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

To you this software works?

Would like to know also, the thought of such a large screen and scribbling notes... I think this would swing me to the HD over from the Pro!
I don't know this software yet, but you answered your own question by posting the link.
Look at http://www.virtualspaghetti.com/index.php?index=30&language=en
and search for:
New Version 2.5:
* Now Compatible with 240x400 screens (WQVGA)
Samsung i900 Omnia,...
* Now Compatible with 480x800 screens (WVGA)
Xperia X1 Sony Ericsson, HTC Touch HD,...

it installs fine, it is compatable with the HD (version 2.5 supports 480x800)...
...but, after installing the program on the HD, i realised it messed up the screen, when you try and make a note, its not calibrated, you tap one part of the screen but it thinks your touching a different part.

i guess its not compatable with the HD, the resolution is supported, but its probably another problem, the website mentions the x1 is supported and doesnt mention the HD. im guessing this is the reason why. You will just have to wait untill they release something that works for us.
All I know is that the webpage says it is kompatible to the hd. (see attachment)
But if you got problems then there may be a bug.
Or they didn't test the new version on the hd.
Anyway.
I don't have this program.
And I don'T got my hd yet.
The developers claim this works on the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 which is also WVGA, but I have the exact same problems as reported here.
News from the developers...
---------------------------------------------------
Hi,
First of all, sorry for the delay.
We have discovered some screen problem with the Touch HD.
This problem is know and will be fixed in our next release(available soon).
Best Regards,
Virtual Spaghetti Support.

I do have exactly this effect on my XPERIA X1. Hopefully the developers from spagetti can fix that because I'd really like to use the soft.
Hi everyone...
I've been playing around with OpenGL ES, struggling to get it to compile, and eventually succeeding to discover that some of the parameters I set wouldn't work on the Diamond.
I've fixed all of the issues that I know of and now I want to see what devices a little test application will work on.
Hopefully, it should work on all the MSM720X based devices, and anything else that supports OpenGL|ES, that support can either be hardware or software acceleration, so those of you without the more recent devices can give it a shot and see what happens.
You should be presented with a triangle, that you can reorientate with mouse click and drags...
If people could test it out and see what happens, I'd be very happy
It may even lead somewhere!
Tested and verified on:
HTC Touch Diamond
HTC Touch Diamond2
Xperia X1 (sortof...)
HTC Touch HD
HTC Touch Pro
it works perfectly on my HD !

Excellent.
Are the framerates good? (I know there's no display of framerates, but does it feel smooth?)
XDA Diamond Pro
I've tested it on my german O2 XDA Diamond Pro and it works very well and feels very smooth - even with chainfires gfxboost being disabled...

Fast and smooth for me
Did you do it in C++ or Managed Code?

C++. Which is why I had trouble setting it up. Koush's managed API is easier to set up, but slower to run...
Attached is a new version that utilises a wrapper for some OpenGL ES functions, and l3v5yExtendedFunctions for some window creation etc...
It should have comparable frame rates, memory usage etc.
It also utilises the accelerometer of HTC devices, tap the center button (or anything that sends VK_RETURN) do toggle it.
You need to copy both dlls and the exe to your device, then run the exe.
Fast and smooth on my diamond here
and the new version is flickering a bit by fast moves
I don't know, if this has supposed to work on Iolite (different chipset), so i tried it . App even didn't start. It shows usual error with "either it is not signed..."

That probably means your device doesn't have a libGLES_cm.dll file. Which means that by default there's no OpenGL ES support.
Something that may be of interest to people here...
This is a game built off the framework created earlier... Should work on the same devices
Tested all apps on HTC Jade and all run smoothly..
Tested on x1 Test1 in post1 works but freezes for a second here and there.
test2 run but displays hello! and then closes.
and in the coin thread i reported it worked flawlessly on my x1

Kinda odd...
But since the coin works, it may be because of the version of the dlls... No idea why... I'll have a look though!

umm... sorry. test 2 doesn't work. as above - just brief hello and exits.
Absolutely amazing work!
This is great. I tried the two tests and your coin app on a htc td - they were all perfectly smooth...
Do you think it's possible to add support for 3ds max model files? That would be completely fantastic!
Thank you for your work, I really appreciate it. Now I can show my iPhone friends that my device isn't just a lagging piece of crap..

do u want the screen to auto rotate? if so thats not dealing with this patch but we can still help, just need some clarification.
my bad thought this was tied to the chanfire g-sensor cab...i see its the expo/iq tweaker app. haven't installed that yet.

Will any app definately enable TomTom to run?

Hello,
No response maybe because nobody have it for the test -
I receive my hd mini, next week i will give a try.
@+++
I'll try to check tomorrow; along with Slingplayer, Mobile Shell, Calendar Touch, Coreplayer, HiCalc... Just a question of whether developers think WM6.5 HVGA or WP7 devices will be the biggest market over the next few months.

Thanks in advance.
Looking forwared to hear more
TomTom 7.915 working without a problem on HD Mini; first lock took about a minute, subsequent locks about 10s.
Also Coreplayer decoding DVD-ripped 700Mb movie files with a benchmark of about 105%, which is much better than I was expecting.

I can only get sound working but no image, I tried .avi & .mp4 files
I have Coreplayer 1.3.6 build 7427; the trick is to change the Menu->Tools->Settings->Video output type to Raw Framebuffer; GDI seems to work too, but not as well.

It seems to work with both but I don't see a notable difference.
TomTom is very important for me.
Now I'm just waiting for the HD Mini to be released in Denmark.
I agree.....no TomTom no phone......
You can order already the WWE version on various places....
using qvga tomtom and no problems. some minor crashing text on the gps status screen but nothing to worry about.
