Hi everyone!
Please help me. I tried to unlock my navman 470. It went badly wrong. It says: "program application database cannot be found". It's freezed after Mio welcome message. I can't edit or I can't enter into the flash memory. The PC don't see my device.

Thanks

What exactly did you do?

I found an another description, its tell: rename AppStartupSec.exe to oldAppStartupSec.exe and copy the igo8.exe and rename to AppStartupSec.exe reboot and the Igo will start. I did it because I'm stupid.

how can I reinstall the gps? Is there any solution of hard reset? What can I do? My parents will be angry and I say goodbye to my pin-money....

Do you have a backup?

Yes of course, but the gps has internal flash memory and the pc doesn't see it.

Post the contents of app_startup.txt

I'll prepare something, It may not work.

Here you are:

Does the Mio/Navman 470 have a SD card slot?

No, it hasn't.

Ahhhhhh Cr@p!, Unfortunately my idea requires a SD card, Your only hope is to open the device and short some test pins to try to force a USB connection.

Here is a post with some procedures to try.

And this is from the MioPocket Readme.txt

My Mio Moov won't boot or connect to USB!

If this has happened to you (usually because you renamed AppStartupSec.exe or modified paths.xml, both of which you should never do), turn the device off and, while it's off, connect the USB cable (which, on the other end, is connected to your computer), then turn the device on. If a USB connection is not established, repeat this many, many times by turning the device off and back on; eventually, it may connect. If it connects, undo the file & folder changes that you did to the flash drive.

[color="red"]This is what i was going to suggest but it needs a SD card[/color]
Another thing to try is to get an SD card and create a "Cobia" folder on it that corresponds to section 2.2a4B (SD installation instructions for Moovs). Next, copy MioAutoRun\Programs\FileManCE2\FileManCE.exe to that folder and rename it to Auto.exe. Finally, put the device's power switch in the reset position, then in the on position, and as soon as the "USB connection" screen is shown (if it's shown), insert the SD card. If it works, the FileMan file browser will launch. At that point, undo the file & folder changes that you did to the flash drive.

If both of those tricks don't work, there *may* be a way to establish a USB connection by opening up the Moov and shorting two pins. Poster "al13lea" came up with this. Here is my interpretation of his instructions:
1. Open the Moov's case by removing two little screws.
2. Notice 4 pins near the RESET/OFF/ON switch in which pins 1 & 2 form a pair and, slightly further away, pins 3 & 4 form a pair (ex. "|| ||" or "1 2 3 4").
3. Connect the Moov through the USB cable to your computer.
4. Take a piece of conductive medal (such as a coin) and touch both of (and only) the middle two pins (pins 2 & 3) with it. If nothing happens after a few seconds, try doing the same with the two left-most pins (pins 1 & 2).
5. If successful, you should have the device recognized in Windows. At that point, undo the file & folder changes that you made earlier and which caused the problem.

Good luck!

You are THE MAN, many many thanks.

"The turn the device off and, while it's off, connect the USB cable (which, on the other end, is connected to your computer), then turn the device on.

This is working, now I see the memory again and copying back the backup. I hope it will work.

The GOD name is "FATBOYFUN" till now!!!!!!!!!

Thanks again!

That is great news :D It doesn't always work so luck was on your side today!!!

For future reference i always use [Please Register or Login to download file] unlock on Moov based devices

Follow the instructions entited Installation Navman F10, F15, F25, S-Series, C-Series / Mio Moov-Series
