The pictures attached are from a US 500BT unit with firmware version 2.0. I've built on Stanislovich's mod and added my on screen trip computer mod and seperate trip computer screen plus keepers quick launch mod with some additional functionality. Besides the zoom buttons I've also added tilt buttons as well several different POI search buttons for route and no route. I've also excluded the 4 MSN buttons that are not available with pre 3.0 units.
I'll be zipping this up over the weekend and posting it if there's enough interest.
Speed camera can be set by pushing the speed limit or speed limit near bmp. If a camera is on the screen and the speed limit needs to be changed it can be done from the navigate screen. There are two invisible buttons on the main navigate screen: one to access the trip computer when the on screen version with the boxes are set to off and the other invisible button is to active the quick launch buttons.
In case you missed it above, this is not for units with 3.0 or later.
Be sure to back up what you currently have before you install this. I assume no responsibility if your unit is inoperable while attempting to install of after it's been installed. By downloading and installing this you do so at your own risk.
You also agree that you are able to enter your unit via testmode and know how to transfer files. Questions regarding how to install the zip will be ignored. Please don't clutter the thread asking how to install. Newbies should read the FAQ thread, it's the first thread listed above.
Here's the zip. http://www.mediafire.com/?m1ldnizjytw
First off the basis of this zip is the one listed in the New Nav Mod thread. I believe I've installed all the updates Yuri made up to and including the zip posted on 7/24/09 viewtopic.php?f=34&t=24444
The mods I added are the on screen trip computer plus a seperate trip computer interface where three trips can be set up and tracked, keepers quick launch with additional shortcuts, primarily POI shorcuts in line with what's available in the POI screen. There's also tilt and rotate functionality.
On-Screen Trip Computer:
To reset trip - press the furthest left bmp titled TTL TRP TIME
To access the Trip Computer interface - press the bmp tltled MAX SPEED
To go back one trip - press MOVING TIME
To go forward one trip - press AVG DR SPEED
To pause the current trip - press TRIP DISTANCE
To resume current trip - press AVG SPEED
Quick Launch Buttons:
To view the buttons press the invisible button that's coded on the top blue bar towards the center of the bar. It's 350 pixels wide so you don't have to press precisely on the center.
Top Row of buttons from L to R are:
return home, find address, history, favorites
Second row from L to R are:
tilt down, tilt up, zoom in, zoom out, rotate right, rotate left
Third row of buttons from L to R are:
find POI by address, POI by point on map, point info which also list the co-ordinates as well as the immediate POI's,saved searched POI's, POI's around GPS, POI's along route, POI's near destination. The last three are coded to show only when a route is enabled.
There is also a sign that displays the current elevation. There's also an on/off button for it in the settings.
The on screen trip computer also can be switched on/off through the settings. If it's off and you want to view the trip computer interface, I've coded an invisible button where the MAX SPEED bmp would be. Just touch it and it'll take you to the TC. Which ever trip is showing in TC interface is the same one that's outputted to the blue boxes on the screen. I've explained above how to navigate between the trips, pause, resume and reset directly through the blue boxes.
There's a beautiful set of lips on the top bar to stop the navigate voice. Press it and there will be an X through it to indicate the voice navigation is off. Press again to enable the voice.
The button next to the lips is the kill route button. Press it and you'll receive a prompt asking if you're sure you want to delete.
The 2d/3d button , which is also a rotating compass will be virtually invisible a few seconds after entering the screen. Touch in that area to go between 2d and 3/d maps.
Plan mode button is to the left of the rotating compass, it will also go virtually invisible in a few seconds. Touch in that area to enter plan mode.
Track the route button is located next to the off button on the bottom right. Press in that area to start recording the route.
Speed Limit is broken into two bmp's. When the speed limit sign appears it's because tele-atlas had data for that protion of the road. If you extend past the prtion where the data was available, the unit will show a red round bmp with a black center and yellow text. The value there was carried over from the last availble data area you were in. It may or may not be correct.
To add a speed camera: Touch a point on the map where you want to add then touch the speed limit sign or the speed limit near sign. Doing so will bring you screen to add the camera.
If the unit is displaying a speed camera and the speed displayed is not correct, touch the point on the map of the camera then touch the blue speed limit sign to edit or delete the camera data.
A short cut to change the color scheme is in the trip computer interface. Touch the time dispaled to be brought to settings for color schemes.
A short cut to enter the map settings is also in the trip computer interface. Touch the date field to enter map settings. In map settings you can turn off just about everything almost have a full screen.
Turn restrictions will show whether in route or not. It will display directly to the right of the box that contains the gps speed.
One of the main reasons I installed the tilt buttons was that my unit would appear to be in 2d mode even though I was in 3d mode. This happened frequently and we thought it was because I was running on the original version. I updated to 2.0 and that didn't help. I've also modified the tilt settings values so I was able to choose both values the same. My tilt is set to 83 on both settings. That gives me about one inch of sky view. You may want to play with settings if your unit acts erratically when tilting.
I'd appreciate comments or just thanks. For all the takers out there, the dozen or so modders here really oput tons of time into the mods. There is no reason we need have to share. If you come up with a new discovery please share with us. It may be useful to others too.
