Anyone use iGo8 or Oncourse 8 on their Titan?

I have tried both on my Sprint Mogul with dcd 3.26 and neither are working right. Both freeze up at the menu screen, whether simple or advanced, the next screen it locks.
I have 23.7M (or so) of free RAM after a soft reset. I've let it sit on that menu for 5 minutes straight, wondering if it were catching up. No good.
I have TomTom7, but I want something with text to speech support.

The first time you run Igo or Oncourse it goes thru your contact list and checks the address on all of them. If you have a very large contact list it could be causing it to act very slow. It only does this once, so after it finishes it won't do it again in the future.
You might also check your config file, I think it's called sys.txt, would have to search to verify, but it lists your com ports. If you have an invalid com port for your GPS it can lock up entirely. Find this file and change it to com 4 baud 4800 and then restart it, should work fine then.
Let me know if that doesn't work. I've started Igo with as little as 8mb free, it ran, tho not very well and crashed shortly afterwards, but with 23mb it should run very well. So I don't think it's a memory issue in your case.

groovy. I'll sys.txt it up and report back.

getting there.... trying different combinations of ... packages ... see what works and what doesnt.
Can you mix OnCourse with iGo?

As far as I know, OnCourse is just a licensed OEM of of Igo, I've heard that the maps, skins, themes, etc all work fine with both.
I personally haven't tried OnCourse because the word I heard was that it's a compressed .exe file which in turns requires more ram to uncompress and then run. There were several looking into uncompressing the exe file and running directly, but have not seen any confirmed threads that someone has it resolved.

yeah, im avoiding an actual install of oncourse... however, what I have, has some things in it that my igo doesnt have, as well as US poi's which my igo doesnt have. More experimenting tonight.

I too was having an issue with IGO8 not starting properly, I could enter the program but none of the icons would function.....well not really.....I would click settings and about 30 seconds later I would hear the click sound but IGO would stay at that screen and then about 1 minute later it would goto the settings screen.
After doing some research I did find that it was an issue that IGO had with
adding my contacts addresses(I'm guessing that this is a ram issue). Here is what I added to the sys.txt file to stop IGO from trying to add my contacts to its POI DB, disable_outlookpoi=1 needs to be added under [debug]. I'm pretty sure I found a sys.txt config on ppcgeeks in the vouge section.
I cannot get the TTS to work as it appears that our Titans don't have enough ram to allow all of the features of IGO to work.
I have installed DCD latest with a couple of programs installed i.e. MSVC, Oxios, DCD carrier cab(great work DCD, every rom he makes just keeps getting faster and allowing more ram to be utilized) at boot I have about 23-24mb available, when starting IGO and then minimizing IGO I have 1.3-1.4MB free ram. When trying to select the Susan TTS voice it immediately crashes with an out of memory error. I'm also using the full maps of North America, all the building files and the terrain file for USA as well. When I get a chance I'm going to try only my state and my states buildings and see if that frees up any additional ram for TTS.
Good luck

i have noticed that it wont run unless I prime the GPS, even with the [gps] code in the sys.txt

I have found the same thing, I've attached a .zip file that someone created that will give you a shortcut for astroGPS to prime the GPS and also start IGO8. You must have astroGPS installed but it works like a treat.

anyone figure out how to setup tts with any tweaks or removing some default programs for more ram? I installed dcd latest rom with nothing else but igo8 and still get that out of memory :/ Also i have igo running with no terrain and in 2d mode with no luck

So is anyone able to get Text to Speech (TTS) works on Titan?

HTC Diamond - TomTom Maps

Hi Everyone,
I have used the search function and haven't come across this yet.
When i install my tom tom software, it installs fine. Yet it installs onto the phone not the 4GB Storage.
Now this came up somewhere else and they said to fill it up and it will ask you to install it on another storage device.
Now this didn't come up I have also tried the other methods of trying to get it so the installation installs onto the phone and copy the files to internal storage and change the location of the icon. (Which I couldn't do). - just wouldn't let me im not retarded
Now my question is this.
I Have my Australia Maps: Australia.815.2086
And Tom Tom: I Have Version 7, not sure exact version number.
Now I cannot get the maps to install on this as it needs 100mb for these maps. As there isn't enough internal storage this cannot be done.
So If anyone could shed some light on this would be good.
If i don't answer here if you are after certain information my email is:
[email protected]
Cheers!

Put the maps on the storage card. The actual navigator app can go on either. Some TomTom cabs that are floating about will only install to main memory... others will give you the option.

Tried this just then with no luck just tells me that there is no maps.
Should my maps be a .cab file ?

**BUMP**
Sorry to bump this but i really would like help

If the maps installed on the internal storage and the program wont see it, your best bet would be contacting tomtom, if you have updated your phones system software and moved to a COOKED ROM then the original phones id number would have changed, when the maps are registered the id is used as part of the key hence the key changing the registered status is also changed from working to non working.
Now tomtom may be nice and give you a new registration for the device or they may say not going to happen. If the program and maps are from some other source like say Pirate Bay then you wont get any help from this forum as its very much frowned upon and posts get deleted that even try to hint at them kind of illegal shenanigans.
Hope you get your self sorted.
Regards
Nom

your maps should be a directory, not a .cab file
it has to be copied to the root of the internal storage.

Another common problem is that your map folder is actually two folders deep.
i.e. maps/maps rather than only maps.

hi.
the best option is to install tomtom to your storage card, by doing this the software defaults to the storage card for the map info.

my tomtom version cannot be installed to the storage, even though tomtom home placed the cabs there. it doesnt even ask.
the map can be on the storage, tomtom home copies it there when you select that when starting tomtom home (i can choose between internal mem and 4gb mem as target).
when tomtom is installed in your internal memory, you can move the files to the 4gb storage, and launch it from there without problems.

HOW-TO: iGO8 on TP2 with TTS and Imported Contact POI's

In order to have both TTS and Contact POI's working in iGO8 you're going to need two different versions of iGO8.
FIRST VERSION NEEDED: iGO8 v8.32.64029 (Nov 7 2008)
This version is designed for the PDA, and as such is able to geocode contact information. Install this version with the attached 64029sys.txt
At this point if everything is done correctly, iGO8 should boot normally BUT be VERY slow and unresponsive. This is GOOD! This is iGO8 Geocoding your contacts. Depending on the quantity of contacts with addresses you have, this could take a VERY long time. When it is done you will get a message similar to the following:
Geocoding finished with errors. 38 of 110 addresses found, 72 failed. Do you want to see the details?​
At this point you could see the details of the errors, which will show you all of the addresses that are not entered into Outlook in a iGO8 palatable way. You could just ignore them and be happy with what you have (unlikely), or go back into Outlook, correct the formatting errors, and try again (and continue your suffering).
This can be VERY tedious... iGO is one picky bastard. You might even have to input the addresses into iGO as destinations, see how iGO formats the addresses, and then change the Outlook contacts to match the format iGO uses for a particular address.
I have even heard that contact need to be deleted and reentered into Outlook in the proper iGO8 fashion or you will continue to get errors for particular contacts.
SYNTAX ADVICE:
not Blvd. --> Blvd (The little "." will throw an error every time)
not Blvd --> Boulevard ("Usually" iGO dislikes abbreviations)
not N. --> N --> North (This is hit or miss)
NEVER use apt# (just give up and don't try)
NO Suite # (same as above)
If you have to have apt or suite #'s AND you want iGO to geocode, then the only way to get it both ways is to use the "OTHER" address in Outlook to place the iGO friendly address and the correct address in the "Business" or "Home" Outlook address. The ones with apt or suite # will error, but the second addresses in the "Other" address without the apt or suite # will geocode as POI's fine.​
When you are done, you will be left with this little piece of GOLD... YOUR CONTACT POI's FILE ! ! !
\iGO8\save\gccache.dat​
You'll want to back this file up somewhere else for safe keeping. We don't want all this hard work to go to waste.
SECOND VERSION NEEDED: iGO8_v8.3.4.102680 (Aug 13 2009)
This is the newest PNA version that does not have the ability to geopcode contact POI's, but it is able to read the gccache.dat file created by the PDA version above AND it is capable of TTS. Install this version with the attached 102680sys.txt
You will need to install this version and simply place the gccache.dat into the iGO/save folder and iGO will do the rest for you.
Now getting iGO8 to reliably run TTS is a different story. TTS requires ALOT of RAM to run. If there is not enough RAM available (~115-120mb), then it will simply refuse to play TTS voice prompts and you will be stuck with standard voice prompts. To free up a good chunk of the necessary RAM install both NOPushInternet_v2.cab and SSK TP2 Dynamic Resource Proxy.cab. To get the rest your available RAM to acceptable levels you will need to disable TF3D, run CleanRAM, and then start iGO.
Sounds complicated? Well, fortunately itsachirpthing over at PPCGeeks has created a nice little script that does just this. The original post can be found HERE. And the original thread can be found HERE. I recommend reading both these original threads. They have additional information to get iGO8 working properly on TP2.
itsachirpthing @ PPCGeeks said:
I have a custom mort script that will turn off TF3D, run CleanRam (I have custom process enabled to exit Opera and Tmail within CleanRam), then run Igo8. Once you are finished with Igo and you exit, TF3D will restart. This took some testing, but this works everytime with the high quality TTS voices. I have had no issues. I have posted the code below, this will work on your device providing that you install CleanRam to your "device" and your IGo program is listed as "\storage card\iGO8\igo8.exe". These HQ TTS voice issues baffled me for months, but now they work consistently without a soft reset.
Again this code will stop TF3D, Run CleanRam, Start Igo... then when you exit iGo it will restart TF3D.
manilastate=ProcExists("manila.exe")
If (manilastate)
Kill("biotouch.exe")
RegWriteDword ("HKLM","Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\TouchFLO 3D","Enabled",0)
RedrawToday
endif
RunWait("\program files\htcaddicts cleanram\htcaddicts_cleanram.exe")
RunWait("\storage card\iGO8\igo8.exe")
Sleep(5000)
Kill("Repllog.exe")
While ( ProcExists("igo8.exe") )
IdleTimerReset
Sleep(500)
EndWhile
If (manilastate)
RegWriteDword ("HKLM","Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\TouchFLO 3D","Enabled",1)
RedrawToday
Run("\windows\biotouch.exe")
endif
I have attached the script to run with mort script. I hope others can benfit as well. Good luck and enjoy!

I have added this iGO script to the MortScript.cab posted here. You need it and CleanRAM.cab. Install both to the device, not the SD Card. Then just click on the Plain iGO Scipt icon in the Start Menu. The script will close TF3D, run CleanRAm, start iGO8, and when iGO8 is exited, it will start TF3D again
Inaddition to the above Script, you will need to install both NOPushInternet_v2.cab AND SSK TP2 Dynamic Resource Proxy.cab
in order to free up enough RAM. But with the above script, CleanRAM, and these two cabs, you should have enough RAM to run TTS of TP2. These CAB's are attached.
The sys.txt files attached are what works for my ATT TP2. It took many hours to find the correct setting for each iGO8 version and I am providing them to make your process easier. If they don't work or you get some other error for what ever reason... I AM PROVIDING NO TECH SUPPORT. This is simply information for your use.
Good Luck!
PS. This works best if you have two micro SD cards. One for each version of iGO. That way if you add new contact address, you can simply pop out one card, geocode the data, and transfer the new gccache.dat file to the other card.
PPS. Once you do get everything working in iGO 8 properly.... DO NOT MESS WITH ANYTHING ANYMORE!!! iGO8 is one finicky bastard and will throw a TTS temper tantrum (refuse to load TTS) if you do... I know ALL TOO WELL!

DONT ASK ME FOR COPIES OR WHERE TO GET THE ABOVE PROGRAMS....
BUY THEM or USE SOME CREATIVITY.... like GOOGLE!

Hi:
Thanks for the great info. I have a few questions. The Mortscript seems to run clean RAM, and disable TF3D, but then TF3D starts back up on its own. Is this normal?
Also, is the script supposed to also start iGo, or must this be done manually; script did not start iGo for me.
Thanks again!!

The script is as written above. If the location of iGO8.exe is not where the script is pointed you 'll have issues.
RunWait("\storage card\iGO8\igo8.exe")​
If you do not have a iGO8.exe in the above folder, you'll need to just make a second copy of application.dat in the same folder and rename it iGO8.exe. They are the same file, just different names.

Hi:
Thanks so much for your help. You were absolutely right, my .exe was in Storage Card/Program Files.
It is working well now.
Unfortunately it didn't make TTS work for me, but I have had problems with it for a LONG time, and never been able to find a fix.
Thanks anyway for everything

Hi:
Yes I am using the above mentioned Aug 13th version, but to be honest I have had this same problem since I switches to the R3 versions. Oddly enough, I only get TTS from "Amy", which isn't even a TTS voice, but her voice is limited, and doesn't include things like street names etc... When I try to use "Susan" or "Dave" which are TTS voices, they do not work at all. I have tried a million different TTS packages, as well as sys.txt edits, and still no luck.
I have searched and searched and never been able to fix it.
But anyway, thanks so much for posting your info, I am sure it will help others.

I know it is a pain in the ass... but it can work
but then again it can also stop working right after
Good Luck!

Lokmeup, thanks for the post. I found this by googling Igo8 and contacts... I'm running iGo8 (the most recent pna version) on my Imagio and of course it won't input the contacts.
I plan on following your directions but was wondering if I'll need to keep both versions available and run the PDA version every time I enter a new contact as the PNA version won't import contacts?
I miss the 'navigate to contact' from Tomtom but Tomtom doesn't seem to like the Imagio as it lags out while iGo8 runs fine.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks and DOH! Didn't see that part about the other card. The damn SD card on the Imagio is behind the back cover and the cover is a beast to remove. I'll try to keep one internal and one external and see if that works. Thanks again!

Update: iGO 8 v8.3.2.97313 (Jul 3 2009) also works for geocoding. You can have one in main memory and one on your SD card and the one in main memory will geocode for the one on the card.
Thanks again Lokmeup, you gave me back the one function iGO was missing over TT!

Not to be a nay sayer, but why in the world do you need to jump through all these hoops to get TTS to work? My TTS works fine on 102680 with Igo as installed, I'm using the Energy 6.5.1 ROM but it's worked with every ROM I've tried it on?

For all of us obsessed with flashing, a lot of chefs are adding Sense instead of just TF3D. Sense will also cause TTS not to work. I have edited the mscr to disable HTC Sense before launching igo8 (and of course renenabling it upon exiting the program)
Two versions:
One that closes Sense then launches igo
The second closes sense, runs clean ram then launces igo
Personally i hate havng to confirm the cleanup, but your choice. Either one works out for me
IMPORTANT: RENAME file extention .txt -> .mscr (xda does not permit me to upoad mscr files)

Unless I'm really confused Energy ROM Phoenix has Sense in it, and it works fine with TTS on my phone without any scripts.

rename this file and just run it like the cab file I presume ??

Its working with the Sense file. I just went out and try it out. Would you be able to create a Sense file you created for igo mortcript and the htc addicts clean ram v1.8. ? I can see the other file as a shortcut in the start menu? Would you be able to create the same one for the sense version ?
Thanks.

CoPilot Live Update For HD2

Has anyone installed the newest update of CoPilot for the HD2 (8.0.0.659-2577) who had the regular version (8.0.0.620-2577-tts) installed? I know you lose TTS, but what do you gain? Would it be worth spending $5.50 to add TTS to the newest HD2 version?
-Bob-

I'm installing it right now, but it doesn't seem to get finished for a while.
It's been going on for 30 minutes, and the install-bar doesn't show any progress yet...
This should be interesting!
Ill keep you posted!

It got finished at last
I waited for half an hour, but i got tired and pressed the start button, and closed every program that was running. After stopping the last program, the install pooped up, and asked me where I wanted to install the program. After that, it took 5 seconds, a restart, and finito'!

I did an update this afternoon without any problems. It was free for me. I unzipped the files on my Mac, copied the folder over to the memorycard and autoplay startet the installation when i put the memorycard back in the phone. No problems at all. Installation finished in seconds.

CoPilot Update
Installed the update this afternoon. No problems at all.
Also installed 'text to speech' and 'live traffic' update. Again no problems.

Weren't you charged for TTS? According to the website it's an additional $5.50US. Or did I miss something?
-Bob-

Hi
I've had it installed for nearly 3 weeks now and yes I paid for the TTS and
the Live services and I've got to say poor old tomtoms not been used since.
Its had a LOT of use the last couple weeks and it really is very very good.
I've had no delays or funny little quirks at all.
I wasn't convince the TTS was going to be much more than a gimmick
but its been really useful.
I honestly can't fault it now I've got used to it.

(link to support.alk)* for more information. (-709)", so I tried to contact CoPilot on mail and twitter. After a few mail, I got these instructions;
*I can't post links...
1) Can you uninstall CoPilot first by going into SETTINGS | REMOVE PROGRAMS and uninstall all CoPilot items (you might find two there).
2) Once completed, delete the \CoPilot folder on your Storage card
3) Extract the ZIP file again to the root of the storage (if done correctly you should see a 2577 and CoPilot folder at the root of your Storage Card)
4) Then in File Explorer browse to \Windows and delete the file called
liccp8.dat (I couldn't find this exact file, but there was a file, with a similar name, "licp8.dat", so I deleted that one)
- You may also have to go into \Program files, and delete anything from CoPilot there as well!
5) Once completed, browse to \Storage Card\2577 and tap the copilot.wmppc.cab to install
6) Launch CoPilot and you will be asked for your Product Key Code which is *****-*****-*****-*****-*****
7) You will also be asked to activate and create a CoPilot ID email address and password
This worked for me!

Well not in the UK anyway
I got the email from alkservices on the 22nd of March
and upgraded straight away cause I'm like that
Oh and no registration issues either
which was nice

I'm sorry, I may not have made myself clear. I am currently running the standard, licensed version of CoPilot, which I installed over the pre-installed version (which was also licensed) that came with the HD2. My main questions are:
1. Has anyone else running the standard, licensed version (not the pre-installed HD2 version) installed this new HD2 version? If so, were there any licensing issues?
2. When you did the install over the standard, licensed version, did you delete the old version first?
2. Has anyone noticed any additional features that were not in the original HD2 version OR the standard version? The standard version, for instance, does not link to the Footprints functions of the HD2. I'm assuming that the link exists in the new HD2 version.
Hope that makes things clearer.

With my supplied HTC HD 2 the CoPilot was on the accompanying storage card. I discarded this and installed the separately purchased CD Version of CoPilot on my own replacement 16Gb card.
To answer your questions:
1. Obviously I am running the fully licensed version and there were no licensing issues.
2. Obviously most of the old version software was discarded with the removal of the supplied storage card so I did not bother to delete the old supplied version.
3. I do not use the Footprints function.
I am absolutely delighted with the enhanced CoPilot with speed limits, Live Traffic information and the text to speech additions, etc etc

Telenav, not CoPilot
I received my T-MO HD2 today, and it has Telenav, not CoPilot, installed. I have a licensed version of CPL 8 on my TouchPro2, so tomorrow I'll figure out how to transfer it over. I do NOT like Telenav!

Footprints help.

I have a HD2, that came with a 15 day trial of CoPilot.
I want to use footprints but I don't want to pruchase CoPilot, when I click on the co-ordinates or address in Footprints it tries to open CoPilot, is there a way to get it to search the co-ordinates in google maps or orange maps?

Warning: if you try the following solution, you'll have disfunctions on your navipanel
for google maps the solution is very simple: just rename or cancel the folder CoPilot on internal memory of your HD2, or cancel the .exe of copilot inside this folder (splashscreen.exe too)
Or you can achieve the same results with a registry mod in HKLM\Software\Htc\Navisw
there's a key named SDKModule...just cancel or rename the entry (the default is \Windows\alksdk.dll)
choose the way you prefer

can u explain this detailed pls. is there a way to auto transfer coordinates from footprints to igo or other gps software.

any ideas how to transform the coordinates???

I managed to launch iGO8 with footprints, but that's all..It's just launching the igo application, but is not making a route to my footprint coordinates.I don't think this is possible.Igo must have a script to know that it has some coordinates to load. Hopefully HTC will release a .dll or something for other gps software then CoPilot or GoogleMaps.
All the best

hope to be fastly done, actually footprint is so nice application but without coordinate transfer it becomes almost totally useless.
i hope that problem to be solved.
meanwhile copilot looks like a kid toy in respect to igo, so its nonsense to use footprint only with copilot ...
