Hi all
The TomTom 5.2 runs on my HTC S740 but i can not enable the GPS
Receiver,
only Bluetooth Receiver are selectable...not the build in GPS Receiver.
any solution?
regards schiefersoft
You might need to try the Microsoft GPS Intermediary Driver configuration.
Have a look at Paul's post on Modaco.
See: http://www.modaco.com/content/smart...-utility-for-configuring-gpsid-on-smartphone/
I'm not 100% sure it'll help as I don't have this phone nor have I tried it. But from what I know, this is an important link
thank you for your reply but this tool doesnt work on the S740

Are you sure it doesn't work on the S740? So you installed it and tried it?
Try posting on the Modaco thread I posted if you don't get much response here. I think it should work on the S740.
In short, without this utility installed and working there's no other way for TomTom to know about the internal GPS. This utility is supposed to help TomTom connect to the internal GPS.
Someone gave it a try, see post, and it didn't work.
Any news on making TT5.2 detect the internal GPS?
TomTom working
Hi , I got tt5.2 to work with the internal gps , I put the settings on other bluetooth receiver , and com4 .
Work perfectly
Only problem is the key mapping , no delete button
Hi, can you describe this more in detail please?
thanks
I only got the phone yesterday , So it is still standard .I run the quickgps app , then installed TT , and used My Mobiler to set the TomTom settings as you need a touoch screen to change the settings .
Please let me know what Info I can provide that will help you
Regards
Werner, you probably aren't using TT 5.2, cuz for that one you don't need a touch screen (the Rose hasn't).
But Schiefersoft, you can use the newer TTN versions (6 or even 7) also on your Rose, in addition you need an application that puts a cursor on your non touchscreen that you can use to point. Google FakeCursor here or on the net and give it a try.
Big advantage is you can use the newer version 6 or 7 maps.
On my very old non touchscreen HTC StarTrek (aka Smartflip) i used TTN7 with FakeCursor.
Use the Garmin XT 5.0 Instead !!
Works for the Windows Smartphone and PPC !!
Works Like a Charm on the HTC Rose...
Other GPS Software is Route 66 version 8 or the IGO Version 8.
This should also work fine on the Htc Rose.

Ok here's my Problem,
I upgraded My SX56 from PPC 2002 to WM2003, not minding the changes at first, and liking some of them, untill I got home from work that night and tried to reload the driver for my folding Keyboard, and the AOL Instant messanger 2.0. It was then that I found that WM2003 did not support these. Does anyone know of a program that would make these as well as other 2002 apps compatible with WM2003?
I gave up and went into an AT&T store and used a display SX56 to write the Original ROM to my MMC card and then uploaded it back to my SX56. So now I'm back at square one again and I'd like to be on WM2003, but I can't sacrifice my apps to do so. :evil: Can anyone advise? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks all!

Re:
i might have a answer for your Aim problem as i use a ipaq 38250 too with WM 2003 in addition to the SX-56. i found that installing www.aol.co.uk did the trick for me
Isn't this the same aim 2.0 that I have? I think it is, and it won't reinstall after the upgrade to WM2003.
it worked for me and im running both the same version of WM200 on my ipaq and my sx-56
Where did you get your WM2003 upgrade? I got mine at My Siemens.com I wonder if you have a different version because when I try to install it using activesync it says it will only install when a compatible device is connected?
hmmm i used that upgrade too plus cooked roms and it worked fiune for me.
well thank you for you're info, maybe if I can get some info on the keyboard driver, i will upgrade to wm2003 again and try out that aim version. I appreciate your help man.
Phil
Oh hey, what version of active snyc are you using, I'm using the one the SX56 came with, maybe that's the problem? Or the windows version you're running on you're pc, Im on XP?
dunno, it works for me i even copied it over from the IPAQ without sintalling it and i get on just fine
The keyboard driver available in the kitchen works well for me, you must remember though that it initialises com1 automatically and needs to be disabled before using serial gps, this resets to active also after every soft reset.
Hello,
Anyone got following devices working with the pre-release of WM2005 :

Sandisk Wificard ?
MSN (not pre-installed but when you install seperately) ?
Bluetooth earphone?
Any other major problems?
Thanks. :roll:

WM2003SE why change to WM2005 test version,its working fine
I`m staying with WM2003SE it`s working fine, don`t have to have the newest stuff that is not fully working, good luck with your crashing beta versions
I think people just want to see a new interface,but then realise that you lose the essential, and you have a half working windows. Leave the 2005 and wait for the full versions guys :mrgreen:

I couldn't agree more - there's a REALLY good 2003 SE ROM on here and i much prefer it. I've got screen rotation which was the only thing that impressed me coming from 2003->2005..
Hi,
just got a new S740/Rose and installed Igo 8.3.2. Acutally, the software just works, only problem being that I can't use my joystick to navigate (buttons seem to be disabled) and since the S740 doesn't have a touchscreen, I'm stuck there. I suppose one can modify the keybind.txt file located within the data.zip (IGO8/DATA.ZIP - config/keybind.txt) file in the IGO8 folder.
Anyone has a working one ?
Or is it sys.txt that has to be modified ?
Thanks beforehand.
Cheers,
Al
Use Garmin XT version 5 instead !!
Works like a charm on the Rose !
There is a special Smartphone edition !!
So you can use the Joystick on the Phone..

Peter
Hi Peter,
thanks a lot, will try it out. Though what I liked about Igo is that we have all the maps of almost any places needed (which I don't know wheter it's the case for Garmin XT but will try it).
Cheers,
Al
really hope so expert can keybind it to the s740,
still prefer the igo program over garmin,
I use Sygic McGuider, also works very well on the S740.
- Fast and good navigation
- nice interface (intuitive)
The few user and expert reviews I've read, are also positive

I've downloaded Garmin Mobile XT 5.00.20w, the position is tracked OK I think, but I always get no more than 1 "signal bar" (gps reception). Also, GPS info shows at most 2 satellites locked and the sky chart only shows a sun icon and a moon icon.
Why?
hello.. i have to same problem.. i try meny versions of IGO.. please post here if somone make it work.. Garmin XP and Sygic McGuider work Fine.. and only that 2 one but igo have maps with nice look 3D
sorry form me eng.
AVE...
Has anyone informations about key binding in Rose? I would make proper configuration files if I knew how are the buttons mapped.
Guys, why don't you use fake cursors? They are kind of a pain in the arse, but if you want to stick to IGO, I think this is the best solution. Just google fake cursor.
Hello!
I'm looking for good gpd appz for my HTC s740 (btw this smartphone is awsome!) and I don't know anything about it. I downloaded many times GPS programs from the Internet like: TT, Garmin or IGO8. I couldn'y install it and that was for PDA... I'm not a Mobile Specialist and I've a big ask for you. Please, tell me what GPS program do you have on your s740 and please tell me how should I install it. Thank you for answer. Btw I use WM6.1.
Search is timesaver. Next time try first simple query "navigation". You'd find this immediately.
Hi everyone, I have recently upgraded to a touch pro and installed NFSFAN windows 6.5 rom. I then installed iGuidance 2009 from the cd. While the application works the TTS (text to speech) that reads the actual street address doesn't work. The regular directions which are waves do execute but not the TTS part. I have read the forums and even tried the registry changes as someone suggested but it was a no go.
Anyone have any insight as to what the issue is?
Anyone have any insight here?
tried
I tried things that was suggest still no work. Any help would really be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tony
Tony, what rom are you running? I am running NFSFANS 6.5 Rom and I wondering if its just the rom or just tts on windows 6.5 not working.
rom
I tried all the roms and still giving me the same problem. the tts for the street name is not working.
Thanks,
Tony
tonsa thanks for that update. Wow this really sucks. I read one person over ppc users who mentioned he was running 6.5 and navigator was working. Just can't quite understand what is causing this.
FYI, running a HTC Touch Pro. My iguidance TTS hasn't been reading street addresses at all since I got this phone (running a 6.5 windows rom "NFans"). Yesterday I had my Blue Tooth "ON", and finally iGuidance TTS worked! I didn't even have my actual bluetooth activated just the bluetooth on via the com manager.
Hope this helps everyone out there!
