it open the application, and shows the welcome page, but it look like German, I CLICK down left conner button "OVI verwalten" it jump out and shows :

"Program closed
Program TomTom MOBILE
Reason code KERN-EXEC
Reason number 3"

which on right hand down conner is "Abbrechen" button, this is look like exit, it close the program immediately.

could u tell me what reason is that please, i saw somebody in this thread said it works on the a925. is any thing i did wrong?

thanks a lot.

hello i try to translate the opening page mean: "keine karte gefunden" no maps have been found, and i click the "OVI verwalten" it is jump out, so i think the problem for me now is to find a map, and put into the P-series, i am trying , hope i got the good news.

TomTom Mobile 5 for A1000/A925

Firstly let me say that TomTom was never meant to be loaded onto an A1000 or A925 but with a bit of tweaking it will work!
It will work on the A925 but SORRY, no sound. The method of installing the files I will base on the fact that you have Nopex installed on your A1000 and have an x drive.


1. TomTom Bugs:

1. TomTom will not work on an A1000 using it's internal GPS, you will require a bluetooth GPS which you can get quite readily from Ebay.

2. There appears to be a bug with TomTom sound files working on A925's, to date, I am not aware of any work around to fix this problem. However inspite of this it does become a very good street directory even without the voices on the A925.

3. there is a bug with the backlight not working on the A1000 using night mode....there is a fix to this problem.

4. Do NOT pair your bluetooth GPS to the mobile as this will under some circumstances cause problems with the software....... allow it to locate and link without a passcode.


2. Obtaining Files:

Use the search button or google and look for forums there are numerous places out there with all the maps you need, I don't want to make it too easy but piratebay is your friend as is GSM-forum and i-phone, search.

There are numerous formats of tomtom out there, you specifically need to locate the Mobile version titled (of course) TomTom mobile 5, version 5.2 (build 540, works extremely well on the A1000). When you locate the file version 5.2 and expand it you may have an option of choosing a version for the SE P910i this will work also, as it is a version of 5.2 (5.21 or 5.202 to be exact), or for symbian UIQ.

Choose the version for symbian UIQ.

I have had versions 5.21, 5.202 and 5.2 loaded and 5.2 appears to work slightly better with faster hookup times to the GPS with less errors linking. Either way you will then end up with a file titled MMSSC, all the files you need are contained within this folder.

3. Maps:

Maps from any version of TOMTOM are compatible in the mobile software, ie those from TomTom Navigator,Go etc.

Search for your maps the same way you did for the software if you have problems once the software is installed with it wanting an activation key you either have the wrong "fixed" version or you may need to install the Guam Map. The reason the "fixed" Guam map is used is that is is extremely small in memory size and is required for you to use the other maps, remember, you may or may not require it. If you search 'GSM forum' you will find a comprehensive range of maps.

4. Loading Files On the A1000:

You will require a micro flash card to contain the TomTom file on your mobile, around 128mb is bare minimum for some maps and upto 1 gb for others, so when you have located your maps this is where you place the files.

Directory structure to use with nopEX:

Copy Licenses
System\Apps\TTMOBILE and TomTom subfolders to
X:\ as X:\Licenses, X:\System\Apps\TTMOBILE and X:\TOMTOM


Copy:
System\Apps\TTNAVCONTACTS to C:\System\Apps\TTNAVCONTACTS
( TTNAVCONTACTS.APP could be placed at X:\System\Apps\TTNAVCONTACTS to save space)

Copy VOICES and Maps to D:\
Copy ZIP to D:\ (Full Postal Code adds-on)
Copy special voices to D:\VOICES
Copy Speed Camera Database's .bmp and .ov2 files (e.g. the single file version @ pocketgps_uk_sc_sep05.zip\single file version\ov2 bmp files) to the map directory (e.g. D:\Great_Britain_Plus-Map)

so in the end it will look a bit like this:

C:\system\apps\TTNAVCONTACTS\TTNAVCONTACTS.AIF
\TTNAVCONTACTS.AIP
\TTNAVCONTACTS.r01
\TTNAVCONTACTS.r02
\TTNAVCONTACTS.r03
\TTNAVCONTACTS.r04
\TTNAVCONTACTS.r05
\TTNAVCONTACTS.r06
\TTNAVCONTACTS.r07
\TTNAVCONTACTS.r018

D:\map name-Map\...

\VOICES\DATA04.CHK
\VOICES\DATA04.VIF
\VOICES\DATA05.CHK
\VOICES\DATA04.VIF

\ZIP\(postcodes)Postal

\tomtom\data.chk

\TTmobile

X:\itn
\Licences
\raster
\schemes
\system\apps\TTMOBILE\TREMOR.DLL
\system\apps\TTMOBILE\TTMOBILE.aif
\system\apps\TTMOBILE\TTMOBILE.APP
\system\apps\TTMOBILE\TTMOBILE.mbm
\system\apps\TTMOBILE\TTMOBILE.rsc




5. Patching the Backlight on night mode:

If you are lucky enough to find a patched version 5.2 all the better.

For those of you who may want to try patching the backlight here are the fixes, edit TTMOBILE.APP using a Hexeditor :

PATCH Blacknight on Night Mode

FileOffset: Old Value New Value
000CC6D4: CC 01
000CC6D5: 10 00
000CC6D6: 02 00
000CC6D7: EB EA


6. Backups of the A1000:

Take care as if you backup/Sync your A1000 as it affects the software of TOMTOM and you may need to reinstall it (tomtom).


7. Changing voice warnings on the POI's:

Not necessary but if you like to fiddle this can be altered.
Locate a website that allows you to obtain sample extracts of "text to voice" software and manufacture a few sound files like "you are approaching a red light speed camera" as .wav files. These voice samples can be anything you want them to be, not necessarily the above.
Using the tomtom POI sound patcher. Go here h**p://www.automated.it/ttg-poipatcher.html for instruction on making your own custom POI sound files.
Your audio files should be 16 bit mono and have a sample rate of 22050hz for TTGO and navigator or 16000hz sample rate for TomTom Mobile and saved as ogg files

8. Acceptable GPS devices.

I use a Holux GPSlim 236 which I obtained from ebay but generally any bluetooth gps would be suitable. If you find that the software is not linking to the external GPS after numerous tries and after checking the settings, It is more than likely that you have obtained a version that has not had the GPS part of the software "doctored"or hexedited to accept gps other than TomTom branded Gps's. You will need to find another version of 5.2 that has been 'fixed'.

9. Additional colour schemes.

If you logon to the TomTom site with a name and email address preferably one you have made up for such occassions, but, can still obtain and access any emails sent to that amail addy...then log on to the site from within the tomtom software on your mobile ( make sure you are connected to the internet) refer last page of the software under 'Download Extras' you will be able to obtain some free colour schemes. Alternatively if you already have these downloaded, place them in the schemes folder on the mobile.

10. Problems:

Sound : you may encounter voice problems after installing ie No sound, check the tomtom volume as it works indepedantly of the mobile phones volume control and in most cases you will find the software volume turned down.

Finally if you have the newer firmwares on your mobile and have no need of nopex then just move all the files that were on x drive to D.

HI TRICKY BROTHER, U ALWAYS SO QUICK!!!! ,THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!IT WORKS VERY WELL!

I have tried tomtom 5.202 on moto a925 tonight, it has some problems with sound when navigating, some times it do not have the voice direction, such as round about. It like a closehanded co-driver trust me too much. but it give me a chance to aware the route, otherwise just like people said, "u will become a fool after using a navigater.

CURRENTLY I AM USING uk map v562, how 's this one ?
compares to v632 ? but anyway i don't think the road will change repidly !! since they need year or two to build up a now road!!!

so i would like to keep this version, unless v632 will have quite different features.

[tommy8850]

by the way this is a really looooooooooooooooooooooong thread!!!

helpful but little bit hard to search. 2 weeks , I know more about my a925, which i thought it was just huge!

[Gorheru]

Hi all,

Can anybody have a solution for lack of voive in A925?
In my opinion the phone processor is to weak to proccess the voice on fly. These are ogg files compressed in one chk file. My suggestion is to lover the quantity of ogg files and compress back to one file. Maybe it helps. I saw the guide how to recompress the .chk files on http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/arch...p/t-67476.html

Maybe somebody have a time to check it.

Regards

Try these voices.

13-Celeb_Voices_16kHz_for nokia 6600/3230/7610-ect.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=B2A1QS30
Voices on different phones!!!!!


The reason some voices work and others don!t is due to the different bit rate Nokia uses for audio. On the 6260 and 6600 for example the max bit rate is 16kHz but on the 6630 & 6680 24kHz is the max. So if the voice file is compiled at 22kHz (which seems to be the most common) the 6260 & 6600 will not process it correctly and you get no sound!!!!!!!
