I am trying put in an address in spain to navigate to
They have something which looks like a postcode it is 5 numbers but tomtom doesnt recoginse it nor does it recognise the place calahonda.
It seem to recognise all other areas in spain but not there can anyone help.
Hopefully very good english speaking spanish people
Thanks in advance
i cant help you with your (spain specific) problems. i just can make a few suggestion how to circumvent it:
i have found places that doesnt exist in tomtom. often the problem is that the place i am looking for is not really official. how about using the "location on map" function? ("Ort auf Karte" in german..that's what i use)
that of course doesnt help if you dont know where your destination is. in this case i try finding it with web based route planners.
it's not perfect, i know, but it might provide a solution.
You may upgrade your tomtom spain map?

Dear all,
Going today to exchange my french version to an english one. But I still have one question about the artemis. Does anyone know how to get hold of all the maps, at least for europe, for the Tomtom software.
Here in Luxembourg we buy the phone with one country map included. You can somehow register on the internet to download this one. But cant I somewhere download all the maps?
Regards,
Johan

You can buy them in a shop if you want more than that one map. Downloading from the internet is either not free or... yes... illegal

If you go to link below you should be able to buy the maps, I think you will have to register to do so?

You must have the tomtom product code first (should be delivered with your artemis, if the map was already loaded).
Otherwise even if you buy maps from TT site, you will not be able to register them.

I am having some problems with "Pocket MSN" and can't connect to messenger, be it through wifi or GPRS. God knows what version I have, I don't know how to find out. My device is WM5, an XDA Orbit from O2 and other than the extra software installed it is as it was out of the box, ROMs wise.
Basically it just says it's signing in forever.
Is this what I should be using to connect to MSN messenger? Is there something better? Is this a common problem? I searched the forums for MSN but it claimed no results (presumably due to query length).
Thanks.
install WM6 and use Windows Live
Do you know of a definitive guide on exactly how to do it? The forum for it seems filled with questions and answers but I didn't see a start to finish guide.
Also I doubt I really have time for that.
sorry but it is the most correct method that i can advise 2u =(
You dont need much time to install wm6 ) 20 min, and that's all.
just download firmware and click install if it is official ROM. Which device is yours?artemis?
Okay, I installed WM6 and it still doesn't work.
I choose sign in and it says I am signed in, but no contacts appear.
Hi, I bought a Comet for use in the US and unfortunately it only supports German, not English. Not a real problem though since I only have to learn a few words in German. The problem is that I can't seem to get Internet access. I entered "internet2.voicestream.com" and "wap.voicestream.com" in what I believe are the appropriate fields. When I try to connect to google (http://www.google.com), it seems to connect and begin the search but it never gets there and instead times out.
Can anyone help please? Thanks.
Hi,
I installed cube last night.. looks really good so far.
I'm off to the states soon with my XDA Orbit configured with Cube.
Does anyone have any suggestions for using a UK O2 XDA Orbit with Cube while in the states ?? - rather than find out the hard way
Do I need to do anything to use my installed TomTom free?
Thanks
Cube is cube, using it has no relevance to the country you are in.
From personal experience of travelling to the states, if you don't mind the data charges, install Windows Live Search, getting a GPS fix and searching for your nearest Wal-Mart etc is great.
Make sure you turn off any automatic data updates you don't need, ie weather etc.
For Tomtom, obviously you need the appropriate USA maps on your SD card and it's good to go. It found me some amazing shortcuts through Florida, however it also managed to find me a couple of dead ends. Roads change around alot in the states. Don't switch off common sense when switching on Sat Navs.
That's very helpful, especially "install Windows Live Search, getting a GPS fix and searching for your nearest Wal-Mart "
Thanks!
hi;
need help with my htc s621, was using it in Vancouver/ Canada;
couple of mounts ago used a service here to unlock it and was able to use it in Iran while I am staying;but with some problem;
on regional/Locale there is no Iran in the country list, there is problem that I think it is related to it;
when I make a call using the keypad, the call will be ended so it won't make a call, but if i save the number into the phone book and call the number from there; then it works, to mention that I changed the locale to Sweden, because this way at least i can make a call from phone book, and when I get a call can not return the all using the number, because it will add the country code to the number, so I have to enter into phone book and remove the country code then be able to use it.
anyway I can make this work?
some kind of ROM update ?
I have searched many local shops here, but there are other models of htc around but not excalibur to get some help;
appreciate any help;
Welcome to forums
have a deep read here:

Reflashing to a newer ROM could help your problem (which I don´t understand quite well)
Good luck,

Hi,
I am also in Vancouver although my phone is a T-Mobile Dash that I got on eBay. You really have a different problem here. I assume that you are using an Iranian SIM card when in Iran and not your Rogers/Fido SIM.
Another guy I work with has a Rogers s621 and even though I unlocked and flashed his ROM for him (originally to the Kavanna 6.1 and now to the EVO 6.5 ROM) he had trouble on trips to China with his China Mobile SIM which itself needed to be unlocked to use it. He ended up buying a phone over there instead.
I assume you are still using the Rogers 6.0 ROM, which is better than the T-Mobile but far behind either of the two I listed above. I would flash to Ookba's 3VO ROM, it is really great and runs beautifully. But follow the direction to the letter, don't skip any steps. I have no idea if it will solve your particular problem, but even if it won't you'll be a lot happier with the phone using it here in BC.
Here is the link to the ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523718
Thanks for the replies guys;
I will do some reading and will upgrade to see if it will become better or not;
yes I still have the Rogers 6.0 ROM; and use an Iranian SIM card;
I wonder if I upgrade and then some problem occurs is it possible to downgrade to what I have, perhaps a way to backup the ROM I have.
Thanks
As long as you follow the instructions on my previous post al should be ok, but in case it fails you can always go back and install another ROM, but believe me if you install any new ROM (6.1 or 6.5) you´ll be so happy that you won´t want to go back
OK;
I did install the new ROM (EVO 6.5 ROM);
it is very nice, I like it but the name of my country Iran is missing in this version also,
by the way I believe this ROM is application unlocked, I wonder why I can not install any application on it;
I searched online and found couple of free apps fo wm 6.5 but it won't be installed. I have not got any error or something.
some of the apps will go half and some up to the end but I don't find it anywhere.
any idea why?
if anyone has installed an application on htc s621 using same ROM please provide a name and a link to download if possible.
appreciate your help.

I don't know if this will help, or whether you have already tried it. You would probably have to do this while in Iran with the Iranian SIM card in the phone. Try entering your settings menu, All Settings > Phone > More > Networks > Menu > Preferred Networks. Scroll down to see if your Iranian network is shown with all the other international choices.
I have no idea how this list is generated, I assume it is by Rogers/Fido here in Vancouver. But you may have a political problem on your hands rather than technical. Are the sanctions against Iran reaching to some organization of cellular providers and the Iranian carriers are being blocked by them from being on the list? I don't know the answer, you would know a lot more about what is restricted in Iran (from within or without) than I would.
In any case, good luck.
OK; Here is what append with my phone;
I upgraded to 3VOLUTION series to see if the dialing problem will be solved or not, everything was OK after installation no errors or something, but as for the calling, as my phone had problem calling out using keypad, now this time after upgrading to wm6.5 my phone could not dial from phone book either,
so practically useless phone, it could only receive calls.
I searched for a solution online , did not find any answer, looked around phone shops here in my city, until I found a guy that said he can make it work, he had a box so in less than 20 minutes did something and phone start working properly, I can make a call from keypad and phone book no problem,
and in the location status the country of Iran is not listed either I am not sure what he did using the box.
I did asked the guy if I upgrade or downgrade WM can the same thing happen again, he was not sure.
I am thinking of downgrading to 6.1 since there are not much application found for 6.5.
but I don't want to pay the guy again for the same thing.
does anyone know of this things?
what he actually did with the box that can not be done without it?
appreciate any help
