Speed limit shows in MPH actual Speed shows in KMPH ! Help

Postby sjpage10 » Wed Apr 23, 2014 2:13 pm

HI ,
I have successfully installed IGo Primo2 with Maps and Speed cameras for the UK and it's great however
I have speed limits on as permanent and the warning set at 10% that works great however the speed shown
in the bottom left corner just below the percentage of the speed limit is in KMPH !

does anyone know how to set this to MPH ?

everywhere else it shows up as MPH

Thanks in advance

Stef

I remember this being a problem with early versions of primo, using a skin corrected it.
Currently sleeping...

Do you have the right settings under "Regional"? (Settings-> Regional-> Units and Formats)?
Are you using a skin?

Try to delete the "save" folder at the root of the program, and restart the program.

If I could take it one step further. After deleting the save folder, completely shutdown your device, wait a few seconds and re-start.
If it ain't broke don't fix it!
ALWAYS BACK-UP YOUR FILES/FOLDERS BEFORE MAKING EDITING CHANGES!

Please do NOT post any thanks. Simply press the hand icon with the "thumb up" which is the thank you button.

Sorry to jump in here, is there a way to delete the save folder from within the programs or do i have to keep on running in and out of the house with sim card in hand? its just the comment above about shutting down when you delete folder ?

No, there is no way to delete the save folder from within the program.
Maybe, if you have one, you can take your laptop with you to the car...

Hi Stef,

I noticed this as well and it drove me nuts! After many hours of hacking away I'm pleased to share my solution to the above problem!

Image

Download Total Commander and install Notepad++ (Both easy to find on Google).

Use Total Commander to edit your Data.zip, I found that to be the easiest way to open data.zip and edit without problems.

Step 1: Open up your data.zip file with Total Commander and navigate to: ui_igo9\common\ui

Step 2: Find navigatemap.ui and open it up with whatever text editor you use, I use Notepad ++

Step 3: Find the line that reads:

Code: Select all
<TEXT class="font_sec bd" left=10% top=63% w=40% h=30% z=100 align="CENTER" fonttype=(sc_GetAdvancedSpeedLimitPhase(%navigation.car.current_speed, %warning.driveralert.speed_limit) ? error_red : speedcam) text=%navigation.car.current_speed visible=(!%warning.driveralert.speed_limit_condition.valid)>


Step 4: Change it to:

Code: Select all
<TEXT class="textpadding font_sec bd"  textmodel_speed="navigation.car.current_speed" mode=1 displaypart=2 left =10% top=63% w=50% h=30% z=100 align="CENTER" >


The only thing that doesn't work is that the speed doesn't turn red when you go over the speed limit but hey I can live with that!

Hope this helps someone else with their OCD!!!!

Kind regards

Mac
