I have posted the code below, this will work on your device providing that you install CleanRam to your "device" and your IGo program is listed as "\storage card\iGO8\igo8.exe". These HQ TTS voice issues baffled me for months, but now they work consistently without a soft reset.

Again this code will stop TF3D, Run CleanRam, Start Igo... then when you exit iGo it will restart TF3D.

manilastate=ProcExists("manila.exe")
If (manilastate)
Kill("biotouch.exe")
RegWriteDword ("HKLM","Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\TouchFL O 3D","Enabled",0)
RedrawToday
endif
RunWait("\program files\htcaddicts cleanram\htcaddicts_cleanram.exe")
RunWait("\storage card\iGO8\igo8.exe")
Sleep(5000)
Kill("Repllog.exe")
While ( ProcExists("igo8.exe") )
IdleTimerReset
Sleep(500)
EndWhile
If (manilastate)
RegWriteDword ("HKLM","Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\TouchFL O 3D","Enabled",1)
RedrawToday
Run("\windows\biotouch.exe")
endif

I have attached the script to run with mort script. I hope others can benfit as well. Good luck and enjoy!

I have updated my script to "sense" rather than "TouchFLO 3D". This will work on the newer version of manila. The other script was used in my stock sprint ROM. Thanks for the added tip on the CleanRAM DaddyLongLegs. Lets keep this thread alive, and maybe we can find a concrete solution to something that has baffled me for months. Thanks!

I have my lovely new TP2 - love it
Followed the instructions here and installed iGo8, like it
(Yes there is some lag - but easy to use and fun)

Before I upgrade to 6.5, could anyone advise will iGo8 work on TP2 with WM6.5?

I use the latest version of 8.3.2 with TTS just fine on my TP2. I don't think i'll make the switch to 8.3.4 anytime soon.

TTS comes and goes due to memory. Everything works as it should besides TTS.

Thanks.

First thanks OP for the detailed instructions and everyone else who has helped

Got 2 quick questions:

About how many MB is igo_8.3.4.102680 in .rar?
About how many MB is 2009Q1 NAVTEQ North America Maps in .rar?

thanks in advance
