I would like to have the arrow show as a car using the normal iGO 8 skins (both landscape & portrait) but so far have been unable to find out if this is possible.

Has anyone thought about trying to find the correct code in a skin(such as the one by Dimka for 800 x 480) and modding the original ui files? Im not sure how much work would be involved or which files as Im no programmer. I have had a quick look in the ui files and can see code relating to the car, buttons and colours but unsure how many files will need to be mooded.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] david-v:
Take a look at the screenshot. In red the selected functionality to show. In green the functionality you can select. First you must uncheck one of the red ones (you are only allowed 3), then you can mark a green one. Play with it and I am sure you will learn how to use it

I use Igo8 8.3.2.64873 is a good version?

What this man means? "I edited my sys.txt with "some" of the commands from the SYS.txt attached to the first post. I took out all of the 800_480 entries etc. Now I can switch between landscape and portrait within IGO without changing the sys.txt...perfection! "

Is there any setting to improve the graphical performance in iGO? I'm using 800x480 resolution and the rendering is not so smooth. I also tried the 400x240 resolution but no improvement noticed.

My sys.txt is the following:

Hi !

Where can I find an explanation about the different [rawdisplay] driver possible in IGO.

I've already saw "GX" and "GDI", is there anything else ? What's the difference between those drivers ? which one is te best for igo2008 ?

Speedcam alarm

Hello,

I have IGO8 R3 running quite good but no way to hear the speedcam alarm sound although the option is activated after the fix.

Any advice ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Prof. Yaffle:
You only get the speedcam alarm if you're going over the speed limit. It can be set to tick as you get nearer to a speed camera though.

new skin

Just got my new THD a few days ago. After 1 1/2 days got igo8 3.2.648xx working great and decided to add some more skins (from iGO8 artwork). When I go to the skin option in igo8 it is greyed out. I have put the skins in the folder. Anyone able to help me with this? So I can try out other skins. BTW Great work you are all doing here.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] david-v:
Skins dont work on this version, thats why they are greyed out. Besides, most skins do not support 480x800 or are rather buggy in that resolution. You will have to wait a while before good skins come available. About the greyed out problem. You might want to try the PDA version of iGO8 instead of the PNA version.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] sctarlo:
help me please! i have a very strange problem, when i launch igo 8 v 8.3.2.64873, i always hear a "click" rumors. i stop it only changing settings in backlight setting of device, if i put it always on i hear the sound.

Can u help me?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] david-v:

Gurjon 5.10 for 400x800

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hamkeng:
This special 5.9 version of Gurjon skin DOES have skin resized for 800x400. (attached file) Look inside.

The new 5.10 skin does NOT.

No need for a complex sys.txt for 8.3.2.64873

Here's mine for Landscape and Portrait ( if you do not use skin).

Just change "Lagringskort" with your cardname.

This will make you run iGO in 800x480 or 480x800.

Remove highway roadsigns

First of all...

Thnx for a great forum !

The threads here are to mutch help when i mess around with mu phone.

Next i have a question, i have managed to get iGo 8.3.2 working on my Touch HD. When driving on the highway i got rectangular information about highway exits. Its annoying and take up alot of space on the display.

Does anyone know how to turn them of, in settings or in the sys file?

The new 5.10 skin does NOT."

Update: There is new skin 5.10v2 with 800x480 only file inside for touch HD.It was posted today on www.i-go8.com.So,Gurjon is the only one at the moment who has proper complete skin for HD.(kikker2 is a beatiful simple skin but it has no settings for speed cam).However,it only works horizontaly.

i need only to replace the "sys" txt to run it at htc hd?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] david-v:
No, you would first need to tell us exactly which version of iGO8 you have. Each version may need a different sys.txt
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] primbcadman:
what should the speedcam.xx reads in the content/speedcam. Mine is shows as speedcam.spdb and the speedcam updates reads speedcamupdates.spud. Should both read xxxxx.spud?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] BB88:
One thing I found is, if I just let igo8 runs without setting any route/destination, it will constantly disconnects (8.3.2.64873, any baud rate, running on Diamond, radio 1.00.25.06). When it is running on a route, it will get a constant signal. I'm not sure if this is a power-saving feature.

Advanced settings

Have finally figured out after several hours how to actually get my IGO8 to load.... or at least i thought I had, when I try to go to advanced settings i get told "failed to open ico_findplace.bmp now exiting"

I searched the forum and found a couple of references to this but no solution that works and no amount of fiddling with my syst file seems to work (have read all the comments on this thread and the other igo thread)....any thoughts much appreciated?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] primbcadman:
I have noticed that some peeps post 2 different data.xxx file for portrait or landscape. Does that meant you either use igo8.8.2.648xx as portrait or landscape and have to change the data.xx file at the beginning before using igo8. I mean if you are using gyrator and turn the phone on its side it still shows up as portrait. My data.xx shows the 480x800 and the 800x480. Is there a way that it automaticaly flips when you have phone on side or upright that is the way igo8 opens? Do I need to edit sys file each time I use ig08 depending if I want portrait or landscape? Is there a way around this?

Never mind, know how to change it.

Hi. I'm using iGO8, build 64873. I replaced data.zip with version v9b, and I'm using hamkeng's sys.txt (page 84 in this thread). It works perfectly, the resolution is awesome, which is also my problem: it's too slow. iGO wasn't specifically designed for this device, so it's no wonder. Can anyone tell me what to modify in that sys.txt to make iGO run in half resolution? I tried to apply a 400x240 skin, change the screen and interface sections, change highres to 1, but no luck. Sometimes I managed to make it 400x240, but the screen stayed 800x480, so iGO's size was only 1/4 of the screen.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] fejesjoco:
Yupp, so true. 400x240 did work and indeed, no change. It's still slow. When I fly through a planned route, I get around 3-5 FPS. I deleted the [debug] section and still no change. What could be causing this? What FPS do you estimate on your device?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hamkeng:
You have to be in landscape mode to choose skin made for 800x480

Try the Gurjon 5.11 skin and car icons from http://www.i-go8.com/

Tip: Look at the user manual pdf for Gurjon skins regarding 3D auto zoom settings if you like 3D navigation.

If you try the cars, add this to your sys.txt to hide the cusor under the car:

Add this under [Map]

3d_scale_carmodel=1

3dcarsizemin=30

3dcarsizemax=40

3dcarsizemul=20

The latest data.zip now is v9c ( more backgrounds), go find it.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] borman:
Ok! It's takes me 3 day to realize, so let's make it clear:

In the most of iGO 8.3.xx that u can find in internet, u will NOT find a language, voice, ets' folders! So what ever u will do - u cant start the program.

If u download such package - u NEED to find all missing files.

The normal , full package of the program must be about 100 Mb (or 300 Mb if it include some 200Mb file "Europe_TA.dem" that contain terrain data IMHO).

My iGO folder contains as following:

sys.txt

data.zip

iGO8.exe

branding.zip

gpstms.dll

tmceventlist.csv

tahomabd.ttf

tahoma.ttf

defaults folder

license filder

content folder , and this is inside (all folders, all NOT empty):

*building, poi, map, voice, speedcam, scheme, phoneme, lang, dem (with this big file), texture.

For ppl like me, that need Israel map: look at google for files:

IL0810go832.rar or 10.08_8.3.2.rar - both is same, contain poi and map that have all streets in english, BUT u CAN search for address in Hebrew! ( :) )

I hope my post will help to save some time to u!
