Compatible? TomTom 6 on Sprint HTC Touch Pro

---

1st post, newbie lurker.

I've been googling, searching all over cyber space for either a cab file, or something that will allow me to use my TomTom 6 (legit copy w/ serial #), that I purchased w/ my Treo 700p 3 yrs. ago, w/ my Sprint HTC Touch Pro.

Initial installation, I get the "This version of TomTom is not compatible w/ your phone" (something along those lines).

I've tried

-installing the latest TomTom 7 cab file w/ the TomTom 6 maps and voices, before I read that the TomTom 7 cab will not work w/ TomTom 6 maps
-installing the older version of the TomTom 7 files, though I read and know now that it won't work w/ my TomTom 6 maps
-tried installing the TomTom Nav. 7 cab file, to download the "free map" from the tom tom site, but I kept getting an "error page"
-tried using the TomTom 7 and just purchase the US maps, but tomtom doesn't have US maps available, only European from what I can recall

I've also read that other users w/ the HTC TP have successfully installed their TomTom6, are they using a more up to date version? Do I need to make another massive purchase w/ TomTom?

The box to my TomTom NaV. 6, says compatible w/ WinMobile and Palm OS.

but it is several years old.

TIA for any help and suggestions, and I honestly did do a search and read half way through the TomTom 7 Diamond thread, but wasn't able to find anything useful, other than the cab. files.

If my version is outdated, then is my only option to get a new one? Also, can someone point me the right direction as to where I can buy (legally, from TomTom or 3rd party vendor), the US maps to work w/ the TomTom Nav 7?

Thanks again,

I have a Fuze, but I have the same questions as you. I've tried installing Navigator 6 and I get an error message and installation is unsuccessful. I've installed Navigator 7 and I can't get it to recognize my v6.75 maps even though people have said these should be backwards compatible. I have downloaded and successfully installed the free city map (Los Angeles). I cannot find anywhere to legally purchase v7.xx North America maps; Tomtom is now selling v8.xx. Can anyone please confirm if Navigator 7 is compatible with 6.75 maps or not? Thanks.

I have tom tom 6 working just fine

I have tom tom 6 working just fine, originally from my 750.
Assuming you have tom tom home installed on your pc.
Copy all of of your tom tom data to the sd card.
Run the cab.
make sure you have your tt code handy.
start tom tom home, it will recognise your new device,( tom tom allow you a device change once every six months)
you will need to register a new account, from then on it just recognises everything.
