Does anybody have experience with installing TT5 on a WM2005 pda?
I tried with the setup on the CD and i tried copying the cab files and manually install them. Neither of thes options is working, i'm getting an error when trying to install ttn.cab. Installation unsuccessful. Sad

Anyone withthe same experience or with a sollution?

Thx

Its does work.

You need to bypass Activesync 4 and install using CAB file.

as i don;t have wm2005 i can't comment only quote

It does work. I'm running it on my JasJar. I had to install 4 cab files. Copy TTN.cab, GPS.cab, PIMAddIn.cab, WZD.cab and a voice file (I used USAM.cab (Richard)) to your WM 5.0 device. Install on the WM 5.0 machine in this order:

TTN
GPS
WZD
PIMAddIn
Voice

You can install them to the ROM if you want, but I would recommend installing on your storage card.

Next, pop out your SD/CF/Storage card into a USB reader. Install the map that you want use via the normal installation disk. You'll have to select installation via "Memory Card Reader" since TT5 will never see your WM 5.0 machine. You HAVE to install you map via a memory card reader.

Only then, launch the program. Go thru the setup. Enter your new device code. Bam! Done.

I think this goes without saying, but once you've installed the map via the memory card reader, put the storage card back in your WM 5.0 machine and only then, start the TomTom application. You'll go through the setup wizard and you should be done. :D

I tried to copie them files to my jasar. But if i try to install them manually like you said, everything works, accept the ttn.cab file (installation unsuccessful). Sad

((
Maybe the wrong TT5 cd? Does anybody has heard of the Balkan version of tomtom5?
I also tries the 5.1 version, also same problem.
Thanks already for youre cooperations :D

I too have got it working, but does anybody else find that when the screen is rotated horizontally, the screen update rate becomes very slow, and the new frames take a long time to draw. In vertical mode it's perfectly animated.

Hi guys, any suggestions !?

My HW setup:
Axim x51v WM5.
1Gb SD Sandisk Ultra II.
Holux GPSlim 236.

My SW setup:
Bluetooth outgoing connection Com7 (to the Holux).
GPS-settings WM5 Programport = Com4 Hardwareport = Com7 @ 38600 Baud.

I've installed TomTom5 the manual way ie copied the files from the CAB's to the right places (app is placed in rom and the maps on the SD-card).
I never got the tt5.cab to work. I hade to take the files from a wm2003 machine.

Tomtom starts fine but...

1)
It does not find the GPS by itself after config. I have to reconfigure the GPS everytime I start the application and that doesn't help everytime either.

I select 38600, com4 in TomTom and wait...sometimes it finds the gps after a minute or so, sometime it doesn't. Everytime it fails to find it I can start GPS-view (or other program) and it finds the gps right away.

If I disabel the WM5 GPS-portsharing my port is com7 or 8 and TomTom5 does not see those ports, I read somewere that TomTom looks in the registry for available com ports and WM5 acts differently then 2003 in this matter.

2)
I seems to be very unstable. If I get it to find my gps it crashes all the time. I've tried the 5.1 (5160) version but it did not solve the problem. My system seems rock solid otherwise...it's just TomTom that crashes.

Any suggestion how to get Tomtom to work would be much appreciated !

Hi to any experts on the forum.
I have an XDAIIs, which after I went to corporate mode has worked beautifully with TOM TOM 5.1. It allows full operation of incoming calls etc whilst working great with traffic plus.
However I am being seduced with a free upgrade to that big beauty of a device, the XDA exec.
This operates WM5 os and it appears to have a problem running TOM TOM, as contributors on this forum have explained.
Is there an idiot proof way of overcoming this or should I stick with the XDAIIs or will TOM TOM make it compatible with WM5 soon?

Many thanks, BV.
