Hi Vinnie,

Just a question. When driving along the boulevard Zandvoort-Bloemendaal the Northsea is green on the screen. All other waters are blue coloured. Can you see if you have the same on your igo? And if so, is there a way to change this?
Using navall 1 android with igo primo.

Like to hear from you.

Thanks, Gerard

A download link is not very useful because you can only download the files as a registered user on igo8navigation.
I'll go and have a look now.

Found the problem. The skins in this folder are mostly 800*480 in resolution. However, the Navall1 is 800*600 and iGo has been programmed for this resolution. According to iGo these skins aren't compatible with your resolution, and won't show them as an option.
You can edit the sys.txt file to make it use a different resolution, but your screen will be totally messed up, and very much unusable.

With the day theme that area also appears to be green, perhaps to show that it's an ocean and not just a lake or river??
At the night theme, they are all the same color.

So you have the same.
maybe for the different, but the color green is the same as the landscape so you think it's land and not sea. I will have a look at the Northsea from GB when I'm in the car.

Thanks for looking into it. But the strange thing is the NavAll1 has a res of 800x480 as stated on the website from Sean.

I unpacked the zip files into their own subfolders in ./iGo/Content/skin but no luck

Where to place the unpacked files? I really need a cleaner skin with higher contrast so I don't have to lean over at 80 Mph to see where I have to go

Tx!

PS. Anyone know if there are analogue LCD touch screens

In that case I'm mistaken and will have to take another look at it... Sorry about that...

Unzipping them won't work, the files need to stay zipped. The files inside the zip can be used without unzipping them.

Hi Vinnie,

I came to understand that after some serious browsing yesterday evening. So unzipped files have been removed.

Browsing through various fora across the world all I could find was: place the zips in the folder skin and than it should work. Unfortunately it does not.

So I am wondering.... does anyone with a NavAll1 and iGO Primo have the ability to select another skin? If so, can I compare the folder structure and or settings with my installation?

Oh and by the way all ZIP files have 644 as permission so any app/user can read the files

Little gentle bump here (not in the habit of it, mind you ):

Does anyone with a NavAll1 and iGO Primo have the ability to select another skin?

Looking forward.....

Totally forgot about this... sorry Sjonnie.
I did have a bit of a play with it, but without succes. I didn't look further than "a little play".
If I've got some spare time today or tomorrow I'll think of some ways it could perhaps be done.'

Hi Vinnie,

No need to apologize. Your effort is much appreciated.

I hoped there were others who could confirm they could change skins. But apparently ...

Tx!
