Hi guys, I think this is a toll road feature - but can anyone confirm how it works? I'm going to South London just on the fringe of the congestion charging zone and I'd like to avoid entering it. Thanks

Can anyone point me in the direction of a EU V3 emulator? I've found a US version, but it doesn't work with EU iGo folder.

Yes - post amended to clarify. I didn't look at speed info. But I imagine that will be the same as for you. I would prefer to have better post code searching with the TA maps. Perhaps in the next map update it will be better.

TA=TeleAtlas NV=Navteq I've been trying out the difference between the 090424 TeleAtlas maps and the 090609 (Q1 09) Navteq maps (with the respective basemaps (0408 for NV and 0209 for TA). I believe I have the standard 3d building files from the stock EU V3 Things I've noticed: 1. 7 digit postcode searching in the NV maps is much better than the TA maps for the UK. Two postcodes that I previously could not access using the TA maps worked with the NV maps. 2. Routing seems faster with the NV maps in the UK 2. Lane information does not seem to be available with the NV ma

Is there a way of pausing navigation. Ie when you need to pull into services for 5 minutes. I'm using V 3 on a F700BT

I can't seem to unpack this archive. I start with part 3 but then I get the following message: need following file to continue: avic f900_700_500 ver_3.000301(part3).rar That doesn't exist in the file list - because the file names have been changed I think. Is there any way to unpack these files with the new names? Thanks

Thanks very much this is really useful. Is there a need for the font file that's included? Where does it go? APL2/iGo ?? Thanks

IDT I can't seem to locate the stopbutton_onmap.bmp I have looked in the latest data.zip Do you know where it is located? Thanks try this be sure to add the BMP's for it

Hello Can anyone post a quick howto for using this mod on EU units? I see there was a message about getting the TMC in Europe to work, anything else (like taking out the MSN stuff and anything else we don't have). Would be cool to have an IDT3.0 V3.1EU version!

Thanks Brian that's good to know. I might try the IDT 3.0 v2 mod with teleatlas maps+hacked EZrider when I'm feeling brave. Don't know how the IDT mods will fare in an EU unit though. Did you get 3d buildings and POIs all in the same package with the maps or are they seperate packs? Cheers Stewart

I'm looking for this simple mod too for 3.01 EU. I don't mind copying the code if I know where to put it. I don't mind reading how to do it too, if somebody can point me to where the info is at. Searching for this info through the search function isn't helpful. Too many hits and it's too narrow a subject to know what the correct keywords are.

Hi Brian, Are you using Navteq or Teleatlas maps with hacked EZrider V3? I presume you have no probs with running GTIMatts mod on a EU unit? Cheers Stewart Hi Rob, I don't know what is best for you, I found the maps on mine were out of date the moment I bought it, 2007 maps in a system I purchased in June 2009, I also found the user interface of the Navigation part lacking until i discovered GTIMatts data.zip on here and a hacked Ezrider file, the gtimatt mod sorted the user interface part and the ezrider let me use newer maps from another web source, I changed

Looks like the mods for new firmware are coming fast. Having done a search on the F Series hacks board, I can't see any specific mod bundles for the EU unit. Can anyone help? I'd like Cancel route and navigation voice mute primarily, but wouldn't mind some of the button rearrangement mods that I've read about. We don't have MSN direct and our speedcam/pois are obviously different to the US ones. Thanks from sunny Brighton, UK

UK 7 digit postcodes no longer get an exact location. You now need to add a house number always. This really sucks.

Is anyone else running V3 (Igo 8.3 I think) having problem with UK postcode searching? Previously I could type a 7 digit postcode into the city box and the unit would pretty much do the rest - didn't need to enter house number or anything. Now I add the postcode it's registered but then asks for more info like street name or house number. That's really frustrating when you are say visiting a hospital which doesn't have a house number. With some of the postcodes, even center of street is greyed out so the only option I have is to enter a random house number. Is there a setting that I've
