Is there anyone who has Primo working on a Sony nav-u 92 tw??

I have seen reports of iGO8.3 working.

Where have you seen this reports about igo8.3 working??

I've seen articles before and they come up on ebay occasionally, but i've never seen an actual device though.

Okey i'll understand.

You mean they are like Jesus ...... everyone has heard of him but no one has seen him ......

A bit of research shows that it's easy to unlock and install iGO but gaining access to the GPS hardware is tricky, But not impossible.

Got primo running on my sony nav 93 ok, but getting it to detect a satellite is the tricky bit.

Seen posts on the web of people saying they have got it fully running on a sony but no-one has posted how.

Mr Fatboyfun, can you give me any pointers??? Please....

Arhh just seen your postings on another thread, will have a look at that, thanks

From memory (I am at work) you need to use portsplitter and poss some other tools.

Well don't keep it to yourself!

Yeah come on sporty21

Know you have been looking for a solution for a long time, so if you do have one, then let us all know

this is how I get it run.
open "Mounted Volume \ Primo (or iGO8)

data.zip, then open the \ config \ devices,

insert this file navu.ini
[interface]
resolution_dir="480_272"
vga=0
shutdown_time=0

[rawdisplay]
class="landscape"
screen_x=480
screen_y=272

Thanks sporty, tried it but unfortunatly didnt work for me. Still not detecting satellites.

Trying to get Primo working on a sony has become a bit of a challange, but I think now will have to revert back to igo8 which works fine, but I will still keep looking around to see if someone else comes up with a solution!

You may have done so already but look in the sys.txt of iGO 8.3 for entries specific to your device and put those entries in Primo.

I thought you received advice from somewhere else. Going to other place for advice will only conflict and you'll never get it right.
