Hello everyone

Hello there,

You can't install tomtom as far as I know, currently only Sygic and Route66, work is being done on IGO8.

As soon as I resolve my problems with Sygic not working I will upload some videos for those interested to see.

thanks, look forward
hello
where you can find this software?
IGO especially ...
THANKS

Hi all,

I have some very good news!! I managed to solve my GPS problems with SD Card Access Denied Errors!!

The problem was pretty unexpected IMHO, but here goes:

An electrician friend of mine suggested to swap the new control box unit with the old control box unit that originally shipped with the GPS. Replaced it and everythings works properly!

So for those who have problems with SD Card Access Denied e.t.c. the problem is the small control box unit and not the main unit itself - Ms. Zeng was notified and their software engineer is working for a workaround as we speak.

I am happy!

Proper review coming up soon, as well as Retro-fit OEM Armrests guide.

Hi Macke

I have responded to your email regards Australian maps

Dropbear,
Thanks for all your help. Go the unit working with the map SD in the internal slot. However after 2 days tonight when I stopped and restarted the engine 1 hour later the SAt NAv apparently restarted but with a blank screen as it seemed to respond to finger prods on the screen and I got voice messages regarding the route. I emailed Ann Zeng and she said I might have pressed the standby button and the screen had gone blank. I had not but pressing it and the other buttons did not get the screen back. I tried the reset as well with no result. Anyone any thoughts on this.

Macke,

I bought the Monitor CLH 7035. It happens that with little time of use the monitor presented operation defect. The enclosed video demonstrates the defect - The monitor not among in operation and the screen seems the film powerghost.

Was the defect of her monitor same to that? How did you solve?

Ps: I am still awaiting an answer of MsAnn Zeng.

Hi Mr. Irinel,

IGO can run on our unit really. And we have bought 500pcs Brazil from IGO.


2010-11-09

My answer:
"I don't argue with you about that, but we ask you to help us to find a IGO version who can run on your device. I told you, we call distributer from our country and they told us the current version don't work on MIPS devices, so mabe your brazilian clients run some modificated or special version. I think is very simple to you to contact unless one of the 500 clients to ask them a copy or a link to help us make the device useful.We don't ask you maps, we ask just the software who can start on your system and we wil put the maps. Some people from our forum belive is about resolution, IGO can support your device rezolution. So, please contact a client who run IGO on your device, or put us in touch with one of this person becouse I am sure is a older version or something modified in the software.I understand from the mail you received a version from one of your client. Why you don't send to us?
Best regards,"


I count on your support....They must now we are unsatisfied of his support

Hi all!!! Just to let you know that a solution has been found for IGO 8.3 FINALLY!!!

http://4pna.com/showthread.php?t=10574

Also works with DimkaWERTVRV skin, flawlessly!!

Thank you very much for pointing it out for us!
Did you try it? From your sayings I believe you did...
It's an easy install? And steps to follow?
From where to get the maps?

Thanks again!

Hello again,

I have uploaded the MIPS version with the DimkaWertVRV skin implemented. Since the rar file was 320mb, I had to split it into four parts. The mirrors can be found below, and the links should be interchangeable (meaning you can download part1 from provider X, part 2 from provider Y and so on, if you want). Wait for the results to show after "Fetching Links" for the actual links:

http://mir.cr/1H81WLD8
http://mir.cr/09TUJHJK
http://mir.cr/0QIPGCCH
http://mir.cr/0VZVSNKH

Installation is dead-simple - just unrar everything on an SD card and you are good to go!

For Greek-speaking users, keep everything as it is. For non-Greek speaking users, delete all the contents of the save file. You can also search for menu languages, as well as speaking languages on the internet for igo 8.3.2.

If you delete the items within the save folder, I would suggest you change the colour scheme to GPSPocketPC-Real (Day and Night) via the configuration menu.

The latest maps/POI's/DEM/3DL for Cyprus are included in the package. For other countries, the latest maps can be found here:

http://gpsunderground.com/forum/igo-maps/1...urope.html

New maps can be updated in content\map , POI's in content\poi and so on.

Since the Dimka skin is pretty advanced, it's also a good idea to read through it's manual as well to understand the functions it offers. The manual can be found here:

http://www.igo8mods.com/igo8%20manual%20v1.0.pdf

In addition, the MENU and STANDBY buttons do not work whilst inside the application. What you can do, is click on EXIT button on the screen (lower right corner on main menu) and it will give you an option to minimize it.

On a final note, the vanilla version ("skinless") DOES NOT support driver alerts, but they have been implemented via the Dimka skin, that's also one of the reasons I am using it.

Feel free to ask any questions you may have. Thank you and enjoy

Nice, but I have a couple of questions...
1. From where did you adjust the volume?
2. How can you set it, in 2D mode, in Head Up mode, not North Up as it shows by default?
3. How can you adjust the GPS COM port and COM port speed? I'd had to edit the sys.txt file for that... In the GPS screen there are only "Back" and "Help" buttons...
4. How can you get rid of that waiting screen at start-up where it tells you how dangerous is to operate the unit while driving?

Thank you for your input!

Setting show_gps_config=1 didn't make the program to show me the GPS config menu. But I believe I will settle with how it is as you don't need to configure the GPS port too often.

Regarding the sound volumes, I found out that if you long press the "speaker" button on the "Night Building Sound" settings, the volume settings menu appears.

Yes, I've found out the Romanian maps, thank you!
