I got my Tom Tom software and BT GPS reciever yesterday.
I installed it and it just ground my XDA2 to a halt. I uninstalled and the XDA2 was back to normal.
My XDA2i arrived today (at last) so I installed the Tom Tom on that (I'm selling the XDA2 if anyones interested).
Problem is I can't now register the Tom Tom to work with my XDA2i. Tom Tom say that the licence is for only one device at a time. This is what I want but they can't release the activation.
I can't believe that they expect customers to buy a new version of Tom Tom when they upgrade devices.
How can I get around this?
I have other software (like Dreamweaver for example) that allows me to to 'park' the activation so I can install on another computer.
Any help will be appreciated.
Hi,
I currently have TomTom Navigator v3 (with the 3.07) running on an IPAQ 3800 with a TomTom Wired GPS.
I have installed it on my Orange M2000 because I think i'm going to switch over to a Bluetooth GPS and do everything on the 1 device.
It's installed fine, the Wizard seems to work but the main program wont load - nothing happens.
If I remove the memory card, it comes up and says no maps found, so something's happening - but with the card in, nothing happens.
I've tried using a new card and the working one from my Ipaq and neither work (also, trying the new card in the Ipaq works too).
I've tried running it installed straight from the CD, and with the 3.07 update installed and I get the same thing.
Any ideas?
Anyone else had a similar issue?
Anyone else running TomTom on a Blue Angel? - does it work ok?
Thanks!
Ian
Hi Ian,
I have TomTom3 working fine on my SPV M2000.
The only problem you might have is with activating the software on more than one device - TomTom only allow 2 device activations per product number.

Hi,
Does anyone know of any GPS software which works on the XDA exec (windows mobile 5) and BT338 GPS without problems. Tomtom and navigon don't work without a lot of messing round. Just after a solution which can offer navigation perhaps with voice.
Regards
GPS Software for EXEC
Hi - I use an SPV M5000 (Orange) and an MDA 3 - Destinator PN works a treat on both - there is a reg edit for the EXEC to enable WM5 GPS. Hope this helps
yes, i have managed to install Destinator 3 and Destinator PN on both JASJAR and JAMin (WM5) without any problems....
(Apologies for the awful wordplay).
I have recently bought a TomTom Navigator 3 package from t'internet, but am having major problems trying to install it.
Setup:
ActiveSync 4.0
WinMob 5.0
TomTom ver: 3.07
It keeps on coming up with the applicvation error ('needs to shut down')
The only thing I can think of is that it is a big old file, but then, I only have Skype installed on my Jasjar, aside from the as-standard progs, so could anyone guide me to a more righteous path?!
Hi,
Tomtom 3 will not instal on to WM2005. It will, however, work on WM2003. Although there are some convoluted work arounds to get TT5 onto WM5 you are best to get 5.21, the latest incarnation that will install without a fuss.
Speaking recently to TomTom I was told that TomTom 6 will be out this summer. Exactly when is unknown but it already ships with TomTom Go packages.

I followed the link from the HTC website for the discounteded version of the full tom tom 6 WE maps and software etc but when I got the software it appears only to be tom tom home and the maps voivces etc no actual application. The app doesn't appear on the available items to install but everything else is? I've hunted through the disk and tried to find the app but can't.
However TomTom now say the software is on the disk but the Orbit is not compatible, any ideas ? How has everyone else managed to install it?
It's really starting to annoy now I was quite happy to pay for this in preference to the copiolt I could have gotten for free...
I own a MDA Compact III including the TomTom DVD with the map of Western Europe. The application TT 6 itself is indeed not on the DVD. My package also contained a micro SD card, on which the application was installed.

Jamie, The HTC 3300 Taster comes with TT6 preloaded I think, which only gives you 1 city map of your choice, maybe the link you are talking about only adds the Full Maps? I think you need to ring TT Customer Services for them to clarify?
I will PM you
Cheers
Nick

Find that very hard to believe, to be honest. My P3300 works a treat and I'm quite sure the Orbit will too, but I'll know more after Christmas when I get back to work and start playing with the one in my desk drawer...
Don't believe everything the experts tell you... ;-)

Install Tom Tom 5
Hi i have just purschased a MDA Compact 3 and wondered if anybody could tell me how to install it through Active Sync. At the moment it just keeps aborting at set up with a Microsoft Problem (Debug / Don't Send). If not could some one please point in the direction of a decent thread to use.
Many thanks in advance
Cheers

Install the files to the card using a card reader rather than Active Sync its more reliable and considerably faster - Mike

go to settings/connections then "USb to PC" . Untick the option (advanced functions..)
I've unticked the box but it still keeps coming up with the same error message. I've tried installing it straight to the micro sd card, but it's not recognising the voices or the map of Great Britain. Help Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers

Tomtom 6 MOBILE is only for Nokia/Symbian Phones.
The Version that you should install is Tomtom NAVIGATOR 6!
TomTom Mobile 6?
With version 6 of TomTom, the distinction between the Mobile and Navigator product line is gone. From version 6, the generic name for TomTom on any device apart from the One or Go is Navigator. Hope to have clarified this.

TomTom works fine
Hi all, i can confirm TomTom 6 is working flawless on Xda-Orbit. Straight forward installation (copy everything to card and restart the device) only had to select the COM Port from Settings>GPS.
Cheers,
