Re: Igo8 Mio Moov 2gb Rom Download

I have been eyeing the Mio Moov series GPS ever since they were announced. The biggest change to this line of Mio GPS is that MioMap is no longer based upon iGo. It is now based upon Navman. The unlock procedure is thus different from other series of Mio GPS.
There is an excellent website dedicated to unlocking Navman GPS. You can modify the package for Mio Moov. What you need to do is find out the path to put the unlock package on the SD card. I found these on the GpsPasSion forum.
Here is the original thread. If your model is not listed, you can plug your Mio Moov to the computer and look for a file called app_startup.txt. This file gives you clues about what is the path name for your model. This is a sample line for Mio Moov 300.
Regarding the on/off button, I ran to the similar problem when I unlocked my Mio C230. I found that the original unlocking package exits out MainShell after unlocking. I had to make sure MainShell is running in order to have a functional on/off button. You might want to check the Navman package and see if you can find a similar program.
You can delete every file in flash on the moov and it still will connect to the pc. I reformatted it, and still made a connection to a moov 300. Im Trying to run the old IGO software wide screen version on mine but keep getting hardwareIDError.. ? Any Luck doing this, Anyone?
Anyway, I own two versions of IGO or MioMap one from a c3XX wide version and one from my C230. Ive tried both on the moov. C230 version, As it starts up, First BMP is MioMap then error, NO 400277 etc bmp file. OK, miomap c230 version does not have widescreen.. So I tried, the widescreen version, That also startups and gets to HardwareIDError. Thats as far as I got..
Made folders
Program Files/Navman/SmartST_CE/SmartST_CE.exe
Program Files/Navman/SmartST_CE with the TWO files it needed to point to SmartST_CE.exe which makes it point to the correct location of the .exe.
Installed MioMap software in the SmartST_CE folder and changes the miomap.exe to SmartST_CE.exe
Theres a file with all the Device names in it like HPxxx, PPC version etc.. Dont know if changing one of those devices to moov300 will make the software startup? Maybe it needs to know what device? Forget the file name of that, but it lists all the device names. If its windows 5.0, it should just run it, so I dont get it..
OH, one more thing I thats sweet.. OWN a moov 300 and I installed traffic on it. Just dont know how to get it working.. If you goto mios website, get sign up for traffic using a 310, and enter your 300 ID number, it gives you a free Year of traffic and downloads all the traffic files to your moov300. So Dont know if the mio300 has a radio in it or not? Specs of the moov300 says traffic is an option..
Once you get your SUB Number from online, use your MIO software and goto Activation. Type in your SUB number you just signed up for, and it will activate the traffic download. If someone knows how to turn it on NOW!!!
