How to get iGo8 run on TP2 with TTS enable and 2009 NA Maps (step by step guide) - Page 34

Haven't read through the whole thread yet. Working on that.

First, thanks for this thread xpsworm.

Now I'm having an odd problem. Loaded per 1st and 2nd post and everything worked fine (Voices, skins, maps, etc.). Second or third time I launched it I got the FUIU Akuru error or whatever it is. Didn't check on here to realize I needed the half patches so I deleted my igo8 folder and installed from scratch. The problem I'm hainvg is that "skin" is always greyed out. Everything else is working fine but I can't select the GI skin. Yes have erased the save file and soft reset multiple times to no avail.

Any ideas? Wouldn't be so frusturating if it wasn't working fine yesterday.

Oh, running atomangs fusion v6 2.1 manilla rom on a tilt2.

As per my past posts of not having any issues, I have run into a problem with my iGo8 on my TP2. After I have the device set up the way I want it, everytime I try to enter an address into the find menu, it constantly beeps and has a letter that doesn't disappear. It looks like the letter A with a tiny circle on top of it! That kinda bothers me, well, not kinda, it does very much, that means I can't use the text entry to enter in a destination address and sadly this happens in both Landscape and Portrait mode! If it make a difference, I'm am using Energy ROM Photon build 23081. But, my only issue with that is, when I do a hard reset with nothing on the phone, it works fine! If someone could give me some insight into this problem, that would be great. TIA

Ok I fail to follow directions.

Step 01: Click here to download the GJ 6.12p_da_800x480 package, this is the modified package for Touch Pro2, copy it to iGO8/content/skin, don't unzip it.

I kept unzipping it.

I don't know which , but it's a setting in the SYS.TXT file that's doing it. I went back to my default SYS.TXT and edited it manually and this problem you describe went away.

So, you had the same issue!? Ok, I just figured it out. I just changed the device type back to HTC Touch HD T8282, the interface vga value to 0 and the rawdisdplay highres value to 0 and it fixed the issue!

Hi Folks,

For people trying to use the gurjon skin and having problems, here's what I've found out.

The extension.rar file in the second post is missing the portrait configurations (or at least it was when I downloaded it). Without them you'll get an error when you are powering up (if you are configured into portrait mode).

Here are the work arounds:
Option 1: using the default skin, switch to landscape mode. Once you are in landscape mode, you can choose the new skin.

Option 2: Fix the missing gurjon files. You can download the halfpatches from the website where you get the skin. These include the portrait files. Alternatively, if you don't need that particular function, I believe it is safe to delete that particular directory.

Hope this helps.

I need some help please. The link in the 2nd post to the modified skin for TP2 takes me to the web hosting site, and there is no download file.

I tried the full file from the official site, and followed the instructions in the 2nd post, but the skin option is still grayed out.

Do I need the modified file? How do I get it?

Thanks.

Thank you!

I have had iGo8.3.2 for some time and was happy with it (Q3 2008 maps). While I had the TTS voices/files, I was never able to get it working. With the instructions in the first post, I now have a fully functional GPS with TTS in both Landscape and Portrait modes (not, unfortunately, in 800x480 yet).

Now to try the new skins to fill the screen....

Can someone please upload my package 480x800.rar from the first post somewhere else besides rapidshare - megaupload or mediafire maybe and pm me the link or post it here.

Thank you so much in advance...
