Mech Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 I have been performing 34by151's mods on a US version X910Bt here in OZ. I have stuck to all instructions with very little issues. I am still sorting the BT issue with the modified skin though, as when i delete the items in the igo/save folder they reappear after reboot. MSN is not active but every so often it searches for a connection, i am assuming this is part of thie issue. Otherwise the unit inc BT works flawlesly with the original skin with the last V3UPDATE03. mod copied over and the latest R17 maps. I have not changed SYS.TXT as Before and after the the mod there are at multiple sys.txt folders, two showing "PIONEER746EW", and two showing "PIONEER746UC". I Have not made any changes to any sys.txt folders as unit works perfectly so far. And a quick thanks to 34by151 for his huge effort and prompt reply to posts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
34by151 Posted April 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 I suspect you are using one of the early beta data.zip files. Change back to one of the released versions, I have removed the beta's from 4shared as they are very old in terms of the skin development anyway. Give the last V3update02 file a a try and this will not have the BT issue that the early beta had. also make sure you do not have the incorrect device line in sys.txt. Best ides is to run your standard sys.txt first the add in the extra lines from my one later on Cheers 34by151 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scruffy325 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hi 34by151, I've updated my unit and taken it for a spin and all is working perfectly...almost! The work you have done so far has been awesome and I can't wait to see what's next. New maps + new interface = Have you got a PayPal account or something I can make a donation to for all your work?? So, the last niggly problem I have is TTS. It started when I installed the v16 maps you uploaded a while back and unfortunately has followed with v17. The voice works fine and reads the standard text, but when it gets to reading the street name it gets a confused and starts speaking gibberish. I can make out the voice spelling TeleAtlas with a bunch of percentage signs and letters and so on. Has anyone had any success with TTS on v17? The map is definitely passing the street name so it must be the TTS engine which can't interpret the new way of receiving it. I've also tried different TTS languages including non-english ones and they all have the same problem. Any ideas on where to start looking to fix this? I know from reading previous posts that TTS uses the phoneme.ph and commands.csv but I'm not sure on what to do with these. Also, would lowering the roadsign_lines_per_screen value increase the size of the signs? They appear fine but are a little small. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reecho Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 I had that issue previously too..!! I have just updated to R17 and the "ball & chain" will no doubt let me know of it's progress Very slick download though....Thanks a bunch..!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
34by151 Posted April 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 I downloaded from both the links above. then unrar them So onto step 3 Cheers 34by151 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
34by151 Posted April 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 TTS voices do not work for the reasons you have found. It's actually an Igo problem. You have to use non TTS voices Signposts display is controlled by the skin and can be altered by changing the settings in you sys.txt and the signpost.ini in the data.zip Cheers 34by151 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
