NavNGo iGo 8 for the X1

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
[interface]
resolution_dir="400_240"
vga=1

Thanks! I was wondering this whole time why they were all 400x240!

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!!!

Hi to everybody,
I thought about using the Garmin, but if the Igo could be used on the X1 it would be better still.
Do you have novelty?
Thanks

I know but vito is way to "heavy" to load, this is why i need a native app to show that alphabet on the side of the right screen.

It was standard on my diamond. I am using the latest official Orange ROM v 1.93
Maybe it wasn't standard on earlier roms ?

it replaces htc album, with the new one from diamond 2. the link is in the windows folder if you didnt have album installed before.
the only difference i noticed was that it is a little more snappier (faster)

thank you for posting
where did you get the stock ROM?
thanks

Does it replace anything in the X1 or is it a standalone app?

hey.
how soon do u guys think we can have tf3d from diamond2 or touch pro2. i hear they have tf3d in landscape mood and are WVGA. can wait to hav those for xperia

Am using the touch it rom. Will this replace the default tflo album?

Yes its a bit snappier (a subjective adjective).
The fonts in the options menu have changed.

if dutty ports his newest rom to x1 then we can have landscape manilla ASAP.. but as far as i know dutty is the only one with the files and has his rom protected so ppl cant easily get the files.

I think i don't get it. I've installed it and no new icon in start menu. Then i found HTC_Album.exe in windows folder and started it. That worked but I didn't get the point. How do I change the displayed folder and what is the purpose of the software anyway?

yes. it replaces original album app.
i did not put shortcut in programs folder as most has album installed, and it would be 2 shortcuts or none depending on language in rom then
the shortcut is in win. dir for thoose who want it.

But I can't even zoom a picture. You are required to use the zoom slider on Diamond 2 / Touch Pro 2 which we don't have on X1.
Also, I can't browse through the pictures while in full screen using touch gestures. It's prety useless then?

Thanks. As this is related. Does anybody know how to get the new email wizard called up instead of the old one?
I hope im not hijacking but I figured it was directly related. Why should someone install the new one when they can't do it without running a shortcut?

How do I upgrade Opera? It's quite a few thousand builds newer than the one I'm running, but the installer says that the old version cannot be uninstalled. If I just continue with installation, there's bound to be issues.

Not necessarily. It is almost identical, files wise. It shouldn't be an issue to uninstall it if you have issues. You prolly have opera cooked in, so it will never be able to be uninstalled.

Thank you for the great sharing!
Im just wondering, is it possible to port the contact application, which integrates all your conversations (e.g. emal, sms, phone history) with a particular person

did any1 try Diamond2 Sensor with apps regedit ?
and what is supposed to do ?

When I installed the keyboard the Compact Qwerty keyboard disappeard! But the full keyboard is defnitely better.. Any way to get the compact qwerty back..?

I already have. The only thing we are waiting for is the new manila from xboxmod. The contact editor is 90% tied into manila. So it is useless without it.

It is to auto-rotate without the need for third party apps. There is an app called G-Config that configures the sensor for apps that aren't already supported.

That is one of the drawbacks from some people. As far as I can see the compact qwerty went away with this new keyboard.

awesome collection, my respect goes to the devs and the enthusiasts, who took the time to port 'em

here are the icons. They are all contained in this dll. Manually insert them or link to the dll. BIG thanks to carburano for this.

if I use Diamond2 Sensor with apps regedit does not function well in the album photos horizontal photos will not change

HTC Album with facebook

Hi,
Im looking for a HTC Album with facebook integration. I mean not only to upload some photos to facebook, but also to view albums of my facebook friends on it. Does anyone know where can I find cab? I know that there are some roms that contain it, but I dont want another rom.
Thx

Well if you have a CDMA TP2 you can use Mighty Mouse's ROM which has the social network engine in the HTC Album.

Try this one...

I just flashed to the newest Dec. 6th version of MightyROM and the Social Networking has been rescinded, because of bugs I was told. So I have been looking around for a good .cab that will re-insert the awesome Album integrated Facebook & Youtube uploader; I used to have it on my TP1 before I upgraded to TP2 (here is the link: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=94990)
I got that to work beautifully on my TP1, I'm just not sure of the TP2 is a different story, especially with the MightyROM. Maybe I'd be better off upgrading to the most current .cab of the HTC Album?

Oh NO, insufficient permissions! Any help there? I am on stock sprint rom with 2.1. Thankee!

Try sdkcerts.cab first, then the program you are trying to install.

Hey thanks, I did get it to work but the albums and menu bar is in the middle of the screen in portrait and it looks plain outa wack on landscape?!

Im not sure if it has a registry to force it to landscape or not, you need to check, I just had those in my "APPS" folder, they could be test code, not sure. The sdkcerts should be good though...

Facebook Cab
This may work for you as well

thanks Vitamin, I have tried that program, terribly written, eck, uninstalled. Thanks however!
