I recently noticed that when charging in the car (using a standard TomTom One cable) that it didn't seem to be charging properly. After a while the orange charging light goes go out and the phone feels hot. After some investigation is seems that the cable is wired slightly different to a standard mini usb cable hence the problem. The only solution is to modify the cable (sorry, don't know full details) or buy a genuine HTC car cable. I have just ordered one today so will report back!
guys how do u find ur gps setting like the signals??? cuz i have tom tom but when run it it says waiting for a valid gps signal! and it doesnt do anything!!! i dunno how to run the built-in GPS! any idea??? thanks
Go into "preferences" and select "gps receiver". Press "configure", choose "Other NMEA GPS receiver"
Select a baud rate of "9600"
Select "COM4"
TomTom should then connect to the GPS receiver. You can tell if it has connected even if it doesn't have a satellite lock as the round icon at the top right will spin.

great video!does it use the gprs and if so does it cost to use it cos ive got satnav software on my satnav that i can put on my xda stellar(if its free)thanks!
It uses the built in GPS receiver of the phone and I have a copy of TomTom for my pocket PC that installed and runs great on the phone as you can see!
I like to geo cache, I got my handheld from gpssatnavreviews (.) com

Hi
In TomTom, the following settings should work.
Go into "preferences" and select "gps receiver". Press "configure", choose "Other NMEA GPS receiver"
Select a baud rate of "9600"
Select "COM4"
TomTom should then connect to the GPS receiver. You can tell if it has connected even if it doesn't have a satellite lock as the round icon at the top right will spin.
Hope this helps
