I've modified leetlauncher v2 to include coreplayer and miopocket. You'll be able to access Mainmenu and full sound support with coreplayer. This is a temporary solution until leet update his launcher with Mainmenu capability.

+push the knob down to access leetlauncher menu

+press miopocket icon for the installation

+press testmode to switch to miopocket

+press blue box to switch task

***Remember to Launch IGO8 before Mainmenu

***Yellow orb on the upper right = Mainmenu (You can also launch it from Leetlauncher)

***In order to get sound with Wince Apps, sd or usb source has to be activated. (Play a song from sd or usb stick then pause it)

***To Autolaunch IGO8 and Mainmenu after Miopocket installs, uncomment the last 4 lines in MioAutorun/scripts/StartupPrograms.mscr

I tested Miopocket on my F500BT today and the basics work.

I tested Miopocket on my F500BT today and the basics work.

That's great to know miopocket works on this device. Does the media player and keyboard works? Was the screen distorted? Did the resolution display correctly with the patch? Sorry for asking too many questions. I'm just excited to know miopocket works on the f500bt. I'm going to sell my mio c520 and buy this gps.

WOW, that community is rather like this one... Some very dedicated modders!

If you go all the way to the very last page, one of the heavy hitters just posted the complete software with several mods and with the patch built in.

I will try this tomorrow!

Let me know how it goes.

The media player works fine with the two included media files. I didn't test the keyboard. The display was correct after selecting the 800x480 skin.

I am attempting to test this and have run in to a couple issues. If using the instructions on the provided link, we are told to insert the SD card with the unit already on.

I have tried this with both the unit in normal mode (the stereo) and while already in TestMode. In neither case did simply inserting the SD card do anything.

I have gone back and reformatted the SD card, put the correct renamed files back on the SD card and tried again with no success.

Can you tell me if this was done from the stereo mode, or test mode... And I am correct in thinking that I should be using the instructions for the NON Mio Navigon?

Thank you,

T

I continued to try to get it to work today also... I am fairly convinced that I am using the instructions provided exactly as they are written and it will not work.

Today, after inserting the SD card with the correct data on it the Avic begins playing all of the sound files that are contained in the software and displaying a pop up that states (all unrecognized files are skipped) (or something like that...).

carlsbad,

Try the sdfree method (make sure you make a backup of your files). Change Mioautorun.exe and Mioautorun.mscr to the startup file of your gps. I can't help you because I don't have this gps yet. I don't know the files structure of this gps. I'll get this gps in a few days, until then maybe fred can help you out.

Copy the original Pioneer Testmode directories to a SD card. Copy the MioPocket Media and MioAutorun directories to the same SD card. Remove or rename the file CopyTool.exe in the Testmode directory. Copy MioAutoRun.exe, MioAutoRun.mscr and MortScript.exe to the Testmode directory and rename MioAutoRun.exe to CopyTool.exe and MioAutoRun.mscr to CopyTool.mscr. Boot the F500BT with the SD card inserted and MioPocket will start in a few moments. Good luck.

hello this is my first post ive done things like this to all sorts of things but i never would have known you could do them to a Hu little alone that it ran windows but i have a avic-f700bt i love it ,even more now that i can mod it, but i was wondering if anyone has got this to work on a 700bt and if so can i have a step by step walk through i have tried it and it installs but when it reboots itself after it is no where to be found and i tried to do it instead of test mode by replacing the files like internet said but it installs reboots installs reboot and keeps doing that so any help would be much appriciated i hope to become a good help to this forum since i have some experience with modding iphone's, ppc's, psp's, and other PDA's but im still messing with the data file but thanks in advance for any help

After doing the entire process over again, I am able to get the system to boot into MIO INSTALLATION. It goes through what appears to be the entire process. It loads the files, loads the wallpaper and skins and then the screen goes blank and the system reboots.

I tried this and can't get it to install. Can you tell me exactly what to copy to SDcard root folder and what to copy to TestMode.

Cheers

You've got to have four directories in the root of the SD card: Testmode, MiTACAP, MioAutoRun and Media. Remove or rename the file CopyTool.exe in the Testmode directory. Copy MioAutoRun.exe, MioAutoRun.mscr and MortScript.exe to the Testmode directory and rename MioAutoRun.exe to CopyTool.exe and MioAutoRun.mscr to CopyTool.mscr. That's it.

Thanks Fred. I've done exactly as you described (had already tried same in one of the many efforts I tried last night) but it still boots into normal Avic operation. I,ve had the message about not finding the CopyTool.exe a few times tho'. Right now in SDCard mode it's just doing a 20 second loop of "20th Century Fox Fanfare.mp3", Map and Navi operating as normal.

Make sure your F500BT is off by holding the power button for about 5 seconds. Then start your F500BT with the SD card inserted by holding the power button for about 5 seconds again and see what happens.

Definitely not working for me... I have used the Fred method and although it appears the software is installing, the system just reboots back in to the install screen and does this over and over.

I had assumed (maybe incorrectly) that since it could be done on the 500, it could be done on the 900...

Tried that too Fred, but it just boots up normally. What's meant to happen when it does boot in Mio, is there a particular message on screen? I've even gone into SD on my 500 and can find all the Mio stuff listed in menus but thats as far as I get. Do you think maybe my download may be corrupted?

Here's the contents of my SD Card:

- Media > Books

> Music

> Pictures

> Video

- MioAutoRun > Programs

> Registry

> Scripts

> Skin

> System

> Windows

> Folder Descriptions

> MioPocket

> MioPocket Readme

- MiTACAP > APL2

- Testmode > AutoRun.exe

> AutoRun.mscr

> MortScript.exe

You have to rename Autorun.exe to CopyTool.exe and AutoRun.mscr to CopyTool.mscr as described in one of my previous posts.

Sorry Fred, the list was after I had tried several different combos. I had already tried with the file re-names as you described but I still had no luck.

Any ideas?

I'm sorry but I don't know what you should do to get it working.

WOOHOO!

I'm in, Fred

Turns out re-named (Mio) CopyTool.exe was actually named CopyTool.exe.exe (????????). Dunno how this happened, pretty sure it wasn't me that did it, so maybe Carlsbad should check his file names too.

Now to see if I can get it full-screen: it started up in 'Stopword' skin @ 480 X 260 (at least I think I think that's the res.).

Will post soon with any info I have.

And thanks once again Fred for your help on this

Here's a pic........
