Hi,
I installed Tomtom3 but he didn't installed the voices
I uninstalled it and now I'm trying to reinstall it but the only thing he wants to do is reinstall the maps
I un/reinstall active sync, I did a hard reset and the PDA, same thing
any clue where this problem could come from ?
thx

strange story.
For these cases I have saved the appropiate cabs for TomTom: Navigator, GPS, Voice, Wizard.
I can now re-install without my PC.
Saving the cabs is possible when you do the install without the pocketPC connected and the search your machine for any cab files.
Remeber to put a file with the act code for TomTom if you really want to be independent for re-installing
first of all, thanks for the answerwell, can you be a little more explicit
I just tried what you told me and I can't find the installation files (cab) for the application
and actually the cd menu, is telling me to install the application first, but it doesn't give me the choice to do it
I guess there is a file somewhere, telling the navigator.exe is already installed
I don't get it

you should uninstall tomtom completely.
If not possible i suggest a hard-reset.
Then run the ttn3 SETUP.
Its ok to have the device connected, but DO NOT acklowledge the question on installing in the activesync application manager.
Do a global search on your machine for *.cab
The names are indiative

Has anybody succeded in installing Tomtom 5 om BlueAngel with WM5? I was trying the proposed solution from another post where you should put the .cab files on an SD-card and then installing them from there. The result I get is that the the installation of the first cab file was unsuccessfull, nothing else.
I'm wondering if there is any other (working) way of installing the program, and getting it running with the maps.
Any ideas?
I think that TomTom has to provide an update to support WM5.
This should not be a "WM5 on BA" Problem.
I installed it by copying the files to the sdcard and running then from there, once its running, after the initial setup, I choose a map, then it just exits.
XDAiis
WM2005
Solution in the WiKi
Can't find the solution. Where should I look? URL please !
I got this problem aswell,
I put the cabs onto my SD card and ran them, they all install fine, then upon running TTN5.1 it goes through the wizard then after i select the voice it bombs out.
Most annoying
I unhid the ext_rom using:
[HKLM\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\TRUEFFS_DOC1]
Bootphase=dword:2
[HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC1]
MountHidden=dword:0
At first I saw ext_rom folder with a few files on it ... I tried to copy them to my micro sd card but recieved an error message saying they are write protected... I tried copying those files again to my computer but my artemis hanged... now I soft reset... i can still see the ext_folder with the files on it... then i soft reset again after that, no more files in the ext_rom folder... I decided to do a hard reset but after that Tomtom did not install...
I know I did not unlock the ext_rom prior to unhiding it...
I managed to unhide ext_rom folder again and clicked on properties.. it shows Total space=14.91Mb, Used=6.24Mb, Free=8.67Mb... I still dont see the files in it...
I guess its still there and it just doesnt auto install after hard reset... how do I activate it again???
Pleas help!
Prior to the program disapearing did you update the TomTom software to vesion 6,030 - Since doing this my Artemis refuses to auto install from the ROM following a hard reset, to install I either locate the Autorun file on the memory card, or connect up via the TomTom Home application which should find the device and offer the update/ installation - Mike

Yes I did... the original installation was 6.020... so i updated to 6.030... have you tried Unhiding your ext_rom?
What else is in the ext_rom anyway? is there any important file in there?
No I have not messed around with the external ROM (yet) - as you have TT 6,030 is there a file on your memory card to install the application? - if not simply fire up TomTom Home on the PC with the Artemis connected and it will install what you need - Mike

NO I have deleted everything from the mem card...
Yes I did use tt home to reinstall tt navigator back to my Artemis...
So far my artemis works perfect... but still Im not happy with the ext_rom not showing the files...
Does anyone know how to re-enable the ext_rom to install after hard reset???
This is an update on my previous topic:corrupt installations of programs.
(see below)
I also can't use the internet anymore, either way via connection with active sync by usb cable or wireless with WiFi mode. It does however states that a connection has been made, but when starting up Internet Explorer i don't get for example googles homepage.
When insterted in my desktop, active sync also replies it cannot sync properly. And i get a warning on the p3300 screen saying: could not get an ip adress or something like it.
See below the problem of my first topic:
Hi,
Could anybody provide help for me? My P3300 doesn't seem to be able to install any programs / games anymore?!? What to do, has anybody had the same experience?
Once I install a program from my desktop PC to the P3300 or when I copy the CAB-file straight to the P3300, I get the standard installation screen: "choose a location.....Device, Storage Card or Bluetooth...blablabla"
But when I tap either one, let's say Storage Card, the thing is loading and a 2 seconds later I get the same screen, but with the message: "pocketxpdf.sf.net pocketxpdf cannot be installed. To try installing again to a different location, choose a location: Device, Storagecard or Bluetooth."
How is this possible all of a sudden? Never had problems...there is enough storage space, I've never updated the ROM, just a soft-reset doesn't work either. I don't want to do a hard-reset yet until I know a way to export my Contacts so I don't have to bring them in manually again after a possible hard-reset. (since i cannot install the program EasyHelper anymore...)
Anyone have any clue, what could be wrong?

HTC P3300 UK (+ extended battery)

FIXED!!!!
I fixed it!
I have no idea how, but I can install programs again. And I can connect via wLan (WiFi) and use the internet again.
What I did was: I used Sprite Backup Software for PPC on my laptop which I used a couple months ago to make a backup. I restored this backup to the phone. After, everything worked again and I could install PocketXPDF 0.5.0 finally with success.
Only side-affect: I lost recent made contacts and recently made/received SMS text messages. I think Sprite also overwrote these files with the older ones I had still on my laptop.
So,people, you see: It's always usefull to have a backup of your devices!
Hi all
I hope someone can help me with this I'm using an XDa Artemis and I have TT6. I have previusly copied files from the TT6 SD card direct to my storage card on my device and the system picked up the necessary installation files and sorted it from there.
However every now and then when I started TT6 on the device, it would fail to recognise the location of the maps though the software appeared to be working ok. The resolution to this was to re-set the device and wait for it to reload the software. (a bit of a pain but...)
Just lately the device and or TT have failed to start properly no matter what I do. I have tried re-installing the files, I have removed the TT software from the XDa using add remove progs.
I can not now get the Xda to recognise the newly copied files to a newly purchased staorage card irrespective of whether I install to the device direct or to the storage card when installed in the comuter.
My TT home software does not recognise my device and I'm stumped...
Any advice welcome, particularly in relation to getting the TT Home software to recognise my device and allow me to install the software direct from the C rather thn thru the above methods would be great.
Thanks
Pete
check you setting for the GPS Port in the TT& software. the baudrate should be set on standard 4800 and the com port ist Nr. 4 (usually the one at the top. if it still doesn't run, then try hard-reset your pda and also formatting the sd card and start reinstalling the whole TT6 package
Thx for that, yes it's all ok and I had already done all of that except hard reset. (trying to avoid that as I dont want to spend days re-installing all my other apps).
What I've done is purchase a new card, copy the TT^ data across to it and that seems to have worked (fingers crossed). Since doing this my device has only once failed to recognise TT6 so I'm hopeful....
Cheers
Pete
Hi All,
Anyone know how to install Tomtom Navigator on Storage card?
Similar question applies to other CABs I have I would like to know for those which do not offer choice of destination installation, how to install either alter tha cab to give the choice or other solution?
Please can you help?
I asked similar question earlier but only answer I had was to use WINCE CAB Manager which I don't know how to change...
Thanks
Whenever I install Navigator it gives me the choice of storage card or device. Do you not get those choices? And it still installs a lot of files to the device even though I chose storage card, I think it's unavoidable.
Can you send me a link of TomTom Navigation software so I would discover out and tell you ?
The way I did it was to install TomTom onto the devices internal memory as normal then move the program files directory etc over. Point the shortcuts into the correct exe location and it all works perfectly fine. Even after flashing the device several times since I'm as yet to reinstall it as I don't need to!
