Nav N Go iGO 8 on the Universal

[JohnWB]

Has anyone tried to use Nav N Go iGO 8 on the Universal. It installs Ok but when I try to connect to my Holux Satnav unit, it cannot find it. I scans all the ports, including the one I usualy use, but does not see it. TomTom 6 & Memory Map both find the Holux so I know it is Ok. Anyone have any ideas.

You much pair your B/T GPS device first and set outgoing port.

I have done that & set an outgoing port which the other programmes see ok

Also remember to manually turn BT on before running iGO8.
Unlike TomTom, iGo8 doesn't automatically turn BT on.

I deleted the pairing with the Holux & redid it & it works fine now. Thanks for the advice.

I have found I have the same problem, plus the routing is a bit strange compared to my TomTom 6 so I will stick with TomTom.

I have iGO 8 running on my Qtek...it runs fine, no out of memory msg but I have to say that I run Mo3ulla WM6 vanilla Rom which has after softreset 30,5MB of prog mem free...

While running iGO I have around 4,5mb prog mem over. I also overclock my Qtek while on iGO, runs 10x smoother than TT6. The 3D buildings I switched off, all the rest I leave "on". About the "strange" routing I have not seen a big difference compared to TT6.

The only reason I have TT6 stil on my PDA is that from time to time I forget the iGO8 memory card...
