Having just said all that  lol
I have got the Guam map to work fine. But as I am based in the UK I have downloaded the Great Britain map and am having trouble installing that one.
I have found what appears to be a midi file in the folder, similar to the Guam folder, only this one doesn't have a .mid extention to the file.
I have tried adding one and then following the instructions but nothing  lol
Sorry to be a pest but has anyone successfully installed a UK / British / English map as yet and if so, any change of pointing me in the right direction?
I will forever be in your debt as I am travelling to Manchester at the end of the week and need my sat nav working asap  lol
Many thanks again, Nathan |

Panic over, I have managed to sort it now.
The .mid file in the GB maps is a hidden file for some reason so I had to drag it from Win Rar, trust it was in the Keygen file and then follow the instructions.
I'm a happy bunny now with Tom Tom on my W950i so thanks everyone for the help.
Now to buy a GPS reciever.
Any reccomendations?
Cheers, Nathan.
P.S - Also need an in car cradle / charger for the W950i. Again any suggestions would be great. Thanks guys... |

The Nokia LD-3W works surprisingly well with my p990. Rock solid satellite connections, clean simplistic design and extremely pocketable if you need to navigate while walking around. |

Hi All,
I just got a SE HCB-400 car-kit installed today, and the kit is working fine with my M600.
I’m able to make phone calls while TomTom is running, so there’s no problem in communicate with the GPS receiver and the car-kit at the same time, but I’m not able to get the TomTom voice instructions through the car-kit. I had hoped this was possible so I could get the instructions a bit louder than the phone speaker is able of.
Isn’t this possible?
TIA

I've been searching the forums, and TT's website, but cannot find out if I can save GPS tracks/routes to a dump file...I have to use wildmobile's SmartCom GPS to do it on my P990.
Can I save where I went?
Thanks,
paul

Hi Paul,
I'm not exactly sure what you are asking but any route you that you either plan or have taken can be saved to favourites within Tom Tom itself so you don't constantly have to re enter the address. Also you can use the navigate to contact tab again within Tom Tom. I hope that helps as i am still not sure what you were trying to achieve.
Marc

Marc,
I'd like to save a .gps/x file full of the NEMA readings during my drive. My HP Nav on WM5 can do this, as can most GPS-based programs (GPSTuner, for instance). Basic datalogging.
When I was in Hawaii with the family, for example, I was able to save tracks/routes of everywhere I went (using my WM5 phone) . My son then took the .gpx files, and plotted it on a map and on Google Earth for school.
Thanks in advance,
Paul
