Hello,
I've just received my SPV M5000 and I'm loving it. However I do have a few niggles. Freezing, took ages to get skype to work, unable to install Tom Tom navigator 5.0.
I've heard that the imate Jasjar ROM is more reliable than Orange ROM.
Any information on the following questions would be much appreciated.
Does the imate ROM contain skype?
Where abouts can I locate the imate ROM?
How do install the ROM?
Can Tom Tom navigator run on the device?
Thanks in advance.
TomTom runs on the orange ROM. Its the installation that has problems, and that is to do with the installation package not liking WM5/Activesync 4
You can install TTN by copying over the 5 cab files manually and running them on the device, you will also want to find the 5.1 update cab.
If you do a search you will find the cab, and the information on this board. It took me 15 mins all in.
I know it doesn't answer your question, but might save you turning your phone into a brick!!
Also, are you on orange? If so, how the hell are you going to afford to use skype after the 3months 3g trial ends? :wink: :lol:
Thanks for that.
In response to your question. I won't really be using Skype over 3g. I will only use within Wireless Haotspots using WiFi.
As I am a complete thicky, would you be able to spoon feed me the installation of Tom Tom to my Universal. Where to install, what, etc and the upgrade?
Thanks in advance.
toptaggy,
I'm an irregular poster on here but found myself in the position of having a genuine registered copy of TomTom Navigator 5 and unable to use it on my M5000 having just upgraded from the M1000 and M2000.
Elsewhere on this forum, I found thie following which is a very helpful guide to installing TTN5 with Bluetooth GPS.
Hope it works for you too.
F
TomTom
There are 3 key steps in making TomTom 5 work on an i-mate JasJar with a Bluetooth GPS.
Many tips are scattered around in different Forums.
Here is a COMPLETE overview of what to do.
STEP 1 : INSTALL TOMTOM5
You do this by copying the CAB files from the CDROM (eg F:\PocketPC) to the JasJar and launch one by one from there with the explorer of the JasJar.
You can install voices the same manner by copying the CAB files to the Jasjar (eg from F:\Voice on the CDROM)
STEP 2 : UPGRADE TO V5.1
http://www.htcclub.net/storage/ppcupd510.rar
Extract and copy the files to a folder on the JasJar and install them from there.
STEP 3 : ACTIVATE THE GPS CONTROL PANEL
Fire up a registry editor (eg http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml )
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings
Delete the DWORD marked "hide"
Add a DWORD called "Group" and give it the value of "2" (dec)
The GPS panel will now show up in your connection settings.
STEP 4 : INSTALL TOMTOM5
1. Establish a bond with your GPS and select the checkbox for serial access.
2. In BT, select the OUTGOING port to 8.
3. In the GPS control panel, select the GPS program to 0 and make sure that the hardware one, is set to None.
4. Start TT5 and the GPS settings, select another bluetooth GPS, and you will see COM 0 free. Select COM 0 and close TT5.
5. At the GPS control panel again, now select COM 8 (before we set it up at 0).
6. At BT: select OUTGOING port to 0.
7. Back again to GPS control panel and select NONE.
8. Finally start TT5 and it should connect automatically. Wait for a couple of seconds and click the GPS settings and you should see it has connected.
Hi toptaggy
So far I was never happy with Orange ROMs. But I have a suggestion for you as long a realy good ROM is not avalable.
I installed the VGA tool. With this one the screen is much faster, specialy when turning the screen.
Than with the Total Commander CE the extended ROM is visible (just tip in the adress bar: Extended_ROM ). Here you can fist backup it and than remove unneccessary file as Orange ring tones etc. This will free up you some memory.
With this config my M5000 is working 50% faster as the standard out of the box.
A pitty is that the slider in the memory setting is missing as you had it in W2003 SE.
Cheers
What is the VGA tool and where can it be obtained from ???

Hi dfens
as all other do it xda ftp - universal folder, there I found it.
Sorry, I don't have the exact link as I'm on holiday.

If you look at the attached word document when Tomtom launches it sets the following registry keys
HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\ACTimeout to &FFFFFFFF and
HKCU\ControlPanel\Backlight\BatteryTimeout to &FFFFFFFF
when on my XDA2 they should be 300 and 600 respectively. When Tomtom exits these values are restored.
I have written a program that launches Tomtom, then after 7 seconds restores these registry values to their original values and viola the backlight is restored without the need for the user to have to adjust it manually.
Here is the code and I shall next day upload a cab file with more details and which can be installed. It is configurable and places a shortcut in your start menu.
Enjoy.
Great Job Sjubb
Now i can upgrade to WM 2005 again :wink:

The problem I seem to have is that Microsoft Compact Framework 2.0 (Beta2) redistrubatable will not install correctly. I've tried the one sjubb uploaded I've downloaded it from microsoft. What happens is everything seems to install ok (with both versions) but then when my XDA2 resets itself nothing! No program! and in add remove programs the tick box indicates that it's not been installed. Many thanks to sjubb for his help and Buzz for the OS.

Right guys,
A lot simpler now. No need for Microsoft Compact Framework 2.0, they should run straight away now (as most PDAs have version 1 installed) as I have made it compatible with version 1.0
Just download the attached files and follow the instructions in the word document.

OpenNETCF.zip
you will need to extract it in order to put on your device.
Just one slight hiccup...
Hi SJubb, Many thanks for your effort. Yet another masterpiece in the making!!
I followed your instructions (the latest one without the Framework 2) and.
It starts tomtom fine, but the light is still disabled. I am running Magneto (clearly..).
Many thanks for your effort. Really look forward to getting it working.
Works!!!
Sorry SJubb, I take it back. Restarted, repeated install, works like a charm!! Many thanks for such a great app, now all we need is Widcomm for Windows Mobile 5 and we're set!!
You, along with the rest of the gurus are what makes owning an XDAII such a pleasure. I only wish I had the skill to contribute to this endevour.
info
monster what version of windows 2005 are you on?
I have someone on 1.50f experiencing problems. I myself could not get it to work properly on that version.
cheers
Steve J
I have installed this, and it works. The only problem is, that everytime i run the program a dialogbox turns up saying: The maximum delay interval in order to turn the backlight on is 20 seconds. This is avoid hanging your xda2. It will be set to 7.5 seconds.
Is there a way to avoid this dialog box?
Apart from this it works perfect. Thank you for all your work.
regards
John
You need to adjust the interval as part of the shortcut. If you see the user guide it gives details.
If you don't want to do that go into file explorer, go to \windows\start menu\programs and delete the shortcut.
Then go back to the original patch file, rerun it and it will recreate the shortcut for you with a default of 7.5 seconds.
Please test and advise.
cheers
steve jubb
forgot!
Forogot to mention make sure the number you use for the interval is less than 20.
Hi
I have tried this several times now. but the dialog box still appears.
I need to tell you, taht when i press ok to the dialog box tomtom starts and backlight is turned on.
I just wantted to get rid of the dialog box.
my device is a spv M1000
and I use this rom:
WM2k5_1.50h_XDA2_HIMALAYA
I have opend the shortcut in notepad and it looks ok according to the install guide.

Hi
I've spent the past few days geeking with my MDA, using the wealth of info from this forum.
I tried the JasJar rom (too much [email protected]), and ended up with:
- XDA CE Rom (1.13.48 )
- Radio From O2 Rom (1.04.02)
- Minimal Stuff from XDA/MDA ext roms
Goal was to install with the least [email protected] possible.
Step 1 - Flashing The XDA Exec Roms
First flash with O2 XDA Rom, using the info available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32725
To sumarise the above...
- Get XDA rom from:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Shipped ROM/Xda_Exec_LaunchROM_v113139.exe
- Unpack the above using winrar.
- Plonk MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe in the folder where you unpacked the O2 rom (you can get this file from the ftp site, in the file: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar
You only need the one file!
- Disable activesync
- Put MDA in bootloader mode
- Connect to PC via USB, wait for hardware detection
- Run the file MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from the O2 Rom directory on the PC
- Wait ;-)
- Once it restarts, do the usual CE setup, but do not let the extended rom install (simply soft reset at the prompt). If you have gotten past this stage, just hard reset again, and do the soft reset at the correct point!
Step 2 - Installing Progs From Extended Rom
- You'll now have an MDA with the XDA CE and Radio roms installed. It will need the appropriate patches installing from the XDA and MDA extended roms.
- To start, DL both extended roms:
XDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/O2_XDA_Exec_Extended_ROM.zip
MDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/mda_pro_eng_uk_extrom.zip
- For info on what each of these roms contain, look at the following threads:
MDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32839
XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32527
- You dont need all that ****e, I installed the following:
XDA:
Signed_SSD_BTUR_Patch_For_BT_Cannot_Initial.sa.CAB (bluetooth patch)
MDA:
CAB-Customization-TMUK-Universal-01-03-04Aug05.CAB (Adds MMS Server Settings)
CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB (Adds MMS to outlook + installs some shortcuts which you can remove later)
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB (Enables Video Calling)
Signed_UNI_TMO_Connection_112100.CAB (Adds 'T-Mobile Internet' and 'T-Mobile Internet CS' for GPRS/3G connection)
Stage 3 - Cleanup
- The CAB CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB also installs a links. If you dont install the cab TMO_UK_UI_0727_signed.CAB then these will be dead llinks. The 'clearvue pdf' reader is a part of this cab (but if you install it, you'll get all the other sh1te it contains also. I was not interested in the PDF reader, so I just trashed the dead links.
- There are two dead links in Programs (they'll be obvous by their icons. I seem to remember them being 'clearvue PDF' and 'EmailWiz' In Explorer, browse to /windows/start menu/programs and trash them.
- Several shortcuts are installed in /windows/startup. Trash the elatepushservice (I dont know what this does, but I dont appear to be missing anything!), sddeamon (this causes the prompt 'view pics on card' when you insert a card containing jpgs from digicam etc). DONT trash 'poutlook' as otherwise the MMS folders wont appear in pocket outlook.
- Install Pocket Mechanic, and use it to ditch bad registy keys and cleanup the notification que.
- Could also install the ext rom unlocker & Total Commander so that you can shove only the cabs you want into the ext rom (or use the space for somet more useful) See Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33638 (Cheers Buzz!)
Registry Hacks
Goto: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry and pick some registry hacks to install. I did 'keys on today screen', 'disable start menu animation', 'change pocket ie', 'change fonts', 'change glyph cache' and 'change web hardware button' - to 'about:blank'
Goto:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33515 and make the suggested changes to the cache settings. I found that this did speed stuff up, but since its only cache settings, it will only speed up stuff the second time you try and do it!
Soft Reset
Install Your Progs
I installed
In Internal Mem
Resco Explorer (+regedit +ftp) to replace the MS sh1te
Resco Pic Viewer (to replace the MS App)
Pocket Informant (case the built in stuff is useless)
Resco Audio Recorder
Resco Pocket Radio
TCMP Media player
Net Remote (to control my HTPC)
SPB GPRS Monitor (from MDA CDROM)
Zimmermann Pocket Hosts (essential for VPN use)
Small menu (so I can ruddy well close open apps!)
IPConfig
Pocket Putty (SSH)
On CF Card
Total Commander (to get to the ext rom)
WiFiFoFum (for free email on the move ;-)
Pocket Mechanic
Concluding
Machine is now both fast, stable and not full of bloat-ware. Have 22MB free storage, and 27MB free program memory.
Main Issue left is the time that machine takes to respond to an incomming call when its switched off. On the original MDA rom, I had 4 rings before machine actually rang. Now I have about 2.5.
Time for sleep! I'll read through this tomorrow and correct any errors...
Nigel
One essential point.
According to the publisher, Pocket Mechanic should not be installed to the SD-card, especially if you intend using any of Pocket Mechanic's functions against the SD-card - could lead to corruption.
Personally, I've installed (and run) many of the applications you've listed as "Internal mem" direct to the SD-card without experiencing any problems.
Great bit of collating, does anyone know if the same can be performed on a M5000? Orange have a habit of needing things on there phone to work correctly. Also does anyone know what the following do on the M5000 ExtRom:
CAB-Customization-OrangeUK-Universal-01-05-15Aug05.CAB
CAB-Shortcut-Orange-19Aug05.CAB
cusTSK.exe
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB
Signed_DiscoButton8.sa.CAB
Signed_Orange_SuspendResume.sa.CAB
Signed_Orange_UAString.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_Conn.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_Customize.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_HomeScreenReg.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_SoundSetting_USSDAlarm.CAB
Signed_ORUK_Version.sa.CAB
Signed_pIE_Fav.sa.CAB
Signed_SSD_BTUR_Patch_For_BT_Cannot_Initial.sa.CAB
Signed_SSD_Shortcut_WWE.sa.CAB
Signed_SSD_WLanMgr_Orange_Icon_WWE.sa.CAB
Signed_UNI_pIE_View_Set.sa.CAB
UI_Orange_UK_0727.cab
UNI_BrowserPerformance.sa.CAB
UNI_Orange_2G3G_icon.sa.CAB
Would be a great help if someone did or could find out as I could then cherry pick what to install. I can take a guess at a few of them but I would like to be sure
Thanks
Hi
Aye, I have noticed oddities with pocket mechanic on SD card, but only when doing SD card benchmark, defrag etc.
I installed to internal mem cause its faster than SD card rather than any other reason, but I found issues with some resco apps running on the SD card also - specifically resco upgrade failed (could not install downloaded upgrade)

I can understand Pocket Mechanic objecting when you defrag/benchmark the medium it itself is running from.
Haven't had any problems with Resco, but haven't tried the update facility.

Hi,
I am gathering the files to perform the upgrade as detailed in this thread, however I can't seem to find JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar.
Is there a better one to use now ? or should I keep searching for JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar ?
In fact most of the links have moved ...

Can you dump your extended rom and post on the ftp site?
I've tried installing the french version, but the UI won't install. Most odd...
I can't find the ROMS
I keep getting :
File not found
You tried to access the address ftp://[email protected]/Universal/Extended ROMs/, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.
Can any one point me in the right direction ?
I have a T Mobile (UK) MDA PRO, the wifi connection lasts for about 3 seconds, then it keeps trying, but failing.
These are the ROMs I'm after :
XDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/O2_XDA_Exec_Extended_ROM.zip
MDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/mda_pro_eng_uk_extrom.zip
Thanks
Hi
Looks like someone has trashed the FTP site (again) all those roms have dissapeared. Hopefully they'll get restored... Did a backup exist??!
I'll search my laptop see if I have any of the missing roms
Nigel
Yup the FTP's missing practically every file...
I need the NO ID upgrade launcher file to flash my MDA Pro to XDA Exec please.
If anyone can upload it or send it me accross msn it'd be much appreciated

Where can we get the GPSinfo program for the WM6 roms?
Here you go...
Unzip the .exe and copy it to the Programs or StartMenu dir on your device

Thank you
Thank you
even for me doesn't work on p3600 the cab...
troubleshooting devices ...
hello, I need some info from the developer:
In the tab 'GPSinfo' I see on the top line 'Date' :
Is this calculated from the GPS signal or what?
My problem:
I can run GPSinfo on two identical devices, Pharos 600e, WM6.1
On the first one, it works OK and I get GPS lock, and the 'Date' field is updated with the current date
On the second, identical device, I can not get GPS lock, the 'Date' field shows a date in 2006 "2006/04/16"
On both devices the GPS driver seems to work, I see the GPS light blinking, and the NMEA data scrolling in the 'Setup' field of the program.
I suspect a (hardaware?software?) problem with the second device and I am trying to troubleshoot the issue..
Any advice?
Thanks in Advance !

I'm using my pda *only* with BT sync, a lot of BEAUTIFUL roms lack of this!
I've goggled about this and searched in registry to find the fix. I do not have much time to try this but may be only a trgistry fix, take a look at these links and compare 2 registry of 2 roms where on the 1 work.
I think the bug is in Bluetooth control panel applet which will not create registry entries in RasBook, and also in rom where Bt sync does not work there is no PPP via Bluetooth connection.
News:
20081012
- tested on a few roms the chanvi93 solution: this does not worked for me, nothing has changed, no "serial port" display on pairing bt device
20080928
- chanvi93 had posted a solution, I hope this will work, thank you!
--------------- OBSOLETE ------ look at chanvi93 post ----------------
20080925
I can confirm my last opinion: it's a XIP lack, no reg, no dll, no fix
because the XIP lack of "Bluetooth Device" extension.
Working 6.1 XIP are bundled here (tested):
- tnyynt 011
- karmba
- finixnover 3.6
Next weekend I will try to find XIP differences, thank you for wait
You can use RasTool.exe to see what ras devices have you got.
20080923
Done a lot of new test-mergin-building new roms, no good news:
- exchanging dll from a working rom to other via cab or ncb does not solve the bug
- merging registry does not solve the bug
* may be the XIP? may be the boot.rgu?
I have discovered what does not work on the wrong rom: it does not "have" the "Bluetooth Device" in RAS, this will abort creating the RasBook entry. If you can create via API the rasentry, this will NOT work! because the rom does not complain the Bluetooth gateway.
What can I do? I can say if we can find the fix, we will can build also a Activesync via TCP!! or vpn if you need. because it will be a rasentry, manually created.
What's next? I will try to make syncing using existing wifi connection.
20080922
I've done some test with and w/o BT sync... I've found interesting differences between 2 roms: Rasbook is not updated on w/O BT sync!
I've attached the missing registry entries, using this reg on the same pda but with the other rom is will "try" to popup the connection dialog... this may be a good starting point! because if I can understand how to write the right Rasbook entries I can write a program which fix this bad bug
--------------------- OBSOLETE end -----------------------------------
These are only my 2 cents, may be we can find the fix together
Tommorrow I will read some msdn documentation...
Good night people!
this will be very appreciated, THANK YOU for what you are doing, your topbar app is really wonderfull, i know that you'll solve this problem too
I was going to open a post too because with two roms I've tried (ervius and elegance) I can't activesync with bluetooth. I'm not so expert as you but what I've seen is this. With a device that can sync with bluetooth when the pda has found the pc with activesync it checks the serial port and see that there's AS on that port. You can clearly see it because the AS icon get green and start rotating. While with a pda that doesn't connect the pda only see that there's a serial port connection available but doesn't try to connect to it to check what's connected there so it doesn't find AS and can't give it as a service.
I tried all the different bluetooth stack (toshiba, widcomm, bluesoleil and microsoft) and spent a lot of time on that but found that the problem is rom related as you say.
If you have any idea on how th solve this issue I'd be glad to help.
Oh and I'm Italian too so if you want you can PM me in Italian!

I've done some test with and w/o BT sync... I've found interesting differences between 2 roms: Rasbook is not updated on w/O BT sync!
I've attached the missing registry entries, using this reg on the same pda but with the other rom is will "try" to popup the connection dialog... this may be a good starting point! because if I can understand how to write the right Rasbook entries I can write a program which fix this bad bug
These are only my 2 cents, may be we can find the fix together

Bluetooth system WM 6.1 for ActiveSync
I am a new cooker of French’s Rom and I saw many subjects treating the problem of ActiveSync by Bluetooth, I found recently a BT system of the build 19217 which has this function and I port it on 2 SYS: 20275 and 20755 ( in development with Home UI ++) and in my big surprise that works. You can add an other XIP , it work also .
BT system link : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OBH1TV0J
SYS 20275 040C (French) language :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=J76YTT20
You can try these 2 Roms before to cook if you want but its are in French language :
My Manila2D Rom with Xip 19971 and Sys 20275 : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZPYG4L4O
After the first reboot just install youtubeplayer.cab in the boot folder and active FtouchFlo in Démarrer_Programmes_Outils ; you have an full Manila2D Rom .
My recently Lite Rom with Xip + Sys 20755 : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K98KLYTA
For the others Rom users , i had created a small soft , install it in Main Memory ;
In last step of the sponsoring of the BT, type on "Advanced" then about " Serial port", a new page will open, click " Serial port" and "ActiveSync" then "OK".
Open Activsync and in menu choose in "Menu" Bluetooth connection ".
Excuse me for my poor English .
YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!!
I installed the cab you just placed here and now everything works fine and flawlessly!
I have no words to thank you!!!!
If you are a beginner cooker well I must admit you are really good!
Thanks again
ASync BT
I've tryed on 5.22222 Ervius Rom but it doesn't work. I don't see any com port in the menu "advanced" when i want to create a bt connection
After Pin code 0000 on PPc and PC , left softkey is :"Done" ; right softkey is : "Advanced" , click on advanced , on the next page click in the case "Serial Port" then "Save" , a new page will open and click on the case "Serial Port and "ActivSync" .
MMMMM unfortunately it did not worked for me. It displayed AS icon, but never connected.
I HAVE my previous computer BT pairing showing ActiveSync as an option (selected and working), I've had my actual computer with ActiveSync, ¡and Synced!
But suddenly ActiveSync dissapeared from my current laptop settings, and Active Sync option has neven been shown again, no way to link via Serial Port or the utility in this thread.
NO ACTIVE SYNC PROFILE EVER SHOWN AS AN OPTION. (without patch I mean)
Any idea on how to make it back AND WORK?

- tested on a few roms the chanvi93 solution: this does not worked for me, nothing has changed, no "serial port" display on pairing bt device

My BTTools work only if you have "serial port" pairing , no solution without it, the BT system of the Rom is incomplete.

Noted, Thanks.
BTW it "returned" after changing some settings in AS COM Ports without "serial" port pairing, but I'm unable to fully explain the thing. Just be sure your "Allow connecting one of the following: COM X" in your PC Active Sync connections Settings is set to COM 7
Hope it helps, a really confusing and not well documented issue.

Sorry for my english...
Hi m8,
I know this will not help you much. I have the same unit but with mio maps and trying to install tomtom 7 on it but whit no luck. Any chance you could explain tome how you got working? or made a copy of your SD car and upload. I'm so frustrated with it, spend almost 3 days and no luck.
Thanks for the help and SORRY I can't help you.
Cheers

Just unrar and copy that to sd card and choose tomtom navigator.exe in gps path. This tomtom is with polish language but you can change that in menu. You need maps 8 with 22 meta or 7 maps for this tt and activate with tt8_keygen2.exe for 8 maps and tt7_keygen.exe for 7 maps.
Sorry for my english...
You can try http://rapidshare.com/users/M9JTJL i think you can choose language with this one...
Problem solve
Hi yonasz,
I was able to fix the problem, but thanks for the upload.
This is what I have done:
I run a little scrip (TT7 Navigator.mscr) that will pop up the power settings window before TomTom run. This will keep you the chance to change the " Switch State to user idle " from 1 minute to never. You must be quick as it will stay open for about 5 to 10 sec. only.
To run this script you need a few files in your TomTom directory. I have create a TT7WinCE.rar with all this files. Ones you done you just remove only the "TT7 Navigator.exe" and the "TT7 Navigator.mscr" everything else leaved in there.
One more thing you need to edit the "TT7 Navigator.mscr" and point to your TomTom Directory TomTom Navigator.exe, use notepad for it. Here is how my looks:
Errorlevel ("off")
Run( "ctlpnl.exe", "cplmain.cpl,5,1" )
WaitFor( "Power Properties", 5 )
SendOK( "Power Properties" )
RunWait ("\SDMMC\TomTom\TomTom Navigator.exe")
Exit
Here the link to the files: http://rapidshare.com/files/174215677/TT7WinCE.rar
If you need any help let me know, I glad to help out.
Cheers

I have my own script for tt7
RegWriteDword ("HKLM", "System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\UserIdle","Default",0)
#start TT
Run("\SDMMC\Navigator\TomTom Navigator.exe")
I run tt7 from tt-run.exe from gps menu (gps ,music etc). You have to change path in TT-Run.mscr to your Tomtom Navigator.exe if you dont have it like that:
\SDMMC\Navigator\TomTom Navigator.exe

I just click on gps icon in menu and wait 5 sec and tomtom is ready to use.
