gruvncubn Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Sorry for not being clear. What I meant was that once I copied branded icons it worked, but now I can no longer add my own icons using my USB/SD card when creating a new custom POI. Before when you create a new POI it would ask you to put in an icon but the option is gone to add from USB/SD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 The only way I know of to add a custom icon to a created POI is with avic feeds and that still works the same as before. I have created POI's with the unit and used icons from the list of branded icons without any problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VBLUE42 Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 No, unless the icon is imbedded with the .KML file it will not display on the screen with the branded icon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
derekbuckner1 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 in the origional post, it said that restraunts would not show the right icons, and that you could fix that. i saw where people talked about the bread icon, what about the icons that come with it, like pizza hut, mcdonalds,.. how do you fix those?

VBLUE42 Posted March 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Dont know, I dont have enough knowledge as to how the file works in order to fix it. I was hoping someone else with more knowledge would take up that challenge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gtogsx Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Is there a way to display branded icons for "Starbucks", "Dunkin Donuts", etc. when you approach it nearby? Also for the restaurant icons, I get the bread icon. How do I change it to the default fork/knife one? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also for the restaurant icons, I get the bread icon. How do I change it to the default fork/knife one? Answer to the first question is no. The answer to the second question is to remove the branding file at which all of the original files will return. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
69sixpackbee Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Do I just transfer over the file in the zipped mode or do I add the individual files separately? Thanx, Bud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GTIMatt Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I added this file and it worked as expected however I noticed that I get the pizza hut icon for pizza hut but I don't get the Mcdonalds, Burger King ones etc. Anyone know why this is? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 That question has already been addressed several times in this thread. The file is not 100% compatible with the category setup in the Avic causing some icons to not appear as desired. It will take someone with knowledge to edit the category setup in the Avic itself to change this and that is beyond my knowledge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
