open (UNPACK) the original rar file, and you will find the needed zip file in this, but you will find there some additional files too, what you have to copy to your hw acc. to dimka's specification

Original di/\/\ka support only qvga.
You should use modifications for your resolutions.

I can't support resolutions, not supported by my device, but fortunately, many people like my skin and do modes for another resolutions.

Can I ask something.
Why I can't see dimka skin in my IGO 8.3.2,.. I am using latest data.zip from here.
My device is Xperia 800*480.
The only skin, I can see in IGO is GJ 5.6 an no other skins from gorjun or dimka.
I prefer dimka skin, is better then gorjun.

Thanks for help

First check this checklist:
  1. The skin is indeed a zip file (some skin zip files are distributed inside another archive (like rar))
  2. The skin supports your iGO8 version (v8.0.x.x / v8.3.1.x / v8.3.2.x)
  3. The skin supports your device's resolution (240x320 is supported also in 480x640)
  4. iGO8 is set to the correct orientation: Portrait/Landscape (not all skins support both)

Since we are currently talking about diMka skin, I assume that the cause is probably #1.
Another possibility is that there is a conflict with your "sys.txt" file.


Thanks, but I know that IGO files must be compressed just ONE time, with zip compression.
I really don't know what is wrong.
I also used sys file posted few post before, but same problem.

Hi D8389,
I totally agree with you that the multi-route should be base on the current route.
But I did try it on the iGo default skin and find that it will still use the cursor as the destination.

I really like the idea from GJ, but just want a simple one which doesn't have so many fancy interface tweak.

d8389 wrote:henrik.dk,

The script developed to replace multi-route calculation feature in igo 8.0.

It was really harmful because current route was replaced with route to cursor when multi calculation used.

In R3 it works great and do exactly, what user expect.
So, I've removed the script from skin for 8.3.

I don't know, why DVS1 still keep it.

Thank you, Arkoko, for providing us with the 800x480 versions of Gurjon's skins. Thank you, Gurjon, for making the originals.

I tried version 5.10_HP, but I have two problems with it:

1. After turning off AC power, version 5.9 usually turned off the PNA as well; the "shutdown_time=10" in sys.txt does this. However, in 5.10_HP, the PNA won't turn off, even if sys.txt has not been changed. If I revert back to the original iGO8 skin, it works. If I use Gurjon's original 5.10 or Arkoko's 5.10_HP mod, it does not work.
This happens also with Gurjon's original 5.10, on the HTC Diamond (480x640), so I'll notify Gurjon about this.

2. I'm using the Hungarian language file, which means all the menus are in Hungarian. Except "Display arrow to the destination" (the little green arrow) - it is not translated, it is still English. This happens only on the 5.10_HP, not in Gurjon's original 5.10.
This setting is in Settings->Map screen->More options->second page->Display arrow to Destination (and in "setting_800_480.ui" file).
I observed that on the Diamond, Gurjon's 5.10, English_UK language, the setting is called "Display arrow to the Destination". On th iPAQ 316, I think the English_UK (or US?) says "Display Area to the Destination" (the PNA is in the car now).
Could it be that the 800x480_HP version has the wrong text "Display Area to the Destination", this is why the Hungarian translation does not work on that title?

I don't know how to fix the first problem, but I will try to correct the English text for the second problem, maybe the Hungarian translation will work. When I get to the iPAQ.

I downloaded 5.11, but haven't tested yet.

These are minor nitpicks to an otherwise perfect skin and mod.

You are right. I'm also wondered what the Area is :)
You can edit line 109 in file setting_800_480.ui to:
Code: Select all<CHECKBOX xxx template=chk_5a y=330 text="Display arrow to the Destination" var=vgjcompassdest>


Thank You for pointing to this. With next update I'll fix this minor bug.

How do I use the theme changer?

Jan 26th, 2009, 9:59 pm
Here's what I did, on the HTC Diamond:

- downloaded http://www.gurjon.com/download/index.ph ... gj5.11.zip (or just go to http://www.gurjon.com, to the Download section, and download the gjx.yy.zip file, where x and y are version numbers); do not unzip it;
- on the PDA, I created the "Internal Storage\iGO8\content\skin\" folder; if you already have it, skip this step;
- copied the "gj5.11.zip" file to the PDA, into "Internal Storage\iGO8\content\skin\" folder;
- started iGO;
- went to "Settings->second page->Menu->Skin" menu and selected the "GJ5.11 (DVS1&gurjon)" skin;
- restarted iGO.

================

If you want another language, instead of English, you can check the "LANGUAGES" folder on http://www.gurjon.com's Download section. I'm afraid there is no Spanish yet.

If you find your language's file on http://www.gurjon.com:

- download the language file you need, for example " lang_hungarian_511.zip"; do not unzip it;
- stop iGO;
- copy the downloaded file to the PDA, into "Internal Storage\iGO8\content\lang\" folder;
- if you have the original iGO language file (for example, "Lang_Hungarian_Pna.zip") in "Internal Storage\iGO8\content\lang\" folder, move it in another folder; otherwise, you will have the old and new language files for the same language; iGO8 will not know which to use;
- start iGO;
- select "Settings->Regional->Program language->your language";
- tap the checkmark;
- restart iGO.

==============

If you don't find your language's file on http://www.gurjon.com, or it's an older version than the skin (for example, the skin is v5.11 "gj5.11.zip", but you find only v5.10 "lang_french_510.zip" for the French language):

- solution 1: use the file for your language, even if it's older; install it the same way as detailed above; recommended;
- solution 2: use the original iGO8 language file; you install only the skin file (for example, "gj5.11.zip"), not the language file; do not change anything related to language.

Only the new settings will be in English, the old settings will be in your language. This is because Gurjon's language file does not overwrite all the setting titles, only the titles for the new features. Or so I understand.

===============

How to copy a file to the PDA?

If you keep iGO8 on a card, get a card reader:

- this is for Windows XP, but other OSs are similar;
- stop iGO;
- turn off the PDA;
- take the card out from the PDA;
- put the card in the card reader;
- connect the card reader to the computer, for example with a USB-miniUSB cable (should have come with the card reader);
- the card should show up in the computer's Windows Explorer as a portable drive;
- make the copying steps described above, but replace "Internal Storage\iGO8" with "portable drive name\iGO8", where "portable drive name" is something like "E:", "F:" or similar;
- on the computer, close Windows Explorer;
- go to the System Tray (bottom right corner of the screen) and hover the mouse over the icon that has a little green arrow from right towards left; it should look like Image;
- left-click on that icon; a text appears ("Safely remove....");
- click on the name of the drive that you copied the files to ("Safely remove....");
- disconnect the card reader from the computer;
- take the card out from tha card reader;
- put the card into the PDA;
- start the PDA;
- continue with the steps described above.

=====================

If you keep iGO8 in the flash:

- this is for the HTC Diamond, WM 6.1, but should work for other PDAs, as well;
- this is for Windows XP, but other OSs are similar;
- on the PDA, go to "Start->Settings->Connections tab->USB to PC";
- check the "Disk Drive" radio button;
- tap the "ok" button in the top right corner of the screen;
- connect the PDA to the computer, with a USB-miniUSB cable (should have come with the PDA);
- the PDA's flash drive should show up in the computer's Windows Explorer as a portable drive;
- make the copying steps described above, but replace "Internal Storage\iGO8" with "portable drive name\iGO8", where "portable drive name" is something like "E:", "F:" or similar;
- on the computer, close Windows Explorer;
- go to the System Tray (bottom right corner of the screen) and hover the mouse over the icon that has a little green arrow from right towards left; it should look like Image;
- left-click on that icon; a text appears ("Safely remove....");
- click on the name of the drive that you copied the files to ("Safely remove....");
- disconnect the PDA from the computer;
- on the PDA, go to "Start->Settings->Connections tab->USB to PC";
- check the "Activesync" radio button;
- tap the "ok" button in the top right corner of the screen;
- continue with the steps described above.

Hope I didn't make mistakes in the description.

Constantinus.

what files did you use to get this to work? I downloaded the files from here: http://www.adivor.it/forum/f72/igo-8-ca ... nger-8898/

copied the mortscript and themechanger.exe files to igo8. then put the xerxes files in the scheme folder. Switch my theme to autoday and auto night. then rebooted...nothing. put the themechanger.ui in the common folder, rebooted, nothing. am I missing a step?
