No Maps Available in TomTom on WM6

Hi all,
I have an XDA Orbit on O2 which I got last week.
I have TomTom installed on the phone with the maps and voices etc on the MiniSD Card.
I went to use TomTom today, and it showed be the EULA and said No Maps available. I checked the SD Card, and I could access it and launch other applications which are installed on the SD Card.
I soft-reset the device, but still no fix.
Re-installed TomTom, and when it launched after installation it ran fine, however when I shut it down and opened it again i failed and showed No Maps once again.
I read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285511&page=1&highlight=Storage+Card thread, and installed the HTC Patch incase this was affecting me, however there is no change.
It seems that I can run TomTom if I re-install everytime I want to use it, however that obviously is no use at all.
Any help would be grately appreachiated, as I'm a little annoyed by this being that I have only had the phone for a week.

have you tried putting the maps on the device storage rather than your SD Card? some applications dont like being split over device and SD.
I have TTN6, and have the maps on the device under 'Program Files/Navigator/Zip/'
Hope this helps.

I had TomTom installed in this way on my XDA Mini S for 18 months with no problems, and as far as I am aware this is the way TomTom is designed to be installed.

Is the name of the TT-map map correct on minisd?
Check spelling.

..same issue
I had the same challenge.
There are one or 2 ways to resolve the issue.
1. Delete the maps, un-install TomTom software, you also need a reedit software to delete all references to TomTom in the regostry. Delete all other TomTom relevant files on the device /Program Files/navigator; /My Document/TomTom. Then soft-reset before installing all over again.
This I did for a friend.
2. In my own case, I reflashed with a new ROM, then installed all over again.
However, my friend had a cracked version, and I told him to go pay for the original, as you only need to pay for the maps these days. I cannot guarrantee 1. will always work.

I am currently using a cracked version also (tut-tut) but am getting the Western Europe edition for christmas from my other half.
The maps folder is named Great_Britain which worked on my Mini S on WM5 no problems.
Can you please advise where the TTN registry keys are, as I looked in HKCU and HKLM but couldn't find anything relating to TomTom. I did not remove all the existing stuff before re-installing so I may try this.

Just to clarify the technical points:
I am running the O2 WM6 ROM that was pre-installed on the device, and am using a SanDisk 2GB MiniSD card.

I don't see your TT version
What is your tt ver?

Can anyone tell me how I can find out my TTN software version being that I cannot get into the application itself, as I am stuck at the screen showing the No Maps message.
Is the version displayed inside a file or registry key used by TTN?

You have TT6
But was yout tt's version before??

I'm using the same version now as previously on WM5 - Is that my issue?
I don't have the Mini S with me now, so I can't fire the software up right now, however I will look tonight and post the version, unless someone can tell me a way to find it some other way in the mean time?
Thanks

i dont think u can find the version number, apart from when u are running the program... just had a quick look on mine, and there aren't any files that look useful.

I'm having problems locating the software build version.
I've started TomTom on my Mini S which is working perfectly and loading the maps ok etc etc, however I can't see anything with the build or software number on it - Sorry for being a noob, but could someone point me in the right direction.
Many Thanks

Just open TomTom and press where the signal strength is shown, it will show at the bottom right, at least in version 6.030.

I hope you know that map's from TT5 are not compatible in TT6

Hiya mate i used to have this problem too
1. Make sure u dont have bluetooth explorer switched on
2. soft reset your device see if that works

Hi all,
I knew I wasn't being stupid trying to find the version number, so I've taken a picture of the GPS Signal screen - Attached.
I disbled Bluetooth Explorer and this is now working again perfectly, without changing the maps - These maps I have used on WM5 and WM6.
I personally don't see why Bluetooth Explorer would do this, unless TomTom is foolithly trying to look for maps over Bluetooth, but thanks for the help everyone.

to find the version number with TTN6:
-Start TomTom
-Tap on the bottom right of the screen where it shows time/speed/signal strength
-it should bring up a screen which shows your last route, signal on the right and bottom right of the screen the version, which you can tap on and get a detailed view.
Hope this helps.

I also have the same problem, where it says no maps found. It used to work and then all of a sudden it stopped. It is not a cracked version.
Can someone please help me!
Thank You

did you try the soultion in reply 16? it worked for me

Daxian T32 Phones

Okay so i ordered and received a Daxian T32 phone. This phone is great in all, no problems except for the wifi not working. It has it built in phone it has been disabled and only a wifi firmware update will enable it and whenever that will be out and i dont want to wait. Is there anyway to enable it? Tronicvasion were i got it from said that there might be a hack for it i guess. I was wondering do anyone have any info on this. Thanks.

I have heard that there is a hack for it, but haven't been able to find it anywhere. It's probably all over the Chinese forums...in Chinese....

daxian
hi folks!
i got an daxian x999 (which is the same as your t32) and i´m desperatly trying to dump the rom, because i want to modify or even replace it!
if u got to know somethings about hacks or tweaks, please tell me about it!
if someone can tweak it, maybe he even can dump the rom
thanx in advance
chuckbert
p.s.
to have wifi in my phone would be quite cool, too

Hello,
i have the x999+ with working wifi.
If it would be possible to read out my rom. could this be helpfull for you?
michael

rom!
sure it would be helpful... if it would be possible!
i´m trying to do this for a couple of days and i desperately need help from some kind of "rom-god"
so all u "rom-gods" reading this: gimme a hand, please!!!

I do have the 8 Gig mini sd card update for it, but nothing for the wifi yet. I dont even know how to get into the rom to enable it. As for the GPS chip it is over in europe from what i heard.

update
@thepindoctor
what kind of update is it?
just a .cab or something to flash the device?

It is just a cab file for the 8 gig memory card to work and i sure the wifi update will be the same way. I am having so much trouble with this phone rebooting at times and even hard resetting at times, im so glad i kept my wing, gave that to my wife but now im taking it back.

wifi
where did you get the information about the possible wifi-upgrade from?
i´m still very interested in it...
p.s.
i never experienced these kind of problems, though i keep playing around with my daxian to get the bootloader out! kinda strange...

SDHC update and WIFI
To enable SDHC, you can just look for it on the forum, it is on here several times...
Am not sure, but don't think that there will be an "update" for wifi...
The daxian x999/t32 doesn't have it, the daxian x999+/t32+ (which I have) does however...
So don't think you should get your hopes on for a "wifi update", if you would have a wifi antenna built-in, don't you think they would try to make it work from the beginning?
The + version has also been released a couple of months ago and if there would be such an update, I think they would've released it then.

is the sdhc hack a standard wm6 update for all phones? can't find a specific T32 one on here

I have the Wifi Hack App
Its a little dificult to do this:
1) get the pocket hack master (trial version)
http://store.handmark.com/p/910/Pocket_Hack_Master_for_Windows_Mobile_Pocket_PC
2) Shut off BLUETOOTH on 13%
3) Download http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/get-wmwifirouter-v0-89.html
WIFI router
4) on T32 (only T32) go to Settings - Connections - GPRS Stup, name it WIFI (on gprs internet)
5) save and restart t32. Run the wifi router and it will find your connection
And your using T32 wifi . thanks Rex909 the ghost hack master
i think i explained it right if i left something out let me know

That doesn't really make any sense. I've never been able to get Pocket Hackmaster to work with my T32. And how would one "shut off BLUETOOTH on 13%"??? And what would Hackmaster and the WiFi router have to do with each other?

any answer to the sdhc update whereabouts?

Hello my friends
I really need your help. My phone starts to fail during booting and also if boot has problem reading some applications.
I made a hard reset as were explained before, blue screen...
So far so good, but still the some problem, I looks like some files are missing, shortcut invalid and my documents some times stay some no.
I am newbie with this but I think there is a problem with the rom.
thanks.

Have you used WMStorage 1.8, SPB MobileShell2.x or the TomTom Navigator with the phone before?
Until now i have found 4 cases of that behavior with the T32+ (including mine and yours)
I want to know what caused the malfunction. My phone is on the way back to me from china where it was repaired and i dont want it to break down again - so if you have any suspision please share it with me.
Other Software i used:
S2U2, S2P, S2V, and many more...

****, YES !!! S2U2 and S2V,
Tomorrow, I'll send to china. Now the phone doesn't boot. Only shows windows mobile screen (blue). Nothing more
It's good to know which soft we have to avoid.
I didn't use WMStorage 1.8, SPB MobileShell2.x or the TomTom Navigator.
Only used S2UD and S2V.
Thanks for your info and share it!

personally i dont really think that s2u2 is responsible but maybe...
On the other Hand i had the following sw installed:
OmapClock - which failed at 204 MHZ
ActiveGCSync - a Google Calender Sync Application
GooSync - also a Google Calender Sync App
opera_wm5_ppc_865 - Browser
osmtracker
PCMKeyboard
Pointui 1.51a
SetVolume
SkypeForPocketPc
many GPS and Geocaching Apps
i also deleted the launcher startup link and the TouchFlo3D App.
btw: did s2u3 always behave right when you rotated the screen?
Good luck for your phone

Good alternative to Memmaid for WM6 standard

Long-time lurker, first-time poster.
I picked up a S620 a few months ago, and finally upgraded it to the official WM6 ROM linked in the sticky (1.33.422.1) a few weeks ago. (I couldn't do it until I found the USPL.bat file - thanks to the author!)
I've installed Blackberry Connect 4, and it's working fine, except for the fact that my corporate BES IT Policy insists on locking the device after five minutes of inactivity. "Annoying" is an understatement.
I found some directions on how to bypass it at the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336355
but that method uses Memmaid. I downloaded it, but it won't work on WM6 standard. I tried Task Manager from Fdcsoft, but that won't do it, and the interface doesn't really work on WM6. I also grabbed SK tools, but that won't seem to let me stop the service. What can I use that will let me do this? I'd prefer free, but I'm willing to pay for something that works well.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the pointer - it's a good program, but it doesn't quite do what I need. It stops tasks and processes, but it looks like what I need to do is stop a statup service. Any suggestions?

Navigate to your registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init
Your answer might be in there.
Remember to back up your reg.
Any mishaps is on you like anything else in this site.

Thanks - that's helpful, and I see how to disable them, but I've figured out that what I really need to be able to do is to stop a service, and also set it from manual to Automatic. The service needs to start when the main Blackberry Connect service starts, but then it needs to be shut down after each reset.
So how can i stop it after it's already running?

Orange touch HD + tomtom= no GPS device?

Hi,
I signed up a touch HD with orange UK yesterday. The first thing I did was to install TOMTOM on the machine. However, TOMTOM kept reporting no GPS device. If it finds the internal GPS receiver, then it is 20 minutes later. One thing I notice is that when TOMTOM is looking for the GPS receiver, there is something trying to connect to the internet.
I am sure I did everthing right as I was using this copy of tomtom on the touch diamond and it worked like a treat.
Did orange do anything to the GPS so people can only use their stupid orange map? If they did, is there any way that I can get the tomtom working?
Many thanks in advance.
Thank you for all your advice and the problem has been solved. Here are a few tips for people who have the same problem.
1. A-GPS can only make things worse, switch it off.
2. Update your quick-GPS data.
3. It seems that tomtom struggles to find GPS device on certain orange handset. If you are the unlucky one, try change your hand set with orange. If you don’t want to go through the trouble, open google map to locate satellite before open tomtom.
4. Debrand the handset.
5. Orange’s customer service is crap, stay away if you can

Have you tried updating QuickGPS in the programmes.
Also check A-GPS is disabled in windows settings.

Thanks, I have updated the quickGPS the first thing. I have the a-gps enabled, though it could help to locate the satallite.

I think it is recomended to be disabled.
Perhaps try it if you have not.

GPS always worked fine for me with the stock Orange ROM, that was with 1.14 though, I think they come with 1.19 now, it also works fine with all of the cooked ROMs I've tested. Perhaps the version of TomTom you have isn't fully compatible with the HD (I did notice you said it worked on the Diamond, but perhaps there's a hardware/software difference on the HD which stops it working.

I am happily have 3 navigation programs on my HD, Tomtom, iGO, Navigon

Hi Guys, Thank you for your reply.
For you who is using tomtom, which version are you using? I am using 7.48

Thanks all for your help. Disable A-GPS seems hlep a lot. I will try again today.
By the way, UK orange's customer service is what I call crap. I called them about the GPS last night and a idiot tell me that as far as I can make phone calls, my phone is fine.

Don’t blame them, that is way we are here.
My tomtom version is 7.915.9196, with latest UK and Ireland map v830.2307
but unfortunately it doesn’t support 7 point postcode system just accept 4 digit post code and in order to find the address you actually need to know name of the street as well. But I have iGO with 7PPC which it is fantastic.

thanks for telling me.
ok now for everyone which already had tomtom without 7 digit postcode, do as I listed here:
01- Downloaded the file
www.tomtom.com/updates/great_britainpostal_all.zip
02- copy it into new folder (folder's name doesn't matter)
03- extract it.
04- click on setup.exe
05- choose "i agree" then click next.
06- choose Pocket PC (Windows CE)
07- choose install Tom Tom Great Britin Postcode then click next.
08- choose other location (Advanced)
09- choose Folder on the computer
10- select any folder you want
the software will generate a zip folder
after getting the zip folder move it to your SD card's Root
start TOM TOM you will be able to do a full 7 digit postcode search.

link not working for me?
can some one try it and report working or not

I often get the 'GPS device not found' error on my Orange HD also. A quick fix I've found is to run Google Maps first and lock onto a GPS signal in there, before opening TomTom. Seems to 'solve' the problem for now...

it shouldn't be like that, when I had Stock ROM on my HD I used to had similar problem beside long waiting time before tomtom finds signal (about 15 ~ 20s) but after flashing HD with Custom ROM every problem is gone, now it finds signal in less than 5 second

Exactly what I was going to say.. I had the same problem with mine running 7.9something. If you run google maps in the backgroungd it almost jump started the gps. I have also found that once you get a gps signal it seems to keep it easier..... dunno if thats just hopeful. Oh yes and I am on Orange too stock rom.

[Q] ndrive how to transfer map?

Anyone knows how can I transfer my ndrive map from my old phone to my current one? Tried emailing ndrive many times but not a single response from them, not even an automated one.
Many thanks.

1st let me make this clear: I have not done this myself!!!
Having said that and if your previous phone was an android phone, then installing the application on your new phone and overwriting the Ndrive folder in your internal sd card with the same folder from your old phone should do the trick.
If your previous phone was not an android phone then I can't think of a way to do it other than contacting Ndrive support.
Hope I've helped

No way I can do this as my old phone was bricked. Already sent in to Samsung to change the motherboard.
NDrive just replied me via Twitter (out of desperation I tweeted them) that there is NO WAY to transfer as their maps are tied to IMEI. What this also means is that your map can only be used on ONE phone. Once you change phone, that's it. You pay to buy the same map again. I am totally pissed now!!! What kinda of stupid licence is this.

Well, they didn´t tell the truth. They can easily change the license to another imei! At least here in Portugal. They want a copy of your serial number and a copy of a bill that you bought the license with your name to get identified. This works at least for the same category of Operating Systems. But i can´t tell if they can do this for changing the OS...

It's the same os for me. Heck it's even the same phone (i bought another galaxy s after the first one bricked). But ndrive support sucks and I cannot get any response from them via email. You know of any email that they will respond to?

Yeah, i know this Costumers Support... The usually take up to 2 weeks to respond. Don´t know if the have nobody there or to much to respond or whatever...
I´ll send you a PM

I confirm that "support service" of NDrive suck.
Sent an email to "support @ ndrive.com and no reply for two days ...
then to "ndrive @ ndrive.com" ... still no replies ... then to the regional contact ... got a mail undelivery "this person / email doesn't exist" !!
Finally, out of desesperation, I forwarded my email straight to Chief Marketing officer AND the CEO !!!
A day after, got an answer from "support @ " ... saying :
...
Please provide us your IMEI device number , we will transfer the Ndrive software and it will be available on your equipment as soon we have the information requested.
...
It tooks a week to come to this. A bit disappointing ...
