installed tomtom 7.450.9028 got BTTrayCE start-up error

[sonofliberty]

Hi !
Hope my thread title not too long
I just installed an "old" version of tomtom navigator 7, that i had before having my phone, and now at start up, i get an error message of "BTTrayCE not a valid win32".
I started by searching by myself in the forum, i found this : http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...light=bttrayce

I realised then that my tomtom version is a bit old, and i couldn't fing the files :
\Windows\BtSdkCE30.dll
\Windows\BtCoreIf.dll

in my \Windows directory...

Since it comes from TomTom, i hope first that i will not de a hard reset, and that i can recover this issue before continuing with tomtom installation

Thanks for helping me solving my first ppc issue

They are there, but you can't see them with the standard file explorer because they are hidden files. You need to use a program like Total Commander or Resco File Explorer to view the hidden files. If you use Resco you need uncheck options>general>hide hidden files

thanks for the reply !

The soft that you talk about, does it run into the pc or the ppc ?

[sonofliberty]

i have sktools, maybe i can browse hidden files with it ...

tt7 is using an older bt driver for bt integration with the software...what is happening is its overwriting the bt driver that launches in start up...what i recommend doing is with resco explorer make a copy of the original bttray in the windows/start up folder...then install tomtom 7...then copy the original back into and thus overwriting the older bttray file in the windows start menu.

the desinstallation of tomtom navigator doesn't solve the problem...

Thanks for trying to help me, hope we'll succeed !

Now that tomtom is installed, uninstalled, where is my up-to date bt driver ????

I mean : is it too late now ?

[sonofliberty]

ok.... i found the 2 files with SKtools (great software)

What should i do next ? Rename the 2 files and soft reset ?

What about my original BTTrayCE file ?

Thanks !

I renamed the 2 files, and after soft reset, no problem, and i was able to run btooth again.

Thank you !!!

Now, the file that you are recomending, is that bttrayce.lnk in the start up folder ? (It is the only file that my request *bttray* gave me with SKTools

Can someone post their bttray file? I went too quickly and deleted mine when it was causing problems...
