Hi,

I have done that a number of times in setting my own devices and my friend's ones.

Use the step-by-step here:

I can't remember the exact cause, but I go back to this thread and work it from there on.

HiH,

Joe

[FOZZER]

I used the 5.21 upgrade on the old rom and that was ok worked a treat frist time but now it just hangs on start up :evil:

[FOZZER]

Anyone ????

[joebongo]

Did you do the reg edit and the GPS control panel part?

And are all the same files on the miniSD card? My initial thought is that it's something to do with this. Like the whole damn lot, even though you can see half of them are not really needed, like the palm ones and licences, text files etc.?

Joe

I'm kicking myself as I only had this two weeks ago on a universal....

[FOZZER]

Yep everthing on the SD card is the same.
I had the old rom and TT5 worked a treat without the GPS reg hack
I hard resetted my phone updated the rom
Paired the GPS reciever the same as i did before ran the TT 5.21 same as before and nothing Ahhhhhh !!!! :evil:
E mailed tomtom support and got the reply
" If you are using the 5.21 upgrade for WM5 then tomtom should install and work this may be a hardware issue"
No sh!t sherlock !!!!

[joebongo]

Ok, a bit naughty, but there's a version linked to here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=34504&highlight=tomtom+crash

Try that one and see if it works.

Man this is buggin the shit out of me :)

Joe

[FOZZER]

Now the plot thickens

Here's what's been done so far

1 hard reset
2 mini sd card cleared TT 5 map re installed this has been tried in a wizard with the old rom and it works so it's not a card or map issue.
3 no apps installed in the phone
4 TT 5 installed on the phone
5 GPS reciever paired with phone

Start TT5 which starts up
Select which country (English UK) ok
Select left or right handed ok
Select miles or kilometers ok
Select clock format. Slight hang but ok
Select which voice that's it the program just hangs and goes no further

Joe it really bugging the shit of me as well :twisted:

[joebongo]

Ok, I had this bit on the Wizard Friday evening!!

What it was I think, was I had copied over the map files (the big cline etc.) and checked the currentmap.dat file's path in

\My Documents\tomtom

The bugger still didn't run. So, I went back to my original SD card, copied it all over (all the dross in the map folder I thought I didn't need) and this time it ran. It was something in the map folder on the card.

Joe

PS Sent u a PM

[jimmy_boy]

yo Fozzer

i have EXACTLY the same problem, did u fix it yet? its realy anoying me! crashing on the voice select screen after the re-install. please say u fixed it i cant be bothered reverting back to the old ROM.

[jimmy_boy]

i just figured out i dont have a my documents/tomtom directory can u post your "currentmap.dat"
thank you in advance

[joebongo]

Here ya go, and edit with notepad if your path is different.

Joe

[FOZZER]

Yep Ill try to post it later on
I dont want to revert back to the old rom too as i havent got it saved any where and i dont know how to pull the rom from another Wizard
Now this is really getting on my wick :evil: :evil:

[FOZZER]

Jo
what rom are you using ?
Have you got Tom Tom running ???

[joebongo]

Yes it works, and I am on t-mob vario:

Rom 1.6.2.4 wwe, 11/15/05
Radio 1.12.10
Protocol 4.0.13.23
Extrom 1.6.2.105

[jimmy_boy]

yes!! it works! ooo yeah!

thanks joe

all i had to do was put that file in my documents/tomtom and bingo!
goes past the voice select screen on onwards to tomtom!

phew what a load off my mind!
thanks again joe!

[joebongo]

Yer welcome m8, just got to get Fozzer sorted now.

Joe

[jimmy_boy]

im sure it'll be the same problem, i figured out that for some reason since i have file syncronization on my Activesync, my computer likes to delete the currentmap.dat, just turn the file sync off and voila currentmap remains and tomtom works

[FOZZER]

Jimmy

Glad it worked out in the end.

Joe

[bigmelon]

got it work at the end, it work as a charm. but the only thing i am surprise is why I must open my phone otherwise I can't use gps, it looks stupid. anyway very happy, wish everyone good luck, have fun.

[joebongo]

what do you mean bigmelon? i don't need to slide out the jeyboard to use it.

joe

[bigmelon]

I mean I must turn on the phone service, otherwise you can't use tomtom5, in tomtom5 it will display flight mode, any ideas, thanks.

[sundip]

i got everything working but its not finding the voices on the card, only if i copy to the fone which i dont want to do!?

[joebongo]

then i recommend only copying the voices you use ot the phone and save on memory.

joe

[rmg]

thanks guys you helped me fix the lockup problem as well :-) one question, where do you put the voice files by default? I dont have cab files for voices, only the raw data files...

[FOZZER]

if you have got the TT5 disk you can copy the voice cab files directly from there to your phone/sd card and then install them If not i can post or PM you the cab files

[dennis79]

thanks guys you helped me fix the lockup problem as well :-) one question, where do you put the voice files by default? I dont have cab files for voices, only the raw data files...

you should put the data##.vif and .chk in the following directory:

"my mobile device\tomtom\tomtom\data##.***" just make sure you got the right data ;)


Then I've got a question for my own:

I have done everything as posted before and my current map works just fine. BUT I have also installed other maps on my storage card. Problem is my TT only detects Benelux map and not major roads etc. Anyone any idea what I've done wrong?

[van_mierlo]

got it work at the end, it work as a charm. but the only thing i am surprise is why I must open my phone otherwise I can't use gps, it looks stupid. anyway very happy, wish everyone good luck, have fun.

Does anyone have an answer on how the phone can be off and bluetooth can be on for TomTom. My only way is to turn flightmode off and then on again without typing in my pin for the simcard.

[rmg]

Thansk FOZZER and Dennis,

I put the voice data files in a folder called voices in the root of main memory and they worked :-)

[DiiCE]

van_mierlo, thanks for your question!!

That's right, thanks for a question, not an answer. Because TomTom kept giving a "no gps device found" until i put a sim card in my phone.

Tried **everything** with cracks, hacks, un-simlock, un-romlock, etc. But all it was was a missing sim card and a misleading error message from tomtom....

(i'm sorry i can't answer your question though..)
