Hi IDT,

Is it possible to add to your mod a new feature on Full and Simple windows visual alert so as to cut only mobile alerts cams with a long click and show an icon specific to reactivate such alerts?

Can you tell me how to change the data.zip to add this feature?

for exemple

Great mod, thank you for all your work!

I have a couple of questions:

- is there any way to set the speed limit sign to European style (white circle with red border)?

- after the unit boots, the map starts always in 2D mode, even if it was in 3D when it was turned off. It used to remember the last setting before using this mod. Is there any way in having the map remember its last setting, or to start in 3D mode?

 

Thank you again for the hard work!

Any help please with any of these? Especially booting in 2D mode is really annoying.

I do not understand your problem. When I stop my avic in 3D mode it restarts in the same mode, same for 2D.

You use the sys.txt archive of IDT?

When you install this mod, have you deleted files PERMANENT_V1.sav, SETTINGS_LOWLEVEL_V1.sav, SETTINGS_V2.sav and system.ini in MyDevice/MyFlashDisk/User/UserData/iGO/Save ?

Yes, this is my problem: no matter what mode I stop the unit in, it will always start in 2D - and I like to keep it in 3D.

And yes, I did delete the files in the Save folder, as instructed by IDT.

The only change is that I'm using a slightly modified sys.txt, with some settings I picked up from various forums out there. Could this be the problem?

what i suggest is to use the sys.txt included in the download and see if it fixes it, if it does then we know that the problem is the sys.txt that your using

That's good suggestion, I'm going to try it and report back the result.

One more question: in the final fixed version, what's the difference between data.zip and dataeu.zip? Since I have an American F900 unit, but I live in Europe, which one should I use?

for exemple

i can but i seriously don't have the time, i'm busy working two jobs to save up

This additional feature would be really good yet.

like i've said, i have been busy lately and pretty much not have time to do anything, weekends suppose to be my time to rest but still i'm answering inquiries, request, bug fixes and other stuff, i will add it when i get a chance but don't keep your hopes up,

ok thank you for your reply. I speak your language badly, if I understand you add this feature in a forthcoming update, right? but only in the mod 3.0skinV2 or 3.0skin Final. Personally I use your skin 3.0Final.

I tried the supplied sys.txt and the problem with starting in 2D mode is still there. It did solve the issue with default visibility distance. Any other idea?

What's the difference between data.zip and dataeu.zip?

the difference is that on the EU it has the TMC shortcut, UK style speed limit sign, reversed housenumbers and the sys.txt was edited to reflect the EU device type and the TMC

Hi IDT,

I installed the 3.0 final version on a F500BT US model, but not getting the expected functionality. For starters, the mute and clear route buttons are overlaid by the battery status icon. Current speed/ elevation icons do not showup while navigating, but showup when stopped completly. Multi route doesn't show option to show the routes on map. Nothing major like reboots/hangups, though. Itried msn version, alternate version, regular version, formatted avic and reinstalled, but nothing fixes the issues.

Your mod mentions the device as 746 UC ins sys.txt, but I loose TTS when that setting. I changed that to 749UC and was able to get TTS working. Other than that, all the settings in the sys.txt of my device backup seems to be there in the mod. Can this cause the issues I have?

I didn't bypass my parking brake, as my unit is removable and I plan to complete the modding before installing it in the car. Could this be causing the issues I am facing? Any suggestions for fixing these issues?

Thanks in advance.

Hi IDT,

AFAIK there's a setting to turn off the battery icon, so it's either you turn it off or you just comment it out in your navigatemap_800_480.ui,

Hi IDT,

the current speed and elevation works that way, they are only visible when not navigating

are you using the scheme included in the download? i already fixed the schemes to show the routes,

i don't think so, check to see if your bluetooth is working though,

Hi IDT,

about the function works in combination with on-board computer, I wonder if it is possible that the details are being stored and reused by the AVIC, for that next start it will always be present?

no

ok thank's

I turned off the battery status in the menu and it no longer appears in the map window.

the current speed and elevation works that way, they are only visible when not navigating.

I would expect current speed/elevation to showup, wether navigating or not. It is very convenient to glance at the avic and know how much above/below the speed limit you are travelling. If it is not there, you need to check the car's speedometer to get the speed, which anyway is not as accurate as the gps speed. That said, can you please explain the reason for not showing current speed/elevation while navigating?

I am not really keen on the multiplan and mentioned it only because I was concerned that I didn't install the mod correctly. Since most of it working as expected, so I can live without multiplan.

For the record, I did download the schemes and can see them in the map color schemes option.

i don't think so, check to see if your bluetooth is working though,

Basic bluebooth like, connecting/calling/phone book xfer works. I didn't test voice dial, but I assume it also works.

I noticed that your screen shots show car icon, instead of the default arrow. I didn't notice any option for changing the arrow to car icon, though. Did I miss something?

Finally, thank you for giving this great mod and taking time to answer my questions.

Any idea why my device is booting in 2D mode, no matter what I tried? How can I make it to go directly to 3D by default?

bad news guys, for some reason my unit just stopped working this afternoon, i brought it to the store i bought it from to find out that the warranty was only til october, my wife just got laid off from her work and i'm not planning on buying a unit as the budget is kinda tight right now, hopefully i'll have another unit next year once she finishes her schooling and gets a job, i won't online as often as before as i think i'm going to focus on looking for a second job, regarding bug fixes and request the only thing i can do is to look at the code and test it on the emulator,

just sent you a paypal, hopefully that would help towards you getting a unit, not having you around here is like not having mods at all, i really appreciate your work and hope that this helps,
