use this free tool if you wish, it can help you a lot in going to directions that you saved or you may enter manually, it gives you direction,and altitude to reach places like digital compass,and you could use maps of your area to put coordinates...

Thanks for your help,
I'll wait for some new rom to fix this issue. I trust in the xda team to cooked some new rom that run the compass properly.

Welcome!!
me too waiting...,
in fact, outdoor navigation has a compass that worked for me for 5 min?!?!?!?than it wouldn't.
so i think it's a few registry correction and i would work fine...

Bump...any word on a compass yet? Several apps in the marketplace tell me they cannot function properly because my device does not have a compass. Compasses downloaded from marketplace also do not work and give me the same message.

this one seems to be working..

in my phone is working ....i dont know how i didnt do anything at all but its working i didnt pay mutch attention but when i tried it it worked for 10-15 minutes . when i will use it again i will confirm

Try this version

Anyone use WorldCard Mobile?

I have installed it on my diamond and when you press on the icon to load nothing happens! Anyone got it to work? Cheers
I installed it to the internal storage and have used it successfully.
Works quite brilliantly.
Try removing and reinstalling.
Tried that. Weird. Which version are you using? I have the latest version d.
Works perfect, expecially OCR at chinese font. You need to take photo vertically.
works fine for me on my Diamond. Actually surprisingly good!
Is it possible to attach a copy of WorldCard Mobile
That come with Diamond
no, because it requires registration and can only be used on one device.
Because this version is VGA
i want Just to try it in x7500 as a Trial
and if it works
I Will purchase it

Hey Spitwroot - did you ever get it working? I'm in the same boat...I have a Telus Diamond and no version I cand find of this product will properly run once installed. It's driving me batty as I truly will fork out the dough for it, if I can just get it working! I'm not prepared to do a hard reset over it...yet.

Doesnt work with my sprint cdma version either. I think something about the cdma version of diamond makes it not compatible. I tired the trial on website and the one on the official diamond pro. nada
Same here, tried world card mobile on Sprint Diamond... no joy. Tap the icon and nothing happens.
I so want this to work!

its all ok, just post your question in the touch pro section.
But I think its not necesary, u already have the answer.
Moved to Raphael, aka Touch Pro, Forum.
HTC Touch Pro do not seem to have HTC Home. In the "Today" settings, there is the HTC Touch Flo enabeled. I tried to runn iGO with it desabeled, but no succes.
So, I think there must be some other way...
Install iGo8, then search for the latest update. Install the latest update, remove the iGo8 Today plugin in Setting > Today > Items, and add a link in the "Programs" tab of TF3D. That should do it (works fine on my Touch Pro)

Got it working now....
Just a quick question, does it work in landscape mode on the touch pro?
Uhm, I don't know why it isn't working for you because on my Touch Pro it works great. Just installed it, copied the appropriate files for my country (the Netherlands) into the appropriate dirs as mentioned in the readme and that's it. Uhm, no, I had to set the GPS on com4 in iGo8 to get the gps working but that was all I had to do.

Just tried it. Works great in landscape too.
Can you confirm that the maps render and scroll smoothly when navigating now unlike the jerky movement you have with the Kaiser?
I can't compare with the Kaiser, I never had one. But map scrolling seems ok to me.
Hmm I got the same problem.. How do you actually update it?
I just bought my htc pro touch so bear with me please.
i installed it. everything seemed fine, i click on it, i get a loading icon, nothing happens.
Keyboard?
Hi,
iGO8 seems to work, but I can't get the hw keyboard to function. Not one key seems to respond. Does everyone else have this problem?
Thanks,

i dont understand why there are reported problems with the gps software on this phone. is there anything outhere that just works , without tweaks or anything of the sort?
is the co pilot 7 better than igo8? in terms of usability by someone who doesnt understand how all this works
I have tested iGO8, TomTom 7, and Garmin XT. All work fine on the Touch Pro (but I did not test hardware keyboard input).
In my case, I found Garmin to have the best GPS performance: only 2-3 seconds lag behind my separate Garmin nuvi 760 unit, and <30 secs for first fix most of the time. iGO and TT are a little slower but still work fine -- but other people find iGO or TT to work very well.
Other thoughts: TT has the most detailed roadmaps, iGO and Garmin are average. But I find Garmin has the best POI support. iGO (and I think TT, also) supports TMC but (so far) it cannot be activated on the Raphael. Garmin does not have TMC but can download traffic from its servers via your data connection (3G, EDGE, etc). For me, Garmin is a solid middle-of-the-road software; the only major drawback is no TTS, which iGO and TT both have.
I haven't tested Co-Pilot 7, but since it's based on iGO core (iirc) I probably won't try it. But of course, you should try demo maps or at least read reviews to find out which software is good for you.

To help clarify, there are two separate issues. The first is that many GPS software comes on SD cards that are intended to be kept on the SD, or on CD to be installed to main device memory, though if you buy it you have every right to install it to your Raphael. Since the Raphael only has microSD, you may have to install the program in a certain way to get it running. You also have to be careful of the software version, since not all are compatible with WM6.1. (These issues come up all the time among people pirating the software.)
The other issue is about the GPS receiver in the Raphael. Lots of people are trying different tweaks to get the best performance (ie: no lag) out of their receiver. But it's unclear if it's a problem with a weak antenna, or if certain programs (iGO, Garmin, TomTom) run better/worse on the Raphael. The results have been somewhat mixed but we're gradually figuring everything out.
Hi, I am trying to install IGO 8 on the HTC touch Pro, Raphael. The installation seems ok but when I launch the program, nothing happens. The rainbow circle shows up but then nothing. I am wondering what I am doing wrong. Could someone please advise?
Thanks in advance.

Just install a newer wersion: 8.0.0.44366 or 8.0.0.54000 and it will work just fine.

(UPDATED LINKS 11|28|2010) Footprint CAB

This version of Footprint is based on.......HTC_Footprint_1.01822.3925 (This is the 2D Manilla version, but will work with TF3D)
I have done some modifications to make this work on my Fuze, but it should work just fine on the Touch Pro, or Diamond. Currently this version does NOT have the "Footprint Tab" on the home screen. I don't have lots of time on my hands so bear with me on updates. If anyone wishes to step in and modify it more, its all yours.
**THERE WILL BE NO FUTURE UPDATES**
KNOWN PROBLEMS
**LANDSCAPE VIEW DOESN'T FIT THE WHOLE SCREEN**
READ BELOW FIRST
**Footprint MUST be installed BEFORE installing Google Maps. If your device was PRELOADED with Google Maps you MUST re-install it.**​~ If you use TomTom download the TomTom Supported Version ~
~ If you use CoPilot download the CoPilot Supported Version ~
~ If you use PaPaGo download the PaPaGo Supported Version ~
~ If you use NaviTel download the NaviTel Supported Version ~
~Having one of the above GPS programs is NOT required. But if you don't have one then you MUST download Google Maps to get the full effect.​
**CHOOSE & DOWNLOAD FILE HERE**​^^^^^UPDATE^^^^^FILES ARE NOW IN ONE SECTION^^^^^UPDATE^^^^^
The uncompressed files are the larger of the two also the compressed files are filed as "compressed". There is no difference between the two so choose the compressed file unless you have issues then revert to the uncompressed file.​

It's not working on my TP, something about a missing file or signature.

Thanks, will give this a try on my Sprint HTC Pro.
Will give you feedback

I believe it's the new HTC Footprints app. It uses GEOTagging on your photos to help allow you to track when and where they were taken easier.
For the record.
Working on:
Stock ROM on a AT&T Fuze does work.
Conflippers ROM on a Alltel Touch Pro does work.
GC's 2.1.4 ROM on a Sprint Touch Pro does work.
Merdinh 3.2 ROM on a Sprint Touch Pro does work.
PROven 1.4a ROM on a AT&T Fuze does work.
Stock ROM on a Sprint Touch Pro does work.
Not Working on:
Custom ROM on a GSM Diamond does not work. <Xboxmod tried 4 different ROM's>
Lantis OS 3.01 ROM on a Touch Pro does not work.​
As I get more information, I'll update.

So if we have TouchFlo3D installed, then we shouldn't try it? I was thinking its a standalone Install?
I could be wrong, but I don't think there is even an actual TF3d version of "Footprint" and is only in 2D.
This cab will work on TF3D or 2D. It does NOT include the "Footprint" Tab on the Home screen though, so NO its NOT a full Manilla install. This is simply a standalone cab. Shortly you will see it built into some ROM's.
Tried it
Ok I tried it, and it did work, but as you had mentioned, the above errors or glitch are still present. Its a nice job tho, and I appreciate your effort. Can't wait for a complete working build
hi
won't work for me on 2 different rom (i have a gsm diamond)
it say trusted certificate!!!
do you have an idea why?
i've just install your cab no m2d or something related.
i try sdkcert but always the same bug!

You probably need to install the sdkcerts.cab
I am assuming the error is something along the lines of "program cannot be installed because its not digitally signed by a trusted certificate"
I will attach a cab in the SECOND POST.
Works Great
I just tried the second version and it works fine with my TomTom 7. But I want to know something, must it always try to plan the route? I had the impression it would just locate the place on a map and that's it. Any chance of an implementation with Google Maps ? I don't want to ask much.
But the other 2 problems are still there. The picture taken is out of place. But GPS works Great
Great work Men Kudos

Yes, I am working on getting the google maps implemented into the program. I am hoping to have the other 2 problems fixed soon. I might get the google maps in the next update, but no guarantee.

Finally got a chance to install and try but can't get past the error,
"The file 'HTCFootprint.exe' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."​
I also have installed the SDKcerts.cab but don't see them listed in the licensing section on the phone.

Memory Map on Android

I have been using Memory map on windows mobile for a while now and find it excellent, i have contacted them about a Android version and they have said they have no plans at the moment, so my question is....does anyone know of or is making an app that can read the mmnav files that the maps are saved in ?
This is a fantastic routing prog for hiking, walking, biking etc would love it on my Hero......lets see.......
thanks in advance for any help
I think David gave the impression he was working on this.
I would advise to check
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=565516&highlight=os+maps
mail him, and give him some money
Have you tried OS-Maps?
tried em ...
thanks for the suggestions, i have tried both but neither work with the mmnav offline maps that i looking for...will keep trying
Any news on this?
The only thing stopping me from migrating too android is the lack of map software.
I have memory maps for WM, so have maps permanently on my phone.
The key difference is it means I can disable gprs/phone when hiking and save a HUGE amount of battery. the computer sync is nice too.
I want to leave WM behind and go android, but can't until mapping software is good
What is out there?
I would love to get an update on this as well. OS Map does not work in the US and the benefit of Memory-Map is having the map stored on the phone. Critical when you don't have a data connection. Not unusual with T-Mobile.
Check this out http://www.viewranger.com/android/
also look for OS maps on market, might be useful?
Am in same boat as a few others here...
I have EVERY map produced for Memory map(due to job its a must) So am reluctant to move completely from WinMo as the cost of the maps for memory map alone is in the thousands(YES I paid for them not warez). Same goes for Garmin mapsource too..
If we could use all this data on Android may be I would ditch My WinMo.... Till then WinMo is my primary phone and Android just a play thing.
Yes there are several apps out there that show great maps and even os maps but they rely on data connections which is often a problem when out in the mountains. Offline data is a must thus saving battery and cost... Viewranger is ok but that requires purchasing further mapping data I ALREADY HAVE....
The best solution I have found so far for android is Oruxmaps but this still requires the atlas creator to download and create OS Maps using Mutlimap maps.. But when you compare maps say the size of the peak district Orux maps 25k and 50k against memory maps they ares so different memory map = 200 Megs oruxmaps = 1.4gigs
So for me Memory maps and Garmin Mapsource is the main reason I can not move to Android...
Hope there will be a solution forth coming..
regards
Lohtse
Gonna haveto say,I love mem map, I need something that can read Raster Map files. There is no hope to read MMO files, as they are propitiatory files to Mem map. Give me somthing that reads raster maps, and I am gone from WinMo.
Hi,
i had the same problem when i was thinking about switching from WM to Android. So i decided to write an app to read and display QCT files from SD card.
I put this app in the Android Market. It is called "MM Tracker".
There is a free version which just can display the maps and shows your GPS position.
The pay version can record and display tracks as GPX files and is still under development regarding new features.
@Admin: I hope this is not unwanted advertising ? If so, please remove this post. But as i was looking for such an app for a longer time i think this information is useful for some Android users.

I think Android has some way to go to be on par with WM, theres so much more WM can do as compaired to Android, Android just seems very basic to me.
Thanks again.
tried to find mm tracker on market but didnt find it! Could some one post it here please?
Sent from my HTC Hero
figured out why can't find MM tracker... You have to have 2.2 froyo flashed.... So mm tracker is somewhat useless to most everyone....
thank you anyway for the effort

Not useless for me, very good program, reads all my old qct maps.
but then I do have 2.2 flashed.
Well alot of us don't have 2.2 flashed. For me its because phone is running great at the mo and don't wish to prat about reinstalling 470+app's on 2.2 just for one app (tried it and well 2.2 seems to dislike 300+app's and that's all ver's have tried) Also 2.2 on hero is still bugging where as 2.1 is near perfect now..
So I PLEAD with the developer to make it 2.1 compatible I for one would be most greatful and consider paying for full version..

would definitely recommend flashing either floyo or froyd 1.5 to your phone along with flykernel 11.. extremly stable, even faster than 2.1 w/ or w/out sense

tried several inc villain one had issues with all... Most just would allow me to install all my apps either via titanium, my backup or manual... hence sticking with 2.1
Hmmmmmm! I dunno???????/
Maybe you should update your phone? I`ve had no problems with stock 2.2 froyo on a HTC Desire, apart from it not being as good as WM.
Most software writers will wirte software for latest firmwares will they not? lower vers will soon be obsolite?
someone correct me it i`m wrong?

I LOVE PEOPLE WHO SAY UPDATE YOUR PHONE LOL.......... Oh Dear that made me laugh.........
As to latest firmware comment it would seem more with the android community this happens .Im primary a WinMo user (got 15 of them) and alot of developers write to allow for wm200se,wm5,wm6,1 an wm6.5 plus wm7 so not always the case... Anyway this has moved away from the issue in hand which is the need for memory map on Android...

Freedom Pro BT Keyboard

Hey there,
Does anyone also own a Freedom Pro Keyboard ? It works to install the ****ty Firmware but i cannot connect the Keyboard with, so that the User defined Shortcuts are unable to manage .
They (according to their FAQ) know the Problem, but their solve doesnt
work.
So my question to you guys is if you solved this problem.
thx a lot for any helpful answers
I have had nothing but trouble with Freedom keyboards - I tried the Freedom Pro, but I could only get it to do the basic keyboard functions with my HD2, no special buttons or characters. I sold it to my wife who uses it with her Blackberry without any problems at all - possibly this is an issue with WM becoming defunct, developers can't be bothered to produce proper software for the platform any longer.
I remember I had issues with the Universal 2 before that - again, it works ok as a basic keyboard with the HD2, but both keyboards actually stopped working if I loaded the proper drivers!!
Unfortunately, with the departure of Stowaway/iGo, Freedom are in a monopoly position in this market.
Bottom line - if you want a basic keyboard of a good size and ease of use, it's ok, but don't imagine you are going to get fancy features based on my experience.
rjstep3
Ok, thx anyway for information ..
i bought it because of the ability to define Shortcuts
i think i sell it on ricardo / Ebay ..
but i've seen some other Keyboards somewhere in a I-net-Shop.
so hopefully i will find some handy Gear
update:
is it possible to inactivate the WM HID Software ?
maybe this would help .. or try another Bluetooth Stack ?
ok again update:
maybe they fixed something, but i downloaded a few minutes ago
the Firmware (its the File for Broadcomm BT Stack, message to all noobs like i am
installed it again and , hey , it works !!
thx because i was going to be angry ....!!
