I've found that TomTom always crashes when I reach a certain roundabout on the A303!!!!! Its not a complex roundabout...but its a pain when I'm unsure which turning to take, hehe!!

After I'm a couple hundred yards away from it, I can start TomTom up again, and all is fine!

I've just installed the 5.2 update and noticed the following...

- MUCH faster refresh and general use whilst in TomTom (menus quicker)

- No need for GPSGate, it turns on/off bluetooth for me, and shows my Bluetooth GPS port in the GPS settings now!

Overall, definitely worth putting on!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] GMTRB5:
just installed 5.21 .. looks really nice in portrait mode, no problems with pairing to the gps bluetooth receiver, but landscape mode is disappointing .. refresh rates too slow .. if it was as quick as in portrait mode i'd be well chuffed...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sergeantash:
I must admit I haven't ever used it in Portrait mode but will give it a go - I would say that in Landscape mode refresh is perhaps 2/3 frames per second.

I really wish they wouldn't even bother releasing Pocket PC devices unless they were equiped with sufficient hardware.

You wouldn't dream of buying a Pentium 3 PC these days would you, its speed may be sufficient for every day tasks, but you always buy something thats future proofed!!

Why do they do it!! Particularly without allowing the capability for hardware upgrades too!?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] SiliconS:
Nothing wrong with the Universal's hardware. It's almost the best you can buy at the moment. Try directing your anger to the developers of the software that isn't optimised for the platform and the OS, despite what they claim on their website. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sergeantash:
Yes but based on the current standarding being the 'Pocket PC' platform, the hardware developers ought to shape their devices around supporting its various downfalls.

Its a vicious circle I appreciate, but hey the condition of roads aint that great, but its the cars that have to be adapted to cope. See my point?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Anton.Valleyman:
But it's also the point that overall it's easier and cheaper to change the cars than dig up the roads :wink:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] JaySea:
I dunno what weird problems you guys all have, I updated with activesync so that is what is new in 5.21. The app looks completely the same as it was in 5.1

The bluetooth support in wm5 for the universal was there in 5.1 I had troubles myself with getting it right in the original 5.0 version.

As from 5.1 it is just plug and play with the bluetooth gps mouse.

Have not had a single problem with 5.1 nor do I have any problems with 5.21.

I simply cannot reproduce the trouble people are having here. Some even mention of new folders being made while installing which leaves you old data and use of extra internal memory usage. I could not reproduce this problem either. Update went really well and all folders I used before were used in that install.

What I found out was that while the program ran and I got an incomming call, my tomtom sound went off and got put back on when the call was finished. I dunno if this was the case with 5.1. This might be a new feature in 5.21 but as I already said I dunno if 5.1 already had this.

Anyways I am happy with the upgrade (at least I mean I am not unhappy) as I do not get any trouble while installing nor when I run it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] tedkay:
You need to copy the ZIP folder containg the postcode files to the root of your SD card. If you haven't got an empty tomtom folder in there too (in the root of the SD card) - make one (don't ask!). Soft reset the device, start TT5 and it should be OK. Remember that for some weird (typical) reason when you do 'Navigate To' you have to arrow onto the next page to find the Postcode option. If it gives the road names it's working. :wink:

Why would you want to use landscape mode? You see more of the road ahead of you if you view it protrait. :roll:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] creynish:
landscape

I use landscape as i find it easier just to sit the unit flat, I have not yet bothereed to get a cradle.

Will look to see which cradles are out there now as there were very few when i first looked.

On the post codes i found i can only get the full post code if i copied the zip file to mydocuments/tomtom. it worked without needing a reset.

Problem with 5.21

Hi

I've installed the new version of 5.21 and it is terrible the GPS on the map jumps from one road to another or it showns in between 2 roads it is terrible.

I had to go back to th 5.1 and it work perfettly no problems or jumping GPS.

Anybody else having this problem.

I emailed Tom Tom and they sayed that the 5.21 is not compatable for WM5 yet which I find very strange on they site they say it support WM5 now.

I emailed them again and they give me the same answer.

Anybody knowns how to solved the problem of GPS jumping about the screen.

Ciao

TT5 not working

I would be happy to reach the point where GPS is not connecting !!!

During the TT set up (choose mile/kilo,choose am:pm) and after choosing the Map,the setup just stop and I am thrown out ?

Does anyone know this issue ?

I wouldn't mind buying the legal soft but I am afraid that after buying it and still having the same problem they will say that it has something to do with JJ or WM5

Yep, that happens with TT5.1 too, no different.

It appears to freeze and then continue when the other app closes.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sergeantash:
One major gripe I have with TomTom is its call handling - Sometimes you answer a call and speaker phone doesn't kick in, even having held down the green answer button.

Is there a plugin for TomTom that will perhaps flash up a large Call icon on the screen allowing easy answer, perhaps even an 'Answer On Speakerphone' option?

Also, is there a voice recognition addon for TomTom, allowing voice commands to set postcodes and addresses perhaps?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Anton.Valleyman:
It is a feature as presumably the person you are speaking to does not want to be told "at the end of the road, turn left". If you notice, as you get a call, the mute icon appears. I must say that with 5.2, another good thing is that finally my app doesn't crash when taking a call. Previously, though the TT hands icon remained in the app tray, tapping on it would not take me back into TT itself - soft reset time. Now with 5.2, it actually does!

Ant

PS - landscape is a much better option in my view, as the bottom of the screen is not as cluttered and squashed. The portrait option is deceptive - you don't actually get more "what's up front" visibility it just appears that way.

tomtom 5

Can anyone please help? I have several devices at my work. All qtek 2020i.

All have tomtom 5 installed. Even with latest 5.21 version it still freezes. Are there more patches i need? Strangely enough one of the qtek's runs fine and hasn't crashed yet.

Please help.... my staff are going mad!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] feferosenbaum:

Any other idea ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sergeantash:
Sounds to me like your Map file may be corrupt? Try recopying the map file to your SD card, make sure that you call the directory the name of the map with no spaces, ending in the word '_map' - for example...

sd:\great_britain_plus_map

...also make sure that this folder is in the root of your SD card.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] fingery:
I've found 5.21 to be useless when dealing with calls aswell.

The device no longer crashes and you're able to use the phone app to answer and turn the speakerphone on but after hanging up and closing the phone app to go back to TTN, it hangs my Exec which then requires a warm boot.

Considering the amount of people running this on smartphones/pda's i'm surprised TomTom haven't doen something like the phone menu in use 500/700 Go where you can anwser incoming calls and view your call history.

....mind you, maybe it doesn't surprise me as TT are pretty sh*te at listening to customers and getting the real updates they want implemented.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] andreuroig:
Thanks for the input Fingery. I guess I won't be updating yet.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] GMTRB5:
no problems at all here with 5.21 (with BT gps) .. incoming calls are fine through my BT headset - phone app comes up, once call is answered screen goes back to tomtom with sound muted, as soon as call is ended the sound is re-enabled..

also find voice dialling works well even when in tomtom, just press the button on the headset and the voice screen loads up over tomtom and dials...

anyway, just wanted to say that not sure what the probs are that some people are having but mine is working perfectly ...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] GMTRB5:
just to add to this, to get the BT headset working properly with tomtom I.e. voice commands working ok you need to load tomtom up, and then turn on your headset...that makes the difference between it working or not working on mine ...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Anton.Valleyman:
Same scenario as me...5.21 has seemingly cured the old hanging when minimised or in call issue...works a dream now.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] winnje:
5.2 seems to have stopped Tomtom crashing

:) 5.2 working great. 5.1 worked fine until I upgraded to WM5 (don't bother - in my view its dreadful on BA at the moment) and back to the latest WM3 ROM. 5.2 now seems to be fine- havent tried using with phone yet but BT seems to be more functional.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] prophetuser:
Programs hangs

I have installed 5.21 from TomTom and I get the software to start (and then activation requests). If I install the 'fixed' version from this page (also 5.21) the software hangs and does not launch.

Anything to be done?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Anton.Valleyman:
I tried the "fixed" version before buying it late last year. My experience was that until I overwrote the .exe with the "try-before-buy" version, it would not work...

At what point does it hang? Can you say exactly?

Cheers

Ant
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] prophetuser:
SD card issue?

If you launch the 'fixed' app, the hand appears at the bottom of the Today screen and then it looks like it will start. You have to kill the app and then the device springs back into life.

Interestingly, if I remove the SD card (and the maps on it), the app does start, saying there are no maps. Could this be due to a 'slow' SD card?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] StevePritchard:
Have you got a TomTom folder in "My Documents"? I've seen similar behaviour if that's missing for some reason.

Cheers,

Steve.

7 Digit Postcodes

If I navigate to a Postcode then I can tap in a 7 digit Postcode and off we go. But if I navigate to an Address I can only put in a 5 digit Postcode, before having to specify a road and a ahouse number.

Does anyone know if this can be altered so I always get access to 7 digit Postcodes?

The problem is that if I'm trying to get somewhere, often I can make an informed guess at the road name when I've a choice from a 7 Digit Postcode, but givent he same choice froma 5 digit postcode can leave me a long way away from where I want to be.

Cheers.

PS - I've just spent hours trying to get 7 digit postcodes to work, only to discover they were working the whole time, just not when navigating to an address. Blooody TomTom!!

Hi Guys,

first i have to plead ignorance of the subject,

im a chief of a group of guys who sometimes choose to do something new, which mean im not very technical,

what i need to find out is:

is it possible (and perhaps how) to obtain information from beacon frames, mainly im interested in either of following:

- Timestamp

- Beacon interval

- Target Beacon Transmission Time

or in natural language i need to find out as accurately as it is possible, at what interval rate given AP (either one i am connected to or best, all i can detect) is sending its beacon frame.

i need info about:

a) is this possible,

b) if it is, how can i do this,

c) if its impossible, did anyone really try or just look for tools to do it, and didn't found it

and

if any of this is possible under iOS

regards

Okay so I just discovered an issue with my power button.

I tried to take a screenshot but it just won't work anymore. Volume down + power just locks the phone.

Any idea what could be wrong? All this just happened randomly.
