Advices on the Shift - Shift General

Hey everybody,
I need some tech information on the shift before I go out and buy one.
1 is it possible to install WM software on it like PI8 Wallet etc etc?
2 Would it be possible to run Igo8 navigation software on the device as while?
3 Can I make phone call from it?
4 If you install software on the device for WM where can you install it on the Hard Drive or the SD card?
5 While an SD Card of 32Gb work on this device?
Thank you for any advice you can give me.
Ciao
Gigino

It is possible when you have liberated SnapVue, or you can flash it with a liberated rom. I don't know about PI8 Wallet, but everything depends on the size of the application.. the shift has too few space to install many programs. But it would be better with time

It is possible but with the constraint that Windows have to be running. You can use IGO8 PC with GPS GATE application to share GPS from WM to Vista or you can use IGO8 but you need to create a network share between vista and WM to get space in WM.

you can actually make phone call with a modified rom but you will not have the voice working (it means you can hear the other but he will not hear you).
but this should be ok in a week or 2.

currently, there are no storage solution for WM.. except if you use network sharing with Vista there you can write on HD but not on SD.

Yes, Koala is right. I tested 16 SDHC and it works flawlessly. I have not tested the 32GB, so I think it should work in my opinion.

Hi, Can you help me understand please. SPB Mobile Shell, you say works on the Shift...has it been specially written for the Shift, or are you saying any PPC software, will work equally as well on the Shift? I thought the software had to address the different screen sizes of various devices..no?
Thanks in advance.
BTW...I onw a Shift, so i'm dying to know this.

you must try to install different programs, due to the poor memory of the wm side i did not try to install many programs.
opera works fine like on my kaiser, office too, some little game and sprite backup, spbackup, profimail also works well like on the kaiser. others i don't know.
try and try..

the shift has a larger screen but the software does not have to be rewritten for smaller or larger screens.

so this driver maybe usefull if i install new vista "installation"? right?
does it work with XP?
I tested it under Winxp tablet, it doesn't work. Maybe the driver is coming from Raon, It looks using the same SD wifi card with shift, but need specical SD driver updating before install this driver, may download and read it's English manual at it's website.
i guess we will have to wait for the rest of the drivers.
Not working?

Since the version 5 of TomTom for PDA, this is the normal way to work when a call comes to the PDA. After you finish the call, the focus goes to the TomTom again, so talk quickly

If you use the 7.541 before this new one, install only the CAB posted here

If you was using previous version, you need to actualize your license infor on your maps (don't ask me how).

What are the differences with this new version ?
Is it worth the hassle or is it just minor revisions to support new devices

TomTom Navigator 6

Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, but I couldn't dig it out.
I have fully licensed Navigator 6 software, and TT has promised be a new activation code after I have transferred to my HD2 from my TyTn II.
I can get the TT6 cabs onto my HD2 and get the HD2 recognized by TT Home 1.5. But when TT installs, it throws up a configuration screen that is obviously in the wrong screen resolution and conflicts with the HTC operating system overlay.
Can anyone offer an work around, since I see that some have obviously overcome the problem already?
Stephen
My researches continue. It seems no-one has ever successfully run TTN6 on the HD2. It would in theory be possible if the apps to lower the screen resolution would work with WM 6.5; but they don't
Meanwhile TomTom has discontinued sale of TTN7 Windows, although it remains available for the iPhone.

sorry mate if you are referring to tomtom version 6.000, i have it on my HD2 nd it is working perfectly, i had it on my HTC Diamond and Diamond2. I have it installed on my sd card
Is the screen resolution ok? I can't get the set-up screen in the correct resolution after firing up the cab and installing successfully off the SD card. Did you just put the old SD card from the Diamond 2 into the HD2?

all working good...did not have to do anything...just installed the cab on the sd card and opened the application and located the maps et voila
NB: I used the same micro sd that i used to have in my Diamond 2 and the cab was on it
you have a private message...check it out
Stephen, I have exactly the same problem. If you get this to work please let me know how
Thanks
gdayhtc was able to resolve the problem for me. It is obviously a question of some cabs working and some not. The cabs on my TomTom DVD did not. I have tested TT6 today: it worked fine. Will go to landscape when the HD2 is tilted (after a tweak) and does not interfere with bluetooth.
Could you post the cab you are using now?
Please pass your request to ericjennings.

Hello, I see you have found a way to get TomTom 6 to work with WM 6.5. I'd like to get it to run properly on my lg expo. It runs in landscape with the keyboard out but I have 3 panels side by side of the same screen. Forget about it in portrait—the screen is a garbled and smushed at the top of the lg screen. I've tried both cabs ttn.cab & ttn2003.cab found on my original dvd. Please help. Thanks

i cant see any links for the Tomtom Navigator 6 cab file so im assuming its being sent directly to folks.
i have lost my sd card i used on my qtek 9100 but still have the box including my product code for the ttn6. could anyone help me out by telling me where i will find a working cab file for ttn 6?
Many thanks in advance.

You need to install WVGAFIX4 in your window mobile 6.5 device. Check out the forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455974 .
Once installed then install the TTN 6 as normal BUT run the WVGAFIX4 before running the TTN 6 in your mobile.

You need the files to place on the sd card ( you unrar the Motonav folder then copy to the root of the sd card, paste the map on the content/map folder, and you are set ).
You can probably find the files on the same place you found the .apk.. If not, google it ( I cant tell the link to it cuz xda isnt a fan of warez ).
[]`s
I installed the APK, started the app and it wrote "Installing Motonav" for a while and then quits.
Anyone got this working?
I'm using Igo Motonav on my HD2 Shubcraft. On the first boot it said installing then froze up. Each subsequent time it has worked fine.
I chose Motonav over IGO Myway because Motonav supports the full 480x800 resolution of this device.
Motonav uses the same .fbl maps as other IGO navigation software. I installed the .apk and filled in the content folder with maps from the Windows mobile version of Igo. The maps from IGO myway will also work with Motonav.
This is a very good solution for me because I can use navigation without mobile data charges. The maps are all individual files for each state. I like this because I can just add the states that I need so it takes up far less space on my sd card.
