Tomtom loading with each soft resert? - P3300, MDA Compact III General

Does anyone know how to stop Tomtom from starting up after each soft reset?

TomTom Rebooting after reset....
HI!
Had the same problem on my xda mini-s.
Have a look on the sd card you should find a TomTom auto Autorun file in the root Dir of the card. Remove this file or put it in a folder then should be ok.

Chek out the root of your SD for a Start.exe (think thats whats it's called) with tomtom icon.
The phone does a check on the SD at boot or isertion of card and does an auto run on of tomtom from it
got this on my T-Mob MDA Compact too

Thats not it. Removed that
I also removed the entry in the startup folder to no-avail

I just renamed the autorun.exe file in that "magic" folder named 2577,
seems to do the trick (the cabs com in handy after reflashing )

If I rename that file, when i start tomtom is says "no maps found!" I know this is old but ive been waiting for it to fully load then turn off with every soft reset. Driving me insane.

TomTom No Maps Found

I dont think I have the same storage card issue as the users who occassionaly lose their maps. I cant even get TomTom to see the maps after install, I can view the maps directly from file explorer and all the contents seem fine. I have also tried formating the card to FAT however this does not help. Can someone post their 'currentmap.dat' file so I can see the structure please? I am using TomTom6, thanks.
You might try this: make a folder called 2577 in the root of your sdcard. Inside that folder you add an empty file called autorun.exe. I realise that this might sound strange. So, just make a file with any editor, save it and rename it to autorun.exe. That should work.
That worked a charm, thanks!
i delete config file in tomtom and it is working again

Sure....what exact files are you downloading? You should be able to tell when you're downloading them that the extension is ".cab"...as long as that's the case, just put the .cab file on your phone and click it to run from there.

in other words. Don't unpack the "cab" files on your computer or phone... just transfer the entire "cab" package to your sd card or phone. Use file explorer (on your phone) to navigate where you have saved the cab files. Select the cab file and the installation will begin
aaand this too just for the noobness haha.. if you've d/l'd a .cab to your pc and have winrar installed on it.. winrar will show the .cab's icon as that little set of books like a .rar file.. they're both archives, but the .cab doesn't need unpacking.. it's like a windows mobile version of a .exe for the pc.. just saying, i did that too at 1st.. a loong time ago.. haha
just copy and paste to your phone storage and you are all set

TTN Help

Okay so I got TomTom Navigator 7 and a UK&Ireland map. I've installed TomTom on my MicroSD card and it opens, now it says there are no maps. Where do I put all the map files? I've googled and can't find a solution.
So far I've tried the root,
SD\Program Files\Navigator
and
SD\Program Files\Navigator\maps
Also I'm getting the BTTrayCE error thing, I've searched for the DLL's on my device to rename them but I can't find them -.-
And finally, I've heard about a lag in the app, how can it be fixed? I found a link but lost it -.-
Thanks

what:
app 7.???
map v???
they don't work all with each other. this would be your problem.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
folder with any name on root
pna file is defining name and there you can find a version number too
(\storage card\UK&Ireland\<files> OR \storage card\map1\<files>)
for raster, voices, postcodes they can be on root or in PF folder
Also I'm getting the BTTrayCE error thing, I've searched for the DLL's on my device to rename them but I can't find them -.-

Click to collapse
\windows\BtCoreIf.dll
\windows\BtSdkCE30.dll
just delete them. they replacing rom files with the same name but 5 years newer verions of broadband bluetooth driver
by deleting, original ROM files will reappear
you can't see them because file browser is not showing them.
There should be about 7000 files in \windows folder
(hidden,rom,system attributes)
you need different file browser. total commander is free and cool
another option:
2 files is the whole application, no regs.
backup those to SD card, copy shortcut file from \windows\start menu\programs,
uninstall TT
and copy them back
tomtom navigator.exe
data.chk
And finally, I've heard about a lag in the app

sorry, i didn't. can't help. just don't run it from SD and if you can install it on fresh ROM or burn to rom so they'll not be fragmented. and don't keep to many POI switched ON
but I heard about that it likes to crash in rhodo and mine is like hell.
still trying to figure that out, it's not crashing when I m not moving. could be I had wrong sett for gps.

[Q] Odd Problem with startup.txt - it gets deleted!

I just started doing the xdandroid (since it was 'finalized' on 9/16), by downloading the cab, and installing the reference version of the package.
Everything installs and runs fine. The first time. After a graceful shut-down, and re-starting, I learn that the startup.txt file is 0 bytes -- empty! So, Android won't boot.
Why is my startup.txt continually being modified and cleared?
Any info appreciated.
Thx.
Jon
I have the same Problem...
Did you guys search? If I search in the android thread on "0 bytes" I get 20 results. It's a bug of the startup utility. Don't use it or rename startup.txt to default.txt. Maybe putting the startup.txt to read only should work to.
Best option: DON'T USE MGJDROIDUTIL!!!
Also, for you cab peoples - it uses this by default - use haret.exe!!!
i had the same prob. it goes to haret and if u click run it will say it cant find default text. uninstall android. delete all files in andboot folder. reinstall. copy and paste the "startup.txt" file to the same folder. rename it "default.txt" or just "default."
the same thing will happen to the startup.txt but the default.txt will always work. you just have to hit run when it gets to haret.
I had the same issue, the problem only seems to occur when you check/uncheck the Hardware 3D Box.

Dude... it's MGJDroidUtil that's causing the issue. I hear there's an update coming, but for the time being
DON'T USE IT!!!!!!!!!
Sorry I had to get forceful with the text, but it seems some aren't getting the point...
Lol relax, I've learned that the hard way. I just wanted to explain to these guys my side of the symptom and what I notice that seems to have caused the problem. I agree with you though.
I do not even know MGJDroidUtil, but I have the same issue. It happens along side with SD card corruption (file000.chk)

Are you using the cab install & using that shortcut it put in your start menu? Then you are using MGJDroidUtil.

Jesus why can't you just not use the MGJDroidUtil?!? I'm not sure why that's so difficult. If you don't use it, it won't screw up your startup.
I had the same issues. What I did is after installing it go into file explorer and long press haret.exe and add it to programs and set it on your home screen as the link. )
There is a new startup tool, use that. Delete the old one.

Interesting. I've always used the CAB install. Shall I remove the CAB and go with the RAR?

I would, just because then you get a better feel of what's really happening. I installed the cab for the first time last night... that thing is an atrocity.
At any rate, MGJDroidUtil was also updated, so you should be safe using it again - assuming you're using the newly updated version that is.
hi there i got the new build 28-9 and i got the problem when i want to boot it...its says storagecard/andboot directory does not exist...while its exist... someone told me to:
Startup.txt, in the cmdline section. Don't use the startup utility (MGJDroidUtil) if you edit the startup manually tho. It'll blast out whatever you put in there.
but i dont know where the Startup.txt is..in my sd card i been searching but no results and i got a gsm touch pro 2... well maybe i should delete everything again...are these FSCK0000.REC files also from this builds?cuase i didnt delete that..i only deleted the andboot and 100android(dcim) files

Yes, the .rec files are from the build. You can put an entry in your froyo.user.conf that deletes them for you.
Also, you can't find your startup.txt...? How are you running Android, it should be where haret.exe is!
its after you install and load android. after exiting android and returning to winmo, somewhere along the lines startup text gets deleted. for what reason? i know not..
hey atleast it teaches us workarounds lol
ye i know but i could find that file thats why i think it didnt work this time for me
is com.handcent.nextsms-2.9.29 a android file? and EncFiltLog to?
tnx cheers..btw im just gonna install it all over again

[Q] Cannot delete contents in extSDcard

So I recently found out that I cannot delete the contents within my SD Card, worked before.
I have tried it with the stock file explorer from samsung and ES file explorer. What happens is that I try to delete it, it disappears, then I load up the file manager app again and the files are there!
I can load up these files no problem (video files and everything plays well)
Does anyone know any way to fix it?

Download, " Folder mount" from google play, it will detect a faulty SD card & will fix it, reboot, you will have again a functional Ext. SD Card.
