPS to a faux COM port.

Funny. But since I'm a bit lazy, I've got a full head of hair at the monent...

DOH

Wts fuze / touch pro, ***look***

***PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK IF YOU VIEW***I know most of you on here know all ths stuff already, but this is my post i'm broadcasting on the various forums i am a part of. anyone that is interested, don't hesitate to pM or post, this is no joke or scam or anything, just trying to get this thing gone. don't be afraid to offer, whats the worse that could happen?***
This is one of AT&T's flagship phones. In my opinion, this is the best phone available one the market today, beating the Xperia X1, iPhone, etc.
I've always been a phone freak, and I do EXTENSIVE research before purchasing a new one. I've been dealing with HTC phones for over 3 years now, and I've never had a desire to go with another company. I love windows mobile and all the cool things you can do with it. The list of programs and applications is endless.
The phone has a GPS receiver built right into it, and I loaded TomTom 7 on it, making it a fully functional GPS unit. It also features a 3.2MP camera with a super bright flash, built in FM tuner, business card reader, mp3 player, picture and video viewer, and lots of other great things. Windows Mobile 6.1 works flawlessly on this phone, thanks to the OEM HTC ROM I flashed on this FUZE, essentially making it a HTC Touch Pro.
The new Touch Flo 3D interface is something to behold. This phone is absolutely beautiful, from it's high resolution VGA screen to its "diamond cut body" and perfect form factor.
I bought this phone for over $500, and I have to say, it was worth every penny. I'm selling it cheap, so don't miss out on this sweet oppurtunity. Thanks alot for reading, and happy buying.
Please no low balls, I'd prefer cash but may consider trades. I accept paypal and money orders. Due to my low feedback, I will work with you as far as shipping arrangements go. I will provide contact information upon payment, and provide confirmation numbers and information upon receiving.
Pictures!

Why would you sell if you love it this mutch? Dunno if this forum is designed for selling Phones.

i need cash quick.. got in a pretty bad car accident and I have zero transportation, gotta pay my car insurance. I bought a piece of **** car for $300, and i don't think it would be cool to have a cell phone that is worth more than my car.

whoops.... good catch, thanks man

personally,
I am in London atm,
I got the touch pro,
I like it but it is too slow,
the performance just loses against other phones..well, not the price!
it is a great phone none the less, but would really prefer a blackberry tbh...

Tomtom 7 cab file

I have searched this forum but can't seem to find it. I am aware I have to buy the maps, I just want the CAB file that will work with the Xperia.
TT_Nav_7.910.9185_vga_black.cab - I believe that's the one I am looking for.
Thanks

Illegal request... TomTom 7 is not freeware.

TomTom itself is free - the maps aren't.
It is a valid request, I believe.

Pretty sure I got the cab off xda.
Try googling ttn7.910.9185_vga_black.cab instead.

Tell me in which country do you live ! In my country, the copyrights exist, probably you never bought TomTom or you bought it and never read the end user licence... By the way, if TomTom was free, don't you think you could easily download it from TomTom website ?
Unfortunately for us, TomTom 7 is not sold anywhere except preloaded on some mobiles... Even TomTom technical support people don't understand this actual marketing strategy.

Actually there is a cab file hosted on TomTom.com which you could download (but think it only works on "real" HTC devices).
There is nothing you can really do with the CAB file, other than get the free local map that TomTom offer.
However if you have paid for maps in the past, then why shouldn't you be able to run them on a different mobile?

Since you asked, I am from the US. You can download the program off the TT website, but it has trouble fitting into our screen due to the resolution. TT makes money by selling the maps for about 40 USD each. And yes, I did pay for them. Please do some research before you make more idiotic remarks, please. I'm not here to flame, but am here to help.

I did some research, and I would be pleased if you could give me the link where you can download the TomTom 7 binaries on the TomTom website, as in Europe, TomTom is looking actively for websites that deliver TomTom illegally to make them close.
I'm not here to flame either, sorry if I may have hurt you in any way. The only places I could find TomTom for free download are all piracy sites... Being a TomTom legal user since release 4, I contacted TomTom support to get TomTom 7, and they told me TomTom 7 wasn't available legally up to now.

I believe the latest version of TomTom is 7.915.9196.
No idea if it works on X1 though.

No wonder they are losing market share hand over fist... clueless idiots at the top, period - but of course, once they are gone who will give a flying *&^% about it, all the losers in suits will find ANOTHER company to destroy...

As it should.

Since there is no WVGA version for our X1s... I saw 2 different versions being mentioned here:-
http://rs166.rapidshare.com/files/195437755/ttn7.915.9196.vga_black.cab
and
http://rapidshare.com/files/198200402/TT7_915.9196_VGA__Negro.cab
Which one is the one to use that is known to work with our X1s? It looks like both are the same version, but the filesizes are different too, and one says "black" one says "negro"?

Previous post is that i must buy the maps in tomtom. Where is that place, link?

Seeking worthy successor to Tilt

Contract w/ ATT up in June, any suggestions / rumors for a good replacement? Prefer HTC, maybe others? I want at least the functionality of the Tilt, and then some. Maybe WM7 based? I like newer stuff and don't mind tweaking, actually insist on some tweak-ability http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

I would go with the Pro2. It has the tilting screen that the Touch Pro didn't, and this time in WVGA. It will be released with 6.1, but will be upgradable to 6.5. In theory, it will be upgradable to WinMo 7 too, but only time will tell. The worst that could happen is you could have to flash a custom WM7 ROM. If you buy the Unlocked version from a place like Expansys-USA, I am expecting a price tag of at least $750. Check out this and this.

You know AT&T is going to fsck up the keyboard.

Unless something better comes along -- I plan to get the Pro2 when my Kaiser dies (or when the prices for the Pro2 come down a bit )
I will sure miss all the buttons and the jog wheel though

*This* was my next phone before HTC unveiled the TP II , now we will have to compare.

I know that T-Mobile will supposedly be getting the touch pro 2, but have we heard anything about at&t even getting it?

If my sources are correct, it is extremely likely that AT&T will get this, I believe by December. However, they will probably ruin it as usual with trial applications, junk shortcuts to their services, and they will most likely ruin the keyboard, etc. This is why I'm just gonna save up, pay more to buy it unlocked and bypass AT&T entirely.

According to my sauces, it will be called the Barium ( as in Barium enema ) and yes, it will include the great AT$T keyboard.

HTC has updated its exclusive app Locations which brings Offline navigation of HTC Windows Phone devices. Locations app which was hardly noticed by us so far has now become a must have app for HTC Windows Phone devices. Similar to Nokia Drive app, Locations app allows you to download the whole maps for offline viewing for various countries around the world. Just in time for HTC Titan II launch in USA, HTC has tried to equal the mapping experience on HTC devices on par with the Nokia Maps/Drive on Lumia 900.

Yeah just re-installed and downloading 'United Kingdom' map (about 400mb)

I'm curious to see how it compares to NDrive. I read on wmpu that the maps expires after 1 month but I don't have time to test.
Also, I want to see how good it is compare to NDrive i.e. does it have options to set hwy as preferred or options to avoid tolls, etc.
If anyone can test this out it'll be great.

Awesome! Looking forward to testing this out

Not tested yet, but under the options it does have tick boxes 'Avoid Motorways / Toll Roads / Ferries'

It looks like the navigation part is controlled by Route66, you can see it quickly pop up saying this.
Lets just hope its not just a trial.

Just downloaded it on my Lumia 800 from HTC Zone, and found that, you have to pay for Navigation.
30 days / 1 Year / Unlimited
So, I am not interested
NOTE: I think initial 30 days will be free, coz I can use navigation option, and also voice guidance, So, I will keep it for 30 days..

Under the 'more' options there is a worldwide map that has a 30day trial, but cannot see any other trial or prices against the list of all the other maps.
hopefully majority of it is free and you only need to pay for extras

According to http://www.htc.com/help/uk/howto_iframe.aspx?id=22197&type=1&p_id=389
Maps are free but navigation and voice is paid for

Great. Good job.

So HTC Locations is supposed to be a navigation app or is that secondary? Based on the description it seemed like just a way to see a map of a particular region.
Isn't the navigation free for Nokia Drive users? Shouldn't navigation be free for HTC users of HTC Location? Come on.

first 30 days are free, after that it needs a fee
press on 'get more' in the bottom of the navigation tab to find out what i am talking about

xap file perhaps?

Here's the XAP. I've got it running on my Samsung Focus. Pretty nice app.
HTC Locations 2.1

I am really disappointed in the cost for navigation feature. It is a great upgrade, but HTC still falls behind Nokia with Nokia Drive due to the costs.

i'm not really sure if it is paid or not, because I wonloaded maps of Poland and polish voicestarts using. In section get more still have only worldwide and description " start using before....", so maybe it is something different, because I just starded using polish maps yesterday.
edit: sorry, Today it changed to "Expiry date: .....". So it will be paid

I think so, if that app will not be free and she will cost 29,99 euro (~ 125 Polish Zloty) for full version - this price isn't expensive beacause we take aplications without time limit.

and what if we reinstall the apps after 30 days?

When you bought app one time, you have it all the time (like other apps) and you can reinstall that (IMHO).

This is a good beginning from HTC.
Hope it is free.
