Thread: AULRO Subscriber Offer - cheap on-road/off-road GPS units

    Damn.
    Was about to go to bed and thought...
    Any how, I can now run the file manager - without being able to read Chinese

    Trying to run OziExplorer though gives an error message - in Chinese of course. Well I am pretty sure it is an error since Ozi will not run
    I think I need to be able to get Ozi to run first before I bother with a new menu system. If I can't get Ozi to run there is no point. The only things I want to use will be iGo and Ozi. If i want to listen to music i would use cd player or iPod. And I don't have a bluetooth device of any sort.

    Thanks for your help anyway.

    Mike

    It helps if you read all the instructions on the GPSUnlock site (the same information and files that used to be on the DealExtreme site) sand if you follow the steps in order.
    All the files and all the instructions you need are there.
    Juming in without reading all the instructions or mising steps in the procedure will almost certainly lead to frustration.

    I've been able to setup my GPS with a menu for Ozi and Igo. My unit has different internal names but the menu works well having replaced the path names in the menu and modified the co-ordinates for my 800x480 display. I have no desire to use the unit as a Windows computer nor to play songs etc, but I did want to be able to easily select Ozi or Igo.
    Thanks Ranga.

    The other issue is that the unlocks may no longer work because of firmware changes in the GPS


    Cheers

    JLo,

    You are quite right.
    I have just tried to unlock another unit from DealExtreme using Ranga's DVD.
    It worked perfectly on the prevoius 4 units (same model)
    However tis time the unit has locked up. It will not go past start up screen.
    Of course this is the only time I did not back up the registry(how dumb).

    I have another two units arriving shortly. So before I work on these unit a lot of searching will be necessary.

    Dave.

    The "pez" menu should still work because that is started as a separate 'program' that you can start through the settings>>nav selection, but the YFAP30 changes may be where one may come unstuck. This would just mean that you don't get all the extra programs.

    Some other softeware that you may want to try on the YFGPS is MioPocket. It replaces everything. Excellent stuff. GpsPasSion Forums - MioPocket 3.0 (Unlock for PNAs)

    I'm off fishing for a week.

    Cheers and good luck.

    Interesting to say the least.
    Dave, is the one that "locked up" on you the same one that this thread recommends (the one I bought) at:
    DealExtreme

    The one that I got has software version: 3.09.26
    but the Dealextreme link (above) says to download a firmware update:
    3.0.9.11 which appears to be dated 31/03/2009

    Why would I want to upload an older version than what I have?

    I am glad you posted the problem Dave, I was just about to follow the instructions as per GPSUNLOCK.NET

    Edit: Just found this explanation, so there is an update to 3.0.12.8 just looking in the wrong place

    Miky,

    The units I have been buying from DealExtreme are the ones Ranga originally talked about. Model 23569.
    The previous units which converted Ok were recieved in October 2009.
    The one I have problems with I received this week. To be honest did not take a note of the Rom or software numbers. Just needed to get unit unlocked for a friend before he went away. I have given him my unit, which was OK.
    I expect to receive new units within 2 weeks so I will check all the details then.
    The problem I have is that the unit will not load past the startup page, and I cannot turn it off. I have to wait untill the battery flattens. I have tried to reinstall all the software but nothing is working, and windows does not recognise the unit.
    Of course, I was silly enough this time, not to back up anything.

    Dave

    Dave.
    That is the unit I have and it arrived 19th January so it is most probably the same as you have problems with.
    I have no idea how to backup/copy the registry. Did a Google but could not find a simple explanation.

    I hope that you can find a resolution to the problem.

    I am off to Tassie soon, so for me it will have to wait until I get back - mid March.

    Mike
