Hi I have an issue with Copilot 8 and havent managed to find a thread in here that mentions the issue I have.
I have the following versions
OS 5.2.21869
Manilla 2.5.19211619.0
ROM 1.48.405.2 WWE
Radio 2.05.51.05_2
I replaced the original 2GB SD card with an 8GB, and used the 2gb card in my daughters Nintendo DS, blatting everything on it.
Now I fancy trying Copilot, and whilst I can run the app, I cannot download any maps as it thinks I am in Africa (or only have permission to download those maps).
This is the same for Copilot Central and on the device, if i try to download anything else it just says "Error downloading files", for the African one it gives me a second screen asking me to confirm.
Am I missing something here? Or is it because I deleted the "trial" version maps on my SD card?
I have 15 days left on the trial to fix this :-S
Hope someone has had the same issue??

You need to get in touch with CoPilot support for help with this. They're a bit slow I'm afraid, so don't hold your breath.

Ok will do, not exactly a glowing start to the relationship before parting with £26 for their product is it
May be you should start making a move over there sorry had to say that. Good luck with the problem

Very true, but I think it's worth it. I love CoPilot and for £26 you can't really complain can you!
Good luck mate

Agreed. However I bought CP7 early last year (I think) and it cost me nearly £60! I wrote to them recently asking if I could transfer my licence across rather than pay £26 for a new package when CP7 is perfecly adequate and they refused.
Fair do's I suppose, as they have got to make some money somewhere but disappointed nevertheless. The "get in lane" improvements in CP8 are worth it as I use this system in my car. However seeing that I have not yet had the full benefit out of the package I paid for last year I can't justify the extra expense and then have a whole package lying around doing nothing.
Shame.

I think they are getting confused somewhere!
There is absolutely nothing to prevent you cancelling the license on one device then reactivating it on another one. The only thing they won't do, and this maybe where the confusion arose, is to transfer a license between platforms (WM -> Apple/Andoid and vice versa)
If you still have CPL on the original device, you can go into the Licensing screen and select to deactivate it. This needs an internet connection. Once deactivated, install the program on the new device and go through the online activation. If that doesn't work, complain again to ALK. There is no compulsion to upgrade to relicense the program.
Had the same issue with my trial. CoPilot sent me this link and it says just to copy the copilot folder to the memory card.

That's the maps - not the application. We're looking for an installer for the app.
Worth keeping a note of this though - thanks
That's funny. My CoPilot Central 2.0 thinks I'm in Africa, too. When I used the KML-export function of my GPS-Tracks, that I had no use for, the only coordinates the KML-file contained were two hundred miles off the coast of Ghana in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

Thats the link that got mine working, I still had the ROM version loaded on my HD2.
Now I can see what the product is like, the screenshots look pretty nice. Ive got an inbuilt satnav in the car, but for £26 I'd be tempted to get this as a walking aid.

Same here, I have factory fitted satnav in the car but I got co-pilot after the trial ended, as you say if you just use it as a walking aid, you can't go wrong for £26.

Neil,
Thanks for the heads up. To be honest ALK make a great product but their Customer Service is diabolical. Rather than spend hours exchanging increasingly meaningless messages with them in that fixed format template format they are so fond of using which is so irritating and tells you absolutely nothing, I simply ditched all the CP8 folders on my device (bar the rom files which I can't move) and installed my paid for CP7.
Saves a whole load of hassle, from my perspective, and it works just fine.

Right anyone got any idea how to make the poxy Copilot Central software think i am in Europe? That still insists i am in Africa.... lord above, one step forward, two steps back and all that!!

Long shot but if you are trying to access CP Central from a PC, why don't you set-up a proxy server or use some other method to "hide" your IP address which might help solve the problem?
I have never done this for this purpose so it's unusual for me to recommend an action I have not tried myself; however if no one else has a better answer and you can't get CP Support to help then might be worth a go?

Don't bother with the Copilot support "contact form". It's totally useless, and they'll probably never reply. Instead send a "tweet" to http://twitter.com/copilotsupport/ or http://twitter.com/copilotlive/. That usually gets an answer within 24 hours.

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is any freeware version of speed camera warning software for the UK, compatible with TOMTOM3. I know its a longshot but what the hell!
Anyway if not, what is the cheapest/best one available.
Your experiences please.
Thanks

Not tried it until now, but i'm nearly 100% sure, that they are available via synchronisation. It workes fine for me. You can not download them manualy and install them to your device. You have to synchronize the,. So you're able to keep them easy uptodate.
Try it out. It's for free.
Stefan
Are you saying that download comes with them?? Ie the UK ones?
Try www.pocketgps.co.uk, click on speed cameras on the left and you'll get to a database of all UK cameras. I use it with POIWarner, which was very cheap and very good
Anyone know where you can get free POI's from? I know, I'm a cheapskate.
Sorry, Gotta feed the kids!
I NEED to do this...
Don't speed, so you don't need a warner ;-)
I know, this help's a lot.
I completely agree with you.
I have been driving for 10 years. No points and no collisions! Thank God!
However, i frequently have to drive late at night , when the roads are empty. Sometimes I may go 35 when the speed is 30!
A warning system would be good!

Pretty good i think (personally). I used to have a snooper S6-r neo and pay for the updates and that wasn't better!
We have a little over 3000 camera sites plus red light cameras and mobile locations.
Unlike the majority of other Safety Camera databases we still maintain a human input to weed out duplicates and erronous submissions.
The actual number of camera locations in the UK has never been revealed, it was rumoured to be 5000 but I'm reliably told that it's nearer 4000 physival locations with mobile sites making up the remainder.

Griffog, sorry, its probably my fault for raising this post. Unfortunately I am not a moderator and hence cannot remove it ,thought I already found it and did download it from your website yesterday.
While you are here... :wink: On the site it says,
"Email us either your OV2 file or ASC file and we will work out which cameras we don't have and which cameras we do have. Please be careful when adding cameras not to add false ones"
How do I actually update the ov2 file. I am running TT3 with Checkpoint.
There is a new Truvelo round the corner from me and would like to add it in the database.

I wonder what the upgrade price wil be.....
I doubt it will be cheap.. Upgrade price from navigator 4 to Navigator 5 was almost as much as buying all over again. So I went from my legit Nav4 to 'Ahem' liberated Navigator 5

do you have any issues with Iguidance V3 on the wizard? i am currently using v2, i went and uninstalled then installed v3 and loaded new maps, however it will only work in landscape mode, if i close the keyboard to run this in portrait mode then it shuts down. Same thing if i just try to run it after a reboot in portrait mode...
This thread is about TomTom v6 not about iguidance or any other navigationsoftware, let's keep this thread alive for Tommy
No need for extra post regarding other software, there will be alot of posts coming to us for the next few day's, weeks or even months 8)

My friend HDJ :roll: tells me this works fine on the Wizard
has anyone got this downloaded yet? Tried it?
If so can they PM me please.
I inserted my HTC 7500 CD in my PC and I only see 4 files in it. Only one of them is related to Tomtom. It's named "Installer_X7500_ttn_6_030_8320_HTCITA_20070227.exe" and is 5.4MB big.
WHERE ARE THE MAPS?!?
Have you tried looking on the floor to see if they fell out?
First, that is the installer......install it! Second, go to Tom Tom's website and activate it! Third, download your 1 free map........yup, only 1 and it is a city map only! Fourth, go buy a copy of T/T and get the rest of the maps!
If you already have a licensed copy, they will activate it over the phone for you.
Hope this helps..........Later

I am trying to download the free map, but TomTom keeps defaulting to Fresno, CA. How can I switch the default to a city in New Jersey? If the map is free, I would like to have my home town. I tried tampering with the URL address, but it keeps going back to Fresno, CA

If your unit is a new one,then you should be able to d/l any single map. If it is a used or "open box" item,then maybe it has already been used up by someone in California. You can only use it once.

I too bought mine from Ron @ networkingrus and had no problems at all! This is the third unit that I have purchased from them.
Have you tried a hard reset and then reloading tt from the cd again? I don't know what else you could try beyond that, although you might try calling tt on the phone and see if they can help. Maybe they can tell you how to do it for a differant map.
Hope this helps..........
You must have a device that was already opened. I would call the vendor or try TomTom as the other member recommended. i just went out and purchased the entire package and uninstalled the free version. I guess you get what you pay for.
send me an email and i can get you the info you need to get it working. ( US and Canda Maps Only ). [email protected]
hi -
i am a big fan of copilot 8 which comes on the hd2, i have started trying out some of the new custom roms and some of them have removed the copilot program. i checked the alk site but don't see where to download it without buying it and i already have a license which i bought a while ago.
can anyone tell me where i can download the .cab file or something like that to instal it to my new custom rom?

I'm also interested in this. I've not got a custom ROM on mine, but have been tempted, so i asked CoPilot support about it. Don't hold your breath on me getting a reply though, as it took 2 weeks for them to get back to me with my last question!
Hopefully, someone on here will be able to point us at a trial download, cos I can't find one anywhere!

How about flashing a stock rom, copying the copilot folder (and other relevant files?) to sd card and then go back to the custom roms...

That's not a guaranteed method. There are most likely files in unexpected locations and registry entries that you wouldn't immediately find. It's worth trying though, but I wouldn't expect it to work completely.
Co Pilot make a great product, in my opinion; however their support, or should I say their speed in reacting to customer queries, leaves a lot to be desired.
I am waiting for a response from them to a query I logged over 2 weeks ago (granted we have had Xmas in between) but I'm not expecting to hear from them until mid January at the earliest.

when I first purchased it I got a download link for a cab and the maps in an email from ALK.
Don't you have that?
Not going to share the cab as it appears to already have my reg number inside it (or at least it's already filled in).
as a secondary route you can back up and restore the programfiles for copilot.
Use Copilot central on your PC on a stock rom to back up, and it will restore fine on your new one..
I've tried this a few times now.

No - it was installed on the device when I got it and I've never had a download link. There was also a bit of literature in the box about CoPilot, and that said that it was pre-installed.

Apps bought on the marketplace are non-transferable. You don't (officially) get the cab file. There is an app that allows you to change your region for the marketplace. Have a look in one of the non phone-specific forums (windows games & apps, for example).

this is completely different type of game..
games of the same type, and wich works on hd2 are:
towerstrap, and resco defender (this one is low res, but works fine)
i found them on wa**z site, since i too cannot buy anything from marketplace
Does anyone knows where I could download the Lite version on the web? I can't find it on marketplace on my country (The Netherlands) neither when I set my country settings to US.
Thanx.
Marketplace is really weird - it's like they pretend they want to sell me stuff, but they don't really:
On my phone, I, too, couldn't find the Hunting game - I've tried the Norwegian, UK and US "world views". In the US view, the Games category contained 99 titles.
Next, on the web before I logged in, the Games category shows over 300 titles. I also searched for "Hunting", and found it (!). I logged in, then Hunting disappeared, and the number of games was back down to 99. I tried logging out, but the count strangely stayed at 99. Hunting was nowhere to be found.
Can anyone explain this?
Tower Defence from colour stone for PPC is pretty good, I got the hunting light version, the one your talking about and I think its not as good as "tower defence" you can buy it from here
tower defense
Hunting: 1$
tower defense: 15$ be serious,
i have the same problem, cannot modify country on my account on marketplace. this is another big shhh from microsoft, i swear i will never buy another windows phone again, once in my life i want to buy something for it and i cannot because of the lack of inteligence from microsoft...
