iGO8 and HTC HD2 aka LEO - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

I am starting this since there will be a lot of users of iGO8 on Leo,so there will be a lot of questions with system.txt and skins.
In the meantime for the lucky users of HD,Gurjon just released skin with 480x800 AND 800x480 resolution(yes,finaly it has PORTRAIT mode!) and it looks sooo good on HD.I can only imagine how great it will be on Leo

Where can i see this?

Here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YWhijK1O0U&feature=player_embedded&fmt=18 You can see IGO 8 in action on HD2 also showing the pinch-zoom working on the map (@ 5:00 minutes).

Have seen that, you wrote:
"Gurjon just released skin with 480x800 AND 800x480 resolution(yes,finaly it has PORTRAIT mode!) and it looks sooo good on HD"
And i was wondering where i can see or download that skin that "Gurjon" has made for iGO.

I do not want to promote anybody for any skins but I played a lot with skins since original iGo8 skin is a basic one witout to much customization and my experience is that Gurjon skin(www.gurjon.com) is the most advanced and best looking(compared to Kikker and Dimka) and now in portrait mode is easily the least crumped with data(you see the road clearly and without destruction but you have on the same time all information)

Good gosh that is NICE ! Wicked ! Too bad I'm in US.. and on Verizon That is a beautiful device !

it looks like HTC made some universal zooming utility.. you can see, zooming is same like zooming in album while video playing...

You have to wait bro... I got it first.

Looks promising. I can hardly wait for my Leo to arrive...

installation...
guys how do you install this???? im using igo8 on my hd..
some help?

I have it installed on my HD2, but no finger zooming!
Would not make any "sense" as it zooms the app.
Note: had to make a few changes in the sys.txt
[interface]
skin="ui_igo8" solves the "failed to open..." error
[device]
type="ALIAS_TOUCH HD" solves the entering of data, like address
sdcard_dsk_num=7

Any sys.txt for portrait?
I hate landscape.

This should work fine - tested with 8.3.2.97313

thanks !

This Gurjon skin is no good either. It just crashes every single time when previewing a route. It seems something is wrong with the lane change signs. Igo crashes as soon as they are supposed to pop up. Works fine with the standard skin though.

Gps is the real interest for me.
So I tried any type of Navigation soft on my HD.
But skins in iGO mostly have problems, you may understand these problems while using the soft.
So iGO is vey useful with its own skin..
I thinks that no extra skin is needed.
However these are good jobs..
Thanks so good share..

Forcing landscape mode on D2 apps

I know there are apps developed here to enable various programs to react to landscape mode. Does it work with the D2? If so, can you please post a link here?
Thanks
Yes it works G-Config works flawlessly.
Go and download G-Config, and follow instructions

Yes,it work well on my td2.
I've tried to install G-Config from the attached CAB file, however when I launch it i get an error saying it requires a newer version of the Microsoft .NET compact framework than I currently have. Does anyone know where i would get this.
I tried running windows update on my phone but it didn't find anything.
google for compact .net 3.5
Thanks everyone, I'll install it
If by default, only which application are allowed in landscape mode for TD2?
I tried it, and it works - but some applications don't support it. The most surprising one is iGo 8.

igo8 either start in landscape or portrait. it can't be change with any rotation programm. and besides you can rotate igo8 in its own menu.

Sensorlock for Topaz?

Hi all
I want to talk about sensorlock on Topaz.I've tried some versions eg 0.4/0.3,but none of them workedeek:nothing happened when click the icon in main menu or setting>personal menu).I guess it's due to the screen size,maybe it only works for VGA screens.
So is there any Sensorlock available for topaz?Plz give me some links to this soft,thx in advance.
WM6.5 21231
No there is not !
Sensorlock dont work on Topaz !
hmm....so bad
Maybe I might have a go at making one in visual studio!
Go and search for "S2U2" - Slide 2 unlock... its working fine on my TD2
Hi!
You could try touchlockpro, it works good and has a lot of features.

I think most of the data inside your sys.txt is not necessary (unless you are using an older version of iGo). I had a HD and I am using the same sys.txt for this device:
Code:
[device]
type="HTC Touch HD T8282"
[folders]
app="%SDCARD%/iGO8"
[interface]
maxzoom2d=6000000
show_exit=1
it works without any problems

I just installed iGo 8, and it works pretty well! Nice graphics and smooth movements.
I just have 1 thing.. When I first installed it, the backlight control worked perfectly, but some other things didnt, so I deleted system.ini and regenerated a new one.
Everything works now, except the backlight control... I can put the slider all the way to the minus sign, but the backlight brightness is still bright.
Anyone know how to fix this?

I had that bug too... You can solve it by modifying the keybind.txt file:
Code:
Open data.zip/config/keybind.txt
In the section [default] add:
x87="NOP"
xE5="NOP"
Landscape should work when you select it in iGo. Auto rotation is still not supported...

Igo 8.3.2.97313 + HD2 + auto-rotation/tilt + HIGH RESOLUTION - how to?...

Hi,
Currently trying 9.3.2.97313 on Winmo 6.5 emulator (haven't got my hd2, yet) and I'm having difficulty configuring it to support both high-resolution landscape (800x480) and portrait (480x800) formats. inside the folder "ui_igo8" (located in data.zip) there are two sub-folders - "480_800" and "800_480", as well as some lower resolutions sub-folders, but they are irrelevant for us.
How do I set the "sys.txt" file?... I found out that "sys.txt" has to be configured correctly before installation. further changes to this file after the program is installed, won't apply in any case.
Did someone manage to make igo8 switch between the formats using the device's rotation-sensor (while maintaining the high resolution format), or its somewhat reinforced to support one format?...
Here's what I tried so far (pictures + "sys.txt" settings for each example) :
Boned-stock file - standard low resolution - landscape + portrait :
Code:
[folders]
app="%SDCARD%/iGO8"
[interface]
skin="ui_igo8"
maxzoom2d=6000000
show_exit=1
[debug]
skip_eula=1
landscape (stock, low resolution) - http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/2123/stocklandscape.png
portrait (stock, low resolution) - http://img248.imageshack.us/img248/6974/stockportrait.png
Changed file - high resolution (landscape setting inside "sys.txt") - landscape + portrait. look what happens in portrait mode :
Code:
[folders]
app="%SDCARD%/iGO8"
[interface]
skin="ui_igo8"
resolution_dir="800_480"
vga=1
screen_x=800
screen_y=480
maxzoom2d=6000000
show_exit=1
[rawdisplay]
autoconfig=1
highres=0
class="auto"
driver=GDI
[debug]
skip_eula=1
landscape (you can see a clear improvement in quality over the stock landscape) - http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/4323/highlandscape.png
portrait (not being scaled to fit *argh*) - http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/8821/highportraite.png
of course, I can switch between 800_480 to 480_800 inside sys.txt each time before I install the application, but it won't make the application do the switch automatically. I tried to set two individual "resolution_dir", won't change anything.
I read that htc HD users tend to add "autoconfig=1" under [rawdisplay], in order to make it switch (I doubt it'll maintain the correct resolution, it will probably use stretch/resize algorithms instead of using original files). as you can see, I tried that also, but it won't change anything.
I'll appreciate any suggestion...
Thanx!
I do not think iGO8 can switch the screen automatically. It need to be restarted each time for screen rotation.

That´s right. Unfortunately you have to restart iGO after manually setting your direction in the settings.
I hope in future it, just like CoPilot, rotates automatically and pinching will be available.
thanks guys. I guess I'll have to live the manual way for some time... probably until the next version of iGo is out...
oki
I have a Mio A501 Phone device, with WM5
I instal the iGO 8.3.xx with 2009.02 europ maps ... but after I walk 1 km the device has blocked
if I instal iGO 8.0.xx with old maps ... the device function very well ... but iGO 8.0.xx dont sport the new maps 2009.02
i think the device Mio A501 dont have inought memory for iGO 8.3.xx ... in this case what can I do, what must to write or change in the sys.txt
On iPhone version, iGO MyWay 2009, it can rotate screen automatically using G-sensor, but not in Windows Mobile version. iGO should be restarted each time But may be in iGO 8.4 amigo (same as iGO myWay 2009 iphone version), but I can try it after 3 days.. (my leo comes)
I hate amigo's GUI, too simplified. I'd rather wait for the next navn'go.
I agree with Fatherboard ,
iGO 8 is the best in Nav N go series
no solution here?
I would really like to enable switching between landscape and portrait without having to change the system file every time. We need to find a way to get that going in the settings...
I need ideas to test a little bit...
Although this thread is a bit "old", try using BSB Tweaks 1.5...

Is indeed for that program, but I think you don't get it. It's the device-image on the computerscreen that's scinned. You can see your devicescreen on a real Topaz with this. This has nothing to see with the theme on the device...
Great work pego2007. Lot of people gonna like it.
Maybe better to give more detail of what it really is and place a pic with an original, not tweaked devicescreen...
@ Agent.m
"Is this skin for the this program??

Yes,you´re alright,this skin is for this program.

More details of MyMobiler: it`s a Remote Desktop Program for some WindowsMobileDevices.
With my skin you have a picture of your Topaz in Background of your pc,otherwise it`s looking naked,as you can see in attachment 1

Thanks. I 1st thought it was a skin for topaz or a shell like point ui till i realized what mymobiler was for.
Nice-looking! Better than the "no-skin".
It should be perfect when you will be able to use the 4 buttons, but I think that would be impossible (or very difficult).
Thanks!
