Tom Tom 6 Activation after ROM update - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi,
Firstly if this is in the wrong forum - appologies.
I have TomTom 6 and maps which I originally installed on my iPaq 4700, which has now died due to the touchscreen failing. Recently purchased a Wizard (from a popular auction site) and installed TT6 and maps no problem.
With my purchase was another supposedly dead wizard which I have manged to reflash with WM6 ROM and all is working fine (thanks to all the invaluable advise in the Wizard/WM6 forums!) which I now want to install TT6 on and uninstall from the other Wizard with a view to selling it.
The problem - TTcode website will not accept another device code so cannot activate maps. Spoken to TT who want everying including my inside leg measurement to activate (which I can understand however i have little chance of finding the original receipt).
Does anyone know how the device code is forumlated - ie If i flash the vanilla Wizard to WM6 will it change the device code?
Any help appreciated.
Thx
PS my version of TT6 is totally original - no hacks copies or dodgy downloads.

How to enable GPS with HTC p3600

hi
How to enable the GPS with HTC P3600 my ROM IS 1.17.415.3
THANKS FOR HELP
rom upgrades, either here or from htc itself if it is really an HTC-branded device
from where can i have the recent rom
Lol I wish we could just enable GPS in Touch like we can in Trinity....
There is hidden quad-band but I doubt there is GPS in my Touch.
And as for the ROM, you can get it from the HTC site.
please can any body send me the link
thanks
Just go safe for a start...
Hello, I guess you must be kidding since you already have 81 post, I don't think you are so unaware of Trinity stuffs...
Anyway, in case your request was serious, here below is the HTC club's registration link.
You just register, and then using your IMEI number, you just download the suitable GPS enabled rom for your device, according to your brand or unbrand, and your geographic area.
Just go safe and start using GPS with a safe official rom.
When you feel more confident, you'll find plenty of wm6 rom on this forum, cooked or rebuilt.

thank u very much for your reply
yes i am old in the forums but with my old imate pda2k i got this HTC only 2 days ago.
the second thing i already registered in the HTC club and added the IMEI of my HTC but they informed me that there is no new updates for it
any idea
thanks
update your signature with your new phone details
No problem, my pleasure to help in the extend of my limited knowledge.
OK, let's start from the beginning:
could you update your signature in order to let us know which version of rom, radio, protocole etc. you're running.
And can you tell also in which area you bought your device, this will decide which rom you can safely flash your phone with.
But what I can already understand from what you are saying is that your present rom is already up to date and fully GPS enabled like every rom since april/may 2007, and even earlier for some branded releases of the Trinity, like dopod in Asia (february 2007) or Vodaphone (march 2007).
What you need now is two steps:
1) first of all make the settings icon of GPS showing up in your settings/connexions tab.
(there is a registry tweak to do that, or more simple, just use trinityhacks v0.3 that you can find by making a search on this forum)
2) find an application that uses GPS:
tomtom navigator, gps tuner etc.
You can try a free one for a start: GPS Test, that you can find by using google.
thank you for your help
from my new signature u can know now that i still have old rom that is not supporting GPS.
i bought my HTC from saudi arabia
i know that there is update to my rom as i contacted HTC support and they already inform me that i have an update but when i put my IMEI number in the support site they informed me that there is no update rom suites my version
I've got the whole picture now...
OK
1) your rom, radio rom etc. are too old to activate the GPS on your device
So you'll need not only an OS upgrade, but also a radio rom one.
2)
to go safe and use a rom that is allowed by your device's CID, you'll need an English ROM, unbranded, for HTC P3600.
The GPS enabled version of ROM is 1.23.X.X for the ROM, and 1.38.X.X for the radio.
You can find a link on this forum (rapidshare, megaupload etc. for en official English rom of that type.
I'll also have a look for you. I could upload my old ROM for you, but no luck, it's a French one, so not compatible with your CID.
3) if you are brave enough (but it's all under your own responsibility if you brick your device...) you can try that too:
- use 'trinity unlock' or 'SPL_trin' or the new one 'olibro'that you can find on this forum to allow other brands ROM installation.
- flash your device with the official dopod ROM SEA for South-East-Asia in English (that I am running myself at the moment).
I suggest you use the one without radio, spl-ipl, extended rom.
It's safe since there is no risk of conflict with your present device locks.
- then you upgrade your radio with radio 1.46.X.X also from the Dopod's ROM.
This is what I've done, without all the hassles and risks that brings the full ROM update when it's not official HTC P3600 release compatible with your CID.
A thread where they talk about the official upgrade you are looking for, in English:

added in my last post
realy many thanks for you
i have downloaded the official rom and the new radio.
i will try to use them
again many thanks for your help
give us some feedback when you can
You're welcome.
It's a pleasure to help.
Don't forget to give us some feedback about your flashing process and result.
Once you've installed the new ROM, use trinityhacks to make the GPS visible and start using it, with 'GPS Test'. The GPS chip is not the fastest, so make sure you are outside, ideally with a good weather and not too many buildings over your head for the first try.
i will
thanks again
hi friend
i did upgrade my HTC P3600 TO
rom version 1.23.405.2
rom date 03/11/07
radio 1.41.00.11
protocol 32.74.7020.18h
extrom 1.23.405.103
BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT TO USE GPS
I TRIED TO USE TOM TOM NAVIGATOR BUT I GOT AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT THERE IS NO ENOUGHT MEMORRY
THEN I USED OTHER SOFTWARES THAT ALL FAILED TO FIND GPS
THANKS AGAIN
Hello,
nice to hear from you again.
As I told you in my previous post, the first thing to do wasn't to use Tomtom, but to make your GPS show up.
I suggest you first do a hardreset, in order to erase all the GPS softwares installations that you may have failed in the meantime.
1)
For a start, you should have first use Trinityhacks to add the GPS icon in your settings/connexions tab.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303657&highlight=trinity+hacks
(you could have found it yourself on the forum, by making a keyword search as I just did)
2)
After reboot, U'll see your GPS and check is settings that should GPD1 and most important communication port 9, plus its speed, expressed in bauds.
3)
after that, use a freeware called GPS Test (do a google search, u'll find it) and install it.
It will find itself your GPS on the right port. If it doesn't, just use the settings u've seen in the first step (com port 9 and highest speed you can)
4)
it should show looking for gps and then, gps starting up
it will search for a while before getting the fist lock (fix) on the sattelites)
when it starts, it's written 1D view, but when the fix is done, it will be 3D plus the location of the place where you are.
I suggested you to not start with tomtom from the beginning since it's not the easiest software to use with GPS, at first.
Some versions of tomtom does recognize the internal GPS without any special settings, but some doesnt, so you'll have to choose 'NMEA device' and then set it on the port com number 9.
But, try this freeware called GPS Test first, and tell me what it shows.
dear friend
thank you again for your help
really your are wonderful,
the GPS icon was shown by other way that i could find here in the forums by which i did some registery changes that showed the GPS icon in the connections.so i used this icon to adjust the com port to com 9 and to use intermediate speed.
then i used the navigon 6 program that i found how it use it in details in one Arabic forum
and it worked very nice with me.
i think i will not use tom tom again
thank you very much
Good news, you finally got your GPS up and running. Congrats.
Yes, the registry tweaks do just the same thing, and it's more challenging to do it that way, in the meantime you understand better how your device works.
I suggest (except if you've heard something different from your documentations) that you just let your GPS at its maximum speed, 115 200 bauds.
At the contrary, you can decide for each program using the GPS to set it to the full speed or to just use a part of it, but the GPS itself should be ready to give as much as it can.
I've never tried that software you mentioned. If it works so well, I might give a try sometimes. Thanks for the information.
i was informed to keep the speed at 57600 i will try to make it max
this navigon is simple to be used and a bit lite and has maps for some arabic countries
thanks again

HP IPaq hx2750 WM5 -> WM6... Success!

Hello all...
I've seen LOADS of questions relating to this particular model and upgrading to WM6, both on this forum and throughout the web.
I followed instructions from here, but alas I couldn't get the PDA to accept the new ROMs for various reasons. (I.e. ROM Sink Mismatch, Incorrect Model, Incorrect Version).
I then found this page burried in the links of the above thread, and tried the WM6 upgrade from it... I don't know if it's the PDA4 or the PDAViet ROM (or another altogether), but the big thing is: it works! Bluetooth, WiFi, Battery Indicator, Activsync... everything I can find to test works.
Now... I had originally got Windows Pocket PC 2003 with the device... I upgraded to WM5 using the official "WM5 Upgrade" from the HP UK website... I updated the firmware and drivers for WM5 from the same site, then I applied the WM6 ROM from the link above in White Boot loader mode.
One quick restart later, and now it's working...
So, thanks to all from the massive thread, thanks to the person who made that site, and thanks to whoever made the ROM

HX2750, WM6.5 Bluetooth Radio Problems
Hello,
I've installed Spaaitjies WM6.5 V4, and trying to run TOM TOM 7 on my iPAQ HX2750, I find that the Bluetooth Radio cannot be turned on. The error message that pops up reads:
"The Bluetooth Radio failed to turn ON due to insufficient driver memory available. You must perform a normal rest before you can turn ON the Bluetooth Radio"
So, naturally I've reset the device (soft & hard) but the issue remains. Can anyone advise what I might try next?
Many Thanks,
Gareth

Which BlackBerry Client on my Artemis?

Hello,
I have searched hours to have a blackberry client working on my Artemis :
- have tried many versions
- have tried different ROMs from Meschle
Everytime I have same result I cannot connect to Blackberry and the black berry client does not show any service...
Anyone have HTC P3300 (Artemis) with working Blackberry client?
Please advise I I really need this for my work...
My current configuration :
HTC Artemis P3300 unlocked
Meschle's ROM 4.02 Lite w CUBE
I live in the czech republic and my SIM card is a T-Mobile one with all services activated (BlackBerry + Edge...)
Thanks

look in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369269
Dont work
Thanks for reply but I already read this post among many others it does not work on my Artemis... still cannot connect or get an IP...
How to know which version of radio i have? is it on boot screen?
Thanks
I have an Artemis and I am using the blackberry functionality successfully. Here is a site where you can find all information about HTC and blackberry:
http://sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=276
Under Start-Settings-System-Device Information you can find all information required about the OS etc. of your Artemis. I use the 03.07.90 Radio version and it works fine for me. I use the Artemis Touch 3.01 Rom. Apparently nobody has been able to run the blackberry connect under WM 6.01.
For me it was crucial, to ask your IT department to re-activate my Blackberry account. Before, nothing worked and since then, it is quite stable. I use 4.0.0.97.
Hope this helps.
WM5?
Thanks a lot for reply.
So are you advising me to flash my device with a ROM containing WM5?
I would do it if I find that I can use BlackBerry as this is very important for me...
Are there any big differences between WM5 and WM6? Would I lack anything by downgrading ROMs?
Currently I have Artemis Touch 4.02 WM6.1 WWE ROM, 5.2.19199 (Build 19199.1.0.0) (Lite)
Thanks again.

Jeremy
As mentioned, Blackberry connect does not work with WM6.1, but does with WM6. I am using
Artemis Touch 3.01 Rom
which is based on WM6.
All OK
So I downgraded ROM from 4.02 Lite WM6.1 to 3.01 Lite ...
Then I installed BB Connect (same version as you as all others don't work with this ROM and my device)
Finally I got the everything working!!! What a releaf !!!
Thanks a lot!!
Nevertheless I am looking forward for next ROM from Meschle which will be compatible with newer releases of the BB Client...
Best regards,
P.S. I also tweaked registry in order to save my corporate emails to storage card instead of main memory!!
P.S.2 : Didn't you notice that your device is slower after installation of black berry services?
How did you do the tweak of the registry?
In some instances, my Artemis has become slower, sometimes it even seems, it hangs up. But it seems that this is the price to pay.
BTW, HTC and RIM have now entered into a strategic partnership and all future HTC models should be automatically provided with Blackberry connect. Thus we might see an updated version of Blackberry connect sonn, that also works with WM6.1.
...
Hey,
Thanks for update...
I have modified the registry this way :
1- add "PropertyPath" value="\Storage Card\Mail" datatype="string"
to this place in Registry : HKLM\System\Inbox\Settings
*** Note : Do not put quotes in the value... ***
*** You can edit registry with many editors such as PHM or TRK ***
2- Create a folder Mail in on your storage card
3- Copy whole content of \Windows\Messaging in the new created folder \Storage Card\Mail
4- Finally after you do this make sure that you take away the messaging today plugin from today screen (important... you can put it back after soft reset)
5- Soft Reset
-----------------------------
I have another problem now with the BB Connect. Since I installed it everything is fine just I have to unlock my phone every 30 min using a password. This is very annoying as you have to open keyboard and enter password everytime you dont use your phone for some time...
Do you have this as well?
Is there any way to disable locking of phone?
Thanks
Solved
I have solved the password issue :
I downloaded MEMMAID application which is able to manage system services and I manually stopped the BlackBerry Security service.
Be careful though this is a powerful piece of software which can really harm your device if misused...
advice : do not change the service startup type (auto/manual) just stop the service after each Soft Reset otherwise you will not be able to use your device after soft reboot.
I managed to get my Blackberry Connect working on my P3300. Here are the details:
HTC P3300 (purchased in India)
Artemis Touch 4.02 ROM
Radio 3.08.90
Blackberry Connect Version 4.0.0.97
Device Id set to HTC_P3300
HKLM\System\Version\AKU = .0.3.1
Carrier = Airtel India (http://www.airtel.in/wps/wcm/connect/airtel.in/Airtel.In/Home/ForYou/BlackBerry/)
Connecting to BES on Exchange at company workplace.
I see email, calendar, notes and contacts synced from my Outlook.
Thanks to all for the data/input on versions/radios, etc.
tip
Hey,
I updated ROM (6.1) and for some reason the connection would last few seconds and then I would loose IP address...
Long time I didn't know what to do and even going back to original working ROM it didn't work...
Finally, I deleted my internet connection and soft reset.. HOP the connection was up and running again
So now I will add again my internet GPRS connection (for www and other games/weahter...) and will see... Probably I have to setup some sort of exceptions in the lists to prioritize BlackBerry somehow...
Cheers.
BTW, BlackBerry works with WM 6.1 ! Also there is new version 4.0.0.100 which works as well for me.

FM-radio needed!!!

Hi,
I am new here,, just registered 5 minutes ago - so I hope I do everything correct to the rules, when searching for some tool as written below
bought a used HTC-artemis -earlier Tmobile but free of locks now-
Working fine only problem is, that the FMradio is not installed anymore. Simply that programme is missing, although must have been on it an working fine before as the icon is still there. Clicking on icon message is pooping up, that programme is not installed. Searched in RAM and on SD-card, but software is nowhere -
So, does someone have it and might give it to me????
thanks in advance and best regards!
marcus
maybe is better idea to search in artemis forum...
however ... here is the FM files from artemis, just extract to your win dir (should be working)
not able to install fm radio in my artemis
can you someone send me installation guidelines for installing fm radio in artemis
thanks

Touch Pro 2 and Tom Tom Navigator 7.916

Hi Everyone,
I just installed Tom Tom Navigator 7.916 on my T-Mobile TP2(WM6.5) and now Bluetooth no longer works.
Does anyone know what I can do to get Bluetooth working again? I tried reinstalling TT again but to no avail.
Thank you in advance for any useful information.

You're likely just using the wrong version. You've probably been around here for a while so you know how using the search feature can be your best friend.
Go here and download this version...
New Tomtom 916.9189 Specifically for TP2 Released
good luck
Aaron,
Thank you for your post!
I tried installing the version listed on the link you provided but I get the following message "Unable to start.Not enough memory is available." I have 1 GB available on my memory card.
I currently have a T-Mobile Touch Pro 2(WM6.5) and my current version of Tom Tom,which prevents bluetooth from working , is 7.916.9189.
Thank you in advance to anybody with any useful information.
Giovanni
Don't worry this is some what of an easy fix. Just search tom tom back on the general page and this should get you going. Sorry i can't post the appropriate links since the search function is down for me. But feel free to try it later.
There's an easy way to fix this:
1) install the TomTom that stops bluetooth from working
2) install any DECENT file explorer program that allows you to see the dates on files (total commander, etc etc, there's plenty out there)
3) look in your phones \Windows folder and you will see 2 Bluetooth files that have been replaced by the TomTom install, with wildly out-of date dates (something like 2006, when all the rest of the \Windows files should be dated 2008 or more recent)
4) DELETE them both
5) soft-reset phone ( losing no data)
As the phone reboots, it will spot the 2 missing Bluetooth files & replace them with the correct ones from the ROM, bingo, normal bluetooth service is restored and TomTom still works
I have used this trick on both my old Kaiser and both my TP2S, many times when reflashign ROMS and reinstalling a known good working version of TomTom that had the BT bug, it always works 100%
Joe
Heres a treat.
ttn7.916.9189__black.cab
or
TTN7.918.9193.cab
both have the files that cause the problem pre removed. Enjoy
Hi I renamed the 2 offending files and got rid of the BTTrayCE.exe error but I can't start tomtom it just says not enough memory. Any ideas? (Sorry to hijack this thread btw).
