That is old and I thought I am behind the times.

There are newer version out there so I wonder if anyone had tried.

I flash my TP2 to WM6.5 yesterday and got iGo8 working again.

I forgot how to do the shortcut so here I post for anyone that need help on it (I did the first one) :

There are two ways I use to make a shortcut in Windows Mobile. The first is to find the original EXE, tap and hold on it, and select "copy". Then, go to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\, tap and hold, then "paste as shortcut".

The other, easier way is to install this valuable piece of software, restart file explorer, browse to the EXE, then tap and hold, then finally choose "Send Shortcut to Programs".

I recently noticed that conflipper's weather database program seems to cause problems to iGo TTS. I can replicate the problem on my phone. Installed the weather database and select any city, then run iGO, and TTS stops working.
Uninstall and soft reset, iGo TTS works again.

I always install this database when I was running 6.1 because the small town I live is not included in the original city list. Now with 6.5 I can use my Location feature to get weather data. So it is not important now.

Anyway just want to share this information. When I flashed the new 6.5 ROM for the first time, TTS works. And then after installing many tweaks and programs, it 's no longer working unless I disable Sense. Took me a couple of hours to test each program and tweak. Finally nailed down to this. I could still be wrong though. Anyone can confirm. BTW, conflipper's work is still great if you don't care about TTS.

More good news!
TTS works with the latest Might ROM as well (this ROM is based off of the new Sprint ROM).

No scripts or disabling Sense, just run iGO8 and it's good to go! I even have the full Dusk package installed.

There is definately something different in the new Sprint Rom.

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.

Step 02: Download zip file Extension.rar here, unzip it, copy the whole unzipped folder (EXTENSION) to root folder iGO8 on your SD card

Step 03: Run iGO8 --> Settings --> Menu --> Skin --> GJ 6.12p_da_800x480

Note:
If it doesn't work correctly, you need to erase folder Save in iGO8/ and restart your phone
Here is the MANUAL for this SKIN, please read it first before you post question about how to use it.

I have a problem that I haven't noticed through any of the pages on this topic.

I followed the instructions that XPSWORM put out concerning this skin, and true to form, it didn't work on the first try, so I deleted the "SAVE" folder and restarted my phone. When I ran the program again, I received this message:

FFUIERROR: Unknown layer referenced Identifier=[d_AutoKraLayer]

Does anyone know what this means and how I can correct it to get the skin to work?

UPDATE: I found that someone had the same problem in post 274, pg 28 and the solution found on post 320, pg 32 worked.

I'm having a problem with the voices playing from post #1. They appear in the menu, but when I select them, nothing happens. I didn't delete the original voice (Amy) from the "voice" directory. Any help would be appreciated.

[TLJester]

Can anyone share the TTS voice packs from post #1?

How long does it take to launch IGO8 on your phones? I copied my IGO8 dir over to my friend's Palm Pro on his SD card to test it on his phone and it launches+exits almost immediately, maybe 5-7 seconds, whereas it takes a good 35-40 seconds to load on my TP2.
