Hi, I cannot open the website for download sofeware...
how about your guys???
it seems strange...

[markolomew]

I'm having a different issue. After I install everything from the tutorial on the first page, everything loads fine. My only issue is that when ever I press
(1) point of interest (other than search by name)
(2) detour
(3) or the "arrival" button on the bottom right hand of the map screen

When it does crash, it gives me the dreaded 646 error (error: assert failed at cdp_staticlistfield.cpp: 646)

Ideas? Beyond this, it is very stable.

Thanks Hollowman great download!
I am having a minor problem with the Garmin software however.
The 5" screen does not seem to fit the last few mm of the graphics. Is there any way to tune the image to fit the screen?
Thanks again,
Alan

Hi,

Type: S3C2440 multi-platform
Software: WinCE .NET 4.20 [Korean]
Processor: ARM ARM920
Resolution: 480x234 pixels, 65536 colors
GPS Brand Name: Pontus HND-7000K

I get an error when running Garmin\RunGMX\Garmin.exe:

explorer.exe
0xC000001C
82C207768

If I edit out:

#Kill explorer.exe
#If(ProcExists("explorer.exe"))
#Kill("explorer.exe")
#EndIf

I don't get the error.

On the device I can't install anything to the root... All APP's and other stuff are stored in the Folder:

/UserFlash/APP/

Here are a few screen shots:


Under your 1st post
SOFTWARE UNLOCK CODE / ACTIVATION:
3) GarminXT should load up and give you a list of some options. <-- Nothing Happens...

Do I have to edit the file: Garmin.mscr more to set up Environmental Variables?

What other info do you need from me to help?

Thanks..

[iamrico00]

Is there any way to auto start the garmin xt program without having to go into the select nav and pick it? Thanks

A gazillion thanks to you Hollowman. I've been trying to figure out how to get Garmin software on my GPS for sometime now with no results. Got a cheap Nextar X3-03 a few years back and it seemed I could only run the junky software that came installed on it. Your instructions are straight to the point and an asset to the entire Austech community including a Yank from the
States like me.

Hi all,I have a navigator G35 gps unit currently with Destinator 7,Igo8,and GARMIN for Windows CE with Australia + NZ 2010 Map installed.
Destinator and Igo8 work fine, however Garmin wont detect any satellites?
I have the com port set to 7 (which is what Destinator and Igo8 are set to).
Any suggestions?
Regard,crowy.

Would like an answer to this as well Have tried port splitter, setting it to port 7 (57600) same as tomtom software thats working fine but still no go?
Anyone got this going on one of these or similar?

I also have G35 GPS and am unable to get Garmin mobile XT software to detect the satellite. Have tried all available ports, but still no go. Wondering if anybody else has managed to get Garmin software working on this GPS? And what do I need to change to get it running.

Also found that Navig8r inocorrectly lists the resolution of the G35 as 480x272 (normally for widescreen model). Ran system utility and tells me the resolution is 320x240.

Its been a while since garmin xt v5.00.20 has been released for win ce... has there been any newer versions?

Garmin xt v5.00.30 is around for winCE 6 not sure if it works on older winCE 5. but its reported by some users to be slow with a frew problems. So stick with v5.00.20 if its operating fine.

I follow this guide to unlock garmin and still lock. I have a china 7 inch screen gps DVD unit. I did the sw.unl and did not do anything. did i missed anything

Here is a fix for mio c520 for those having trouble connecting to gps device.
Download portsplitter V1.31 for wince 5.0 from and run on pc,then install on storage card
device wil have to plugged into computer

place port splitter in rungmxt directory.then click on port splitter. exe and set up.

I set input port as com2, 57600, Autostart. Then Com0 as Output. exit.open again to see if settings are saved
then press start
This creates the file. I then checked to make sure that settings.dat is in RunGMXT directory,

modified Garmin.mscr as following.

Errorlevel("warn")

If(WndExists("Garmin Mobile XT"))
Show("Garmin Mobile XT")
Exit
EndIf

#Run Port Splitter if not exists
If(not ProcExists("Port Splitter.exe"))
Run(SystemPath("ScriptPath")"Port Splitter.exe")
Sleep(500)
EndIf

#Run Garmin Mobile XT.
#This script will not go to the next command before que.exe completely shut down
RunWait(SystemPath("ScriptPath")"..AppsWMque.exe")

#Stop Port Splitter before killing it
#If the port splitting are not stopped before killing the process,
#it will not work again even you run Port Splitter again without soft reset
If(WndExists("Port Splitter V1.31"))
#Stop button
SendCommand("Port Splitter V1.31", 1010)
Sleep(500)
#Exit button
SendCommand("Port Splitter V1.31", 2)
Sleep(500)
EndIf

#Kill Port Splitter process
If(ProcExists("Port Splitter.exe"))
Kill("Port Splitter.exe")
EndIf

Hope it works for you just play round with port splitter until it does.

To get this working with Navig8r G35 I had to download Port Splitter 1.31 (Port Splitter 1.2 does not work)

and edit above adding explorer.exe

modified Garmin.mscr as following.

Errorlevel("warn")

If(WndExists("Garmin Mobile XT"))
Show("Garmin Mobile XT")
Exit
EndIf


#Start explorer.exe and wait a second
Run("\windows\explorer.exe")
#Sleep(500)


#Run Port Splitter if not exists
If(not ProcExists("Port Splitter.exe"))
Run(SystemPath("ScriptPath")\"Port Splitter.exe")
Sleep(500)
EndIf

#Run Garmin Mobile XT.
#This script will not go to the next command before que.exe completely shut down
RunWait(SystemPath("ScriptPath")\"..\Apps\WM\que.e xe")

#Stop Port Splitter before killing it
#If the port splitting are not stopped before killing the process,
#it will not work again even you run Port Splitter again without soft reset
If(WndExists("Port Splitter V1.31"))
#Stop button
SendCommand("Port Splitter V1.31", 1010)
Sleep(500)
#Exit button
SendCommand("Port Splitter V1.31", 2)
Sleep(500)
EndIf

#Kill Port Splitter process
If(ProcExists("Port Splitter.exe"))
Kill("Port Splitter.exe")
EndIf

#Kill explorer.exe
If(ProcExists("explorer.exe"))
Kill("explorer.exe")
EndIf

Finally worked it out, the file mentioned at the start of the tutorial "Garmin XT 5.00.20wp for Windows CE "

does not appear to work on units running CE6, however if you go to:



and download the patched version of this file made for devices running CE6 and follow the rest of Hollowmans Tutorial it installs perfectly, well it did on mine,
no more error messages.

Sparky

hi Sparky, may I know what is us your screen resolution? because my Garmin seems to freeze when i try to run it on my 2 DIN, 800 x 480 WIN CE 6.0.

And i would appreciate if you could send me the direct link to the file you have downloaded (btw is it this one? )

Thanks!

[Cluan]

Hollowman, I am trying to use your procedure to convert my LN500 to Garmin as the updated maps are not available from LG (or anyone else!).
Is this possible?
I get the files on to the SD card but cannot run the "garmin.exe". ("not a win32 Appl'n"!

what is the starting point, please.

hi HH

just installed a double din into my VW touareg. it is from Maisun HK. all went very well and I installed igo8 which also runs well.

am a garmin fan (plane and car) and we have a great free map for garmin here (NZopenGPS).

all installed OK and the card id (settings/about=255014400) was used to generate key (PWB46TFMDZ5VQB9AD4JRJCEGS) using the 5 digit + checksum fix.

i still get the free trial page on running garmin.exe.
tried your older keygen with the same result.

there is also a device id , 8 digits, 3145808 but havent tried it in the keygen.

in the rungmxt/settings file is a XML file and in that file is a 10 digit device id number.....I tried that as well.


just cant seem to get passed the unlock bit.

any suggestions most welcome.

[covert]

No real idea on the matter but you could try the device id. It is what most of the check.

I'm having a different issue. After I install everything from the tutorial on the first page, everything loads fine. My only issue is that when ever I press
(1) point of interest (other than search by name)

Same problem, everything else works really well, real shame you cant go into POI's tho.
I think its either a path problem or else a problem in WinCE 5 but I just dont know enough to solve it.
Will let you know if i ever get it running but thanks to OP for a great post, thanks.

Hi, FreeGPS map is good, bee using it for a few years! re your unlock problem, are you sure you are saving it as sw.unl and not sw.unl.txt? If you use Notepad make sure to change from .txt to all files in the save as type dialogue.

This is the exact same problem i'm getting when i try to select 'Maps".

Has anybody solved this issue?

I'm thinking it maybe caused by the imbedded wince

cheers
