Here is the link to their site. The latest download is on the main page. You can also check out download link on the right side in the menu. There are links to Amigo as well as older versions if you need them.

try going to page 37 on this thread and downloading the "lower quality TTS voices" i used those and then it worked. also, delete the "save" folder on your IGO8 folder so it resets the porgram and then soft reset. hope that helps

Using iGo8 for few weeks now and at present stage i would not recommend it. TTS does not work most of the time(even after fresh restart it works about 50% of the time(60% used RAM b4 iGo8 launch)) and about 30% of the time GPS lags badly(record is about 2 min update position lag 10 times in a row(would show i am about 2 blocks away from my actual position)). I will try the lower Q TTS voices but what about 2nd problem, anyone has that?

Of the three programs I've tried on my phone (Garmin XT, CoPilot 8, IGO

Garmin is the only one with bad lag. The other two work great. My biggest complaint with IGO8 is bad routing for long trips.

Ugh... this is killing me. I just got my TP2, upgraded from a Touch which ran igo with tts without any problems.

I'm on Juicy R5, I've downloaded all of the attached files and found some of the low quality files in the dark corners of the internet, none of which have worked yet.

I was able to get it to work by disabling sense, but I love my new eye candy!

I'm sad to see this can't work on my brand new phone, yet it worked on my weenie phone that I upgraded from....

Edit:

Ok after deleting all the associated files/voices from my card, and the save folder. I was able to use the US-voices.rar files to make Dave (TTS) v1.0 (Mod.1) work.... he sounds stupid but hey, it's a start!

Hi guys, been struggling for a while here... I've searched, and failed :T

1. Seems like the TTS part is too flimsy to really rely on to work correctly. I couldn't even get the test voices to talk (the screen where you choose the speaker). Just right after loadup, i only have ~80MB ram free. Seems pretty bad that you'd need so much ram just to get TTS working. I've followed and re-read the instructions MANy times and can't seem why this doesn't work. Normal voice non-TTS ones work fine.

2. Can anyone comment on whether the import of contacts actually works? I've tried a couple of times (deleting iGO8 folder) and rebuilding but my "Contacts" section doesn't seem to have my contacts at all. In fact, trying to configure available POI seems very blank, but searching on the map for POI yields results. I guess navigating to Contacts isn't a heavily used feature, but be nice if it worked.

Is there a debug mode that traces errors out to file for troubleshooting?

Also, I'm running TP2 on Sprint Juicy Rom R6. I also tried on another TP2 stock 6.1 and same result...
