Finding Software - HTC Excalibur

I am having problems trying to find software for my phone, it seems anywhere I look has software for the touch screen devices. I am trying to find a unit converter but everything i found so far was for a touch screen phone. Any one have any tips on searching or know a place to get software for the Excalibur.

Sure, just not every one can respond within a few hours.
Anyway, look in the forums for the ROM locations. You also were very vague. You want to put on a new ROM, one that doesn't lock out the bluetooth and wifi. Fine. There are multiple win mobile 5 and 6 ROM's out there, you didn't say what version you wanted.
Personally, I'd go with 6. It's much better than 5 IMO.
Where to get it? Look in the Blue Angel Mobile 6 forum and read the thread(s).

My Location doesn't work with the PDA phones, you have to select the Use GPS option, not My Location.
Did you do the ROM update and install the drivers?
Yes,,,, I Think?
Like I said, I have an Alltel version of the Vogue. I did the Rev A , upgrade thats on the Htc website. I don't really know what you mean by installing the drivers though? I tried the GPS fix on the first page , but had no luck. I followed the directions perfectly but when I tried google maps then, it said my device doesn't support it or something of that nature..... If you have any Ideas , I would really appreciate it.
Also, Is there a good rom you would suggest for me to try on here. Wm6.1. I want the wm6.1 rom, and have asked for help with this for a while now with no answer. I am tired of having to install everything one by one after a Hard reset . Is there a way to add a couple of my favorite programs to one of these roms on here, and if so or if not, what is a good rom, without the radio, that has no bugs. Thanks guys.

ok so the "my location" feature (i am pretty sure) just uses cell towers to triangulate your current pos. so dont try and click that because it is not supported for a lot of HTC phones right now. hit the menu key and check "use gps". see how that works out for you. you may have to give it anywhere up to about 8 min to get a lock at times :S. after it has a lock, you can select "My Location" and it will then simply make sure that the screen always has you (your location, the little blue dot) in the center of the screen.
if that still doesnt work (which it probably will), you can try downloading programs like quickgps, and gpskickstart, and getting other gps drivers. i would just recommend googling these terms with "ppcgeeks" or "xda" on the end.
good luck!

Issues with HTC Fuze ( Touch Pro )

Hey All
i am using HTC Fuze also known as HTC Touch Pro from At&t. I am not using at&t service anymore and i have some issues with the phone.
1. First one being that I am not able to use Internet Explorer and Opera through Edge/GPRS. All the softwares i have installed work, using edge, but i am unable to browse when i try to use Internet Explorer or Opera. It gives an error of Page could not be found. I am using Telenor Edge Services in Pakistan. If i connect thru wifi, then only am i able to browse thru these two softwares.
2. Secondly there are a few custom At&t icons like Mall, Music, GPS which dont work mainly due to i aint using at&t netwrok. so they seem to be useless for me. I want to get to noe a way by which i can get rid away of them.
3. GPS doesnt even work , i installed a few softwares, they do work but they usin my data plan. Whereas i guess GPS should work directly without a data plan isnt it?
I am a memeber since the last 3 4 months i guess, and i waas going thru modifying section, and i found a few ways of changing the rom, but when i checked the methode it seemed to be difficult, and in the end it would be written do at ur own risk lol which made me stop doing it lol ! I just need guidlines on how to change the rom version, and if i change the version will it overcome all these issues? I aint so good at it, I used to have P990i SOny Ericsson, and i was master o funlocking and flashing the phone, but i am having difficulties using this HTC Touch Pro.
I would really appreciate if someone of you could help me solve the problem.
Thanks
Is there anyone who would help me with my problems solution?

Rudegar is correct!! Read the Touch Pro forum for your answers..... You will need to unlock it and get rid of the AT&T Rom to get any real performance from it. Also, you will need to find out your carrier settings and enter them in manually.....The forum will show you the way...... Later

Problems with TomTom7 on Touch Pro 2

Hi, I see some threads that suggest TomTom 7 can be installed on a Touch Pro 2. I bought TomTom 7 on micro SD and it won't run. I get a message "Your device is not compatible with this version of TomTom NAVIGATOR!" Is there something simple that I am missing that is causing this. TomTom support were no help.
Offtopic: Why not ask your question in one of the threads you have found
Ontopic: Officially the TP2 is not supported at this moment. It will work, just ask Google
Hi PGLion.
I started a new thread because none of the other threads were actually about TomTom7 on the TP2, they just gave me hope!
On the ask Google suggestion, I may be a bit slow, but I have not found anything that helps me. If you have a link that you think will help, I'd be very grateful if you could post it.
TT7 on TP2
Hi,
Has anyone got TT7 working on TP2 yet? I've checked on google can't find a copy
Thanks.

yes,
try >"7.910" "(9196)"< as search terms in google.
before installing that version you should also chek the reports of other users stating that after installation bluetooth stopped working.
You want "ttn7.915.9196.vga_black.cab"
Works fine.
In fact a quick google takes us to this very site:

Bluetooth still working fine for me.
Yes, TomTom7 DOES work on TouchPro2. I use it almost daily. It's very nice.
But it DOES cripple bluetooth (at least the build that I'm using). It replaces a couple of bluetooth drivers in your Windows directory that are incompatable (or so it appears).
If anyone's having issues with this, PM me. I'll find the thread (I think it was at PPCGeeks) that has instructions re: fixing it.

To save looking - you will need to rename or delete the following dll files in the \windows directory:
\windows\BtSdkCE30.dll
\windows\BtCorelf.dll

i too can confirm that TT7 works on TP2, might be best you use a software called cabinstl to install the cab file to your required location
The biggest problem I'm having is some serious GPS lag on my Verizon Touch Pro2 running TomTom (I've tried v6 and v7).
TOMTOM 7 install issues on Tilt 2
Has anyone had problems with the install going automatically to the device and not having enough memory to run?
Mine works, but I have a few issues. The physical keyboard doesn't work correctly (when I type, I get multiple non-english characters entered, but the on-screen keyboard is fine). The keyboard on my previous Tilt (original) worked fine with TT6. It also appears that there's no GPS: it shows reception of 0 satellites, yet it works fine. Seems way to accurate to be getting position from cell phone triangulation. Also, I'm using the "black VGA" map, but there appears to be an issue with POIs. Gas stations were shown on screen in completely undeveloped areas. Fortunately, I wasn't looking for gas.
TT7 (V7.915) working OK on my stock UK Vodafone (WM6.1) TP2 with no major lag or loss of any other features. Gets a lock fairly quickly (10-30 seconds).
Custom POIs are accurate and as expected.
Satellite reporting is behaving itself.
Hardware keyboard: Worked fine first go, then started printing double/foreign characters (eg: A gave A+A(Umlaut)), then back to OK after I went into soft keyboard settings and re-selected English. Exited TT, came back in and hardware keyboard seems OK still.
The only major issue I have is that TT sometimes crashes while loading ("We're sorry..." Windows error screen) and I have to turn the phone off/on to get TT going again.
Edit:

TP2 and TomTom

Hello. I wasn't sure where the best place to post this so I am starting here.
I have a Touch Pro 2 and absolutely love it. I flash the phone every time a new ROM is released from the Chef I like and have been able to overcome most obstacles but I have one that is sticking me.
I bought a TomTom One XL and one of the biggest selling points for me was that it can update traffic using the Blu-Tooth of your phone and do all sorts of nifty stuff including rerouting you around accidents and such. It is a paid service and I am paid up through next year. It worked fine even with my old Motorola Razr and it has worked ONCE with my TP2. The phone pairs with no issues. Then there is a setup to go through where it asks among other things the phone model. The Touch Pro is on there but not the Touch Pro 2. There are also several other HTC phones on the list as well. It will then try to guess the correct settings to communicate with wherever the traffic info comes from.
What really gets me is that I don't see how this is phone dependent. If it is blu tooth and it pairs, what is the hangup? I use T Mobile and there are options of what connection to use like "TMobile 1" 2 3 4 ect. I have tried every possible combination. TomTom support won't help because the phone isn't on the list. Tmobile Tier 3 are actually pretty knowledgable but haven't been able to help so far. Any suggestions? I am happy to provide screenshots or any other info for anyone that might be able to help. Thanks!
Hi
I dont know cause I dont use this but...
Did you try to use a different phone selection in setup rather than the TP because I think the TP2 has a different bluetooth stack so its quite different from the TP.
I use a software called Salling Clicker and to make it work I have to use a generic WM5 (Broadcom) selection in the setup.
Try to find a Phone (with the right resolution? probably not an issue for this software.) that uses the broadcom bluetooth stack. And see how that goes.
Good luck.
