    Hi!
    I've posted a second video about Sygic, where you can see fullscreen-mode, portrait-mode and no warnings at the start.

    http://www.youtube.com/zehjotkah#p/u/0/Ap68fgJmCmo

    Also I've posted this How-To on my blog in german, too.

    http://zehjotkah.blogspot.com/2010/03/sygic-modden.html


    Fullscreen-mode:
    open X-Terminal and type in the following:
    Code:
    root
    vi /usr/share/applications/hildon/sygic.desktop
    move cursor with arrow buttons.
    click button "a" for editing mode.
    change
    Code:
    Exec=/opt/sygic/Drive/Maemo/drive -cwd=/home/user/MyDocs/Drive/Maemo
    to
    Code:
    Exec=/opt/sygic/Drive/Maemo/drive -cwd=/home/user/MyDocs/Drive/Maemo -rfull
    click Esc on screen for quit editing mode
    type in
    Code:
    :w
    and hit enter to save

    Next enable all menu entries (and therefore the portrait mode) and disable the warning.

    Connect your N900 with PC.
    Open the 32GB memory (for example G: )
    Change to this directory:
    Code:
    G:\Drive\Maemo
    rename menu.ini for example to menuold.ini.
    save and close

    open settings.ini.
    search for
    Code:
    showSafetyMsg=true
    and change it to
    Code:
    showSafetyMsg=false
    Attention! There are two lines, both have to end with =false.
    save end close


    If you have problems with lags read the post from D-Iivil:

    If you want to change the colors of the menu as well as the map colors, check out another post from dread123:

    If you want to remove the zoom-in and zoom-out buttons on the top check out another post from dread123:
    http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...6&postcount=79

    If you need to replace the sygic.desktop file (if you've made a mistake) and you know how to replace it: here is a clean, fullscreen-enabled one:

    Why do you need to connect the phone to a PC to edit the settings.ini file?
    It's right there in /home/user/MyDocs/Drive/Maemo, you can edit it using leafpad or vi, you can also easily make a backup of it using the cp command. Why this craziness?

    because it's easier for the average user.
    Users who know how to edit it with vi don't need my how-to...
    The first thing I'm editing with vi, because it's more difficult to get access to these file with your PC than editing with vi.

    you can use the maps from the symbian version, but please discuss here only the Sygic mods (there are far more things to mod, like map-color and so on) and use the other thread for non-mod related questions.

    How do you change the voices with different one (like TomTom can change to 'celebrity' voices) I prefer a female english speaking voice to the male speaking voice

    There is a Sygic Voice Packager, which can be used to record own voices.

    Has anyone been able to set higher volume? The device can do better... Maybe sygic cannot use highest volume somehow... And fm transmitter isn't the answer for this.
