Mio GPS unlock for Windows CE: On W1FKF's recommendation, I recently bought a Mio C320 GPS. I mainly bought it because it can easily be unlocked to be a. Unlock V7 Navigation 1000 GPS: Unlock the Windows CE environment on a V7 Navigation 1000 GPS device. The V7 1000 is a great, low cost ($300 CAN),.
Use Windows Explorer to navigate to 'Storage Card' and run C310Auto.exe. The Windows CE operating system will reboot and shortcuts will be copied to the desktop and other areas in RAM. The normal V7 application will launch.
Use Explorer again to find and execute 'Storage Card2ProgramsUtilsITaskMgr.exe'. Terminate the process 'realigolaunch.exe'.
You will now be presented with a Windows CE desktop. Tap the 'Taskbar' icon to unhide/hide the start button. Explore and have fun.
It would seem that renaming c310auto.exe to realigolaunch.exe and replacing the original 'realigolaunce.exe' in the 'Flash Disk' would cause the Windows OS to be immediately accessible on boot. However, I have opted for a more manual method, I don't always want or need full access to the OS. Usual Warning: Replacing 'realigolaunch.exe' on your device could potentially render your V7 unusable - do so at your own risk, I have not tested this.
There are more options for hacking the V7... You can change the MyGuide skin by replacing the bmp files in 'MYGUIDE.ZIP', found in the 'Flash DiskMyGuideSKIN' folder.
Please share your V7 modding experiences. What other changes have you been able to make? What useful applications could you get to run?
P.S. I have attached a ZIP archive of the c310auto tool, applications, and script. Play around with it and see what else you can get your V7 Navigation 1000 to do.
