Only this http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?6880-Igo8-March-5-2011 You cannot have Primo. I don't think you read post #12. We'll have to make edits for your device so don't be concerned with the size yet. Which unlock did you use? You can only have one on your device. Delete the one you don't want.

BTW, you didn't have any programs on your device so of course you got nothing.

bobflem,
remember to post how you made out.

I used the c250 sd free unlock .Mio maps working ok, downloaded igo8 onto sd card it opens to flash screen then choose lang options i select then nothing,is that because i have not put maps on yet?
Why the different numbers/ letters Q1-R3 on maps?I'm looking at putting on uk maps what would be most suitable for my device?
Sorry about all the questions but as i say i'm new to this, thankyou for your patience.

After selecting the language there is a "done" button in the lower right of the screen, of you can't see it then the resolution set in sys.txt is too large for your device.

Q1 is quarter 1 of the release year, 2012 Quarter 1

R3 is what version of IGO the maps are for, all versions of iGO, amigo and Primo for the last few years have been R3

Actually, I would have preferred that you used my 3.3 already contained unlock but the one you used is fine. Are you using my iGO8 program? Your device resolution is 320_240. My program is setup for 480_272 so we have to make an edit. In the sys.txt, you'll see 480_272; change that to 320_ 240. Don't forget to save before you exit the sys.txt!

There should be a basemap in content\map of my program so that should be fine until you put your own UK map on it. For map http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?6824-UK-amp-ROI-Content-pack. You use R3 maps. The "Q" is the date of the mapset.

Post again.

I have altered the text and everything has started up ok,it's looking good, i will keep you posted on progress.:Once i've become more confident i will give your unlock another go in the near future.:o:o

Good job. If you still have problems, delete the save folder. BTW, we're still not finished yet. Go here http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?912-TTS-voices-and-components At the bottom of the blue box are the .dlls for WinCE 4.2 that you need for TTS. Download them and replace the present .dlls in your program on the SD card.

Will do.
Thankyou.

Are you good now? Everything working?

Everything seems ok except for buildings are not showing up.

You must have a building file installed, also the building files are somewhat incomplete, expect to see them in major city centres only.
