Hello,
This is my first post,
I did search the forum but i couldnt find an answer.
I have a Trinity/HTC 3600 with WM 6 (adewidth s dutch version).
And i have a weird problem
Thw WM5 Storage is working fine, when i activate it i see in windows (vista) the removable drive appear. Access is fine.
But wheni want to copy MP3's it starts copying and after a few seconds windows says (translated form dutch): "can't read from source file"
The files are fine and copyable, (no read only or stomething like that).
It s not only mp3. The weird thing i noticed till now is, when i pick very small files, it does copy it to the sd-card on my HTC Trinity. But as soon as it's a bit bigger (i dont know excactly, i guess it when it s bigger then 600 K)
It gives this problem.
Mayeb it has nothing to do with the fiels size, i dont know, mayeb it s a coincidence but it seems like.
It just wont copy the file and gives that message: Can't read source file"
Any suggestions or experiences with this
thnx in advance

Hello, I have a legal tomtom v 5.21 installed on my BA. till now i was using a v562 map and ordered the latest cd of european & gb maps from the tomtom site. I got the Cd and I had run the whole setup on from my computer, followed all the instructions of adding GB / france maps onto my 2gb mmc card and it copied everything on the sd card and gave the msg Installation complete.
Now when i switch tomtom ON - on my ppc, it displays me an empty screen, i mean a greyed screen with a + ad - icons on the top left n right side and all gray i dont know y.
I tried to switch to my old map and it works fine, but when i tried to swtich onto the new one, it doesnt. I even tried to install the GB plus map tht came on the CD and it still appears gray. Can someone please help me, y is this happening, is there something wrong that i did. I mean i just followed the instructions on the cd.
cheers
Try deleting currentmap.dat from \my documents\tomtom and then run with the new maps again.
did you copy your Great_Britain_Plus-Map.cfg from your old map folder into your new map folder?
nop mate, i didnt copy the .cfg file. ill try it out today, do you want me to copy or not to copy. cheers
Install the new map, copy the old Great_Britain_Plus-Map.cfg file into the new folder - you may need to rename it because the configuration file should match the name of the map folder so if the map folder is Great_Britain_Plus_Map the configuration file should be Great_Britain_Plus_Map.cfg or if you map folder is Great-Britain-Map then your configuration file should be Great-Britain-Map.cfg
In my experience it is well worth deleting currentmap.dat from the \my documents\tomtom this file doesn’t contain anything of interest it seems to just remember the name and location of the map you last used, although it has just accrued to me that I don’t think this is causing your problems as this would normally cure a “map not found” error message!
To check that you have got the configuration file name correct run TomTom and then check that there is only one .cfg in the map folder, if there are two then you have made a mistake with the name.
The configuration file contains, favourites, history, home location and GPS setup
Hope this makes sense, difficult to explain on here!!
Cheers Bluetba for the help, It worked but in a very diff way. I copied the map again on the the SD card, deleted the currentmap.dat file, but then tomtom wasnt able to pik up the map, u know when you get the map choice and you select the relevant map, tomtom got stuck there.
Lucky, i copied the currentmap.dat back to tomtom folder, then ran tomtom again, selected the map V605 and it worked perfect, dono whts wrong, but it shows me everything perfect.
But is V605 perfectly working, i read 2-3 comments that its not suitable, doesnt plan perfect. dono if you know abt it.. cheers anyway mate
Glad you got it working, bit strange though!
I had no problems with V605, well othing obvious that I can remember anyway and I use TomTom alot, and I would rather have an upto date road map than anything else anyway.
I am using V671 and that has an error in my area that has been introduced into this version, strange really but I did read somewhere that map makers introduce errors so that they can identlfy which version is which and where they came from.
Glad your sorted
Cheers
hahaha, i was reading a post where one of the users mentioned that he was going to manchester via the long flyover in birmingham.... and tomtom said - go straight - which meant, to smash into the concrete divider and fall down.. hahahah... strange..
well bluetba, do u know how can i add addresses to my contacts, i meant contact navigation. I cant see any program or icon on how to add address details to the contact. Cheers mate
I searched all the threads containing tomtom and WM6. I have a legitamate copy of tomtom that came with my german o2 orbit. i just put bepes wm6 on my phone and have been trying to figure out how to get the tomtom program back on it. i looked through all the files and options on my tomtom home and on the cd it came with but nothing other than the option to install the maps (already there) seems to be present. am i retarded? (dont worry I can take an honest answer) or is there no straight forward way to get this back on my phone without changing back to another rom?
Just run the cab file on your memory card. Thats what I did and it worked.
Tried that, I knew I would have some issues with this so I made sure to look everything up before the upgrade. When I try to run any of the files on my card it tells me there is no application to run the software. I am downloading the 'taster version' of tomtom for the 3600 form HTC right now, I will see if that does the trick.

Had the same issue, as alway the forum to the rescue
OK, that worked, now how to get it to show on the today screen...option is not in the today menu option.
I used a borrowed IMEI to get this off of HTC's website.
Anyone want a copy of this?

I have just updated my TyTN to WM6. It all went well (it was renamed frpm TyTN to Hermes200, but I can live with that,,,) BUT, it seems to think it has lost its memory. When I try to start a PIM (Agenda Fusion 8.5) it just wont start properly, it goes on "updating" the appointments and tasks, and the suddenly returns to my start screen. Also, when trying to sync it says "sync can not be completed" too little memory left... And when I tried to delete a task, it said there was to little memory to start the program, and suggested that I should go to "System - memory" and stop some programs there. BUT there were no programs running, and I have 8MB memory for program and 14 MB for storing left... That has been enough before...
Anyone having had and/or solved this issue? Thanks in advance!

Bad blocks?
Your device may have a bunch of bad blocks. If you've got Hard-SPL installed, they can most likely be fixed.
That sounds great! I have read through the post you suggested, but it was a bit too technical for my english, do I just take the "hard-SPL" and install it on my device, and then start it? (I might with this question not only proof that I am swedish, I might also be a bit non-technically-stupid... )
instant tall hard SPLv7 which you should have done before flashing anyway to be on the safe side. then download MTTY to your desktop/laptop. start MTTY and in the cmd prompt type info 8 and that will tell you if you have bad blocks. if you do type task 2a if I remember right and that will fix them. its not hard at all if you follow directions carefully. one thing though MTTY only works with XP not vista.
Thanks for that! You say I should have had it installed before, but I can install it now afterwords?
I have a swedish update to WM6, does that matter?
Sorry.. I have to have some more help... Should I do i like this:
1) make ha hard reset of the TyTN
2) install Hard SPLv7
3) Download MTTY (what is this..?)
4) "fix it"
5) put my back up back again
I am not so used to this, excuse if I ask stupid questions... My TyTN is though at the moment more stupid than I am. I can not start the camera (not sufficiant memory), not start the contatcs list and the backup I have put back was not properly installed, the textmessages is missing, some settings is not there, I can etc. BUT the phone-part of the phone works better!
i am very much looking forward to some help here!
Thanks in advance!

Dunno if this is relevant to me here...
I upgraded to WM6 and already have the SPL bootloader in and a custom, er, rom. Seemed to work ok but towards the end of the day I noticed that the TASKS (ie reminders) wouldn't work, stating out of memory. Now the PIM is corrupt
Howdy,
Did a search but didn't find topic?
First mistake, Dnloaded and installed latest AT&T 6 Rom to me Hermes!
Second mistake, have Vista Home Prem (ugh!) Build 6000, and
had Windows Mobile Device Center installed and worked on Win Mobile 5. Could copy and paste files to SD card!
Installed on the new Rom, now I tick WMDC > Connect > GO to SD card > to paste file / app etc and get billies
"The copy and paste has failed. The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected!"
Even tho I can see files on SD card on laptop!
So I uninstall billies WMCD reboot laptop and reinstall WMCD and same error!
Now I can see the files on the SD Card, move the files around on the SD Card but no copy to SD card??????? I don't have a card reader as I used Win 5 and didn't need another reader!
Any suggestions, workarounds (besides getting rid of billies silly junk.)
Help please!

Hey thanks and fast reply,
I will try formatting sd card if I can find a way to back it up to something!
Does anyone know of a free online Back up site that I could back up sc card with Sktools bkup?
WOW have to much great stuff on it from xda forums!
I rally don't mean to add an off topic situation, but this also started when I installed the AT&T Rom. . .
The other problem that I just found out is that the sound is on, I can hear WM player out of device, but don't have sound for Skype with or w/o headset. As I can connect to call, hear the mic on called phone, the caller hears me but I don't hear the called sound on device or head set???? Im using fling and am connected with wifi, to Skype!
At least it's charging off usb sync, which is one thing that works!
If I can't discuss anothe problem with this New Rom here please move to right place and send a forward!
I really like this board, so I don't want to do anything wrong!
Thanks
Hey there,
I did a defrag SD card NO work!
Than I did a format
Connected (thats what it says but not what it does) and copy and past NO go. . . same error!
Tried to install Sk Tools, (from pc to device as before) and no go, same error of disconnected or what ever? And since I can't do a restore form pc to device, no copy, than None of my SD base apps work, Sk Tools, fling, etc!
So is the SD corrupt!
I vista corrupt (that's a dumb Q)?
Is WMCD corrupt that was working before my new Hard Drive replacement!
Or what?
Oh yea thank you for any replys!
I am also have the same problem.
Hello to all,
I am also have the same problem. Not with the sd card but with the build-in memory. I have installed the windows vista with WMDC 6.0.
I think this problem is with the OS or with the WMDC 6.0.
Because I have an another pc with windows xp installed and there is NO problem with it. Copy and past will work perfect.
I having HTC Wizard that is qtek 9100 with WM6, NBD 9.2 installed.
If any one find the solution please let me know also.
Also conection via bluetooth to WMDC 6.0 it also not possible trying to find the solution but no luck . It will work in fine with winxp but not with the vista.
Please help.........
Many Thanks

Madefree,
I would suggest a couple of things:
- flash a different rom to your device, eg a WM 6.0 from Schaps.
- review the MrVANX guides (www.mrvanx.org).
Let us know how you get on.

Thanks wacky banana,
Well at least I know its not the SD card as I tried another with the same irritating gates error message!
I uninstalled and reinstalled WMDC three times and still no file transfer> I have to do any transfers with a cardreader! So I don't know if I can do an upgrade on the ROM as I really want to (as ATT 6 was really a downgrade!)
Thanks. . . .
I went to that link and they are upgrading the site. The following is stated at the ever begining . . .
.....Now make sure your device is on and activesync (or for vista users the WMDC) is running on your PC, connect up your device and allow it to sync. When this is done run "RUUWrapper.exe":.....
RUUWrapper.exe wasn't a link to a download so I guess "searching" is on really first on the "how to" list!
Thanks for the links and the reply, greatly appreciate any and all help at this point!
Have a good one!
How to upgrade my Qtek 9100 (HTC Wizard)?
Hello,
Sorry I wrote wrong ROM version. It is NBD 9.2 installed, NOT NBD 9.3.
Thanks
Srikanth.k
Well DUH ATT 6 allowed me to copy to a file, but only to inside the SD card from the PC but not to the card directly (root) w/o a folder to put it in!
Active Sync works but not DUH WMDC (whatever) crashed twice in one day so Im stick with clicking on My PC > than on HTC device, than Active Sync works better than DUH other option billy made!
It's a vista thing all DUH way!
Hey wacky banana took you fine advice and downladed Schaps.WWM 6.1 Pro FULL ROM and with the excellent RRU packed with it got RID of ATT's "stuff"
Still can't transfer to root of SD, unless I do it thru a cardreader, but at least I don't have DUH branded bulk! Just need to delete (turn off duh startup sounds, so everyone around don't growl at me when I reboot!
Mighty fine ROM thx for the suggestion . . . . gotta do a donate!
Later!
Copy file worked!
Hello
The problem was with the K-a-s-p-e-r-s-k-y AV that I was been installed. It was blocking me to copy the files to my PDA. When I uninstalled the app it worked perfect without any errors.
Please anyone know which is the best antivirus.....
Thanks to all.......

I have had my orbit for a while and has WM6. After about 15mins or so of continuous texting the whole thing just slows down completely (takes twice as long for functions to complete including inputting letters) until I do a soft reset. At that point if I try to access like settings it comes up with out of memory or something similar. I am beginning to suspect my 8Gb microsd card. Any ideas? Btw, no other programs are running in the background
Hi,
I had the same problem. It's a file in the Windows folder that keeps growing and growing. Mine ended up to be a whopping 26 Mb and clogged the main memory. It's a file that is related to the automatic word recognition while you're writing.
Youu'll have to enter the options of the keyboard and uncheck the corresponding option. Also you can hit the button right next to this option to erase all entries. And just to make sure, search the file in the windows folder (I forgot it's name, sorry, but you'll recognize it by its size) and erase the file.
Hope I could help you.
Thanks for your reply, I've just got rid of Wm6 and downloaded one the GW rom's so it's rectified the problem! But what file are you referring to in windows folder...I've looked through it and cant find anything to do with auto word recogntion???
