WM5 and ActiveSync 4 won't install TOMTOM5 - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Hi all
Having trouble installing Tomtom 5 on my SPV m2000. I have just upgaded to WM5 and activesync 4. Wen I run the installer for the TT5 application it errors and aborts . tried uninstalling Ativesync 4 including registry entries and tried reinstalling 3.8. Activesync doesn't detect my PDA now, I think I read somewhere that it relates to software in WM5 that requires activesync 4.
anybody any idea's how to get TT5 on my PDA without having to revert back to WM2002se?
:?

OK,OK! I know what ya gonna say! I have just found a string relating to the same prob and a resolution. orry for wasting ya time

Can't Install Software on XDA IIs

I'm posting this on behalf of a friend.
He's got an XDA IIs with no mods/upgrades done, and has Activesync installed (whichever version cam with the device). When connected he can sync and browse the device but can't install any software. Every time the install program tries to communicate with the device a window appears (tall thin window) then disappears immediately with no error.
This happens with everything he tries to install. We've tried removing and re-instaling activesync but it's made no difference.
Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?
Cheers,
Matt
Have you tried creating a new partnership with the device through activesync and hardresetting the device?
Does re-installing Activesync not create a new partnership anyway?
I think he's a bit dubious about hard-resetting it, but I'll mention it.
Could it be anything else?
I have this problem too. MDA III with imate 1.40rom and 1.12 radio. Reinstalled activesync and even reflashed rom but the add/remove window just flashes on screen for a second then disappears. I hope someone here knows how to fix this. I'ts been driving me nuts!
sorry but......bump!
Could it be Firewall problem?! Get off Internet connection, disable Firewall and connect...
Good luck (just saw the light today having simular problem)

ooh I have same problem the Programs wont get removed is just says ( the program is not completly removed) and the program wont get deleted????
any ideas???
Cab files!?
What about installing the programs by putting the *.cab files directly onto the BA and running them there?
Most installers will install the cabs to the Microsoft Activesync/App name, or Program Files/App Name folder if there is no PDA connected - ready to try installing next time! Just copy them and put them on manually.
Or you could try Universal Extractor to open the *.exe's and get to the cabs.
Not a solution, as such, I know but, it at least gets your apps onto the BA in question until you find the solution!!

TomTom on WM 6

Hi Guys,
Has anyone got TomTom 6 working with WM6?
My TomTom Home on my PC is telling me that my device is incompatible
Cheers.
Works fine for me.
Im using Tomtom v.6.0 on my TyTN, and it runs like a charm.
WM6, tt 6.03 And tthome working sweet as
You might need to kill active sync to persuade tth to see the device again, oh and make sure you have latest version of tthome, not at pc right now so I havent a clue what it is
TTv6.0 works fine for me too in my Trinity
Same here, no issues
same here no problems with tt 6.03 and ax3l wm6 rom
I had a problem with TomTom after installing WM6. TomTom home kept saying that it didn't recognize my Trinity as a TomTom device. It took a few reboots of my PC and it finally agreed to let me reinstall TomTom.
I have been trying to install TomTom on my Trinity too. I am using WM6 too and it says the cab installation was unsuccessful.
I don't know why, it finds my device perfectly and installs the cab but I get the same message everytime.
Edit: DarkJedi is the f'ing man! He told me to copy the cab to my storage card and run it from there and it worked.
Thanks Matterhorn. That sounds like the issue I have. I'll give that a go.
Cheers all.
Be careful which WM6 ROM you use- some of them change the Device Code, preventing TomTom activation, and if that happens, and you have used your spare activation on TTCode.com, you will need to persuade TomTom to issue a new code, which can take up to 2 week's , and needs a copy of the origiinal proof of purchase for the device.
Another problem is that if you have to follow that route, although you can revert the OS to a previously activated one if you find WM6 not to your liking, TomTom Home cannot be reverted, and you won't be able to use it.
I'm using the Mun-Rus TE ROM, and it doesn't change the Device Code, but another WM6 Test ROM I used did change the code.
Works fine on my Trinity only when .NET 2.0 was missing there where some bugs.
If the activation lags there are some workarounds on the NET
TOMTOM 6 WM6 installation problem
I have exactly the same problem with the same error message....
Does anybody have an idea?
How can I check if GPS is enabled ?
Thanks.
Hello,
I've got a problem with Tomtom since one week. It turns off without reason, after some minutes. And when I restart it, it had lost my destination... So strange, isn't it ?
Anybody with the same problem ?
Thanks in advance.

losing active sync connection just before updating

Newbie loses always the active sync connection just before updating its hermes from WM5 (OS 5.1.195 Build 14955.2.3.0) to the new WM6 (ENG Vers.). It's a MDA Vario II from T Mobile Germany (SIM unlocked!) and I have no clue what I am doing wrong - As soon as the progress bar starts to indicate the update my active sync connection goes down and of course I get the error message "failure connection".
Thx for any help! GeHu
I had the same exact problem. I can't pinpoint what exactly is going wrong (i just got my 8525 a few days ago, and decided to mess with it, so I'm a complete noob at this) but what I did was just use one of the repackaged versions. That did the trick for me D:
I am confused. If you mean you run a rom upgrade and then plug the phone in, then it is doing what it is supposed to do. You should fully sync your phone then run the rom upgrade. The upgrade will disconnect activesync and then put the phone into bootloader and run the upgrade.

It's an activesync problem. Either delete activesync and re-install it and then, try it again and it should work or try it on another computer

Also make sure you have installed HardSPL first.

ok people notice how gehu0003 states "SIM unlocked!"......thus he most probably has a different bootloader.......1.40.olipro im willing to bet.
gehu0003...please do the following:
update to HardSPL v7 : This will make sure your SPL is up to date.
then
go to THIS THREAD....and download the DOPOD WM6 ROM. Use this repackaged ROM since it has CustomRUU which will recognise your updated SPL version. Enjoy.
thank u guys. i am fine now with the new HardSPL.
hey guys,
i'm having problems with this too, it disconnects me while i try to update to the hardspl.
any ideas?
thanks
how it worked for me
i had the same problem, while flashing rom, just before entering bootloader mode with some rom's it would disconnect and drop the usb conection. to fix it, now i enter the bootloader manually : press and hold (on) and (ok) buttons and reset with the pen. it should enter bootloader mode and in my case it doesn't drop usb conection to PC and allow me to reflash
cheers

[Solved (quite)] Trouble syncing my PPC with ActiveSync over Bluetooth

Hi everyone!
I have already posted this thread on the Modaco forum but I'm still getting no answer. I'm posting it here. I know there are a few threads about ActiveSync problems but none of them solves my problem!
I'm using an Orange SPV M650 (French branded HTC P3300) for a few monthes now, and I've been successfully syncing it with ActiveSync over Bluetooth from the beginning. At this time, I had created a BT COM port with the Windows Bluetooth stack, configured ActiveSync v4.5 to authorize connections through that port ; then paired my PDAPhone to the computer and checked the "ActiveSync" option that was available in the services listing. I was then able to sync using the ActiveSync application on my PPC.
A few days ago I deleted the USB Bluetooth dongle on my laptop from the "Device manager", it's been installed back successfully on the next reboot BUT now I can't synchronize. The "ActiveSync" service no longer appears in the services list of my computer from the device's BT configuration tool. I only have "Serial port" showing.
Reinstalled ActiveSync twice, didn't changed anything.
What should I do?
Thank you!
(here are a few screenshots, French language used)
Up! Nobody's an idea?
i can only suggest something i do when i have similar problems:
1. uninstall everything involved
2. manually clean up all involved registry keys
sometimes, the remainders of not completely uninstalled programs can cause problems if you install them again.
i never ran into your specific problem, but trying this will at least make you forget your synch problem for the 60mins you are busy.
...and sometimes, above procedure even helps!
I had to reinstall from scratch Windows XP for other reasons and the thing is still not working! I really don't understand, I'm wondering if I'm not doing something wrong... How should I do?
Hey..
Hey found this manual for you..
http://www.htcwiki.com/page/activesync+via+bluetooth?t=anon
Thank you. It's exactly that way that I'm trying! The problem is at step 12, the only service available on my paired computer is a "Serial port", not ActiveSync. I double checked that ActiveSync was properly configured on the correct serial port and it is...
i had this problem with XP, i sorted it out, but cant remembe quite how i did it, i have a feeling it was to do with the COM ports that you use for blueooth. upgraded to Vista and no problems, my suggestion is to go to vista, its much better then XP and everything works.
I have hardware unsupported under Vista (pro-soundcard) and my computer is a little bit too old (512 MB of RAM are fine with XP, won't be with Vista). Anyway I'm okay with XP, I won't change my OS just for an ActiveSync problem.
Anyway I updated my Artemis with the B&B 3.7 WM6 ROM and now it works... Was a problem on the phone I guess.
Thank you for your help
