Where did this thread go ?? I was searching for it the other day and i couldnt find it. I searched under tom tom and N95 and got no results.

I ended up hunting the necessary files from a polish forum. Go figure

New to the N95 8GB, have downloaded the files off rapidshare and installed them. This is a NEW N95 8GB I just picked up off of 3 today.

So my question, in tomtom gps config it only gives me 2 options, both bluetooth devices. One is tomtom bluetooth and the other is, well "Other blutooth device"... Do I need to do something to turn on the gps in the phone ?? Anyone ??

Spoke too soon... I managed to get it going a couple oif times,, Now when I start TomTom I get the noGPD device message, go into sat config and change it to the BT one and it bombs out of TomTom... Anyone had this issue and manage to get around it ??

You need to change the preferences every time you start tomtom. It won't remember that you were using the internal GPS.

It's too much mucking around .... get rid of it and use Garmin or something else.

I downloaded Tom Tom for N95 from a rapid share link a while ago and had a system crash. Can someone please point me in the direction of a download link.

Thanks in advance,

I just installed Garmin on my N95. I also have TomTom installed using built in GPS receiver.

Garmin kills TomTom in every aspect, especially in reliability and sat locking.

I can actually use my N95 as a 'reliable' GPS with the Garmin software.

TomTom definitely gooooone.

All you have to do is make a plain text file with sw.unl number and the GMAPSUPP.UNL number and save both files with the extension of unl. Also make sure you are using the correct mapid code.

If it's 100mb+ then that will be the MAP your trying to open, it's named gmapsupp.img

What you need to do is:
Once you have generated your software unlock code open notepad
Paste in the code and save the file as sw.unl

To unlock the map:
If you're using the 2009 map you'll need to select <custom mapset> from the keygens dropdown and enter 358 into the popup box.

Once you have the unlock code open notepad again
Paste in the map unlock code and save the file as gmapsupp.unl

Copy both of these unl files to your mem cards Garmin directory and restart Garmin.
