installing tomtom 7 on Samsung Omnia mobile phone WM 6.1
January 26th, 2020
I am having problems getting Tomtom to work on my Omnia. I have managed to install the app, but i am getting problems getting a signal. The error I get is “poor signal, are you inside..?” I have set up my external gps to use port 3 and also configured tomtom to do the same, using the buad rate = 4800.
I am also having problems installing the voices, any ideas.
The Samsung uses Windows mobile 6.1, I have been on google all day and still havent been able to find a resolution.
Cheers,
Hi mate,
Use port 4 baud rate 9600 it should work even though omnia is a crap phone.
I AM USING htc touch diamond and touch pro at the moment at it works for both of them
Hi ,
At the present moment I haven’t got an Omnia, although I am very tempted to get one as it looks a nice piece of kit. I have been browsing the net, reading reviews and getting general info about the phone, during this I read about getting Tom Tom to work on the Omnia.
As I haven’t got an Omnia, I have not tried this, so cannot give you 100% what works or doesn’t but:
Some say that you can get Tom Tom 7 working on the Omnia by using a program called GPSGate, you can get this app from this very site:

I have also found this video on YouTube that shows you how to set up GPSGate and Tom Tom 7 for the Omnia

Others say that Tom Tom 7 works fine without GPS Gate, and that you use the following settings:
In Tom Tom 7 GPS option use ‘Other NMEA GPS’ with a baud rate of 4800 on COM3.
I do However think that this may depend on the Firmware of the Omnia, as at present (as its new), I think that various updates (firmware), are coming out pretty frequent.
I hope this helps.
can this work on A NOKIA N95? !!!!!
Hi , try this: install Gpsgate on Omnia. Open Settings and set COM3+9600 as Input and Virtual COM4 as Output. In TomTom7 open GPS configuration, set Other NMEA device and Fronson COM4. Believe or not, it works in my Omnia. JN

Hi peeps.
I have tomtom installed on my omnia, I have an external gps device, but I cannot connect to it? any advice please?, or where can I download firmware upgrade for omnia.
sorted it
hi guys, okay, tomtom 7 works with internal gps but the signal is very very weak. it takes about 10 to 15 minutes to recognize the internal gps. igo 8 woks very fast, within a couple seconds your internal gps has been found!
Use igo8 is the best for omnia i-900
