I installed TomTom6 on my universal, replacing tomtom 5 and I can't really say I am impressed. It certainly looks more colourful, and seems to start up faster, but as of new features, it is rather disappointing.

I also noticed it is slower overall, the maps are a little jumpy, especially in towns and cities. The UK maps seem more complete, I noticed a new bypass has finally appeared.

One thing that disappointed me is the lack of Text To Speech which is used on the new TomTom GO 910. Why not include this, this alone would make an upgrade worth it?

One feature I did like was that is shows you clearly whether a road goes over, under or across another road, so no more thinking you can turn left onto a road which turns out to be a bridge over another road. They also improved some of the graphics, e.g. The compass is bigger on VGA screens and there are gradients everywhere.

There is supposed to be a speeding feature, but I can't get this to work.

As for rotation, you need to rotate the display before you launch TomTom and then it works. It is a step back in my opinion, but once you get used to it, it is okay.

This should of been a free update, it does not justify the cost of upgrading TomTom 5.21 to this.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] uziel171:
Hence the reason why im sure most people who've got it already haven't paid for it!! :D

As for the speeding thing, you need to go to status bar preferences and select "speed"

Then it will show it as a (For example) 37/60

If you were doing 37mph on a 60mph road. Goes a bit funny when going under/over bridges & overpasses, but apart from that its a useful feature.

WM5 or WM2003SE?

Guys,

Does TTN6 need WM5 to work? I have TTN6 on an SD card but I get the 'Not valid WinCE file' error when I try to install... I am currently back to WM2003SE on my BA (Yes! I know this is a Uni thread!!) and it won't install... may have to find an internet connection out here in Germany to download a ROM for WM5...

Any help would be appreciated.

Anyone else having the problem where it won't store any favorites?

I entered loads in, next time I came to use it, none were there.

Just tried one, quit, and went back in, and it's gone also.

:(

EDIT: Stupid me, my friend gave it to me on a CD, so the files were all write protected when I copied them onto my SD card.

TOMTOM 6 on XDA11i - Bluetooth Problems!

:? :? :? Just a notification of some strange happenings with bluetooth handsfree -

I have been having problems with connecting the BT handsfree Earpiece since installing TT6 - have tried uninstalling it, and then BT handsfree works fine - it also works fine with TT5.21. - reinstalled TT6 and managed (with help) to get it all working from the 512MB SD card ( just 2 main folders on there:- GB plus Western Europe main roads map & Program Files with everything else in there),

everything was working Ok until I tried to connect to tomtom for a traffic update via GPRS, - I kept getting a message saying couldn't connect to server and to check GPRS settings on device or soft reset, which i did and re inserted all the GPRS settings.

Then I could connect via GPRS to get traffic updates - but it was impossible to connect the BT handsfree again. Strange ain't it !!

I don't have any problems with the bluetooth GPS which is a Globalsat 339.

Apparently the version of TT6 that is available at the moment is only a pre-release and so has quite a few bugs in it - best to wait until the retail version is available. - when it is working I have found it to be really good - so without the bugs it should be great.

If anybody has any ideas on fixing this problem, let me have your input, i'm willing to give it a go, but i'm not very technical so need simple instructions. :wink: cheers all!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] dannyoneill:
Its not worth the cost to upgrade from v5.21. Its changes are mostly cosmetic and while the tomtom buddies is a nice touch, its not really going to be used by most.

I have links and instructions for a UK easy setup, Just run the installer either on your PC via activesync or directly on your device and thats it, installed and ready to go (after you add your map)

Total size on SD card around 200mb including map, takes up the same ammount of ram to run.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] claudioita:
Hi!

I can't transfer the installer on my Exec. I don't have 30mbyte available on main memory.

So I transfer the program (tomtom6.exe) on the SD card and launch the program from there.

Now tomtom6 is installed and working (although it says no maps installed). I need to install Map of Italy. The European map (1 Gbyte something) is too much for my SD card (1Gbyte half full) , How can I install only portion map (Italian map)?

Thanks!!

TOMTOM 6 Bluetooth Problems

I think i've solved the connection problem(with help from anonymous) :wink: I Hope this helps someone else with similar problems. Downloaded Broadcom 3900 cab from wiki site/Blue Angel, to overwrite files already installed on my XDA11i - in case any were corrupt, this didn't make any difference. Then downloaded A2DP cab from Alpine Upgrading forum - put on to SD card - run it on XDA - soft reset - set up pairing with Headset - at first didn't seem to work but looked in active connections and icon was there tapped status and it was connected :lol: - icon showing on top bar, tried turning on and off few times - made phone call - started up tomtom 6 - all seems to be working Ok. I haven't tried another soft reset yet as that was where the trouble started before - so far so good - I now have a fully working XDA11i with tomtom 6, all the maps and whistles and bells and connectivity to my BT Headset I hope this helps if you are having bluetooth headset problems, try A2DP. PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME FOR TOMTOM 6 LINKS THEY ARE OUT THERE - SEEK AND YOU SHALL FIND!

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avihay1989:
Hello Everyone

i have the note 3 model n9005

And I'm on android Version 4.4.2

I read about all the knox

I wanted to ask a few questions before I do root as I had always for my previous device

* If I continue to receive software updates or do I have to do it manually ?

* If you will not have warranty in any way?

* If this matter with a build version is for root ?

* I heard something about if the bootloader unloacked and how to check it if it is locked then it is a problem

* And be careful not to install version is lower than that now because it can cause break

many thanks for the one who help or read it

best regards avihay
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bladehawk:
1. OTA Updates generally won't work but you can usually install manually

2. Some people have gotten service others have had issues. You can get service, but you may be charged for it.

3. If you have a locked bootloader (ATT, Verizon) then you may have issues. I refuse to get a phone with a locked bootloader so I can't answer this.

4.It's based on your carrier and the version of the phone you have. T-Mobile is unlocked, some others aren't

5. The bootloader, once on 4.4.2 cannot be set back to 4.3 from what I understand, but it may be possible, I never wanted to downgrade.

Hope this helps
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avihay1989:
Thanks for your time and answers

My device does not come from the store cellular operators so that means it is not bootloader Locked?

*or any way to cheak it, i am so wanted to root my phone
[General Questions and Answers] VoiceScripter:
I'm surprised to learn that we must keep our eyes on the tablet while clumsily tapping even when the tablet is connected to a big display.

Instead of plugging a mouse into the touchpad (I guess that's the current workaround), why not turn the tablet into a touchpad when mirroring the display of the tablet on a large screen? With that setup, the tablet display wouldn't actually be mirrored, the big display would look like a desktop computer display with a pointer floating around on it. Also, the virtual touchpad on the tablet could be resizable so that you could simultaneously show a virtual keyboard (neither of which would show on the big display). Or there could be a spot on the tablet display tapped to switch between virtual keyboard and touchpad. Again, neither showing up on the big display.

Let me know if I'm not being clear enough. This has nothing to do with simply mirroring the tablet display to a monitor/TV, I know that can be done through MHL and HDMI stuff. Also, it has nothing to do with using the tablet as a touchpad for another computer. The only components are the tablet and the big display (monitor or TV).

And of course if it's already been done, please let me know.
[General Questions and Answers] VoiceScripter:
The simplest of implementations...

The big display would mirror the tablet display. The tablet would show a tiny pointer. How small doesn't matter because you won't be looking at the tablet. The pointer location would correspond to the current pointer location as shown by "developer options" on anAndroid. That pointer would be driven by touch. That should be easy enough, the only difference is that a relative pointer position would be used instead of current finger point position.

Apparently 99% of the programming for this stuff is already done on Android tablets. Probably also on iPads or whatever. It would just need a GUI switch and to make a few tiny adjustments when connected to a monitor.
[General Questions and Answers] VoiceScripter:
Anybody connect their tablet to a large monitor? Enjoy fumbling around on the tablet when you could be using precise pointer control? Think this might help for stuff like browsing?

Anybody?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistr_e:
Update v5.3.1316M of Google Play Music introduced using external storage for your music data. You go into Settings > Downloading > Storage Location and it will show external storage if you have it. It works on many devices with SD card slots like the S4.

I have a USB key over OTG with my Nexus. Using Stickmount or the latest ES File Explorer; the key mounts, I see it at /data/media/0/usbStorage/sda1/, /sdcard/usbStorage/sda1 and /storage/sda1, I can read and write files, it doesn't show up under Settings > Storage, and I can't select it in Google Play Music. I'm assuming something like the Meenova would show the exact same issue.

Anyone know why this is a Nexus issue? Anyone know where the sdcard is mounted on working devices? Has anyone used a ROM that works with Google Music and OTG?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It's because stickmount mounts it in sdcard. You need a rom or Kernel with automount built in.

Just a hypothetical question because I have been fortunate enough to have never hard bricked my phone. I've just been wondering if one could either access the chip through JTAG and reset it, or replace the chip entirely. Then, if that were possible, then could I go back to an unlocked bootloader too?

I know it's a BGA chip so I would need a reflow oven but I do electronics repair and I'm getting one soon anyway.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absoluteparanoia:
What is the typical free space that I should find available in my Note 3 (32gb)? Is 25gb only normal?

It's rooted and running safestrap but otherwise is stock.

ES file explorer SD card analyst says that I have 25gb stock space available and that I'm using 8 gb for a remainder of 17gb. Is this typical? That seems like a large amount to reserve for what I assume is the system. Using the 'Drives' app I show that system is using only 2.1gb with 555 mb free. It also shows that my internal storage has two large "files" that are maybe backup partitions called "win001" and "win000".
[Nexus 5 General] Nathan-NL:
Hello everyone!

I am new on this Nexus 5 subforum, but maybe a few people recognize me from the Nexus 4 subforum.

My Android adventure started with the HTC ChaCha which was a fun, little phone, but nothing in comparison with the Nexus 4 I got after it. I was very impressed and it convinced me of Android's power and functionality. Now today I started using my new Nexus 5 and I might share some experiences I will have with it.

So far, I'm overall quiet happy with the build quality. I can't say it's perfect and I don't get why the USB charging cable that comes with it by design scrapes the unit, but it's not a very big issue. (Still I don't get why LG designed it like this, you buy a new device and right away it gets damaged by it's own charging cable) The back feels nice, soft and it doesn't feel Samsung cheap. Power button and volume button could have had a bit tighter fit. And the front camera is not perfectly centered. In person the camera and letters on the back are actually pretty nice. But the ring around the camera collects dust immediately.

Photo quality is good enough for a mobile phone for me. For real photos I use my dedicated camera and I would do the same if the pictures were better. (iPhone-like)

Sound is not as bad as I expected. The little speaker actually goes pretty loud, but with a very slight hint of distortion. (Emphasis: very slight, almost non-exist)

I haven't made any calls with it yet, but I will add this later. The call quality of the Nexus 4 is one of the reasons I upgraded. The buzz(!) and overall not very impressive.

Battery life is the other reason and I hope I will not be too disappointed. But the rumors of the Moto X + 1 having a ridiculously large screen pushed me over the edge.

The build quality is not perfect. There are little imperfections, but it's to be expected at this price point and the unit doesn't feel cheap when using it. Vibration feels/sounds a bit odd to me, but it's not bad per se.

Other new Nexus 5 owners are welcome to share their experiences in this thread as well.

If the rumours aren't true, then my preference for the next Nexus phone would be to have HTC as manufacturer. Second choice: Sony.

Nexus phone made of aluminium and with stereo front speakers? Yes, please. But please leave the ultrapixels for the HTC premium phones, lol!

I didn't read these things directly here myself. Developers are users of this phone as well, so I thought it was appropriate.

Obviously this hasn't anything to do with the software/performance of the phone.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ERICTHK:
Hi all, just want to share some simple workaround on how to achieve MHL lag free gaming.

(Some of you might have already know how to do this, but this simple info will still benefits other users)

I search the forum & found little information on this topic, hence I decided to write one myself :fingers-crossed:

Our Z Ultra use MHL 1 (Not MHL 2 or 3) & when I first connect it to my TV, the display is being fixed at: 1080/24p

At 24 frames per second, I can watch movies & videos without issue. But I noticed a minor lag when I open apps & the whole phone UI just feels slow....

Things get really worse, when I try to play games via MHL output on my TV (I use dualshock 3 controller + sixaxis app)

The lag is killing me & made most 60FPS games unplayable, I even tried 30FPS games & still notice a minor input lag.

For gaming, basically we need 60FPS output, 24 or 30 FPS is not smooth enough.

With some simple tweaks, we can force the Z Ultra to output 720p at 60FPS (We sacrifice the 1080p display quality in order to achieve a smoother 720p output)

First, you need to access the service menu by dialing *#*#service#*#*

After that, select Service tests, scroll down to TV-Out Test & select it

Now connect your phone to your TV via MHL cable/adapter & make sure that it's properly connected.

select Video format

There are a few options to choose from, for gaming we need 60FPS so we choose 1280x720p@60

After that, disconnect the MHL adapter from your phone & then reconnect it again.

The phone should now output 720p at 60FPS to your TV.

Note: If you restart or shutdown your phone, you will need to access service menu & do this simple workaround again.

This should work with other Xperia models as well, as long as you are able to access the service menu & change those settings.

Hope the above info helps ;)

UPDATE: I notice my MHL adapter (3rd party) stops charging the phone after I change the TV output resolution.

If your adapter is doing the same thing, just disconnect it from your phone.

Plug in your microUSB wall charger & let it charge for around 30 seconds.

After that, connect your MHL adapter again to your phone, the problem should be gone.
