Hello,

I have installed TTN5 to my device rom.

Now I have put the "Florida-Map" in the root directory of my mini-sd card.

When I start TomTom it says there's no maps detected.

I have read some other forum about it but no one has found a solution.

Any ideas please ?

-----------------------------------------------------------

I found the solution for the NO Maps Detected:

Your problem like many others is not your version of TomTom its your versions of the map.

I realise the maps you currently have used to work on your older tomtom version.

Look for complete map sets of the USA. USA Eastern-Map, USA Western-Map...and so on.

DO not ask me or PM me for where to find those files.

Look on file sharing networks or buy them from TomTom

Hope this helps

TomTom Bluetooth GPS Ports WM5 Working Setup 100% Easy Step By Step !

First of all I would like to say thank you to "thereaperman" from Modaco Frums for this great help ! I took this from him and making it accessible to this forum easily for others to use !

Here are his steps:

STEP 1 : INSTALL TOMTOM5

You do this by copying the CAB files from the CDROM (eg F:\PocketPC) to the K-JAM and launch one by one from there with the explorer of the K-JAM

.

You can install voices the same manner by copying the CAB files to the K-JAM (eg from F:\Voice on the CDROM)

STEP 2 : UPGRADE TO V5.1

EDIT: Please use the tomtom official site to obtain the update here

STEP 3 : ACTIVATE THE GPS CONTROL PANEL

Fire up a registry editor (eg http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml )

Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings

Delete the DWORD marked "hide"

Add a DWORD called "Group" and give it the value of "2" (dec)

The GPS panel will now show up in your connection settings.

STEP 4 : INSTALL TOMTOM5

1. Establish a bond with your GPS and select the checkbox for serial access.

2. In BT, select the OUTGOING port to 6.

3. In the GPS control panel, select the GPS program to 0 and make sure that the hardware one, is set to None.

4. Start TT5 and the GPS settings, select another bluetooth GPS, and you will see COM 0 free. Select COM 0 and close TT5.

5. At the GPS control panel again, now select COM 6 (before we set it up at 0).

6. At BT: select OUTGOING port to 0.

7. Back again to GPS control panel and select NONE.

8. Finally start TT5 and it should connect automatically. Wait for a couple of seconds and click the GPS settings and you should see it has connected.

FOR THE Wizard or IF NOT WORKING ON YOUR DEVICE TRY:

6. At BT: select OUTGOING port to WHATEVER NUMBER IS AVAILABLE EXCEPT 6.

7. Back again to GPS control panel and select NONE.

8. Finally start TT5 and

CHANGE GPS BT PORT SETTINGS TO WHATEVER NUMBER YOU CHOSE IN STEP 6

it should connect automatically. Wait for a couple of seconds and click the GPS settings and you should see it has connected.

Hope this helps all of you !!!

1. Create a txt file on your pc called Currentmap.txt

2. In txt file write "\xxxx-xxx\yyyyyyy"

xxxx-xx = name of your sd card as shown in file explore

yyyyyy = name of you current map file as shown in file explorer

3. Save the txt file

4. rename the txt file to Currentmap.dat

5. On you Wizard create a folder in your My Documents folder called TomTom

6. Copy the Currentmap.dat file into this directory

7. Start TTN and hopefully it will see the map

THank you,

But didn't work for my situation. I even tried to take the CureentMap.dat file from my instalation from my JAM but that didn't do it either !

Any other suggestions please ?

This seems to be a problem on multiple forums that no-one has figured out yet.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] optical:
Same problem, here. I got an older map which I used on my Treo 650 which doesn't seem to work with WM5 version. I presume these maps are interchangeable since it's strictly data. Put California-map in the root directory and has the same issue as the OP's.

I've read from another forum that old maps (5.0?) do not work with 5.21. Is that the case? Appreciated if someone can confirm so I don't have to waste my time playing w/ this.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Koksie:
here is how I did it:

On your desktop, launch Notepad.

Type & \Storage Card\New-England_and_Mid-Atlantic-Map\ or whatever the name of your main map folder is on your mini-SD card. Do not forget to add the final backslash and a have a space between the ampersand and the first backslash.

Save the file as CurrentMap.dat. Make sure it doesn't end up as CurrentMap.dat.txt!

Put the file in My Documents/TomTOm on your device.

Worked for me with my Benelux Map.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] thaihugo:
canada and USA maps doesn't work with tomtom 5. You can make it work using bakonl version 5.1 but not higher
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Cheeser:
As far as I know 5.21 only works with the plus maps.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pewe:
I had a WM2003 PDA and had TT V5 on it.

I now have a new device with WM2005 OS and I installed TT V5. TT Worked (including finding maps) but could not see the BT GPS.

I upgraded to TT V5.21 and it worked. It sees all the European Maps.

However to install TT V5 I had to do it manually because the install did not like connecting to the device using Activesync. I did it by creating the required directories on the Phone manually, extracting TTN.cab on the PC, renaming the extracted files and manually copying them to the Phone. The TT V5.21 installed the upgrade OK over Activesync.

If anyone wants the full instructions on how I did it I will post them.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ampi:
Please provide instructions!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pewe:
OK - Heres what I did - please note that this is the exact process I followed (twice) and it worked for me. If it doesn't work for you I'm not sure what you can do. But I used TT V5 and the UK/France/Italy/European Maps that came with it.

--------------------------------------------------

step 1 : INSTALL TOMTOM5 Manually

On the PC, Extract the files from within the cab ttn, (its in the PocketPC directory of the install CD.)

Rename 000file0.001 to dat.chk

Rename 000file1.002 to TomTom Navigator.exe

Rename 000file2.003 to CurrentMap.dat

Create a folder in on the device in 'my device-> Program files->' and call it Navigator - place data.chk and TomTom Navigator.exe in here.

Create another folder in 'my docs' called tomtom and place remaining file CurrentMap.dat in here.

For voices I only installed a 'celebrity voice' so I put the files for it in a directory I created called 'voices' in 'my device'.

If you have them OK, if not you will have to get them from a previous install - or create your own.

Now copy the Map Directory of your choice from your TT CD to your Storage Card.

step 2 : SETUP GPS DEVICE

1. Pair your device with your GPS BT unit and select the checkbox for serial access.

2. In the COM PORTS setting for the BT, select 'New Outgoing Port' and for the BT GPS unit set it to 7

Now launch TT and hopefully it will start and go through the install process. When you get to the point where it asks you to select the GPS device - select 'Another bluetooth GPS', and you will be asked to select the Port. If you see COM 7 free - select it. (If not - mine didn't -, select another port to get through the startup, but when TT starts it will report no GPS device found.)

If you did not see COM 7 when you ran TT5, then the chances are you need to upgrade to V5.21 and once upgraded start TT and go to 'Change preferences' - 'GPS Status' and configure the GPS unit again when COM 7 should appear (mine did).

The upgrade also added a standard voice which was not there before.

------------------------------------------

Good Luck
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] EvilTwin:
On my iPAQ i origionally loaded TTN v3 with all the associated maps. When TomTom announced the upgrade to TTN v5 i took the oppertunity (All the maps of western europe for £60 seemed to be a bargain). After updating to version 5.0 I have been using it ever since. A few months ago i updated it to v5.21, (essentially its a pair of cab files that do all the upgrading to 5.21) this only updates the software, and does not alter the maps in any way.

TomTom nav v5 maps are all similar, the plus maps just contain newer information (like newly built roads). What TTN5 will not do is read the maps from earlier versions of TTN, like v3 or v2 maps.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] optical:
any more ideas? Played around with this for long time and can't still get it to load the NA map. Keep getting that "Maps not found' error when I start the program.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pewe:
NA map?

I assume thats North America.

Have you tried any others?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] optical:
No. I figure it should not make any difference and I only have the USA map. I am very frustrated at this as GPS is a big function I need on my MDA.

Would manual install help in my situation?

My install was very straight forward. This is what I did on my install, perhaps someone can point out on what I did wrong

1. Just ran the TTN 5.21 and installed the TomTom and Navigator both on minSD.

2. copied my California-map folder into Storage Card\California-map\ directory

3. Modified the currentmap.dat file to say "& \Storage Card\Californai-Map\

4. Ran the damn TTN and got that maps not found error.

What am I doing wrong? Please help.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nmonger:
It sounds like you have done all the right things, but the only other thing I can suggest is that your TTN software has not been activated to accept all maps. There is a patch you can use which "opens" your software to use all maps.

PM me for more info

Re: Tomtom Navigator 5.21 WM5 - No Maps Detected

I have noticed this too (with 5.21 only) . What worked for me was to put another map (besides the not-detected one) on the device. THEN both will be detected. I believe this is an activation issue somewhere in the s/w.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lyallb:
I have just installed TomTom and was getting the map not found error, performed the procedure above, but it didnt work first of all, this is what i had to do to get TomTom working and find the maps.

1. Create the folder TomTom under My documents on the phone (note TomTom folder created with capital T's)

2. Create the file Currentmap.dat with the following entry

& \Storage Card\TomTom\Great_Britain-Map

and copied it to the My documents\TomTom folder i created above

3. Copy the Great_Britain-Map directory that is on the storage card\TomTom directory to the ROOT of the storage card...!! THIS is the what made it work. :D

You may now remove the Great_Britain-Map folder in the TomTom directory on the storage card to save space.

A combination of creating the Currentmap.dat file (even though it points to a folder i have removed!!!!) and copying the map folder to the root of the storage card worked.

Without the currentmap.dat, tomtom would just hang on me and have to perform a soft reset.

I hope this helps, thanks to this thread i managed to get TT working on my wizard, cheers baz
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] thaihugo:
Funny how you can go on about a subject when the answer is alreeady given in the tread. So maybe I wasn't clear enough. I'll explain better now:

Tomtom 5.21 can read all maps provided by tomtom, as long as they are for the version 5

Patched version of tomtom can read v5 maps too, but only if you put two of them at the root of your SD card. It means two maps that are normaly reconised by tomtom 5 (europe and australia mainly). People complaining about not finding a single map are using an illegal version.

The US maps floating around on p2p are v4 maps. They are not valid for tomtom v5. Maybe the latest "whole US in one map" is compatible, but the splitted one, with one folder for each state, is a v4 map.

The legal version of tomtom v5 cannot read v4 maps. If you put one v5 and one v4 map in your SD card, the patched version will not work because it will only find one map at the root.

The only patched version able to see the v4 maps are (to my knowledge) the bakonl version for v5 and v5.10. This version will hang if you use POI in the "plus" version maps available for most european contry. You will have to choose you executable depending on your maps.

All other problems, described in the previous posts, are for the first time setup. They just help getting the program running for the first time.

SO to answer clearly to the first poster: get a patched version 5.10 by backonl, and don't use it with "plus" version maps. If you want to use them, switch to patched 5.21
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nmonger:
and apologies for those that contacted me for the file that makes the maps recognised. I checked to see if I still had it, and I have lost it since i reloaded my PC. :(
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] magnusbaron:
Hey I still have the problem.

I have put the Benelux map on my storage card and the Florida map too.

Only the Benelux one gets detected.

this is my CurrentMap.dat that is the My Documents\TomTom folder

& \Storage Card\Benelux-Map\

& \Storage Card\Florida-Map\

I have the Bakonl 5.21 release.

Hope someone can find a solution !

Thanks you
[HTC One X+] buekkes:
Hi guys,

I'm running an international HOX+ with unlocked HBOOT-1.72.0000 plus an unrooted 4.2.2 stock ROM. Unfortunately, I messed up to backup the stock ROM in recovery mode before rooting the phone. After rooting, I encrpyted the whole device.

To my best understanding, TWRP (here version 2.6.3.0) supports handling of encrypted filesystems. After launching recovery mode the log anyway contains "Unable to mount '/data'" and I'm not able to perform any operation on the filesystem. Also any attempt of manually mounting fails.

For the moment being, that's not a problem, since everything runs smoothly. In the future, anyway, I might envisage to perform an OTA-update (if there should be a stock ROM 4.3) or an update to cyanomodgen 10.2. But after consulting various posts here, I'm in doubt, if things would indeed work out as expected. Can you give hints how to proceed with the three subsequent issues?

Update via OTA

==============

As far as I know, running updates via ota requires a (re-)locked bootloader and a stock recovery partition to be installed.

Is the relock really mandatory? If yes, I'd assume "adb oem lock" is appropriate to tackle it.

For the stock recovery, I've found an image here at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37203749&postcount=177

Would it be sufficient to flash this recovery.img via fastboot to allow launching the regular OTA update on the encrypted system afterwards?

Update to custom ROM

====================

Since obviously neither TWRP nor CWM Recovery are able to deal with the encrypted data partition (yet), installation of a different ROM requires a workaround. I read that mounting a tmpfs to /sdcard and proceeding via sideload is feasible to apply patches from TWRP in case of an encrypted device. Nonetheless, is such a proceeding also reasonable to flash a custom ROM in the given situation?

Factory Reset

=============

If the latter approach fails, the path might lead via factory reset, first. I've stumbled upon this discussion: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2139163

Should I expect any problems to carry out a factory reset either directly from the boot menu or from TWRP?

Thanks for your hints in advance!

best regards,

Thorsten

Hey man,

I'd say stock roms (both gingerbread and ICS), IZS, and probably Zeus v6/v7.

You can also try CM10 with LG Camera ported for CM10, but sometimes the camera app stops, so I would't consider it as stable. And it records at about 25fps@720p, not 30fps.

Thanks for reply von Manfraka

Now, I'm using IZS v2. And video recording is laggy. I don't know if I'm the only case & I should reflash it or It's a common issue?? So at what FPS should video recording be in IZS??

[General Questions and Answers] jmcook79:
I couldn't find anything in the forums about this but it seems to be a widespread problem with the Centura. There are threads about it at phandroid.com as well as the area51 forums. I'll just paste the email I sent to Straight Talk and Samsung to explain what the problem is. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Here's the email:

Hello,

I'm just writing to let you know about the time problem with the Samsung Galaxy Centura. Sometimes it will set the time back 5 or 6 hours depending on the time zone. For me, un-checking auto date and time as well as time zone and then checking them back fixes the problem. My wife's fixed itself within 10 minutes. However, others aren't so lucky. It's only happened to me twice but it is very widespread and happens to some people several times a week. It's all over several forums and no one has found a fix yet. I just thought that the more people let you know about it, the better the chance is for a fix.
[General Questions and Answers] jmcook79:
Over on androidforums.com, someone wiped their system cache in recovery mode and the time problem didn't come back for 3 weeks. I did the same and so far I haven't had the time problem and I've also noticed that the lag I was experiencing with the notification bar is completely gone. I'm going to start clearing the cache weekly just to see if the time problem or notification lag comes back. If it doesn't I think we may have found a workaround.

I contacted straight talk corporate and they told me to un-check the auto time and time zone settings, reboot the phone, clear the system cache, or do a complete system restore. IMO if clearing the system cache regularly eliminates the issue it's the most simple solution since it may stop the issue before it has a chance to happen. Only time will tell.

If you can't encounter the problem, backup your apps/data (for example using titanium backup) and wipe and reflash the rom. This should definitely work ;)

You need the special KitKat recovery to install a 4.4.2 ROM. Look in the first post of the OmniRom thread or the seventh post of the Official CM thread for that recovery. You need to be on the latest JB booloader: 10.6.1.15 and above.
