Hi, how can I use 2 maps (e.g. UK + Fr)? If I copy the new map into TOMTOM folder the old .dat files will be overwrote...

deuchbah · 02-09-2007, 08:51

^^ 2 methods...

first... if u r only interested in UK & france maps, then u might as well download Western Europe map which includes all of Western Europe.

second... place UK & France map folders in the root of memory stick. I dont understand what u mean by old .dat files. There aren't any! Each map comes in its own folder. In tomtom u can chose to load another map. It will ask you for the key each time u load another map. so... generate the keys for UK & france & keep it in ur notepad & use when necessary.

NOTE: u dont place the map files in the tomtom folder. You place the map folder(s) in the root of the memory stick.

Thanks

Nasif Khan · 02-25-2007, 14:38

It is generated by the phone when you install a map.

I see above someone already asked for the South African maps.

Still looking.. Anyone heard of South Africa maps for TomTom somewhere?? i've also heard it's been recently developed by TomTom, but can't find it anywhere. Please be on the lookout.

Thank you

Many people have posted with this issue.

All goes well moving the files across to the root of the MS on my P9901. I can locate the SIS file and either click that to run the install or do it through the menus as suggested.

The problem comes in that once the Install Software bit occurs, correctly identifying it is installing TomTom NAVIGATOR 6.02 it completes the bar and then appears to do nothing. No app is launched. The TomTom app does not appear where other installed apps appear, under Tools.

I believe it it because it has not installed, as if you attempt an Uninstall theere is no TomTom app listed.

This seems to be what a stack of other people have also reported.

Any ideas?

ETA: I am wondering if it could be that...

1) I do not have enough capacity on my phone, as I am running right now with only a 64MB MS
2) There is no GPS receiver attached

If perhaps a few others can help identify some trends on memory capacity and GP recs then it may help those of us who are not working figure out why. Thanks in advance.

I ws hoping to prove the concept before I went out and acquired a bigger MS and GPS receiver...

luckybob99 · 03-05-2007, 23:09

First of all excellant forum !! Now I have the same problem as above

. I have a gps attached and a 2gb memory card . It maybe the handsets firmware ( I'm running the latest) as per the sonyericsson site . I've tried the 6.010 and 6.020 . The 6.020 runs the install but gives no completion
and no short cuts are in the tools menu's ,strange

. You guys that have it working on your p990i what firmware are you running ??

badboyplaya · 03-05-2007, 23:43

Hi guys,

This forum is a brialliant!!!
Im having the same problem I copied the folders to my P990 and tried to intstall through the control panel..but the install builds up but nothing happens? im running the R7A001 firmware? can anyone help us please?

i wud love it if TomTom6 worked for me!!

luckybob99 · 03-06-2007, 09:48

Hi badboyplaya just to let you know I'm running the same firmware e.g (R7A001) . I've had a quick look at the sonyericsson site but cant find a way of downgrading the firmware . Does anybody know if this can be done ??

badboyplaya · 03-06-2007, 11:50

Hi Bob,

Im not sure if its a firmware problem? even it was buddy i dont think we are able to downgrade? the latest firmware is R9 but I havent updated mine yet as i cant be bothered! P990 running ok for me why wud i mess with it lol

However out tomtom6 issue is a whole another problem, i desperately want this to work cause I hate using Nav4All!!! My thinking is..im not copying the folders in the right place..people are saying the route of you memory stick? is that the main section i.e where the main folder such as pic/video/other are listed? originally i pasted them into the other folder that didnt work? then i tried to copy them on to the main section (which i think is the route) and it told me this command is not allowed?

so then i made a folder called tomtom6 in the main directory and put the files in there..this did not install either? Same problem with the install bar buliding and nothing happens! i have spent the last two days trying to fix this and im goin mad!!

this is my week off work & not having much relaxation!!!

Can anybody out there please help us!!?? come on fellow P990i users let me enjoy my phone even more!!! lol thanks all
