How ironic! Just when most people finally got Nov 13 version to work, Jan 9 version is out!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] david-v:
So just replace the iGO.exe file with this version of the executable (renamed to iGO8.exe)...voila :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] arifmujtaba:
What is the latest version of gO8 released on Jan 9
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Plonker:
Excuse my ignorance - are you saying that all you need to do to perform the update is replace this one file? You don't need to replace all the other folders/files too?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] michael_r:
To go from Nov 13 to Jan 9 version (from 8.3.2.64873 to 8.3.2.71348), all you need is a new executable. If you have another version (PDA version for example), you may need more.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] david-v:
Nope, PDA version also works with this 9 jan version. Replace the executable and you will be up and running :)

TMC working ?

Hi everybody,

The Nav N Go iGO 8.0.0.49545 automatically found the TMC on my Touch HD when headphones were connected. But with the 8.3.2.64029 version, that don't work any more :/ Crap ! :)

I walked through this forum to pick informations but this problem seems no really "documented".

Any news about it ?? Some files to mod ?? A solution ?

Thanks a lot for your answers.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] michael_r:
It works but no TTS. You need much more to get TTS running. But once it is running, it is worth the effort.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] onesolo:
Guys need help.

I've downloaded a data.zip that contains the 800x480 support for the HD.

But no matter what I write in sys.txt I cannot get the native resolution on the HD.

If I don't write anything about the resolution on sys.txt, on the menus I get everything fine but when switching to the map I get a black top strip.

If I put

[interface]

skin="ui_igo8"

resolution_dir="480_800"

I get the image with a big zoom in and only can see a bit of the menu.

If I put

[rawdisplay]

screen_x=480

screen_y=800

A similar thing happens..

Can anyone tell me the lines that I have to put on sys.txt ??
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Adam4U:
I tried that, but when setting it to always on, the HD starts to "tick" all the time..tick, tick...any idea how this can be solved, please??
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] L_o_k_i:
@Adam4U

Did you try to delete the "save" folder (you can rename it if you don't want to delete it)?

@Clem-le-long

According to anothers the HD doesn't have TMC (the specs doesn't mention it either). How did you manage to have TMC on it? Are you sure it was working with your previous version?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] rx47:
Is there any setting in sys.txt to improve the graphical performance of iGO8 v8.3.2.64029? Or any other way to get more graphical performance? Other than to buy other device... :)

I had 8.3.2.64873 working fine on HD.

Replaced iGo8.exe with new version (8.3.2.71348) ... and have frequent GPS disconnected/signal lost messages. It got few satellites, works for 5 seconds ... disconnected. Tries again to find satellites ... going rounds :(

Reverted back to 8.3.2.64873 and everything works again.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Plonker:
Thank you both. I haven't tried the update yet as I'm reluctant to screw up a perfectly working installation. :o

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] mbvisiontt:
I can't get TMC to work either, I'm running 8.3.2.71348. It won't find any hardware when headphones are connected. Not whilst simply having them connected, nor when I have FM-radio running in the background and a RDS station selected (radio538).

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] rx47:
Thx for your suggestion. I've tried some settings from your sys.txt but no improvement so far. When I navigate in areas with more buildings it is obvious that there is no flawless navigation. I guess the problem is the high resolution handled by an improper processor (Qualcomm) and I can’t do a thing about this.

In comparison I’ve tried the same route on a Mio device with 400Mhz processor and qvga resolution and it is much faster than my blackstone either to calculate the route and navigate it.

Nevertheless I’ll try to live with this issue even the overall graphical performance is disappointing me.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] 4irm:
I was experiencing the same problem, initially i thought its due to some gps tweaks in custom rom's but after upgrading to the latest radio it seems to work again.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] orangewarrior:
After spending several hours faffing around with the settings, i copy/pasted these and it works beautifully. Thanks for the help - not least of all cos the software allows you to toggle between portrait and landscape mode.

One minor niggle is that it only seems to load from the "igo8" icon on the memory card, but that's liveable with.

Also, could be just me, but none of the GJ skins seem as nice as the original to me. Gonna give the ultra skin a try though.

Or maybe its a different version of IGO 8 than the one you've got??? It works with my igo, check the post it tells you what the version is!!!!

changed sys file but still no joy

hello..changed the sys file to one listed..i click on the igo8 icon..the little wheel turns for few seconds and nothing happens..

am i missing something out ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] donbronzi:
i had this problem for ages think it depends on what version of igo you have. On your PC Unzip your data file in the igo 8 folder, then go into ui_igo8 folder and make sure the folders 400_240 and 240_400 are present. If they're not that could be the reason.

check post 102 to see if that is the version you have because that data file has the correct ui folders.

Good luck

i have a problem with my iGO 8 R3 v8.3.2 when it load it got stuck at the Initializing Warning Data. Anyone one know how to fix the problem
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Duncank:
I've had the same problem on my phone. It is not actually a problem, but the system is in progress then. iGO is checking your content folder for speedcams at that moment and is building a .spdb file for it. This can take quite a while.

You have 2 options on this,

Leave your phone for a couple of hours (yes it can take that long!)

or delete the speedcam folder from the iGO8 content directory. This will remove the speedcams in the program, but you won't have to wait so long now!

(If you choose to leave your phone for a couple of hours to give iGO the opportunity to build the .spdb file for the speedcams, don't worry about having to do this everytime you want to use iGO, it's only for the first time.)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] wetete:
Hi Applepie,

If it's the first time you start it up, just wait. takes a lot of time to initialize its environment. That's for the first time only. Expect to wait 30 min and you'll be happy when it finishes earlier.... Enjoy

Yes, I've used 8.3.2.79297 (the latest) for two weeks now. Working!

You have to be in landscape mode to choose skins made for landscape 800x480

With correct sys.txt, it's no problem to change from portrait to landscape and vice versa.

You can try mine. Change only the name of your card.

Theese are mine settings for 3d navigation the way I like it.

You can try to modify to your liking.

I'm not using any skins for the moment.

You maybe need the latest data.zip with 480x800 and 800x480 resolution and branding.zip.

TMC with internal radio

Hi everybody,

I am new to this forum, but I have read all this thread concerning the use of iGo8 on Touch HD. And I would to thank you for the useful information that can be found on this thread.

I got iGo8 to work very well on my Touch HD, except for the TMC with the internal radio. I know the internal radio is capable to receive TMC messages. However, the autotuning does not work and neither the manual tuning of the radio frequency. It is stuck at 0.0 MHz...

I got iGo8 to recognize the internal radio by adding in the sys.txt file the following:

[tmc]

saved_config_available="1"

saved_config_classname="RDS_GPSTMC_SILICONLAB"

saved_config_portname="COM"

saved_config_port="3"

saved_last_tuning_mode="1"

So now, the internal radio is recognized but no luke with the frequency tuning.

Did anybody figure out a way to get it to work ?

I have that TMC receiver but wasn't able get it work right now... But I bought it yesterday.....

Here is a TMC Demo Program from Royaltec:

After installation you'll find a "RDSTMC.dll" in the program folder. Unfortunately the program was not able to find that tmc rec. on any port here on my HD.
