My TOMTOM navigator on Qtek 9090 is extremely slow in searching street or displaying MAP.
I've previously used it on an IPAQ2210 and it works really well.
Anyone experienced the same ?
bye
Manuel
Yeah a friend of mine has bought a QTEK9090 with the Rom version 1.22.?? and he is expriencing the same problem.
Switching from navigator to map view takes about 2 minutes.
His configuration is: TT3 Nav program and GPS driver installed in RAM and the maps are on a SD card.
We've tried several different SD cards but no luck.
I think personnaly the SD card interface is the bottle neck but haven't tried putting the map in RAM too.
This would only work for maps which are small enough to fit in memory.
Regards
Mark
Same problem for me, even worse, I simply cannot install it despite the fact I used the last updates released by TomTom.
It's not even a SD card problem since I have an 512mb Sandisk ultraII
So I'm planning to turn to Mobile Navigon 4 where there is any pb with the 9090....
i dont think it comes from the SD card, i m using Mobile navigator|4 from Navigon, my maps are stored on my SD card and it works at a very acceptable speed.
I s a bit longer to boot the software that is much bigger than TT (About 9 Mo) but once it s loaded it works quite well.

Does anyone know of a GPS SD Card which has memory as well as the GPS....???
I have found a GPS SD Card - but it doesn't have any memory which is quite useless if your trying to run a SatNav solution...
Look forward to any suggestions....??

why not get a bluetooth gps and that keeps the sd free
tomtom 3 runs on them reasonably well with bluetooth
pm me if u want recomendations etc

The benefit of SD GPS - is that the PDA can become a "Lone Worker" tracking device....
With a bluetooth device, the user would have to walk with TWO devices instead of 1.......therefore a lot easier a solution for users ------
We are bound to see the demise of Bluetooth GPS as the SD slot gets more and more useage....
Any further comments are always welcome....

Hi all, I use TomTom on my MDA Compact, data is stored on a Mini-SD card (with Adapter to normal SD card size). When I run TomTom I notice some "hangups" from time to time (every 10 seconds or so), the program hangs for about 1 second. After that, it runs again w/o problem until the next hangup.
My question now: Is the Mini-SD card the source of this problem, would a normal SD card be better (or quicker)?
Or is this a normal behavior for TomTom?
Greetings and TIA, Matthias
it might be the card or other problem caused by the pda,
mini sd is not worse than sd (unless poor quality)
tomtom should run fine, (unless other cause for problem)
My guess is that you need a faster card.
I followed the link from the HTC website for the discounteded version of the full tom tom 6 WE maps and software etc but when I got the software it appears only to be tom tom home and the maps voivces etc no actual application. The app doesn't appear on the available items to install but everything else is? I've hunted through the disk and tried to find the app but can't.
However TomTom now say the software is on the disk but the Orbit is not compatible, any ideas ? How has everyone else managed to install it?
It's really starting to annoy now I was quite happy to pay for this in preference to the copiolt I could have gotten for free...
I own a MDA Compact III including the TomTom DVD with the map of Western Europe. The application TT 6 itself is indeed not on the DVD. My package also contained a micro SD card, on which the application was installed.

Jamie, The HTC 3300 Taster comes with TT6 preloaded I think, which only gives you 1 city map of your choice, maybe the link you are talking about only adds the Full Maps? I think you need to ring TT Customer Services for them to clarify?
I will PM you
Cheers
Nick

Find that very hard to believe, to be honest. My P3300 works a treat and I'm quite sure the Orbit will too, but I'll know more after Christmas when I get back to work and start playing with the one in my desk drawer...
Don't believe everything the experts tell you... ;-)

Install Tom Tom 5
Hi i have just purschased a MDA Compact 3 and wondered if anybody could tell me how to install it through Active Sync. At the moment it just keeps aborting at set up with a Microsoft Problem (Debug / Don't Send). If not could some one please point in the direction of a decent thread to use.
Many thanks in advance
Cheers
Daddy
Install the files to the card using a card reader rather than Active Sync its more reliable and considerably faster - Mike

go to settings/connections then "USb to PC" . Untick the option (advanced functions..)
I've unticked the box but it still keeps coming up with the same error message. I've tried installing it straight to the micro sd card, but it's not recognising the voices or the map of Great Britain. Help Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers

Tomtom 6 MOBILE is only for Nokia/Symbian Phones.
The Version that you should install is Tomtom NAVIGATOR 6!
TomTom Mobile 6?
With version 6 of TomTom, the distinction between the Mobile and Navigator product line is gone. From version 6, the generic name for TomTom on any device apart from the One or Go is Navigator. Hope to have clarified this.
tomtom 6 on 02 orbit
hi all just to let you ALL KNOW THAT THE TOMTOM 6 NAVIGATOR WORKS FINE ON THE 02 ORBIT WITH NO PROBLEMS I HAVE A 2GB MICROSD CARD WITH TOTOM 6 NAVIGATOR ON IT
IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN GETTING TOMTOM 6 NAVIGATOR to work FOR THERE
02 ORBIT CAN EMAIL ME AT [email protected]

TomTom works fine
Hi all, i can confirm TomTom 6 is working flawless on Xda-Orbit. Straight forward installation (copy everything to card and restart the device) only had to select the COM Port from Settings>GPS.
Cheers,
It's a dream: an SDIO GPS with integrated slot where you can put a(n up to) 2GB MicroSD memory card.
http://www.spectec.com.tw/sdg810.htm
It's a dream because I read that it has drivers for Windows Mobile 2003 but I didn't find drivers for Windows Mobile 2005 to make it work on my HTC Universal.
I invite you to write to them that WE WANT drivers for Windows Mobile 2005!
Here is their email address: [email protected].
It sure looks great but unfortunately the SD slot for our Universal is located at the bottom.
Also, this device requires the slot to be SDIO capable but I doubt our Universal's slot is. I hope I am wrong though
News: Spected released drivers for WM2005!

I hope it too
Here is pic of Spectec mini GPS in Jasjar
http://www.geardiary.com/?p=1894
I very interested in it too, but from picture it seems to still protrude pretty considerably. Fear I might snap it. Found some on ebay for around $150, so might get one and see how I fair.
sdg 810
it does not function on jarjar or qtek 9000
somebody has you it in driver for the jarjar
ummm?
didnt think it did either. mobileplanet even specifically states it does not work with HTC PDA's. but wondered/assumed from picture in the link it was operational and not just visual. well, so much for that. probably was a bad idea anyhow. probably should go with BT GPS, but I hate idea of having so many things to charge....BT mono headphones, BT stereo headphones, BT gps, BT keyboard, and the PPC....be nice to have "BT charging technology"....wouldnt that be something.
navicon?
dunno if you guys already read about (navicon), just found out about it on couple posts from early last year. i gonna look into this as gps solution. anyhow, just wanted to share.
Tested this product, but it doesn't work on every PDA with SDIO slot and WM5.0 I tried it with.
Installed the driver, but both the GPS and the card slot refuse to do anything.
The MicroSD (tried several) won't show in the file system, as it prompts for formatting after inserting in the iPAQ hx4700. When I press OK, nothing happens and the card won't show up in the Explorer as well.
The GPS shows up in the GPS list in TomTom Navigator 5 and 6, but when I select it, the program keeps looking for a fix, without success, even after 1 hour.
I tried lots and lots of SDIO devices, but none of them seem to work. It might be a faulty sample I received from Spectec, but until that isn't sure, I say: damn what a 'pain product'.
It may be al late respond, but it works on my hx4700 as a GPS, installed with WM 6.1, only the card reader doesn't. Fast fix and with clear sky 10 satelites. It even receives indoor if you are close enough through a window.
Tomtom 6 has difficulties, but miomap 3.2, IGO 2008 work just fine.
You have to install GPS tweak first, to find the com port. It's com 6, bautrate 38400.
Swaped the SDIO for the Bluetooth model
Spectec was surprizingly helpful when I contacted them about the lack of compatibility with models the GSP SDIO was supposed to be compatible with. They gave me the Bluetooth version which worked with my ipaq 1910 and am now testing with my HTC universal. Theorectically it would work with any BT PDA even without a SD slot.... that is if you could figure out someway to power the thing.
I don't even have a Universal and even I know that it is SDIO compliant... :S
And now???
So, I've got here my NEW Qtek 9000 ready to swich from WM5 to WM6.1 ROM.
Is there anybody can say Spectec SDG-10 is finally WORKING now? (seeing satellites and reading maps on the enbedded microSD)
Spectec-sdg 813
I have a SPECTEC SDG-813 which I have tried with my Wizard (Cingular 8125) and a laptop. I have found that it does not work well with either device. It aquires satellites runs for about 30 seconds then locks up. Which than requires a reboot and repairing with BT.
So it has been very frustrating and SPECTEC support has been very poor. Their inital response to my request for help advised me how to set the device up under BT. I had to resend the message and point out to them that the device is setup and aquiring satellites and then locking up.
I have been waiting to see if there will be any further advice.
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 ?
satnav
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
sorry for the delay in this reply this is due that im now in canada for 3 months on my snowboarding holiday. as for navigator 7 lets say it found its way off the internet on to my computer torrentpond.com
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.
