Feeling brave tonight,
Having read 'Hollowman's' post & that he has igo8 working on a Mio169 (same os as the pin570)
so I went for it.
downloaded 8.3.4.117940 and copied onto a 1Gb sd card.
copied maps from my sons unit
'United_Kingdom_83_TA_2010.03_100526.fbl'
tele Atlas BV [100526]
into the \content\maps folder on the card
created a sys,txt file with screen resolution + GPS data from the Pin570
renamed 'application.bat' to igo8.exe
created a shoutcut to the said exe file & went for it.
Igo starts to load, display is good, prompted for & sorted language
...error message:-
Map initialisation error.
'your map files are out dated. Please visit your local dealer'
oh ***!!
Here is my 'basic' sys.txt
[folders]
app="%SDCARD%/iGO8"
[interface]
skin="ui_igo8"
maxzoom2d=6000000
show_exit=1
resolution_dir="240_320"
vga=0
[rawdisplay]
screen_x=240
screen_y=320
class="portrait"
[gps]
port="8"
baud="9600"
[tts]
tts_buffer=131072
tts_logics=3
always_say_road_names=1
announce_street_name=1
announce_exit_directions=1
skip_exit_numbers=0
priority="HIGH"
So I decided to start again, wiped the card clean & copied it all back.
clicked the shortcut & in we go. This time all went well got in completely and started going thro the various setting, all sorted bar the GPS signal, not found. Decided to switch off & back on to check that all the settings I had just input were saved....yes..yes.. so to sort the GPS signal
Here I'm struggling, I can see the orange led flashing so the system is trying to find sat's however in the GPS settings it says GPS reciever not found??
