whats the advantage of v6 maps when we have v7 maps??

can someone pls explain............

fromaron

I'd say v6 is better for those of us who can't have their PDA to work with v7.
Otherwise, v7 is newer and therefore better.

orica

thanks for clarification.

i did not realize this because mine worked with v7.

Can't get it working on my smartphone I have TT6 running fine, but this just won't install (getting the installation is unsuccessful message).

a636n V7 works a treat so far!! only had to rename the btcore file to get the sound going.

Short test around Brisbane and I am happy... Can not say for sure which Map version is more accurate at this stage.

Some of the extra custom features are nice, and the fact that all my POI / Voices and other TomTom addins still work is great.

fromaron

You can install custom POI files anyway. I didn't rely only on v6 POIs as well.

I cannot believe how much faster TT7 is over TT6, it is alot better working on my Asus 636n.

i dont mind it but its memory hungry on my Ipaq HP 3715, then again i am running it on Windows Mobile 2003.

I just bought this :

New GTop Ultra Slim 51 Channel Bluetooth GPS Receiver - eBay, GPS, Electronics. (end time 30-Jun-08 19:29:30 AEST)

My old GPS receiver died weeks ago, so I'm dying to try out TT7!

Hi Guys,

I installed version 7 and the Aussie map on my iPAQ PDA and it works fine thanks to you guys . I gave it a try today but it does not contain the speed and red-light cameras as version 6.

I copies all speed_camera.ov2 + speed_camera.jpg files (dated 15/3/2008) to the Australia map directory but it did not work. Can I get some help please?

I would like to know how I can include the speed and/or red-lights cameras into the version 7.

Thanks

satboy

Looks good, tell us how it goes.
Also does it take sd cards?

loanrangiel

Where does this file need to go ?

the_scotsman

I noticed this too...apparently they should appear when placed in the map folder, but it's not working on mine either.


Will do!

Nah it's just a standard Bluetooth GPS receiver. I wasn't aware of any GPS receivers that take SD cards...what gets stored on the card?

Some of the sd gps receivers have a sd slot so you dont loose the slot to the gps but never seen a bluetooth one with sd .

wrxxy

For the life of me I cant this to work I had V6 working ok , however I think I have stuffed up uninstalling V6 and deleting all the files on the SD card this V7 version is that ment to install as an upgrade?
Can anyone help as I have no idea and am baffled

Thx in advance


Ps MAYBe I need a step by step in very detail as I am only new to this sort of stuff

the_scotsman

The v720 aus map is ****ed...my street is 12 years old and has been in all the V5 and V6 maps...its there in the v700 map but not in 720!?! WTF is with that?

Maps going backwards...well done Sensis!!

I'll need to check the 715 map to see if its on there.

i'm going back to version 6, can not get speed cameras or red light cameras to show unless you have planed a route, gps is off by at least 20 meters compared to ver 6, it has some good features but overall not worth it unless you can get it to work 100%
