I'll think you'll find there is something encoded into the o2 standard ROM to prevent this working. I got the same thing when trying to install GPRS monitor (comes free on the o2 apps CD). I was trying to install the older version that I'd had on my HTC Universal (o2 Executive) since WM5 days so it can't be that the ROM is out of date since it worked on a 2+ year old ROM and later a WM6 ROM from the Universal section. Once I tried installing the GPRS monitor that came with the Stellar it was fine (same program wierdly, not sure about the version number).
Not sure if this helps in any way, but o2 may have got something on their ROM that prevents certain programs from loading, since they are pushing Co-Pilot it may be that they don't want you loading up TomTom. If you think this shouldn't be the case, just look at the way most Nokia's don't play well with other manufacturers bluetooth equipment, Nokia went and made the open bluetooth standard kinda proprietary, so why not o2 with their entire OS?!
I got TomTom to work, I think it as 6.030 rather than 6.032...will play around with it...but it does wor.
Anyway I had to do a hard reset and that package now says wrong ROM servsion or some thing.
Also, there are 3 icon on the bottom right hand corner, is this that taskbar?
If so does anyone know how to remove it or maybe add more icons to it?
thanks

Yes it's the task bar. I have no idea how to remove it ( I did this once with my old HTC phone and do you think I can find the instructions on this site as to how to do it?! ). If you search on HTC home or HTC homeplug, it should give you loads of posts about how people have added more to it. Personally I want rid just to get the extra screen space, so if you find out, please share!
For the GPS thing, make sure you are either outside, or near a window, it can take a while for that first fix. Is there a GPS status page on TomTom? If so, are you getting a signal from the GPS, just no satalite lock, or not even getting a signal?
I'v been trying to install iGO 8 or iGO 2006 on my new HTC Touch Pro.
It seems to install just fine from the SD card, but when I try to start-up, nothing happens. The "loading" symbol appears for a few seconds, then ... nothing.
Can anyone pls help?
Thank you so much.
LE: I am using ROM version: 1.90.401.1 WWE

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,
Cheers,

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.

Just install a newer wersion: 8.0.0.44366 or 8.0.0.54000 and it will work just fine.
I sent the request from skyfire website to change device and do an ota reload of the software. When i load it up on the stock rom it is only showing on the left half the screen with the touchflo hompage on the right side.. Is anyone else having this issue, or is there a setting to get this to work on the phone? Thanks for the help!

I'm having the same issue. I don't think this version of Skyfire is compatible with VGA screens.
Glad to know i am not the only one with the issue. I went as far as a hard reset to see if there was an issue on the initial configuration.
I am pretty sure skyfire does not yet support the vga screen.

It's not. They have said that they plan to release a VGA version but I don't think they've announced a timetable yet.
you need to open skyfire with you hardware keyboard open to get it to work. Thats the only way to get skyfire on the touch pro as of now.
please keep the post updated if anyone gets Skyfile to work
I am also having this issue.. I was about to go search the Diamond forums and the Skyfire forums... I could have sworn people said they had Skyfire working on the Touch Pro (Non-FUZE) like Black?
Edit: Nevermind, just have to run Skyfire with the keyboard out.
Good job guys, the workaround is to start it up w/ the keyboard out. Thx
I was able to download and install v7081 just a little bit ago. Seems to work perfectly fine for me up until the point you click out of it and run it in the background and try to go back to it then the screen goes half Skyfire, half Today screen.
No go for me. If I start it with the keyboard extended, still just uses half the screen. Any ideas?
FIXED! I was having password problems. Once I got it fixed, I logged in, and then restarted skyfire, then it worked! Still QVGA resolution, but at least it can play flash, etc.!
Right on!
Any one know if Copilot 7 for the Touch Pro2 runs on the Touch Diamond2 correctly.
I know there is a Diamond2 special edition, I ask this question because the Diamond2 special edition is not supplied with the Copilot Central Software but the Touch Pro2 is
I Have installed my old Co-Pilot 7 from my Orbit 2 and it does seem to work ok. I had a slight problem installing it just having the maps on the SD card but then I used the DVD install to copy the maps to the device and it is working ok (bear in mind not tested it on a major journey as yet)
It displays using the full screen.
Hope that helps
Thanks for the reply I think I will go ahead with Touch Pro 2 software as the screen resolution is about the same. I have finally given up on TomTom 7 it won't let me use the maps I purchased from Tomtom for my Touch Cruise.
I've got CoPilot 7 on my TD2 and its fine - contact CoPilot support to get the 480x800 res update (which they developed for the Touch HD).
Does that res update sort the aspect ratio? My version of CoPilot fills the whole screen, but all the button images the map ar stretched out. The Red dot that shows you where you are on the map is an oval. Does this version fix that?

Yes it does - that was my problem too until this update
I downloaded the latest version and used my current product key. Contact Alk support for the link to the new version.
I did have to delete two files to allow me to enter the product key without errors though. One called CPL7.DAT (in Device/Windows) and then PK.TXT file in \StorageCard\CoPilot\Save

I second that comment about the link in this thread. ALK may go spare
For the record, i had the CoPilot 7 for Touch Diamond, that failed to run properly on the Diamond2. ALK sent me the link to the HD version on their tech support site, with Europe maps, now its running fine on the TD2.

I'd be surprised if it were an issue. It only appeared to be UK maps plus your licence key dictates what you're able to use anyway.
Hi,
Anybody got any pictures of co pilot running please?
Is there a Speed indicator on the screen while navigating?
What is the best version to get normal or the diamond version?
Thanks
Hello,

Don't have any running pictures, but you won't see much different from the screen shots on the ALK website.
Yes there is a speed indicator. You display a whole range of different things (only one at a time however) including speed indicator while navigating. Incidently its seems very accurate (or at least it matched my car's speedo!).
I have the original/full version. With the Diamond version the only difference is that you don't get a CD/Copilot Central - the app to control and configure from your PC.
If you are going to be running on the TD2, then I personally would stick with the full version. The Diamond version was only there as TD1 did not have a MicroSD card. Don't forget to use the ALK support website (look up "How do I Re-create my SD card").

Cheers buddy have placed my order, had to many problems with tomtom.
Thanks again.
hi,
i had copilot7 trial version(7.8.0.319) supplied with my diamond2 French rom,
but traffic info seems not be available(i am in france) is it the same for you?
Is the 7.8.0.319 version the one supplied by ALK support ?
for those with traffic via gprs, is it good, accurate (tomtom like)
it's a pity if it's not activate in the trial because it's number 2 in my decision's criteria to buy or not that one.
Edit: and nothing about the option price for traffic info, on ALk website : is it free when copilot7 is activated or an annual fee?
thanks regards
Anybody notice the Lag at roundabouts. It takes about 2 seconds once I have exited a roundabout for copilot to fix on the road I have taken. The speed indicator is not real time as it was on my td1 using tt7. All of these problems were present on tt7. I didnt think they would be present on copilot thats why I purchased it. There is defiantly a lag or a os problem on the td2 as I was not getting any problems on td1 it was all real time. I am getting really frustrated now, wish I hadn't jumped boat in getting the td2, regret selling the td1.
I guess nobody has lag?
Alk support haven't repiled back.
I also tried the newer version of copilot on the htc website but the lag is still there.
HELP
Copilot from Polaris to TD2
i have Copilot installation disk from my Polaris, i tried to install it in my TD2 however during installation it says" you are not authorized to install this product"
My TD2 has 15 days trial when i bought it a week back.
Any work around how to install copilot from my polaris to work on TD2?
Hi guys, I just got my HTC pure a few days ago, and I'm trying to customize it. However I'm kinda a beginner at this, so I was hoping you guys would be kind enough help me with them. I have a series of question and any help is welcome.
1. How do I rotate the Manila screen? I had the TD2 tools install and it works on some programs. I think lyriquidperfection had already given the answer for this but I cant seem to find it. And if you're kind enough, please tell me how the programs work, coz there's no instruction anywhere.. BTW, the enable manila screen in the TD2 doesn't work and I have Manila 2.1.19183217.0 which the forum said should be able to rotate.
2. I cant get Manila to work with programs like S2P or Mircosoft Word, which is unusual since there programs support landscape view , any help with that?
3. I heard there a way for you to put shortcuts into Home tab, how do you do this? And can you change the background picture of other tabs other than just the home tab and the start menu?
4. At&T sent me a text said that I have to choose a data plan or they will choose one for me, which is a bummer. They changed the regulation in September and I didnt know anything about it. They should've sent mail to all customers about this. They didn't even tell me anything when I upgraded my phone until after the Sim card was activated. Anyway, is there a way to get out of this? if not, I read in the forum there a way for you to use your phone as a modern unnotice by AT&T, is this true?
5. Is there a way for the phone to rotate in more than the 2 default directions? When I check the G-sensor, it detects all directions.
6. The last one is flash ROM, there a ROM in this forum that the guys was able to make the Manila Screen Rotate sideway, and he got the music player rotates too. But I dont really like the look of the whole display. So my question is can I install a ROM and use only parts of it functions while left the others the way it is? And Do you think Flashing ROM is a better solution than using TD2 for G-sensor rotation?
Here a link to the ROM: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=562942 (I cant post a link since I'm a new user)
Thank you in advance for all your helps!
3) Shortcuts in Manila home screen is a feature of Manila 2.5. You would have to flash to a ROM using this version. It is possible to have the same image in all tabs using one of two methods. Either with bg4alltabs or with HDWall. Search the forum to learn more.
I can't help much with your other questions as most are rotate based and i don't bother with that!
Thanks DirkGently1 for responding . I actually solved number 1, 2, and 5 which are all about rotation. I edited the registry of some programs and used G-config for the rest. Somehow it worked like a charm. For some reasons TD2 Tools didn't seem to work on my phone. For #6, it turned out I have to unlock my phone to be able to Flash ROM and I'm just happy with the way my phone is now so maybe in the future. Still #4, does anyone knows how to get out of the data plan?
