After a lot of searching on here I have found the info I needed and by trial and error I have got TomTom Navigator 6 working on my HTC Touch HD. I have TTN6 Western Europe HTC P3300/P3600/X7500 version on DVD. It has taken a few hours to get it running but it runs now. Others have mentioned time lag when using it, I have not tried it in the car yet and will do that tommorrow. But all looks swell.
There was also an issue with TomTom over me changing from my HTC3300 which I originally ran the software on. You can only change it from one device to another once in 6 months so don't register the new device with TomTom until you have it all running. I had TomTom Home 2.7 installed and had registered my HTC3300 and TTN6 with TomTom. I had to set up a new email account to register TTN6 on my HD. (more about that later)
The new TomTom Home 2.7 does NOT work until you have installed TomTom on the HD! I un-installed it an put the original TomTom Home 1.5 back on from the DVD to get this all working.
The WVGAFIX3 program (mentioned below) is essential but it limits all apps to running in the top two thirds of your screen with a black bar underneath. Also i have not tried to use landscpe whilst running TTN6 as the screen size is already larger than on my HTC 3300.
So this is what I did.
1. Go here and download WVGAFIX3 and install this excellent little app (Big thanks Cotulla) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455974 and make sure you can get to it easily because you'll need to run it before TomTom starts up on your phone.
2. Use TomTom Home 1.5 (uninstall TomTom Home 2.7 if you have updated already). Plug in your HD and using TomTom Home install TTN6 onto the storage card whilst connected.
3. Turn your phone off then back on (or soft reset) and TomTom will try to automatically install.
4. Let it run through the process. (sorry but I cannot remember if TomTom then tries to start up after instalation) if it does start you will get a weird screen on your phone with the bottom half black and the top with a scrambled TomTom screen. (This is why to need Cotulla’s WVGAFIX3 program). Close TTN6 on the phone. (I pressed the “home” button and used the “close running apps” drop down)
6. Open WVGAFIX3 and choose VGA (480x640) BEFORE running TTN6. Run TTN6, it asks for you to register, I used "register automatically", and it asked for my TomTom Product Code. (it will be on the “credit card” that came with the DVD)
7. Once registered, go into “change preferences”, go to “show GPS status” and then “configure”. Choose other NMEA GPS receiver, select baud rate 115200, select com4. And that should be it as far as installation on the HD goes. (you don’t get the blue and grey bars in the GPS status window but the satellite numbers along the bottom go from grey to blue dots when registered). You will also see that the running programs now all only fill the top two thirds of the screen. DON'T forget to change back to WVGA (480x800) when you have closed TTN6.
8. I then went into TomTom Home and it said the phone was not “paired with/registered with” the details already in TomTom Home and asked if I wanted to update TomTom, I said yes and it sent info off. I’m a bit vague as to what steps happened here because I was beginning to get a bit p*ssed off. (But, I had to register a new email address with TomTom because there was some issue with having two devices on the same email logon when trying to use TomTom Home 2.7 initially).
9. Anyway, in TomTom Home 1.5 I logged in with my new email address and it said the phone was not registered with that account and did I want to update it. I said yes and it updated.
10. I then closed and reopened TomTom Home 1.5 and it said there was an updated version I chose to download and it updated to TomTom Home 2.7. I logged in using my new email details. When that ran it again wanted me to register the phone with TTN6 and TomTom so I said OK. and every thing seems to run fine.
I have not tried downloading new maps as I am happy with what I have at the moment. Also, I have not actually tried the SatNav in the car yet so I don’t know if there are any performance issues with the mapping and voices whilst on the move (all works fine in a static environment). Will use that tomorrow and see how it goes.
I hope this is of some use!

What is the difference with IGO8 and tomtom? I mean, why you install more applications to get it work, since igo8 works very stable with HD. I dont know if there is advantages of tomtom, didn't use it before. If there is some, please share with me.
Evan.
I just use TT7, works no problems
The main reason I posted this is that a few folks already have TomTom Navigator 6 and could do without being ripped off for TomTom 7 when 6 will actually work, (despite what TomTom tell you to try to make you pay again TomTom Navigator 6 WILL work with Touch HD!)!

pay for tomtom 7? you only need to buy the maps and tomtom 6 maps work with tomtom 7.

Did you pay for your maps? If your maps are legit that is all tom tom worries about. I have used this copy and activated my maps with it to another phone by getting a code from Tom Tom. They didn't care about the program...just the maps.
Just go to GPS Underground, MOD EDIT warez link removed . They have everything you need for whatever device or version you have.

I installed TomTom 5 on my qtek 9090 and when I choose navigate to address there is no screen keyboard. I think it detected the external keyboard and therefore is not showing it.
Anyway to get the screen keyboard working ?? :?:
:idea: Try the following...
In register of PDA..
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shell
Change..
HasKeyboard value from 1 to 0
To get to the register u can use the following app.
Registry Workshop from http://www.torchsoft.com
Install this on your PC and use file / Connect to register of mobile device
(Active sync must be connected to the device
Good Luck!
No luck
Didn't work
Changed > softreset >no keyboard
reinstalled >no keyboard
tt 4.4
I have the same prob with TomTom 4.4 and my Qtec 9090.
Hope someone comes up with a fix.
How is TT5, I was waiting to see if it was a lot better than 4.4 or much the same.
No I dont have the prob anymore. Changed to 0 rebooted and changed to smaller keybord in TT 4 and there it was.
Thanks DVB works fine and just in time for a 4 day weekend driving around up nth Holland. :lol: :roll: :wink:

I have the same problem with TT5.
I have asked the fench support of Tomtom and they replied to me that there was no issues for this at that time.
It is due to the fact that tomtom developpers have made the choice to consider the QTEK 9090 or similars like a Keyboard PPC (like HP6500 or Treo 650) to limit the number of version... that's what they said ... :shock:
As the QTEK 9090 do show a virtual keyboard on Street Number search or on reg screens and not on Town or Street name sreens, i do think that there is actualy a bug on QTEK 9090. It is also disapointing to try to type a poste code search with the hardware keyboard as when i press the "Fn" key i got a nice "Ñ" or when i press the "Shift" i got a "Ò"...
I think we should send a lot of request to the Tomtom support to have a chance to see an update in a future relaese (It could be an option whithin the parameters for exemple...)
...
Hi,
It was even worse in my case (I upgraded my Rom 1.22.556 to 1.40.553 since release of new Dutch retail a few days ago):
- As already mentioned the Registry hack (see reply from DVB4Free) works only for 4.4 version and not 5.0. I am still looking for a work-around to get my on-screen keyboard back while I wanna type a location/street to navigate to.
- Despite the fact I am using TomTom bluetooth receiver, I can't get my Qtek9090 connected to TomTom as long as I select the TomTom BT icon in wizard interface. After a lot tries I figured out that it only works if I select the 3th Icon (general bluetooth receiver) and not the second icon (the small silver color TomTom BT receiver). Isn't this odd?
- My 'Navigate To' item in Contacts popup menu is gone for good. It was working on TomTom 3.07 (and even on 4.4 so far I can remember). But since upgrade to v 5.0 I can't navigate to someone's address from my Contact list.
regards,
- Avareh
on screen keyboard
DVB4Free, dude is there nothing you can do to fix this problem? I tried it on TomTom 4 and it worked fine, after altering the key from 1 to 0 it worked. I have an XDA 2s and now I've just installed TomTom 5 I can't navigate to anything!
Cheers!

I have found that if you download the Great_Britain.postal file the Fn & Shift keys work ok so you can enter numbers
And also the added benefit of 7 digit postcodes, not sure about ppl who cant find a postal file for their own country though. But it worked for me so give it a try...
pscomp - I am new to all this :shock: , but just got tt5 and I also have a MDA III. Can you explain what you did to get the keys working.. Thanks in advance...not sure what you mean about the download etc...wherefrom and where too?
Hi,
I can't remember where I downloaded the file from. Ive tried to upload it but I think the ftp is down :? . But it looks like it may be here ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Blueangel/
All you do is create a folder called zip on your SD card and put the file in there. That is assuming you are using the Great Britain Map. I will keep trying to upload the file though.
Hope this helps you
Yay, got the file uploaded.
All you should need to do is download the file, unzip it and then stick it in the zip folder on your SD card.(That is assuming you are using the Great Britain Map)..
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/
The file is called GreatBritain.zip

same happens to me when I install 1calc
I bought a new TT5 UK BT kit that arrived yesterday.
I (obviously) have the ZIP file on the SD card and I still don't have an onscreen keyboard. The odd thing is, I'm pretty sure I did have an onscreen keyboard during the installation, as I used it to enter my "home" location.
I've logged a bug report with TomTom, if they come back with anything useful I'll let you know.
Q.
I bought an Artemis (standard package) a while ago and it shipped with Tomtom Navigator 6.020. I'd like to be able to know if there's a newer version of the software out, but so far, the only way I've found to be able to check this is through the TomTom Home desktop application, which doesn't seem to work with my Artemis's TomTom Navigator software.
Is there any page on the TomTom website where I can get Navigator updates (or at least check to see which version number is current)?
Also, I though I'd ask - 6.020 still is the most current version of Navigator, correct?
Although I don't own an Artemis a friend of mine does Tomtom home will function only if Tomtom is not running on the device.
One way to check for updates is either by GSM/GPRS/UTMS connection or when the device is connected via AS on a PC with an active internet connection. Go to Tomtom Plus services - Check for updates. Make sure you have a valid username and password for TT plus services.
My Artmis works good with TomTom home and yes, 6.0.20 ist the up-to-date-version
I have an XDA Orbit, I updated from Tomtom V5 to V6 today and works fine no problem, boots up a lot faster than TT5. Not sure why you have V6.020 , mine is V6.010 build (7720) which should be the latest?
By the way if anyone is upgrading from V5 to V6 maps, when it asks for which device you have pick MDA III if you don't you will only get V6 Maps, no TT6 Program.

Mike, I guess TOMTOM have done a special OEM bundle for the HTC P3300, I don't get the "Inbuilt GPS" option, I have to setup mine as "Other NMEA GPS reciever" Baud rate 4800 COM4,
Cheers

Just wondering why coz I recently bought tt6 and installed it on my S100 and the version says only 6.010 and when I try to update it tells me I've already have the latest version.
Latest version TT6: 6.010
Version on HTC P3300 is 6.020, which is 6.010 adjusted with the internal GPS feature
I have a HTC P3300 which came with the 6.020 however when hooked up to TT Home it advised me that there was an update. After i updated the vesrsion was 6.010.
Everything worked fine! I aclled Tom Tom US and they did not know that the latest version was. So what i did is a master reset and reverted to the factory setting to reapply the 6.020 since thyat one should be the latest version.
Cheers
TT6 should detect the internal GPS on the Orbit/3300/Artemis fine I know mine does, had the co-piolt got rid of it as it was crap and put TT6 on and works fine
Just need to work out how to load new voices onto it now
Kimbie
Simply use TT Home to load voices onto the card.
does the 6.020 version also add the ability to use the quick GPS function of the artemis which is greyed out on the 6.010 version?
I'm running a back-up version of 6.010 and it seems to work fine, although it does take ages to get a fix.

I think there is a bit of confusion on my part and maybe others it seems tomtom has a plugin similar or the same as "HTC QuickGPS" which essentially does the same thing when in TOMTOM, I cannot find it in my version? links below explains TOMTOM version.
‘QuickGPSfix’ http://www.tomtom.com/plus/service.php?ID=18&Language=1
I think but am not sure the "HTC QuickGPS" should help TT6 and other gps apps find the satellites quicker as long as the PDA is docked with activesync regularly or downloaded via GPRS? If I am wrong please let me know.
Cheers
Hi NickR,
Mine works exactly as you explained. I used the tweak so i could drain the battery while plugged in without charging. I have been told i should drain the battery every once in a while. I am in the basement phone is on with wifi and gps working flawless.

I'm confused about your statement because first you claim it works but then you ask where is it located. So how do you know it works if you don't know where to activate/deactivate it?
@NickR: what you say is true and seems to be designed only for non PDA/phone devices.
The quickGPS installed in my HTC-P3300 fine.
The one in TT i cannot find!
The "quick gps fix" in tt can be found when selecting "TTPlus Services - Download more" options. You'll have to have the device connected via AS or EDGE/GPRS/UMTS.
Appologies dicin, I didn't mean to be rude. I don't have an Artemis and would like to know what does the "quick gps" installed on your device do. Does it have the same function as posted by NickR (http://www.tomtom.com/plus/service.php?ID=18&Language=1)?
Hi there,
Is there a way i can test if the gps chipset on my new p3300 is working properly?. I installed Iguidance but it will never get a fix although it does auto detect the gps port . I ran quickgps over wifi and despite downloading the latest fixes, Iguidance fails to get a fix
I am looking for any freeware appz which can just tap into the gps receiver and start spitting some data so i can be assured its not the gps module but Iguidance. Something like a gps viewer which displays the # of sats, lat n longitudes etc.
I appreciate any help I can get as I have only 2 more days before i can get this device exchanged.
Thanks in advance!~
btw, I am running Wm6 using B&b3.7 rom
Search on google for visualgpsce.
Bye
Grab a copy of the TT GPS Driver 2,06 from here http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=13 install that as it is an application in its own right.
Fire up the application on the Artemis and select the GPS tab in the application Use the following Settings:
Top drop down box "NMEA 0183v2 9600"
Second drop box "COM4"
Make sure the two sliders in the middle of the screen are to the right, then check the grey/ blue box top left, return to the "Status" tab and take the unit outside, you should see some activity and get a position fix after a couple of mins - Mike
Thank you guys so much..
After running the app, i got 12 sats in view and 7 fix. So w00t, the gps chip is working.
Now to figure out whats wrong with iguidance
Thanks again...
Not too sure about that app as I have not tried it (yet) - does the GPS hardware actually start when you fire up the application - if you can configure it to use COM4, Baud 9600 do so and try it again. The indication the GPS has fired up is down to the LEDs on the device, once started it will flash orange to signify its in use. If this doesn't happen you might need to look into using Fransons GPS Gate to present a virtual GPS port to the application - Mike
Well, I do see the orange light blinking when Iguidance is running but still sees no sat's.
I even upgraded to V3.01 and same issue. Also tried Franson gate app and no luck.
I could try tomtom since that appz does see the sats and gets a fix ( tried it using a free US map) but i am having trouble loading the N.A+canada map since i don't have the cab file for it just the extracted map files which Tomtom HOME will refuse to load unless its a cab file i believe
Off to google to hunt on instructions on how to make cab files...
last time i checked iguidance v3 wasn't compatible with the artemis.
Oh ic. I did come across a couple of posts reflecting the same .
Oh well..I loved the map loader feature of Iguidance. Sad to see its gone in the upcoming V4.
Anyways I got tomtom running.. i was suppose to have the maps in the root folder of the memory card not in a sub-folder !
Hi,
Was just wondering if anyone had a recomendation for a good GPS porgram? I'm looking for good mapping rather than road directions. Google Maps Mobile is great, but not so good when I'm out of range from a cell tower...
Thanks for your help

GPS program
TomTom 6 with 6.75 map ( the best, for me)
Navigon 6 ( nice but slower with elf)
Route 66 gps (
Thanks for the sugestions giovanniriccio, but those are all road directions programs, and I don't drive (yet, sadly). Looking for something I can use when out walking / on my bike.
Cheers
How about OziExplorer?
http://www.oziexplorer.com/
Is that what you're looking for? You will need to supply your own (scanned or digital) maps, but if you have those (or find it in gps-forums): it worked great on my HTC Magician. Haven't installed it to my touch yet, though, so I can't promise it will work, and if you don't have the maps in the right format, it can be a bit of a pain in the ass to get it all right.

I myself use Navigon more so then TOM TOM (I have both installed) only because I like the interface a bit better... and waiting an additional 3 seconds to have the program load or another 3 for a route to load in comparision to Tom Tom isn't that big of a deal for me.
However, that said. TomTom 6 and Navigon both give you the option to choose your method of transport, So you can choose walking route or biking instead of driving a car.
Navigon has these options: Fast Car, Standard Car, Slow Car, Motorbike, Lorry, Bicycle, Pedestrian. Now as far as I know it doesnt have walking paths programmed into it it just uses these settings to give you an estimate on how long till you reach your destination.
Same for Tomtom however it's options are as follows; Fastest Routes, Shortest Routes, Walking Routes, and Bicycle routes. I've never used any of these features so now sure how they really work BUT they are there.
Like I was saying about the load up time between the two, depending on what type of Touch you have will likely make a difference because honestly I've barely noticed a difference as far as route loading times but that could be because I have the touch enhanced so it runs fairly fast.
Hope this helps!
Memory-Map
Memory map is brilliant for mountian biking and walking.
http://www.memory-map.com/
30 day trial available and good quality maps (UK, France) available or you can import. Runs on PC and PPC so you can dowload and analyse your routes
I'd second Memory Maps, it has worked brillantly for me on a number of WM devices including the touch. It can be a bit pricey for maps, but Memory maps navigator is free and can import and calibrate scanned maps.
Thank you
Lots of options to play with over the Christams holidays!

Hey Guys...
Heres a link to the Cube Icons thread I made. If you go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351551&page=4
you'll find not only icons for the aplauncher for TomTom and Navigon but I also made some Icons for the mediahub panel of the cube as well.
Anyone know how to fix the "No maps found!" TomTom error? I'm currently using TomTom 6.203 (7220) with USA/Canada maps version 6.75 (1409). I have the maps folder in my microSD card.
No Maps Found
I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, dos any body know how to fix, you cannot get into settings to look for maps, it just takes you to tomtom download page
Not sure if this will help but I had had the problem on my treo before and I just simply took the map off and brought it back onto the SD card.
I'm also not sure if the placement of the map has anything to do with it but I had originally had it in the TOMTOM folder. When I moved it to the root menu of the SD card it read the map fine.
Right now I'm running Tomtom 6.010 (7720) and my map is "USA and Canada 675_1409'
I found the solution in another thread from kunz:
Disable Bluetooth Explorer from Settings -> Connections -> Bluetooth -> Bluetooth FTP
It causes TomTom to think that the bluetooth folder is your storage card and tries to load map from there. Disabling it should do the trick.

This worked out instantly for me.
You guys may also want to try Navigon Navigator for your phone. I have the latest version 6.2 and it runs super smooth has a way nicer interface then tom tom and has voice control so you can actually just press a button on the phone and say "navigate home" and the program does the route and stuff for you. Its a great feature to use instead of flipping through your favorites or something like that.
I have both tomtom and Navigon on my touch. I use Navigon more however I have noticed that they both sometimes find different routes. On that occasion I noticed tomtoms routes are a little quicker (by say a few minutes... but that could simply be because it calculates the estimated time a bit different) Either way.. something to check out at least. Look up some information on the program and check out screen shots of it. You can tell right away the interface and maps themselves look alot nicer then tomtoms. Both seem to be about the same as far as up to date maps go.
Question!
OK Guys, please excuse my noob question, but as far as I know the Touch does not have GPS. Do you use external Bluetooth GPS devices or how do you use all these apps?

Yes, bluetooth gps. I use GlobalSat BT-359, and I'd like to buy one day "Freedom Keychain GPS SiRF III Receiver" or maybe the small Holux GPS Receiver.
As for software doing maps, there are plenty. I know of: googlemaps, gpstuner, gloposis and sometimes the necessary companion 'gpsgate'. Recently gpstuner got google maps support built in, but I haven't tried (previously one had to build maps oneself for gpstuner).
With a bluetooth gps would it work with garmin maps topo or road maps?
I use GlobalSat BT-359, with Windows Live, along with Microsoft Voice Command 6.1, you can actually tell it where you want to go. The mapping software works fine. The only occasional problem I have, and maybe someone has an answer for this, is it takes a while (5 minutes sometimes), to sync with the GPS "puck". Sometimes closing and reopening the app. several times helps it along. Once in a rare while it will lose the port, as well. I am using port 1. Does anyone have a solution to this? Otherwise, it works great when everything is sync'd.
thanks. Gary
Why not try the "Igo My way 2006 plus"
Igo My way 2006 plus works great with my Touch and it alerts me on approaching the speed cameras. You should try it out. The maps are much more detailed then on other Gps software i used. If you want to use it and you don't find a trial, plz pm me and i will help.
p.s. you have to own a Bt. Gps receiver.

Hello,
I'm struggling with the installation of tomtom 6 on the blackstone . After loading all the maps and software to the phone, and installing the ttn.cab file on the device, the setting windows (for choosing the map, the language, and retrieving the activation code) appears only on a 1/3 of the screen making it impossible to read the activation code. The settings windows also seems to be repeated 3 times on this 1/3 screen.
I have looked evrywhere on xda and other websites without finding a answeer/solution to this problem. As anyone experience the same problem ? Can anyone help me with this issue ?

Hello quite simply TomTom 6 does not work, how ever I am running tomtom navigator 7 and its works like a charm including going from portrait to landscape. I also found Copilot 6 that came with my p3300 (Orbit) works a treat. As does GARMIN XT but I didn’t like as my bike satnav system Garmin Zumo and I don’t like that either it becomes clear why I don’t like that system if you use both tomtom and garmin
Where did you got tomtom 7 ? On the tomtom website they're still selling tomtom 6.
tomtom navigator

TomTom 6 Working for me
I had the same problem as the original poster, TomTom opens in the top third and is all messed up and unreadable.
Then I found and have installed WVGAFIX3 (search for it) and my TomTom Navigator 6 is working fine, although only on about 2 thirds of the screen, still pretty big.
OEM version of TomTom 6.033 (8358, included in official WM6.1 Polaris ROM upgrade) works with no problems in HD. No registery tricks were needed, just copy and paste \TomTom folder. It rotates fine with the Gyrator2.
