...talking of TTN5....

Has anyone had any success getting TT working with the Wired GPS mouse? Is there a way to connect it to the Exec...?(mini USB to serial connector?)

If the 2 can be physically connected, does the software see it/connect up properly?

TIA

cheers

FYI, I emailed TOMTOM about the installer crashing, and guess what they said. "TOMTOM 5 is not supported on the IMATE JasJar."

What a load of cobblers. It works perfectly well if you install it using the cab files. TOMTOM support is the biggest load of s**t I have ever come across.

JJ works fine with the following:

1) Navigon MN 5

2) TT 5.1

3) OnCourse Navigator

4) iGuidance

These have been tried and tested.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] tintoy:
Just cause it's not supported it doesn't mean they don't think it'll work. it just means that they won't help you fix it if it goes wrong becuase they have not tested on that platform. always worth a try regardless of what the vendor or devlopers say!

Another MDA Pro with TT5

I just got an MDA Pro a couple of weeks ago, and being the fool I am, bought a copy of Tom Tom 5 from Fleabay (doh!).

On receipt, I could not get the software to load from my PC, and when trying to copy over the cab files manually, the ttn.cab file will not load on the PDA. On closer inspection, this has got something to do with 'Bekonl' so appers I have wasted some money on cracked software that does not work.

Is this right? Or if I can obtain an alternative ttn.cab file, will it load, if so will it be locked? I was just looking for a reasonable low priced SatNav solution - but this is proving to be harder than I thought!

For those of you coming from a WM2003 device you can simply install TomTom on a memory card on that. Take the memory card out and put in Universal. It works. That's it.

If the ttn cab fails to install try this;

uninstall all tomtom entries from remove programs.

Remove sd card from device

install gps.cab

soft reset (this is the important bit)

install ttn.cab

JJ works fine with Oziexplorer, Tomtom5x

:wink:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Tuscan:
That's more or less what I have tried already after reading the earlier part of this thread, but so far without success. Can I therefore clarify:

1. I have copied the files from the CD to the SD card. When you say run the GPS.cab first etc, should I copy all the cab files somwhere onto the PDA (any where special?) and then run them all from there?

2. I have lots of attempts now and believe that I have removed all of the components from the previous indstallation attemtps (like Tom Tom folder, Navigator folder) - where else may there be fragments that stop this from working.

3. If I have done part 1. (above) OK, can I just leave the SD card out all during the installation (and just install all the cab files onto the deive)

4. is it gps.cab first, ttn.cab next...and then does it not matter what order the rest are in?

5. As I have fallen foul of a "cracked" version for the ttn.cab, is this going to stop me from getting it all working? (Glad I didn't spend a load of money on a boxed version if TT don't state that it is compatible with the JJ, and all this trouble - I have not got anywhere near the bluetooth GPS set up yet!)

Sorry for the questions, but I am new to PDAs, new to Tom Tom and see from the internet that everyone seems to be experiencing this problem when they try - and struggle to get it working!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Tuscan:
OK, I tried again and it sill wound not work:

1. hard re-set of device - all data wiped

2. copied gps.cab from sd to pda

3. removed sd card

4. installed gps.cab - successful

5. soft reset

6. re-installed sd

7. copied tt.cab to device

8. removed sd card

9. installed ttn.cab - unsuccessful

What more can I do? Soooo frustrating.

Is it really this simple? I've just ordered my O2 Exec and am worried about using my (legit) copy of TomTom 3 on it. I'd have thought TomTom wouldn't allow such an easy solution but if they do then I'm a happy chap! :D

TomTom 5 Maps

Hi

Please help me before i go completely mad. I cannot get those pesky maps to install. I am installing from the original tomtom 5 cds in the Software + maps of western Europe version. The main software and UK jane voice all install OK. But when i insert the second cd and select any of the UK maps option the install programjust disapears. I tried doing a Hard reset on my Universal and starting again. Still get nothing. When i run the TT sw it says "no maps found".

Then i stumbled accross this thread read it through and see that there are many more hurdles needed after i get the maps but found a few usefull threads on maps so. I did another hard reset and tried the suggestion of copying the Cab files direct to my SD card and running from there this time I get the message "Installation of Great_Britain_Plus was unscessful" I have tried this on 2 different SD cards a 1 gb and a 4gb both with plenty of space.

I would be really greatful for a step by step guide or a pointer to the correct thread on this or any other site. I am even happy to pay someone who lives in London to install for me. I am going away on a driving holliday in the UK next week and was hoping to use GPS for the trip but am feeling a bit dissapointed about it now.

Many thanks for any helpfull suggestions

Regards

Charlie

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnandA777:
The Snapdragon 800 includes a built-in cellular radio. Some phones that use this chip support all/nearly all common carrier frequencies. Other phones that use it support only certain frequency bands, usually those of the particular carrier that is selling the phone. I have seen some speculation that the chips in all of these phones may be capable of supporting the full list of frequencies, and that the carrier-locked phones simply disable some bands, possibly via firmware.

Does anyone know whether or not this is true? If so, has anyone looked into whether or not it might be possible to reconfigure which bands are available in any way? If it matters, I would be particularly interested in using the new (A86) Padfone Infinity in the U.S., but T-Mobile and AT&T 4g/LTE frequencies are not listed in the specs.

Thanks!

Hi. i cant understand the sticky threads at all. i have read it 1000 times.

Lost the signal after flashed Imperium ROM.

I believe i can recover that by restore a cwm backup i did some time ago ?

BUT i have formated the internal phone and no restore files are located. I have it on PC but

have not been able to copy the backup folder to the phone so that CWM can find it ??

And the stickys makes no sense to me..

Damn it.

Just knew i was going the wrong way in Imperium AROMA installer .. :/

Any help plz ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sup3rbuck:
I have found a way in the forums to find the files in CWM...

/data/media/clockworkmod/backup..... I put them there and i could find the recovery file.

But i just glanced somewhere that i wont restore them modem . :/

Anyway its restoreing, and i hope it works.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
If you made a full nandroid then it will restore your modem, but not your efs folder - which is responsible for most no network issues.

You'll have to read through the stickies, particularly the 'before you root' and 'imei know this stuff' ones. I'm not going to type it all out for you.

Follow the instructions to flash a stock ROM with an EMG4 baseband, which solves many efs issues. If it doesn't then you'll need to pay for a repair, about £20.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sup3rbuck:
just realised its bricked.

This is because you did not follow suggestions. ES will not do the trick because it will not retain permissions. ADB was your option, or perhaps root explorer.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ffp.:
So i am trying a lot of roms and kernels lately due to some issues i got that i posted in another threat. And after i flashed a nightelf exp kernel, my play store was missing. I tried flashing stock GB rom .62 (with kernel) and everything was fine. But when i flashed nightelf kernel again now my play store AND my dialer apps are missing. When i flash the rom i want (Gin2Jellybean) they are still missing.

What should I do?

PS: even if i flash the gapps zip all gapps appears except for play store. And i already tried adb pushing too...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ffp.:
Just tried with Lupus GB kernel and now the vending.apk and dialer didn't gone missing. Could that be any kind of incompatbility between nightelf kernel and stock .62? It's strange because i think i already did that before...

I don't know what's the problem, but if you plan to use Gin2JellyBean, you can just use the Stock kernel. It works really really well. No lags and battery life is good.

Hello to all,

Two days ago I went online to search successful methods for rooting my L9-P769. After downloading, installing file, backup through stock app, installing root checker plus, and Superuser I was now on a rooted device. This of course was something done with minimal effort through ICS, but now a risky, and tedious endeavor with JB. One of my first tasks was to delete the shabby, awful stock messaging app and go forth happily w/ Chomp SMS. Sadly, I have not received any sms or mms since the stock app was deleted. I have since cleared cache, data, restart, a bit of tweaking to my mobile networks (something I havent any previous experience doing), all of which have done nothing to resolve my issue. I also used Superuser to unroot my phone. Could it be that deleting the stock messaging app, and all of its data/settings has left my device unable to receive sms or mms? Unfortunately, I cant find the link to the root file or the youtube video on which the instructions were given. Any suggestions or advice is enormously appreciated! Anything really to save me from having to go to TMobile Level 2 Tech Support :o

Cheers

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Ilxaot:
LOL. Just so you know, uninstalling the stock Messaging/Phone/Contacts app will disable using those functions. When you use "ChompSMS/invi/Textra/etc." they send the message THROUGH the stock messaging app, they just display everything on THEIR app. So with no app to send/receive from, you're dead in messaging :p

Now, Either somebody can provide you with the .apk/odex files, or you can flash the KDZ using cmahendra's guide found in the General section. You can't miss it (;

This I feel has to be said:

Your spent $400 on a USED iPhone?

Buying used phones entails some downsides, like not getting to claim warranty, and this blacklisting thing is really sad, but, meh, that's why we buy them cheap.

Also, I feel the lesson here is, take precautions when buying second-hand, for instance, leave the phone unused for 31+ days. Buy a bat and work out. Take incriminating photos of the seller, etc.

Anyway isn't it possible -although illegal, I know- to change your IMEI?

I am almost positive I got this same error a couple of years ago on a phone purchased directly from AT&T. It was a bad SIM card. I wasn't able to make calls or anything. They replaced the SIM and it worked. So for those who buy a used phone and get that error, check your SIM card first.
