Tomtom 6 on TyTN II

Sorry guys, maybe this is not the right place where to post this, but i'm new and i need your help.
I bought a TyTN II that come with a Trial version of TomTom but i can only download one map. I tryed to put the maps i purchased in the memory card, but i'm not able to make them to work.
Then i disinstalled the trial version and i install TT6 and it work perfectly, but i need to use an external GPS because in the version of my TT6 there isn't the build in GPS.
There is a driver to make it work?
Thx in advance.

Yes there is you go to tomtom configuration and select other NMEA as the GPS device setting.
PS I will merge this with existing tomtom GPS threads in a while!!

You mean i can use the TT6 with the built in GPS like that?
Great!!! and thx!
How about if i want to use the TT6 that come with the TyTN II and the maps i purchased before?
Is that also possible, or that version can work only with the map you download?
I really can't figure out where to put the folders with others maps
Anyway thank you so much i will try what you told me.

YES - you can use it like that - it works very well. (some folks have to as they do not get the free version on disk)
I use my original tomtom but I believe you can use the one from the disk alongside your previously purchased maps - so long as the maps is in the right location -

Can anyone pls help?
Thank you so much.

its all ok, just post your question in the touch pro section.
But I think its not necesary, u already have the answer.
Moved to Raphael, aka Touch Pro, Forum.
HTC Touch Pro do not seem to have HTC Home. In the "Today" settings, there is the HTC Touch Flo enabeled. I tried to runn iGO with it desabeled, but no succes.
So, I think there must be some other way...
Install iGo8, then search for the latest update. Install the latest update, remove the iGo8 Today plugin in Setting > Today > Items, and add a link in the "Programs" tab of TF3D. That should do it (works fine on my Touch Pro)

Got it working now....
Just a quick question, does it work in landscape mode on the touch pro?
Uhm, I don't know why it isn't working for you because on my Touch Pro it works great. Just installed it, copied the appropriate files for my country (the Netherlands) into the appropriate dirs as mentioned in the readme and that's it. Uhm, no, I had to set the GPS on com4 in iGo8 to get the gps working but that was all I had to do.

Just tried it. Works great in landscape too.
Can you confirm that the maps render and scroll smoothly when navigating now unlike the jerky movement you have with the Kaiser?
I can't compare with the Kaiser, I never had one. But map scrolling seems ok to me.
Hmm I got the same problem.. How do you actually update it?
I just bought my htc pro touch so bear with me please.
i installed it. everything seemed fine, i click on it, i get a loading icon, nothing happens.
Keyboard?
Hi,
iGO8 seems to work, but I can't get the hw keyboard to function. Not one key seems to respond. Does everyone else have this problem?
Thanks,

i dont understand why there are reported problems with the gps software on this phone. is there anything outhere that just works , without tweaks or anything of the sort?
is the co pilot 7 better than igo8? in terms of usability by someone who doesnt understand how all this works
I have tested iGO8, TomTom 7, and Garmin XT. All work fine on the Touch Pro (but I did not test hardware keyboard input).
In my case, I found Garmin to have the best GPS performance: only 2-3 seconds lag behind my separate Garmin nuvi 760 unit, and <30 secs for first fix most of the time. iGO and TT are a little slower but still work fine -- but other people find iGO or TT to work very well.
Other thoughts: TT has the most detailed roadmaps, iGO and Garmin are average. But I find Garmin has the best POI support. iGO (and I think TT, also) supports TMC but (so far) it cannot be activated on the Raphael. Garmin does not have TMC but can download traffic from its servers via your data connection (3G, EDGE, etc). For me, Garmin is a solid middle-of-the-road software; the only major drawback is no TTS, which iGO and TT both have.
I haven't tested Co-Pilot 7, but since it's based on iGO core (iirc) I probably won't try it. But of course, you should try demo maps or at least read reviews to find out which software is good for you.

To help clarify, there are two separate issues. The first is that many GPS software comes on SD cards that are intended to be kept on the SD, or on CD to be installed to main device memory, though if you buy it you have every right to install it to your Raphael. Since the Raphael only has microSD, you may have to install the program in a certain way to get it running. You also have to be careful of the software version, since not all are compatible with WM6.1. (These issues come up all the time among people pirating the software.)
The other issue is about the GPS receiver in the Raphael. Lots of people are trying different tweaks to get the best performance (ie: no lag) out of their receiver. But it's unclear if it's a problem with a weak antenna, or if certain programs (iGO, Garmin, TomTom) run better/worse on the Raphael. The results have been somewhat mixed but we're gradually figuring everything out.
Hi, I am trying to install IGO 8 on the HTC touch Pro, Raphael. The installation seems ok but when I launch the program, nothing happens. The rainbow circle shows up but then nothing. I am wondering what I am doing wrong. Could someone please advise?
Thanks in advance.

GPS for HTC Pro
Oziexplorer + your own maps or you can use iGO 2006 or iGO 8 /Nav N Go 8/ it works great with HTC Pro. And there is the map of Egypt too...
Igo is great Israeli software
I'm using NavNGo's iGO 8 - works like a charm.
TomTom Navigator 7 - TomTom told me that they indeed would release version 7 soon. Until now, only select Dimanond users had it preinstalled.
Both programs are working 100% on Touch Pro
The Doc.
hi, please onsi11 could you tell me where did you buy the htc touch pro from cause i can't find it anywhere in Egypt
I can sell you mine. It's less than 2 weeks old but no dings, scratches, dents... you basically wouldn't know it's used unless I told you.
I can put up an auction on ebay for it if you're interested. I'd be looking for $850 plus shipping & handling but I'd figure that out based on whichever way you want it shipped.
I got mine from a store in Ontario here in Canada.
I'm sorry i'm a lil bit out of the subject...
but helraiser,
I am from montreal, quebec, and i was about to buy the Touch Pro also. I'm just wondering if you had any trouble using this phone with Rogers network?
Thanks

Hi Onsi!
In the Storage Card, there's a folder named "iGO8".
In this folder, there's a text file named "sys".
Please copy the content of this file and paste it to a reply here and I'll try and help you fix the problem.
BR,

Can someone move this to Rapahel general forum?
This is only for ROM development...

Looks just as it should!
Make sure that in your Storage Card there's indeed an "iGO8" folder... If you have moved or renamed it - that may be the reason for iGO not running.

iGo Amigo for Kaiser

Does anyone have any experience of getting iGo Amigo working with their Kaiser? TTS?
works fine...
but i had to turn off "assisted gps" function. Not tried TTS.
Thanks rothod.
TTS is what I'm looking for. Can you try it?
Also, have you previously used iGo 8? If so, do you find Amigo better, or worse?
Works very well for most aspects. Updated graphics and new interface. TTS works perfectly. Major 'bug' of backlighting controlled by Windows with no override by program. Can use on 8.3 maps.

The display a bit more cartoonish - more like Garmin's than the clean iGo8.3. TTS a bit more precise in pronounciation, and more courteous - lots more "Please turn" etc. Too chatty for my liking.
Still prefer iGo8.3
Amigo has less options
Hmmm.. thanks lads.
Going to install iGo 8 then. This is what I've been using on my trusty (old) Mio 269+ for months mow, and I love it.
Was going to use Amigo on my HTC TyTN II (when I eventually receive the device!), but I think I'll put iGo 8 on it instead.
Anyone know how to get amigo to run from today screen if i copy exe to phone it will not load. cheers

IGO 8.3.2.64873 With TTS - OK
Hi all
I have the PDACorner X-V1 and I just installed the iGO 8.3.2.64873 with TTS files, and it seems to be working, I heard the TTS voice when I choosed my language, and iGO is now running.
I have both working on my Tilt fine. Amigo is nice, however iGO8 will still be my primary GPS program.
iGo8.3.2.64873 -
IS there a solution on how to make IGO find the satellites faster ?? i read many comments from others in this forum but somehow i could not find any proper answer.
IGO6 plus it is finding the satellites very fast when comparing these two..
comments/advice it will be appreciated.

No, it's not allowed as it falls under warez. Plus, it doesn't even come in cab form.

[Q] app sygic_navigator cant run on HD2 running android

I have HTC HD2 install android CM9, everything OK. but have problem with sygic_navigator_11_2_6 application (file attacked). it was installed in my device, but when i run. it just show program icon and out.
please have you tell me how is that?
thank you!
I had a problem with getting Sygic to run on ICS ROMs...I did a clean install of Nexus HD2 ICS CM9 HWA v2.3 ROM and then I updated to the latest version of Sygic which is the same as yours and problem was sorted. Hope this helps.
Hello Tuaa11,
I'm using this rom: [9.Jun.2012] NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.3 (Kernel: tytung_HWA_r3) and i have Sygic installed and it works flawless.
I use version 11,2,5 build R-32564 and it navigates very well..So it is possible. I guess this is what you mean with Sygic Navigator?
Looking forward to help you.
Greetings,
Arjan
PS. Just for the info, don't forget to download the maps first with Sygic downloader or else i guess it won't start up. (I think you already knew but just for the info)
I run Sygic 11.2.6 on NexusHD2-ICS-CM9_V2.2 (Tytung kernel r3).
It works perfectly.
A bit of a slow starter, but once up and running, Sygic runs perfectly.
No problems at all.
By the way, on NexusHD2-ICS-CM9_V2.2, and NexusHD2-ICS-CM9_V2.1 it ran perfectly too on my HD2. About older versions I don't know as I hadn't sygic installed then.
I've been using Sygic Aura (got legit licence and everything) for about 2 years now on various roms most recently the last four NexusHD2 builds - everything works fine for me.
Don't mind me asking, how is this compared to the cracked google maps?

Agreed. I've got a Tom Tom XL Europe which is no longer used as I use Sygic on my phone instead. It starts up quicker, the lane diagrams and voice instructions are by far superior. I've also compaired this against Navigon and CoPilot. :good:

Yes, i've try Copilot too, and Sygic is better for sure.
Sygic GPS Navigation v11.2.6 work great with GB and ICS roms.
i only keep winmo 6.5 for the gps. i have been waiting for winmo 6 on sd since forever which would make my HD2 even more perfect than it is already
for me anyway
igo 8 winmo > tomtom > igo 8 android > sygic
i did try copilot but for me in the middle east the maps are hopelesly out of date
keep that in mind when recommending an offline gps nav program, the fairly minor differences in interface are not much use when the maps are 2 years old
thanks everybody
its really ok.
Because i downloaded a file install apk have problem, i installed again with google play and its still cant run. the last, problem is not enough memory for program was started, i dont know i have more 30Mb internal storage.
I think sygic realy the best navi program, now
thanks for your help
Hello , I have the Note 2 n7100 international version , and I am looking for a sygic nav app thats works anyone can send me download link please .thank you
Hmm, you seem to be in the wrong place, this is HD2 forum
