Re: Replacing A Damaged MIO KR GPS Screen?

hey! thanks to whoever moved this into its own thread! I didn't quite know where to post this :oops: If anyone has an idea of what model the screen is, or where to get it, I'd be real happy... they stopped selling the KR GPS and I kind of like it. I guess I might have to simply pop it open and try t...

Replacing A Damaged MIO KR GPS Screen?

I recently moved, and my mio KR GPS seems to have been damaged: the screen is cracked, I see nothing but white and a black spot. I don't mind opening the device, but where to I get a replacement screen? What model?

thanks.

Re: (READ) Last G P S mod post!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the notification!

I won't have time to install it until next year, tough. LOL. (yeah, that's in like 12 hours!)

can't wait to see what the new canadian maps will bring to us in the Montreal area.

Merci beaucoup!!

Re: My 3rd KR GPS Mod

Well, I do not have areas "not covered" by the maps, but I do have a lot of places where the maps are out dated and the physical street I am on is totally missing from the map, with the GPS suggesting I go back to the road immediately. If that is suitable for you, then I am more then willi...

Re: My 3rd KR GPS Mod

Does that means we could find old iGo maps compatible with that? altough I assume they won't be any good as update... there are several areas of the actual map even in the metropolitan area that aren't all that good. It still is a good navigator, but you cannot expect to pinpoint the destination to ...

Re: My 3rd KR GPS Mod

I can't wait to change the voicepack. I think the reboot issue is caused by something within the voicepack not loading correctly: every instances of the map that causes a soft- or hard- reset is when I need to take a left exit on the highway; if I change the voice to a non-KITT voice (lame, I know) ...

Re: My 3rd KR GPS Mod

That's great! I've been browsing trough the files within the device's flash drive and tought there would be a way; but my knowledge of the Mio GPSes and the Knight Rider GPS is very limited, having owned mine for only 48 hours as we speak. What I tought would be doable is to use the faulty software ...

Re: Mio Knight Rider GPS

So if you update the maps, you loose KITT voice guidance? There should be a way to manually reinstall the KITT voice once the update is done, no? what are others doing? not updating? I mean, every year there are changes in streets, etc. what is to happen next year when your streets aren't compliant ...

Re: My 3rd KR GPS Mod

I ended up connecting the mio device to my computer, browsing to the KITT data, and making my own YAN file; I edited Ryan and a bit of Tanya in order to get the proper phonetics, and ended up with a satisfactory file. Can we "ADD" a name? at this point I had to overwrite one that I don't t...

Re: My 3rd KR GPS Mod

Great mod! I just acquired one Knight Rider GPS (in-store demo from the canadian version of Radio Shack) and am starting to look into it. I kinda understand I need to keep away from the miomore software that came with it? anything more a newbie need to know? Anyway... GREAT MOD! I am starting to loo...
