Chuck88 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 LOL, great iPhone versus Droid. Anyways I didn't have trouble until now. Twice I tried it and both times it rebooted, but we went on Vacation with your 2.75 and it worked fine for both of us??? Is there a way to clear the cache? Try to delete the BTSettings.dat file under \My Flash Disk\USER\UserData\SETUP, and possibly other *.DAT files as well if it doesn't do the trick. You would have to relink your phone afterward. Remember always to make a copy before any modifications to the AVIC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
abb1 Posted August 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Misterblue has fine-tuned his mod and has improved the smartzoom from IDT, so I hope that this will get it simpler and that he can offer to help when requested. There is a language barrier with him. When he talks, it makes absolutely no sense! I am sure that he means well, but a lot of people (me especially) just dont understand him at all.

Chuck88 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Hey Chuck88, maybe I'm in the minority but I have always used smart zoom and always will as long as its available; so go ahead and count me as a smart zoom user.http://avic411.com/forum/posting.php?mo ... 4&t=33698# Yeah I always say that losing the sky, for only a moment, for a clearer turn visual is no big deal, this is what a navigation system is for after all, NAVIGATE and NOT see the sky . You would see the whole sky when you are 800m away from the next turn, and get lesser when you are closer, so I really don't understand why people don't like it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twice I tried it and both times it rebooted, but we went on Vacation with your 2.75 and it worked fine for both of us??? Is there a way to clear the cache? When you are switching the mods, are you switching the SYS.txt files? they are both different! I will try your deletion method on the file, but would sys.txt have any affect on the BT? I do use the one you supply, but add some files to allow the road names to be in a box and to change the zoom settings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The SYS.txt may have a effect on the cache as it has the cache extended to 2048 mb for my 3.0 mod Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck88 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 So that is it? Nobody else want to vote for smartzoom? Looks like that Abb's mods has been downloaded far more than 6 or 7 times ... Please do so, whether you like it or not. Your opinion counts to make this forum better .

abb1 Posted August 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Chuck what maps are u using as they have the hyw signs in canada and the colours look nice? This has been discussed in several locations, the only way to see hwy signs is to use Navteq maps! You will not see them with TA maps! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ovalball Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 If Smartzoom worked as it was intended,I would use it.If Abb decides he can do something with it,then great!If not I won't lose any sleep because IMO it is still the best mod available. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This has been discussed in several locations, the only way to see hwy signs is to use Navteq maps! You will not see them with TA maps! Abb is referring to Canada only. On the US soil, highway signposts are available, apparently, everywhere with both maps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck88 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Chuck what maps are u using as they have the hyw signs in canada and the colours look nice? NavTeq. As for the color, position, transparency and font size of the signposts, you would have to tweak it a bit from Abb's mod V2.75. The original signposts from IDT are opaque and with bigger font size. If you want, let me know when you success installing NavTeq map. Of course, snapshots are not from V3.0. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed. Best mod for the time being. With correct operation of smartzoom, it would be even better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
