Either you're pulling my leg here (or your own) or you somehow managed to convert your all-state-navigation map into seperate state maps?

I've tested all maps on my p910, mda vario, ipaq 6340, mitac a701 and they all seem to work correctly. I even installed it for some friends on their pda / phone which consists of various models.

Just like the complete Western-Europe map, with which I can navigate from country to country without switching maps, I can also calculate a state to state trip without the program asking me to switch maps. I also have the Eastern-Europe map next to the Western-Europe map on my phone and I only have to switch maps when I get to the Eastern Europe part of the journey.

I tried a demo route with the USA map from Santa Barbara (CA) to Orlando (FL) as I'm not in the US at the moment and TT calculated the route just fine. I even played the demo at increased speed and never saw it asking me to switch maps once.

So now my question for you is : With what phone, pda, or other system are you using this map, what size memorycard and which version of TT5 (mobile)?

Let me know man!

Cheers

hope this helps

When I try to do a DEMO route , it is waiting for a vaild GPS signal.
And I know TomTom will not place you on a current map if you do not have a valid GPS signal. And the valid GPS location will only place you on the correct map. So if you are, say in the US state of New ****** , then you should be in New ****** for TomTom to place your location on that map. If you try and bring up another state, say Illinois, TomTom will reboot because it cannot locate you on the map of Illinois because your GPS location is in New ******.

In order for TomTom to place you on any map , should not the GPS location correlate with the coordinates of the map ?

Just a question. If is stand corrected , please enlighten me.

Thanks

You can always plan a demo route in TT with advanced route planning (A to B), in the second field of the main menu it's the first option. After you've chosen your departure point and destination, you have the option to view a demo of the route after it has been calculated. You can either choose to display text directions, images of the route, a map of the route, a demo of the route or a brief summary. All this without the actual need of a gps-signal! Strange but true, try it!

I agree that if you try to plan it the normal way you'll be needing a gps-signal so you're right about that, but not with this option and sorry for not mentioning that. You also have to set a "home location" for that particular map although it's not necessary, but ******** TT users should have known there was a way of planning a route without a gps-signal

I have p910a tomtom 5 v5.200 (540) I put the entire usa map in but can not nagivate from state to state, but the program can see all the states. Oh I have 2g card, and the size of the usa map is 913mb.

@deliciosomarron

that is a good tip. i have not totally explored this option as i have a bt gps.
i certainly will try this, thanks for the tip.

i have a number of maps on my card. i have new england and mid-atlantic as well as the canada map. will try "advanced planning " and see how that goes.

thanks

I am in the process of loading TomTom maps onto a WM5 device, and so far the only ones that work are these: (from my post in the PDA section)

The maps I found to be working on XDA Mini S (9100) are Great Britain - v562, Great Britian Plus - v632, Australia - v568, Iberia - v562, Benelux Plus - v571, DE AT CH PL CZ Plus - v571, Scandanavia - v568, PL-CZ-SK-HU - v645

I am in the process of trying more, but am in desperate need of a working France map, as the one I have does not work.

ID=France.PNA
2083056789
562

All the links to the new France maps are down, so if anyone out there has a newer version, could they please post a link.

Thanks

PS - Most of the maps work on P910i, but something must have been changed in Navigator 5 for XDA, as most of the maps do not even show up in the change map list when loaded on the XDA.

@paul4now38

OK, now I'm puzzled! I have TT version 5.202 (542) with gps-driver V1.20, but that should not be the problem because if the program can see al the states in the map it should also be able to navigate from state to state (and does so in the demo mode without gps on my phone).

Try to update to 5.202 (542) if possible, maybe that could solve your problem. Let me know if this works or else another solution has to be found.

[paul4now38]

I in stalled major roads of america and it worked, also how to up grade is the newer version any better, THANKS.
