hey dudes, ive got a small problem with my universal. i installed Photo contacts pro, its a very cute program i iused to use on my alpine and im now using it on universal. but the thing is i cant DISABLE the default windows notification in order to let the other program handel the case. i wish any body can help me
thanks in advance
i had problems with those bl---- notifications after i installed newsbreak,memaid and pocket mechanic didnt work.then i read somewhere about a program called check notifications.This program is simply stunning.even better is free from scarybear software
guys,
I upgraded to the official ANZ WM6 ROM, and it has changed my TomTom device ID which means I now cannot use the Traffic service (I already changed the device a few months back when I bought my Trinity).
I mailed TT support and they say then need a letter from my phone manufacturer explaining that the internal device ID has changed with the new ROM. TomTom base their device ID on the internal device ID (according to their support folks).
Has anyone else encountered this issue?
Can anyone point me to an article or suggest a way to get some info from Dopod, HTC, or Microsoft about what WM6 does regarding device ID?
Thanks in advance.
Don't feel that bad It happened to me too. I contacted Tomtom guys and they were happy to give me a new code. But guess what, if you happen to do a hard reset and reinstall Tomtom, the code changes again. When I contacted Tomtom about this issue they said the following:

How lovely. I am already pissed about this as I cannot use my device with the current version for the Trinity.
Cheers,
Gilbert
thanks Gilbert- but that's terrible! I've had quite a few problems with TT6 going wrong on my P3600. Even when I downloaded the specific 6.03 revision.
At least you got somewhere with TomTom.
Do you have a support number I could give to them (as reference) by any chance?
cheers
I have Orange SPV M700 branded version of the Trinity which I bought off ebay & unlocked using tools available on this site & loaded the HTC 3600 rom. I loaded my existing TTN6 & had to reactivate but all went well as I was past 6 months since the 1st activation.
Anyway its been less than a month & I've now loaded the Dopod WM6 onto my phone but couldn't activate TTN6 due to new device code. I emailed TomTom on Thursday saying that I updated my Dopod D810 to official Dopod WM6 update. They emailed me new activation code today & all is working fine.
The Dopod ROM has a bug that changes the TTN Device Code; the other ROM's, official or otherwise don't seem to have the bug.
Once the new ROM is installed, the new Device Code ought to remain the same, even after a hard reset, but there will be problems if you later upgrade/downgrade the ROM, because the DC will probably revert back to the original one.
I've gone SPV M700 Orange -> HTC WM5 Official -> Mun-Rus WM6 SE and TE -> Dopod Beta WM6 (changed Device Code) -> Mun-Rus TE (Device Code reverted to original)
TomTom did offer me a new Activation Code, but required a copy of the device proof of purchase, and it took 2 weeks, so I reverted to the Mun-Rus ROM.
Your previous Device/Activation codes will all be visible on ttcode.com as long as you have your map Product Code so changing back to the original Device Code is OK for activating the maps. The problem is that even if you can reactivate the maps, TomTom Home will not let you revert to an older device association on your account, so even if TTN6 works, TT Home will not.
There is currently no fix for this- TomTom Support say they don't allow regression of account associations in TT Home.
For these reasons I've now abandoned TomTom in favour of iGO2006
Great another reason for not going down the Dopod ROM way.
It is not just TT... WM6 upgrade changes the Code of all my applications
Another way to approach it: each hard reset lets you download a new city map ;-)

There are a number of methods for generating device codes- based on IMEI, Owner Name, Device Name and other, deeper methods!
A lot of my programs have a new device code with each ROM, but the developers generally issue a new license without problems.
The trouble with TomTom is that previously, the Device Code has remained the same through all ROM updates, and they have linked their antipiracy policies to that. The recent problem with TT and device code changes has meant they have been caught off guard, and initially refused to do anything about it. I think the attitude is beginning to change, with the release of an 'official ROM' that changes the Device Code, but they still can't (or won't?) handle reverting your TT Home account to an older Device Code.
Don't sweat it!

Hey guy! Don't sweat it! My TomTom works perfectly in WM6. How reassuring does that make you feel? Probalby very little if any! So don't sweat it! Just try updating your TomTom here:

It worked for me, and don't forget to give credit and possibly a donation to Luigi for making this all possible!

Hey Guys! Thanks for this. Athena user strayed here and stumbled upon this. What a relief. I was about to pour out some invectives on TomTom.Wrote to them almost 3 weeks ago and got the same response as others above. Thanks for sharing. By the way who is Luigi
I have 3 subscriptions of TT, but It looks like they don't appreciate their genuine customers

Here is the link to where you can find Luigi's Rom page. Believe it or not his page was banned because he wasn't able to write in English! Now his page is used for "informational" purposes!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1292874
guys thanks, BUT a few points.
1) My TomTom works fine- it is TomTom TRAFFIC which doesn't.
2) I really want an official HTC ROM (and anyway don't fancy resetting it again!).
3) My Italian is not so good, so it would need to be English ;-)
For these reasons I need TomTom to add my new device code to my account.
It's coming up to 10 days since I logged the call- I've had lots of responses, asking for a letter of proof, and saying it has been reset (but it still doesn't work).

Not exactly. No-one was banned. The thread has been closed because this person was just ignoring again and again the rules of this forum.
hello
like everybody , since i have upgrade to WM6 , my device code has changed.
So my traffic option doesn't work anymore
but where is the problem ? i have only changed this device code on the site tomtom.com and now i can use this option in WM6
perhaps i don't understand the thread , but why have you write to tomtom ?
Regards
hi - you can only change the device code ONCE every 6 months.
Then you have to write to support.
I bought my Trinity a few months back, and changed from my M600....
ach so .......
oups ...
so if i want to reverse back to WM5 , i have to wait or write to tomtom
thank you for this information
exactly :-(
I don't understand TomTom's logic.....

Can anyone help me please? I live in the US and bought my Orbit directly from a Hong Kong dealer through Ebay. Now I want to upgrade to WM6 but the website keeps telling me that the S/N is wrong. My S/N is not in white as it says - it is on a white label and the text is in black. The S/N is S/N:HTXXXAAXXXXX with a B after a few spaces where the XX are numbers and the AA are letters. No matter how I try to enter the number (with the S/N, without the S/N, with the :, without the :, with the B, without the B) it tell sme that my number is invalid. Is the problem that my phone came from Hong Kong and the number doesn't match the UK version? Will Tom's B&B version work for me in the US? Please help.
Dont bother - Ive got a better idea for you...
Dude,
dont bother with the "official" WM6... look in here for the PDAVIET 4.0 update. its the same as WM6, but our friend Tom has added some apps, and tidied it up so much that its a wonder O2 havent snapped him up as a designer. the downloads are far more available, and you wont regret upgrading.
Good luck, and Rock on.
I agree with him
Why bother with O2 when there is our Tom.He shud be the design manager of HTC

tough choice when there isn't a windows pc in sight and you only have FF, seamonkey or konquerer coz opera is broken. i'll try with konq but if not looks like i'll be hitting one of the mirrors.
fyi, i'm an it tech with a passion for hating MS. only got the phone coz the budget was tight and vodafone like to sell their treo with wm5 at an extrotionate price.
every one seems to be a techy these days yet i still manage to beat o2 (after a 15 minute fone call to there xda tech guys who's response was the download is not available) that was using firefox
gave IE7 a go thought why not and it accepted my S/N and downloaded
use the 02wm6 rom supplied then
FYI i hate MS to but im lazy and it works lol if not i force it to

well it doesn't work in konq, FF or it's big bro seamonkey. i did manage to fix opera and scored. dunno if i'll install it tho coz the app i need to use to sync the device on linux doesn't really work with wm6 afaik
i done mine in boot loader mode
just plugged in device and openned rom
2mins later job done
no WMDC installed
(ive had it a week my 1st PDA if you a IT dude you should manage more than i can )
your right i can but knowing how to code a program to be compatible with the changes in wm6 is different to knowing how to repair a system (which is what i do). So in the sync program department i have to rely on other people in the linux community and i'm really not sure if i could get a good sync out of it with the pda running wm6
Just FYI I had this problem (but now got BB4) I managed to download the official O2 WM6 use internet explorer, no capital letters and include the letter at the end.
Hope this helps

well i just put in the first 14 characters including the "HT" part. all lowercase and as i said i used opera. i have been told that wm6 works with "synCE" (the linux sync tool i have to use) as long as you don't password protect anything. so i may install it when i get time.

the iPhone is proprietary to Apple and so it can't be put on anything else. What you can do is put other things on your XDA to make it finger friendly in operation.
To remove just the O2 garbage, do a hard reset and then when it says "Customising in 3 secs", or something like that do a soft reset.
These questions and more can be answered if you look in the Himalaya/Andes sub forum if its an XDA II or the Alpine section if its an XDA IIi. To tell the difference, apart from the label on the front of the case, which may have been changed:
Go to Start - Settings - System - Device Info.
Select the "Identity" tab.
PH10B = Himalaya/Andes, can be upgraded to WM5 and WM6
PH10C = Alpine, cannot be upgraded but does include WiFi.
The best advice is to read through these forums, especially the device specific ones and also the "Development and Hacking" one for customisation.
Thanks a bunch! my sister-in-law retired her o2 xda 2 to me and I wanted to give it a nice "face-lift". I'll be trying out the stuff you've suggested, thanks again
hello to everyone here in xda
I just got my sprint tp2 three weeks ago because i needed a winmo cellphone to install chinese dictionary/1,500mah battery/hardware keyboard/ and something different than samsung, (last phone was samsung innov8)
I've modded my phone little by little by lurking, but there's some annoying issues that i've been trying to solve by searching the internet and xda forums but couldn't find it, like:
(using today's screen)
-making the contacts remember the setting "filter by Device Contacts",
it always display "all contacts" <--- Big headache...
-that same contact's menu uses big fonts, i've changed the fonts to small text, but still couldn't make it smaller (attached file)
-adding and removing things on windows today screen(attached file)
-any good converter to change money, mass, temperature....
I've changed rom, but the same problem were still on the original sprint 6.5 rom, software information are:
OS version: 5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)
Manilla: 2.5.2010121225.0
ROM : Mr.X ROM 2.5
Rom date 04/10/10
Radio version 2.32.00WF
thanks !

I can't really help with the other issues, but I can easily recommend uConvert as the best measurement converter available for the TP2. There's a basic version available for free (cab is attached below), but for $.99 you can purchase the full version which just unlocks some more types of measurements and units.
More details: http://uconvert.us/
thanks.. ! i wonder if... nobody have this problem on their sprint tp2 or they just use sim contacts???
