[31.07.2009] TMC now working without external Hardware!!!

Hi,
Tmc work on Touch HD with a little tool (attached here).
TMC developers thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497977
beemers TMC thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512630
Load and install the two attached cab files, then:
start HyperGPS
select a free Com Port for TMC
go to menu > Test and search TMC with the arrows
message RTTMC in receive windows means TMC available (Pic 4)
if TMC found, close test windows with OK
leave HyperGPS in the background and start iGO
go to settings > TMC
search a TMC broadcaster
What is new in Beta 8:
-Full GNS protocol support. Tested under iGO and Navigon
GNS needs TMC+GPS option to be selected althought if it is not, HyperGPS will send fake GPS sentences.
-Less CPU consumption and lower memory footprint
-Optimized test program: Now RSSI is correctly shown under Royaltek mode, unused buttons are hidden under GNS mode and all the behaviour has been polished.
-RDS and TMC indicator in test program.
-Log mode redesigned to make more useful and readable logs.
-Removed fake RDS message under Royaltek mode. Not necessary with correct timmings.
-Soved an issue with block ratio not always sent.
my iGO settings in system.ini:
[tmc]
saved_config_available="0"
saved_config_classname="NMEA_GPSTMC_ROYALTEK"
saved_config_portname="COM"
saved_config_port="9"
saved_last_tuning_mode="0"
auto_tuning="0"
saved_last_frequency="1047"

Special thanks to beemerTPPC and all TMC developers.

You guys are incredible, and xda-dev is an amazing forum!!!!!!!
When, even iGO responsibles of the support section strictly answer that the HD isn't able to provide a TMC function with its radio receiver, you still believe that it's possible, give yourselves the means to make it happen, and success!!!!
BRAVO!!!
...'ll test this soon

it doesnt work on my hd....
tested all the com ports but no way.... it says it cannot open com port....
I have installed both the files, any help ???

TMC found in iGo, but no TMC-stations can be found in Sweden so far...

Does this work in the UK with iGO8? Reason why i ask that TMC is found in iGO8 but no TMC stations found. I have the headset plugged in and it's scanned all FM radio frequencies (testing.... no TMC signal found). The funny thing is, on the main screen where the TMC icon is, i have a yellow envelope. Clicking the car icon, then the car icon in a triangle, it takes me to a section called "Traffic Alerts" where 2 events are listed for roadworks. (1. A3211 westminster bridge - tower bridge & 2. A23 thorton - heath purley). So it must have picked up a signal at some point. Any help please ?

starbase64,
thanks a lot. I just follow in last two weeks all efforts (thanks to flywhc and other team) to obtain TMC function avalaible on htc devices. In my case I have a touch HD. Now I just installed u sw, and config and TMC signal is OK. Now remain only to test on the road...
Thanks again. I hope to give u feedback asap.

It worked once and then it broke.
It says it cant load the driver so i uninstalled,re installed beemercert.cab and then tried to reinstall the app but now it say it can't as it doesn't have permission.

WOW! This is so good. HTC dvices always have hidden options. The only bad thing is missing tmc services in my coutry, macedonia

Same problem here, worked once, and then after softreset cannot open com port anymore.

I know,gutted or what.
I'm just pondering a hard reset,would rather not but i really want this working.
EDIT: I might wait a while till my next Dutty rom,will probably be soon,lol.

same here aswell using dutty`s v3.3XT

Gotta be realistic, while its nice to have, this is "only" OpenTMC, in Germany known to be around 20-40 minutes behind real traffic situation. This is not TMCPro with realtime traffic data through road sensors.
But indeed it is fantastic for the masterminds behind this activation to have achieved this. Respect.

Same here, using dutty's 3.3. I downloaded the setup files from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3730090#post3730090 (page 35) and reinstalled and all working again.
Also, anyone know what frequency UK TMC is broadcast on?

Yes, it does.

works nice with my blackstone and tmc is found here in NRW.
but
after close/restart it still works due to the driver is still loaded but as soon as its beeing unloaded for the first time I get the same error that driver cannot be loaded again - check COM port or install certs. even after softreset and reinstalling certs it doesnt work until i replace gfmapi.dll in \windows

TomTom - What Version??

Hi..
I have tried to find the answer here at XDA, but i'm still confused...
Which TomTom version is the right one for the Black Stone??
Is the VGA or the QVGA for the Black Stone??
"Huhh, there are noe stupid questions, only stupid answers" ;-)

Stupid Answer: try looking at the 'TomTom on HD' topic on here

Thnx, but i have checked out that post. And i have figured out that the VGA-version should run on the HD.... BUT, when i installed it, the HD nagged about some Low Memory issue.... Therefore this stupid question....

That's odd, because I use tomtom v. 7.450 (9028) and works fine. But personally, forget silly tomtom and try IGO8. Believe me, you'll see the BIG difference.

IGO8 was born for blackstone, except of the sys.txt, but this is only small inconvenience from the beginning .

I have nstalled version TT_Nav_7.450.9028_repack3-qvga-black, previously working on Kaiser. On blackstone working fine

Hi
What version would work?
I tried IGO_8_v8.3.2.79297.
I was able to select lanq. and voices, but IGO stopped when trying to load the usual "Warning bla bla" (you know this warning any GPS need to show you the first time you use it).
Tried to reboot a few times. Same just made my HD veeeeeery slow so I had to restore it!
Do I need to do something with the sys.txt?
Mittaa

Tt 7.450.9028
7.450.9028 works perfectly (just with small fonts and POI icons).
I still have the issue of GPS dropping signal, but this is seems to be not related to the application used

I am using 7.918.9193 QVGA.cab with map UK v845.2667 on my HD and it runs VERY fast (make sure you are not showing too many POI's you dont need). I have not modified any settings or files for it to work and it displays perfectly and runs fine.
I have it installed to the mem card and I have never had any troubles about low memory.
As for IGo, I am using 8.3.2.97313 and its fast and beautiful, with alot more features than TomTom but I only really use it for the tracking feature and to re trace your tracked route. I used it (well it was MioMap then) to go from one side of Bulgeria to the other via taxi (with tracker on) and then hired a car for the trip back and re traced the route.
The sys.txt was a nightmare to get working but after lots of playing (refused to read people instructions, silly me) I got it working at full RES.
Both amazing but I still use TomTom more

Look in many of the threads already here. In general, you can say that all the official PDA releases work. These are 8.3.2.64029, 87762 and 97313. (Maybe more). With these versions a very basic sys.txt (as supplied with these versions) will work, as long as you add:
[device]
sdcard_dsk_num=7
(It took me three days to find this out...)

I had problems getting mine to work also. All I did was a fresh install, nothing edited in sys.exe, but I replaced data.zip with a newer version and it seems to be working fine!

I am ruining 8.3.2.93122 and it runs just fine.

Just to confirm it runs ok with version 8.3.2.1972 on the TP2 with these settings in sys.txt
[interface]
show_exit=1
[rawdisplay]
screen_x=480
screen_y=800
class="portrait"

In fact, what does it mean ?

I guess it's giving iGO the correct location of the sdcard i.e. disk number 7.
(I'm also guessing) The other 6 disks will be internal storage/ROM/backup ROM/etc.

ok, but it´s strange as App looks for "Storage card"
Code:
[folders]
App="[i]Storage card[/i]/iGo8"
... it´s just to understand ...

Whatever I install, I keep getting "Initialization error: no language files were found"
any help ?

do you have insert(copied) a Lang_YourLanguage.zip
you will find this on
-iGO
-CONTENT
-LANG

Aight, so I fixed all these problems and the program works great with all maps etc.
but it doesnt know how to determine where I am..
I'm telling it to take me to some place, and it creates a way like I'm in Jerusalem, while im not there xD...

IGO8 dont find my internal GPS???
Hi,
the programm and the maps work fine on my TP2 but he always shows me:
no GPSdriver found!
Igo dont find my internal GPS, any ideas???
thx

look in the settings
Port 4
Baudrate 57600
Change in the registry
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\
GPS IntermediateDriver\Drivers\GPSOneDevice\
PollInterval = 100
and delete these (GPSLogFile.txt+
GPSLogFileBack.txt) files you will find in the \Windows\ folder
take a softreset, then run QuickGPS or if you have time
without QuickGPS...
greetz

Schnalla,
What regional settings are you using?
For me strangly enough I found that when my local are set to anyting other then English iGo doesn't find the GPS receiver.
So try changing local to English UK or the like (might need a restart).
Then go to iGo GPS settings and run the automatic scan for GPS device.
It worked for me.
Once the GPS receiver is found you can change the Regional settings back to whatever you had before.

IGO8 Problem
Dear all,
I've got a IGO8 problem too. I've got the same version as up here. (The last version with a working TTS)
When i've touch flo 3d turned off (and using the basic windows mobile start screen) is IGO8 working perfect.
After turning on the touch flo 3d is igo working for a short time, but after an hour, when I try to start the application ==> I will get a error. I will get this message 1/2 second after pressing the igo icon and before I can see the loading screen.
the error is: "Failed to reserve virtual address space"
Can anybody help me to let it working with touch flo 3d? Or can somebody explain what the problem is?
Thanks in advance!

It must have a (Simple?) reason becouse it will work after a reset but not anymore after some time...
Thanks in advance!

Hi emanuel,
I've got version 8.3.2.93112. But also problems with TTS now. When I set the voice in IGO to a basic version (non TTS), close igo, reboot, start igo and set it to a TTS ==> it's working. but after shutting it down and restarting ==> TTS is not longer working. (And after a day, IGO cannot be started anymore and the device had to soft reset to let IGO run again...

Could this be modified to make Igo use the full screen on the Galaxy?

No, you can't unfotunately. On winmo devices you had to modify the data.zip or data.gro, but it doesn't work on Android version. But there is a way to do it. Nav' N Go released a new data.gro that solves the problem. I've tryed it and worked great on mine. Unfortunatelly it's illegal to distribute it but a little bit of googleing or gpsunderground.com could help you.
Hope I was clear enough, and helpfull enough.

[Q] Navigation doesn't work on my device, please help.

Hello,
I'm a proud owner of the HTC HD Mini and its a great device but I brought it to use it as a navigation system, I've tried several navigation softwares but none of them seems to work. (Navigon, Tom Tom, Route66, CoPilot etc.)
It installs correctly but when I try to run the application it keeps loading and freezes after some time.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Thanks.

hi, i use Igo Primo and runs like a charm on hd mini (landscape only though ,for portrait it works Igo My way but primo looks better) you may find it using search function here or on Google ,you will find alot of updated maps too unlike some other softwers
here's a close link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=690448

use Sygic Mobile Maps 10
http://www.sygic.com/index.php/en/compatible-devices.html

Both of them ain't working for me, anyone else?

Try TomTom and use ttn7.917.9186_qvga_black_cuckoo_NOBT, works perfect. At the moment i use the new maps 865.

sygic works great for me dude...try to format ur device...i can upload if u want...

If you are fresh owner of the Mini i more then strongly recommend u to return it back to the seller w/o declaring any reason (works usualy within few days from buy date) .. the most important part is DONT TAKE ANOTHER ONE IN EXCHANGE take the money, since Mini is **** phone even with Navigation ... its a junk phone no matter what, trust me i unfortunately own one too.
Good luck

Can anyone help me please?

Hello bertobasten,
I use HD MINI - TOMTOM VERSION 7915 MAP 8520_2820 ITA, and IGO PRIMO 8.5.11.168090 - November 17, 2010 - resolution 480x320 - if you put the appropriate files and not part igo primo, the problem is that you attach the file sys.txt
