This is NOT a warez question.
My last post was deleted by the moderator Gsleon3 with this reason, (see below).
I think that the question is totaly in order and Im sending the same message as I sent to Navngo.
Hi,
I recently bought my self a new phone with built in GPS, (SonyEricsson Xperia).
I have had TomTom for years on my phones before but was really disappointed by their way of handling longtime customers regarding the possibilities to upgrade maps or the program. I was told to upgrade to a price the same as buying a new licens which I think is very unthankful when I have been a customer for 5 years and upgraded two times before.
I have read a lot of good reviews on the web about your product iGO8 and would like to know if it’s possible to run it on the WVGA resolution of my new Xperia.
Please let me know because I want to buy a navigation program as soon as possible.
I have seen sites regarding changing skins for iGO, if I buy the software, would that mean that I’m not allowed to modify the look of the program?
Best regards,
Miki

Being as this is an issue only on CRACKED & HACKED versions of NavNGo IGo8, your thread has been removed. We do NOT tolertate warez or piracy here at XDA-Developers. Warez or Piracy related posts are grounds for review & usually result in a one week or greater ban, even for first offenses.
This is a warning. Do NOT discuss warez related versions, hacks, fixes, etc... on XDA. Go elsewhere for that. You are probably asking your question here because the site you got your warez version from is shut down. Well guess what? It is shut down thanks to NavNgo & Igo8.
Where is the problem. Shure, you can run IGO8 on Xperia. You have a Card Slot and you can run IGO8 with the original skin. If you not like it, you find many skins in the web. Good luck for buy.
Well the problem is, that according to Navngos site, they dont support WVGA and they havnt listed Xperia as a supported model. This doesnt have to mean that it wont work. But I dont want to buy a program that doesnt work.
I have read about people making it possible to use 800x480 skins.
The only thing I want to know is, does it work with 800x480 and Navngos standard skin.
When you write, "sure, you can run iGo8 on the xperia", does that mean that you have done so or are your only saying so because the xperia has a card slot?
/Miki
You can run IGO8 on PC to, why not run on Xperia. I told you, that you have many skins for this sulution, but I have no Xperia, that you can trust me to 100%.
Im sorry Neo130, but why do you even bother to write anything here when you clearly dont own a Xperia. I get the impression that your experiance with WM devices are very poor when you compare the xperia with a regular PC. I also thought I made it clear that my question was if it was possible to use the standard skin. Im not intrested in other skins. The only reason to look at other skins would be to modify the 640x480 skin to be a 800x480 skin if the Navngo dont have a 800x480 skin.
If you have information regarding a WVGA skin that looks like the standard then please let me know.
I havent got any answer from Navngo yet. I havent got any answer from this forum that the standard skin works. So right now it looks like I will have to look for another Nav program. I wont be buying a software where I will have to make a skin by my self and then hassle with getting it to work. If I know there is a WVGA skin just like the original and that it aint hard to make it work, then maybe Ill buy the program but for now Ill wait.
If any one out there has another nav.program that you like and that works on the Xperia, (not TomTom), please let me know.

hi,
Yesterday was an post wich was deleted becaus of moderathor thoth that it was discusion abaut hacked programs.
the thtead abaut tomtom survived. install tomtom and download free map to test the programm.that is tomtom option.
igo8 has also trial .and skins are free. just download , rename data.zip and place in igo folder.
I think the thred was delated because there was link for skin for igo to page where YOu can download also cracked progs.
anyway Ill try to get igo working on x1 sense it was reported to work.
and let YOu know whot is whot.
and for information I personaly dont like Igo8. I have miomap c520 and I think miomap 3.3 has better interface.I dont need hauses on map, like igo 8 has.
buy igo 8 and find in google skin with 400_240
then rename it to data.zip place in igo 8 directory.
then edit sys in program folder. not sdcard.so it stands like this
[folders]
app="%SDCARD%/iGO8"
[interface]
maxzoom2d=6000000
minzoom2D=40
show_exit=1
skin="ui_igo8"
resolution_dir="400_240"
vga=1
[rawdisplay]
class="landscape"
highres=1
screen_x=800
screen_y=480
that`s all
Thank You Arnisv.
I totaly missed Mio, it does look nice. I dont care about the 3d buildings, probably the first thing to turn off.
What Im after is a good looking GUI, a fast program, fast calculating routes and fast when updating the screen. Its also a must that it should be possible to enter a streets name befor the city. You cant do that with tomtom and in stockholm thats a real pain. Tomtom wont find an address if you only write Stockholm and the street name. You have to be more specific and enter that areas name intstead of Stockholm. Even if I live in Stockholm and have been around everywhere I still dont know all the area names or exact where their boundarys start and stop, and many times due to that Tomtom couldnt find the street.
Didnt find a downloadable trial version of iGO8. I would be very grateful if you could try if it works on the Xperia.
Thanks,
Miki
igo8 has the same search like miomap.
@mikiqtek, sorry for my poor english, but I write that you can run IGO8 on a PC to. That means, a lot of skinner are working for IGO8. And I see skins for your Xperia. You never write from a standart skin IGO. You write, can IGO8 run on Experia - And I say YES, because I read the skinnerforums. And my experience from PPC is about 8 years. I hope you find your answer.
Why not use google maps? It's free...
What's the difference?
Theres a 800x480 skin here

The difference is 3D navigation with turn by turn voice directions, GUI optimised for driving, and full map sets, vs. a 2D map that only beeps at turns, is too complicated to truly read while driving, and has to be downloaded on the fly meaning it will not work if you enter an area with no service.

I am trying to. But I am having problems with the data.zip file. I can´t find the right data.zip with includes the 400_240 (or 240_400) folder running with the version of the iGO8.exe.

Hi
I still have problems with igo on my x1. i loaded the skin from above and actualized both data.zip and sys.txt.
i see the start up screen for about 20 seconds then it crashes.
does anyone know where the problem is?
no problems occur while using the original and official NavNGo iGo 8 software release of the program which is downloadable through their content manager application - as the s/w was updated to officially support Omnia´s screen resolution, the solution described in this thread will work with an official and legal copy of the program, I assume.

I tried both iGO2006 and iGO8 to run on my XPERIA X1 but unfortunately I did not get either one working, though both apps did work fine on my HTC P3300. I now use TomTom Navigator 7 and that runs just fine. That also uses the complete "screen real estate" resulting in fantastic map views, without stretching whatsoever. Hope this helps.

I'm a long-time fan of NavNGo's iGo navigation solution, and since yesterday also a happy owner of an X1. However, these two are currently not on speaking terms with each other. Installation seems to work fine, but clicking the application icon results in, well, nothing.
Searching the net in general and this forum in particular has shown me that this has been a problem with a number of HTC devices. I have tried a couple of the proposed solutions for some of them, but none have worked so far. Has anyone managed to get iGo 8 (or, for that matter, 2006 - I have both) running on the X1 and, if so, how? Any help would be appreciated.
did you update to the latest version with the contentmanager? also try to disable agps on your x1 and try again, but what also can happen is that it dont likes the WVGA Resolution for that i dont have an solution.

Using latest version. I read in other forums about disabling agps, but saw other posts claiming that was not necessary with the latest version. Either way, if I'd want to try it, how do I disable agps?
I think what you have to do is find a skins that is wvga compatible for it. I've been looking all over the net to find one, but I cant. I'm sure this is the problem.

I've seen this site before, but when you look at the included resolutions in the folders they only have 400x240.
Download the skin with 400x240 resolution and modify the sys.txt to include the following lines

resolution_dir="400_240"
vga=1

well.. Did it work?
I'm also a fan of iGO8 and I'm getting my X1 tomorrow.
So I really hope it works ok.
one thing you could try is to add the sys.txt lines without using the skin. Does the original skin resize if you do that?

Oh sorry for the mix up, I've basically been preparing all my software that I was using on my omnia to use on my X1 that I will get in a few days, So I won't be able to test this yet, but I believe that the skin was the only think that would've been a problem on the x1, but now it's solved. If it doesn't work even with the skin, I have tomtom7 that I know works on the x1 (according to other owners). But I can't wait to have mine!!!

could you please make screenshots of your navigation software?
how does it look on a 800x480 screen? resized, black bar, skewed, small icons.. ?
thanks.
There will be a Co-Pilot specific version coming out - http://blog.copilotlive.net/?p=208
I presume v7 works fine, but just doesn't make the most of the resolution.
Guys,
If you have a Navigation program 'successfully' working on your machine could you post it at the topic 'Programs/Utilites & Games ~ working on the Touch HD' here~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442663

How did you get the software up and running?
Whenever I try to start the program (installation works fine), it crashes after the starting screen saying the specific resolution can't be loaded/found.
Have you changed the sys.txt in any way?
Where did you get you version from.
Did you try the skin supporting 800x480 resolution?

Is it possible that someone can check if TomTom 6 Navigator is working on Touch HD because i want to use this application that i already have.
It wil make my choice very easy then!

Why would HTC make a phone that, on the face of it, seems to have a lot of programs that just won't work, particularly my (ancient) TomTom6. And what about TCMP ? How would I run my videos ? I'm after one as well, but am now a little nervous that it may be false economy.
i cant get TomTom 6 to work. could be something that i am doing, anyone else having this problem?

Me too. I got my Touch HD this morning and tomtom 6 won't even start up. I think part of it is because of the screen resolution of the Touch HD
Garmin Mobile XT 5.00.20wp works fine (have only tried SA March 2008 mapset). So far no obvious problems experienced though I have not extensively tested everything.
I also loaded MobiTrak's HandyMAP Pro PPC V5.2 (Build 1129) with SA and USA maps. The program Handymap2.exe fails when switching maps, and once a map is opened it won't open again (file not found error). A soft reset does not fix this problem.
After over six weeks finally an answer from TomTom - could not be worse, it reads:
"Navigator 7 is a software product that is only available as an exclusive offering that comes preloaded on specific handsets that are available only in Europe. As such, unfortunately we do not have a Navigator 7 solution for your handsets. Outside of TomTom’s policy, our exclusivity with the handset manufactures prevents us from complying with your request. We do apologize for any inconvenience."
Is that no the best way to loose customers....
Although there are other ways to get TomTom 7 on your Xperia, that sucks indeed.
Looks like you won't get an official one. That sucks of them to be honest. I'm not an 'honorable' customer myself as I use a cracked one. But this is a fail-safe way of making paying customers go away.
If they won't sell it, that's their fault...
There are plenty of places to get TT7 on the net and it works a treat on the X1.
IGO8 is so much better than Tomtom anyway. I love igo8.
TomTom 7 - v7.910.9185 is the latest version available to download, works great on x1 but I agree igo 8 is better.

Not really.
IGO has no automatic intelligent traffic rerouting based on real world traffic jams. No automatic updating of speed camera's (fixed & mobile). Igo does have a clickable navigation screen though. I.e. you can click on something your passing and see what it is. Tomtom 6 misses that, don't know about 7.
for me, tomtom 7.910 works like a charm
Did you have to do anything special to get 7.910 installed on yor X1. Everytime i try it comes up with device not supported.

There is however a workaround. Download Resource Hacker, open a copy of TomTom Navigator.exe and remove the resource under HI_RES_AWARE. Save the file and replace on device.
Then I would recommend to install the navigation panel to easily run tomtom in landscape without having the keyboard out. If you use panels, that is ..
The text in the statusline is getting bigger as well, and portrait navigation is a bit narrow.
Hi all,
I have been using TOMTOM 7 so far which works well on my Iolite. I saw iGO8 working and it looked quite good, so attempted to install it on mine too. After installation, I have been trying to get it working since yesterday
The installation is always successful. But when I try to launch the application, the curser changes as if the phone is doing something / about to launch the application, but then nothing happens.
I dug out other threads which are about other phones having trouble with iGO8 but did not find a thread about Iolite.
Has any one tried to install iGO on their Iolite / XDA Guide / Touch cruise 09 so far (successfully or unsuccessfully) ??
I would be very grateful if I can get help on this issue please

Try this: edit your sys.txt and compare.
My sys.txt:
[project]
name="igo8_pda"
[folders]
app="%SDCARD%/iGO8"
[interface]
maxzoom2d=6000000
show_exit=1
remember, you have 2 sys.txt, on the SD-Card in "IGO8", and in "\Programs\IGO8". booth must be the same.
Greetings!
Many thanks mirko.prinz,
I will try that.
Is that from an Iolite or a different phone?
I've noticed that Iolite is not in the supported list on iGO website but iGO actually looked so good that I am still determined to get it working.
I will report how it goes later.
Thanks
My current sys.txt says:

OK, I tried that, still the same. Seems as if its about to do something, and then nothing
Anything else I should try ?

Maybe, you have the wrong version? They are PDA and PNA-Versions. What you was buying? What is the version-number?
Mine is iGO 8. Or do you need the exact version number like 8.0.0.335 etc ?
I can check the exact version when I get home, unless you know how to check it in my phone? I have the iGO8 directory and the included files in my phone and can check it now if you can tel lme where to check please?
Thanks.
On the phone only, when it runs. Look at home. Maybe, some versions not running on iolite. My version is 8.3.2.97313 They makes trouble with EZInput 2.1 (makes self many characters "Ä" in the input-line)
OK, try this: backup your IGO-files, then change data.zip and branding.zip from here
http://www.4shared.com/file/153951601/9e4f5553/BRANDING.html
http://www.4shared.com/file/153952106/17d1799b/DATA.html
When it not helps, uninstall IGO, take the files from the unpacked IGO8-fix.zip,
(http://www.4shared.com/file/153952792/c5f37a79/IGO8-fix.html)
put it in your folder named iGO8 of the SD-Card and then reinstall it (autorun from the folder 2577)
Don´t forget, backup your files befor!
Greetings!
Thanks, I wil ltry these fixes when I get home this eve and will report back.

Last night I started to try the changes but got side tracked by the following circumstances !
Firstly I thought I should check the version I have been trying on my Wife’s phone (XDA Orbit 2 / Polaris). So I installed the program, and then added the maps etc. Started the program and it worked flawlessly.
Now the wife was happy and that means I was too. Apart from that I knew that the installation and the maps etc itself have no problems. So it must be that this iGO is just not compatible with Iolite.
Then, I thought I will re-install the program clean, before trying your changes. But this time I tried a different version which is iGo 8.3.4.102680 .
Seems like this is quite different from the other iGO8 version I was trying previously. Unfortunately I never got that version to ever start or even display the splash screen so I don’t know exactly what version it was.
But after installing iGo 8.3.4.102680 on my Iolite, I was nicely surprised when the program actually displayed the initial splash `screen ( as this is the first time I have seen it working on an Iolite). I waited and the program actually started
The problem is, that because I had the old maps from the other version, iGO says that the maps are out of date and need updating.
So for the benefit of others, at least now we (Iolite owners) know that version 8.3.4.102680 definitely works on Iolites (even though the iGO website does not include Iolite in the supported devices).
Unfortunately I don’t have the maps for iGO 8.3.4.102680
mirko.prinz.... If no other development tonight, I will re-install the old version tonight and go through your fixes you mentioned above. Sorri didn’t get a chance last night due to seeing (some) light at the end of a (different) tunnel if you know what I mean
So now I have two versions, one with maps (that doesn’t work on Iolite) and one that works with Iolite (but doesn’t have the maps) !!
So I would be very grateful if someone here could donate the UK maps for testing this version pleeeeez ??????
Unless someone also knows how to use the old maps with the new iGO versions?
When you a little bit understand german, you should look at here
Greetings!

But after installing iGo 8.3.4.102680 on my Iolite, I was nicely surprised when the program actually displayed the initial splash `screen ( as this is the first time I have seen it working on an Iolite). I waited and the program actually started
The problem is, that because I had the old maps from the other version, iGO says that the maps are out of date and need updating.
So for the benefit of others, at least now we (Iolite owners) know that version 8.3.4.102680 definitely works on Iolites (even though the iGO website does not include Iolite in the supported devices).
Unfortunately I don’t have the maps for iGO 8.3.4.102680
mirko.prinz.... If no other development tonight, I will re-install the old version tonight and go through your fixes you mentioned above. Sorri didn’t get a chance last night due to seeing (some) light at the end of a (different) tunnel if you know what I mean
So now I have two versions, one with maps (that doesn’t work on Iolite) and one that works with Iolite (but doesn’t have the maps) !!
So I would be very grateful if someone here could donate the UK maps for testing this version pleeeeez ??????
Unless someone also knows how to use the old maps with the new iGO versions?

Many thanks mirko.prinz and stdk,
I will check out all your links tonight and will report on how it goes.
Regards,

Hi mirko.prinz and stdk,
Once again thanks for the files and solutions.
I installed the maps to test, and turns out that some how the maps I have are not compatible. After installing the UK maps from stdk (thanks again) the country changed from HUNGARY to the UK (initially I could only see Hungary with my own maps and thats how far it got before I replaced the maps with the above given links).
So finally its all wrking. Thanks to both of you, hopefully I wont get lost again
Next step will be to find out how to back up my own original ROM, so I can test some of the better ones from here
Thank you.

keyboard problem
Dear all,
You are all treating the issue of "Ä" typing characters as you have a workaround for that. I've tried changing the keyboard to the default keyboard of Win 6.1 and had the surprise of being capable of introducing street name, country etc, but when I got back into writing emails I had the ezinput 2.1 keyboard again as default. Opened Igo and started having the same problems with the "Ä" character.
Any other workaround? It's hard to get into registry and change the keyboard each time you want to use Igo instead of SMS or emails, not to mention is not ergonomically to have to switch from one keyboard to another. Is there any other keyboard which works ok both with Igo and any other applications in which occurs writing?
Thanks,
Alex

On the phone only, when it runs. Look at home. Maybe, some versions not running on iolite. My version is 8.3.2.97313 They makes trouble with EZInput 2.1 (makes self many characters "Ä" in the input-line)

I think, I was reading anywhere about a programm, that changes input-methods. It is a while ago. Must use google.

You can try fingerkeyboard 2.1, i find it a good compromise. It works in igo 8, and is finger friendly...
But ezinput still keeps resetting itself as default!

hello,
i've got tomtom 7 installed on my HD2 but the keyboard is extremely small. any idea how to fix that? changing in to large in preferences doesn't make any difference, it's about the size of the status bar on the bottom. the same version of tomtom on my i-mate 9502 works fine. any ideas? thanks.
Make room for a small one
Ironic as it sounds but go into your settings and change the keyboard to smal... its the same on the HD from what I can remember.. If it dont wok dont flame me as I dont own either device but did this on my mates HD and it worked ;-)
didn't work for me.
You need wvga version instead of qvga
I have tomtom 7.916 and the keyboard is perfect. Maybe you have an old tomtom version ?
I have found by using the BSB tweeks mod and enable the TOM TOM Prog to turn to landscape when you turn phone, the keyboard is made much much bigger
thanks for your replies.
small keyboard is the same as large, doesn't matter what i chose.
also, i don't know where i can get the wvga version as the only one i've got is the qvga.
i have tomtom 7.450 which is not newest but it worked fine on my vga screen in i-mate 9502.
I have a cab for 7.9 but it won't acknowledge my perfectly legal map.

We're not allowed to post links to warez sites, but if you were to look at the usual suspect ppc web sites I'm sure there are ways to activate your maps
As far as I know TomTom don't officially support the HD2 yet, but there are ways around this. If you have a legit map and legit TomTom software I personally don't have any issues with you using an alternative source for your downloads.
