Have anybody tested TomTom Mobile with the Nokia 6630??
TomTom (so far) only supports this software on the Nokia 6600,
but I doubt TomTom has based their sale of TomTom Mobile
only to the old Nokia 6600.
I know the Nokia 6630 is running on Symbian OS8 and the
Nokia 6600 on Symbian OS7, but Symbian OS8 should be
backwards compatible!?? Or?????

yes,there is a backward compatibility 😃 most of the applications for Symbian 7 wil be running on version 8 too 😉

Most yes... But can you CONFIRM that TomTom Mobile is working on the 6630?
It is decisive for me if I am gonna buy the phone!

To be honest with you, I don't really like the Nokia 6630. It has good specs,
but still missing FM-radio and missing a camera in the front of the phone for
3G-video-conferancing (Why else would you really be needing 3G instead of
Edge??) like the SE Z1010 (it's too cumbersome to be dragging around the
video-craddle for it). Also it has a weird and cumbersome design which I don't like,
with the round shape in the bottom. BUT, since there are not many other
alternatives right now, I am playing with the thought of going for it, and keep
it until the 3230 with Edge/FM-radio, or the new 3G flagship 6680 arrives.
TomTom is an amazing piece of software, and I have tried it on an Nokia 6600.
Wayfinder and Route66 are in my opinion NOT comparable, and a smartphone
that is not capable of running TomTom Mobile is out of the question for me.
So, anybody who have tried TomTom Mobile on the 6630? Plz let me know!

omg.... Fm radio is useless /in my opinion/ and the second camera.... its more comfortable to call with camera stand than hold the phone in you hand all the time,and i dont think,that you are able to hold it in a stable position 😃 and if there is 3G in your country,most of your calls will not be videocalls,just calls just like in GSM 😃 its really interesting how can an only one application decide,if the phone is good,or not for you 😃
Actually, the missing FM radio isn't a big deal for those who want it. You need to have a headset for the antenna to function and Nokia instead offer a new radio headset. This headset gives any Nokia phone an FM radio. If anyone truly wants radio, just buy that headset.

That's the same as saying why use a mobile phone when its more confortable to use a fixed phone confortably seated on the sofa...
I think videocalls are one of the biggest advantages of 3G and that a second should be in the phone or maybe just one and some sort of shell phone like the 6260
I am thinking to buy this phone because I want to move into the symbian world and its the best phone at the momment. But I would'nt mind having the same model without 3G and less expensive, since I think almost nobody will be using 3G functionality at the moment (except maybe newsreporters and people who work for mobile phone networks 😊 )

laugh as much,as you can,as much,as you wish... but try to think about it... second camera,videocall..... for how long will you frequentky use this ? two weeks ? maybe more.... but its the same,like with cameras on phones,for the first some weeks you shoot photos all the way,all the time,and than you maybe forget about it,that you have an integrated camera... but maybe you are a different person and you will use it every day twice,than iam so sorry... 😃
Talk about deviate from the topic guys 😃
None of this has got anything to do with TomTom & the 6630, can we get back to it as I'd like to know to.

IS TOMTOM MOBILE WORKING ON THE NOKIA 6630 ??????????? :con?

Got my phone last Friday 3rd Dec and so far no probs. Except that the RS-MMC for my nokia 6600 is no good (piss me off) so have two 1G cards RS-MMC that I can't use. The reason is that the voltage. Must get RS-MMC with dual voltage and which operates at 1.8v for it to work in the 6630.
Ordered one such card and will arrive tomorrow. If it works will install Tomtom and Route 66 on the 512MB card and see if it works.
Check back on this forum tomorrow to see if it works and to find out if n-gage games work on it also!!!
Can confirm Blz & Ngage games do work.
Only tried Pyou & Sonic so sar & they run sweet. Sonic looks & sounds better than on the 6600 & u can actualy read the options on the main screen.
Tried to upgrade the memory to 64MB from Voda but they wouldn't as they had none & on the phones box it says 32MB rs MMC 😞
hey can u tell wht is "pyau $ sonic ".

I thought that too but I'm not sure how yours is package but mines has a vodafone packaging around the orginally nokia box! It the vodafone packaging which stated the 32MB card not the nokia box. Double check that though...
Will let you know when I claim mine one tomorrow hopefully!
By the way did you get the video stand with your package?
My box has voda all over the front & sides & only proper Nokia on the back (no extra box inside).
phone �120 on their promotional �40 a month 500 free mins taraff & I did get the video stand.
Where do you get ngage games on the net?
And how does one install it for use on a series 60 phone?

BTW! Did you get to check TomTom Mobile on the 6630?? 🙄

I personally havn't tested it because of the tiny 32MB space on my memory card.

you get yours from Vodafone ? only 32MB card,ehm... 😃
Fidelko wrote:you get yours from Vodafone ? only 32MB card,ehm... 😃
Yea its a bummer
YES it works.
I have tested it with the london map and it WORKS.
This is most interesting...
I'd love to know how big the TomTom UK software is, as it comes on an MMC card which the 6630 cannot use, and seeing as you've tried it and it works then it must be able to fit on the 64MB DV RS-MMC that comes with the phone.
How easy is it to copy the TomTom software from the original card to another one?
And would it be theoretically possible to only purchase the Bluetooth GPS box for �100-odd and use it with "shared" software?
Hey,
I think you'll find the TomTom tested above is the Street Maps version, not TomTom Mobile which needs 100mb just for the UK map alone.
TomTom Mobile comes pre-installed on a 256mb MMC from TomTom and so will not fit on the puny 32/64mb DV RS MMC's we have.
You'd just manage to get the application itself on the MMC with no maps to use.
Waiting patiently for bigger DV's to come 🙄
