Ive searched the forum for a couple of hours and i cant find a solution to my questions so i thought id create a new thread.
i have downloaded TomTom, i have the .cab file and the .exe file but neither seem to work.
when executing the .exe file i get to the window where it says 'modify, repair, delete' and then the programs closes. if i pick modify it asks me to do a soft reset, which i do and then nothing happens again after that.
when trying to install the .cab it says i need to update my rom version.
i have just flashed duttys 6.1 rom so wondering what could be the problem?
i have been trying to install tomtom for some time now and i would appreciate any help.
cheers
Hi
What .exe file r u talking about? You only need to copy the .cab file to your phone first, then run it from your phone. As for maps use tomtom HOME software...go to tomtom web site to get it..& install on your comp then use it to install the maps. There's a freebie small map to try though with tomtom if it's your first time using it.

The posted thread doesn't relate to the original problem. He can't install the tomtom software. Make sure you have version 6.032.8351 tomtom .cab
My tomtom works just fine.
as stated above my question is not answered, and yes i have searched for hours.
i have the 'Installer_Kaiser_ttn_6_032_8351_HTC_WWE_20070716' .exe file that someone posted on another thread somewhere on here but i cant seem to find it anymore...and i also have the 'ttn_6_032_8351_HTCWWE_Kaiser' .cab file...i know these are just two different types of installation, im just explaining that i have both, and im having trouble with both.
i know that you just put the .cab on the phone and it installs but i get the error message saying a rom needs to be updated.
and with the .exe file do i need to download anything extra before executing it from my pc?
thanks

OK let me clarify this. YOu have flashed dutty 6.1 ROM on your phone successfully correct? If so...
the posted .exe you don't need it..to install tomtom software
and the .cab file posted the name of it doesn't look right..
if you have an email address I can try to email the one I use for you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1942755
that link above is pretty interesting...never encountered that. Kill all apps that could be causing conflict. If that still doesn't work, try using another cab. I have WM 6.1 3.02 version and mine works totally fine.

Its a known issue and it doesn't matter what radio you are using. There is a fix, but it takes longer and is more of a hassle. First I don't know if you have signed up at MyTomTom.com yet or not, but you have to because the version that does work is not English speaking voices, so you will have to download an English voice. Go to the link in my signature under Programs, its called "Working TomTom", download it and install it to the device. If you need help getting the voices set up just let me know and I will walk you through it.
TYKDKobes finally got that installed. hopefully its better then the other navigation softwares I've tried so far.
Thanks will try this, finally got Nav 5 installed, but would like version 6 for newer maps. Sorry to be a bit thick, but do you mean to install the file I downloaded onto my device and the try to install Nav 6?

That CAB is TomTom Navigator 6. So just install it from your device.
Got it working, downloaded voices, Thanks heaps for you help!
In my signature is a link for all the free TomTom voices instead of trying to find them all. Just download the Zip file and extract it to your computer. You will need to REPLACE your current "voices" folder with this one. For instance my TomTom is installed on my Device, under Programs, Navigation, and in that folder you will see another folder called "voices" that is where TomTom stores its voices. All you are doing is taking the one you downloaded and replacing it with the old one. **this will replace any current downloaded voices**
"the zip file is located under cabs"
will install and test the application.
thanks

Hi, can you help me, I'm trying to install Tomtom 6 to my HTC cruise. I keep getting the message to update my ROM, I tried to follow the advice in this thread, but have failed. Can you walk me through it? Cheers
what is the speed of tomtom like on your device mate? mine is painful, screen refreshes every 1.5 seconds, whereas i get 15fps on another sat nav program (which actually holds reception better than tomtom too!)
TomTom support were helpful, told me to hard reset and try again. I think its a software issue with 6.032.
The other sat nav programs arem much more graphic intensive too, so i doubt its the graphics drivers.

Which version of TomTom did you download and install. Usually that error appears when you download the TomTomWWE(World Wide English). The one you need to download and install if you get that error is the Working TomTom CAB which can be found in my signature under CABS, Programs. Should work then.
how do I install the program from you're cab to my HTC cruise? I'm a bit of a novice at this, sorry.
Download the cab file to your computer, and copy it to your Device or Storage Card. Remember where you place the cab file because you will need to open it from you Phone using File Explorer. Now navigate to the file and click on it. It will automatically start to install, usually it will ask you to install to the Device or Storage Card, but this CAB will just install to the Device.
when I do this I get a message 'there is no application associated with..' run the application first, I can't get the tomtom application off my CD? sorry for being such a pain. Thanks for you're help.

Check your GPS speed in TomTom.
Go > Change Preferences > Show GPS Status > Configure > Oter NMEA GPS receiver > GPS baud rate > COM4
The GPS baud rate should be between 4800 and 9600, if its too fast mine exhibits the jerkiness as described in your post.

Kinda confused now. What do you mean you cant get the application off your cd? If you have downloaded the cab then you dont need the CD. After moving the cab to your phone go open it, by using your phones file explorer program(single click or double click) should automatically install itself. have you made it to that point?
This is also a great resource to TomTom 6 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330235
I downloaded the cab files from you're signature and then had a list of files which weren't associated with any program (they had the generic icon next to them) I then put all these files on my micro SD and put in my phone. I then went to these files on my phone using file explorer and there was still a list of generic icons. Maybe I did something wrong in the download. I downloaded with winRAR and extracted all the files to a folder on my desktop. I really appreciate you helping me, thank you.

No these files dont get extracted before moving to your phone. When downloaded the file should be a blue file folder icon called a .CAB. Once downloaded take that exact file and move it to your phone. Here is the link to the cab http://www.4shared.com/file/47123724/832a2d34/Working_TomTom.html

Write your ROM,
Apps which you are using... etc,
maybe you just dont have zip manager?
If I remember correctly, the stock WM doesn't support ZIP files. You either have to add a third party app like Pocket Plus, or go with another file explorer like Resco's.

Yes I have the answer to our Zip problems. Got the info from HTC.
Go into the start menu, click programs, click Tools, click Zip.
This opens the zip files on the device or by the drop down box, the storage card.
Tap/hokd on the file you want to open. Tap "open file" and the file wil open.!!.

Hi I am trying to create CABs from OEM Package. The cabs i want to create are below.
This Touch HD is a Orange branded phone and the HTC Streaming Media is removed by Orange. I do not at this point want 2 do a Rom upgrade.
I have tried various Streaming Cabs form this forum. The streaming cabs that do work will only stream over GPRS and not wifi.
I tried duttys streaming cab but get error of file type not supported, which i presume is because the StreamingSrcFilter is not present.
1. PACKAGE_BlackStone_StreamingMedia_HTC_All
2. PACKAGE_BlackStone_StreamingMedia_HTC_All_0409
3. PACKAGE_BlackStone_StreamingSrcFilter
4. PACKAGE_BlackStone_StreamingSrcFilter_0409
I have looked about the forum and cannot seem to find infromation on
OEM Package > Cab there is infromation on Cab > Package.
I will pay to be pointed in the right direction
Kind regrads
There are tools for this, although I've never used them personally. I don't know how well they work, I do it manually with WinCE Cab Manager.
Normally I'm creating cab files manually using WinCE CAB Manager.

I belive its the custom brarnding done by Orange, They installed PVplayer 2 do the streaming this was optmized for the Orange TV (subscription service)
Orange must have configured the connections so that the streams are done over Wifi rather than GPS.
I have added the connection packages that I think will remove this barnding if you could you also make these into cabs for me.
I am sorry to hijack this thread but i have been trying to convert a package to a cab for installation and so far i have been unsuccessful
I use WinCE cab manager to import the files but how exactly do you find the registraty entries relevant for each package?

Hi I have installed them and there were no problems. But they did not solve me issues with the phone using GPRS even though a WiFi connection is available. I used a dummy GPRS connection and streaming over Wifi works.
So some where on the phone Orange must give a preference to use GPRS.
If you could create these cabs that i will attache I will see if this solves the problem.
I did another search on the forum and for bbc iplayer problems and pointed to this thread. the post i did is

You don't need any initflashfiles in order to create cab files. initflashfiles are useful when you create oem packages out of cab files .
But I guess these packages won't solve your problems, normally something like that is done with some registry entries.
Why you don't just use an unbranded rom?

Thanks for the information Johnpatcher. I was extracting the rgu file and somehow it was not showing as extracted in the folder because of my folder view settings! duh

I want to thank you in advance.
I don't pretend to know what all of you know. I have been here in the past, and it was never a problem, I hope my questions now and lack of knowledge about it is not a problem NOW.
The only way I know how to install any apk file I have had in the past is with the apkinstaller application--Is that right?
With that being said, I don 't have the wallpaper. That was my main question.
Might you , or anyone have it? If so, will it be of type *.apk??
Thanks for your attempt to solve my problem. I sincerely appreciate it.

1. click and download the ".apk" file posted above and download it to your computer.
2. (if you dont already have it) download Astro File Manager from the Android market.
3. plug your phone to your computer and select to use as usb drive on your phones screen.
4. drag and drop the .apk file mentioned above into your phone's SD card storage (if you can't find it, open mycomputer, you should see the SD card storage there.. place it in the "downloads" directory to find easily) once copied over, unplug your phone from your computer
5.now open Astro and navigate to the .apk, click it and install.. it will then be in your live wallpapers list
--- this can also be done directly from your phone in case you're not posting from a pc
THANK YOU
1. It says "We Can't Find This Page Anymore"
2. I "used" to use Astro File Manager, at someones suggestion, and then I found when I downloaded a wallpaper I may have sent to myself from my computer, or something similar, more easily found or manipulated if I used the "Files" program on the Galaxy phones
Well, I just realized as I am typing that, that that with me buying the MyTouch 4g on Wed, that HTC doesn't prolly have that file manager, and I will have to go back to the Astro app, correct
It isn't much worse is it, if at all. I just found it easier to select a file, then "move", then "to" to move a file out of the download folder
Can you straighten out my probably very skewed viewpoint on that LOL
And can you possibly find what you had found, but the link is broken?
Thanks for your help so quickly
Eric
