HI, everyone,


I decided to open this thread because I think that there is this application that most of us love to have on our smartphones: is the gps program call IGO My way. Myself, as many others, wouldn't buy a phone without gps capabilities and would not carry one without a reliable gps program that won't primarily rely on Internet/data connection as <<google maps>>.

The issue I am encountering here, is that the iGO 8 I used to have on my Galaxy SII has a resolution problem when I installed it on my new Galaxy SIII (half screen, icons very small, etc). When I had the HTC HD2 running on Windows Mobile, it was easy for me to correct that problem - just a "sys.txt" in which you would enter the desired resolution. But with Android is different...

Does anyone know how to fix the resolution of an older version of iGO, or did anyone manage to have a good copy of the latest iGO that works with Samsung Galaxy SIII and want to share?

Thank you.

This is your lucky day...lol...yes I have been using it on my s3 with full screen and perfect...the only thing is I can't get the tts voice to work properly to announce the streets names. Rather than that it's the best GPS I've always used on all my phones.
Attached is some photos ,one of them is showing the igo version that you should use......good luck.

3D maps work for me too and TTS voice also work but only worked 99% the 1% keep saying (volume=100) before the street name





Ps. All you have to do is put TTS zip in voice folder. might need to reset the phone to make it work

You just need to Google it and you will find it somewhere and you should be able to download it, but you need to put it in internal memory. Sorry I forgot where I download it from, otherwise I would've gave you the link.

2.4.1 is the latest?

I can't seem to find a US version. I found a full Europe version, with everything included, but that does me no good :p

Not sure how to find the latest version.

Look in the pictures above...this is the version you should use and it should work fine, all you need to do is dl the us maps.

For whoever has it fully working, could you RAR (or ZIP) all the content and upload it somewhere? I literally spent an hour trying to find an active link. Every link I found is down at this point.

EDIT-

FINALLY found it. Jeez, lol.

1280x720 is us, right?

did you have iGO Primo 2.0 (v9.6.7.235654) for Samsung Galaxy S3 install?

I had an extremely hard time finding any iGo Primo 2.0 that was active. I ended up finding iGO Primo 2.0 Android - Final Edition 2012 which had several apk versions and you're suppose to install the correct version for your phone and then change the sys text file to the one for your resolution.

I installed the 1280x720 apk and the 1280x720 sys text file but like I said, it gives me that error.

I just found an i9300 specific package, I'm installing it now (big file broken up into 7 or 8 zips, so it's taking a while).

You are awesome! Thank you much.

Do you know how to find the speed cam files? I found everything else (3D terrain, maps, etc) but cannot find speed cams. Are there any available for US?

yes speed cam files is build in it! to set it up go to (Igo8) setting/sound and warnings/alerts point setting/alert type

    IGO if anyone wanted this here's the zip with the maps already included that I saved from my sd. It's snout 750mb
    All you need to do is unzip and install the apk and you'll be in business.
