Sorry, yes you have to replace "true" by "false", sorry. Can't upload it at the moment, I'm not at home untile next friday.

Replacing the BT folder doesn't help. I think navigon changed the interface to the bt driver/api. So it crashes with the old driver/api. I think the reason is the new internet feature for weather...

You already tried false instead of true?

Thanks for you r reply Cuxx,

Yes, I did try with "false" instead of "true" in the places you mention... It does not help and the system is still rebooting...

Here is the content of my Watchdog_HX.ini file :

[General]
ShowMessageBox = false
ActionAtTimeout = 1
ActionAtTermination = 1

[Executable]
Name = HW Watchdog
StartupTime=100000

[PartitionChecker]
UsePartitionChecker = true
ForceInitialScan = true

[PartitionChecker_Partition1]
CheckPartitions = true
FolderName = MN Settings
StoreName = DSK1:
PartitionName = MNSET
PartitionName2 = Part01
RebootIfCheckFails = false
Deletefolder = true
CheckDisk = false
OpenStoreTimeout = 1000
CeGetVolumeInfoTimeout = 5000

[PartitionChecker_Partition2]
CheckPartitions = true
FolderName = My Flash Disk
StoreName = DSK1:
PartitionName = MYFLASH
PartitionName2 = Part00
RebootIfCheckFails = false
Deletefolder = false
CheckDisk = false
OpenStoreTimeout = 1000
CeGetVolumeInfoTimeout = 5000

[PartitionChecker_Partition3]
CheckPartitions = false
FolderName = Storage Card
StoreName = DSK2:
PartitionName = Part00
RebootIfCheckFails = false
Deletefolder = false
CheckDisk = false
OpenStoreTimeout = 1000
CeGetVolumeInfoTimeout = 5000

[HWWatchdog]
UseHWWatchdog = true
HWWatchdogType = WolfSafety
Timeout = 100000

[NamedEvent1]
Name = MNRefreshEvent
Timeout = 100000

[NamedEvent2]
Name = UserShellRefreshEvent
Timeout = 40000

[NamedEvent3]
Name = PhoneApplicationRefreshEvent
Timeout = 40000

[NamedEvent4]
Name = MMPRefreshEvent
Timeout = 40000

Any difference with yours ?

Have you tried to rename both, the "VwBrandDevice" dir & the "BrandDevice.reg" file?

Please try to rename one back to the original. Try both variants. I had the same problem at the beginning. I remember I also tried to take my old (from the Backup) "VwBrandDevice" directory. Maybe I had a special sequence, that brought it to work.

OK i tried navigation today. The first try ended in a crash in the menu, where I can choose the route. After a reset it started directly with the navigation.

Thinks that doesn't work:
- playing music from sdcard (the screen is ok, but there is no soundoutput)
- have to reset the device, when you want to start with navigation

Thinks that work:
- statusscreen
- showing the radiostation that you are listening

I think I will go back to the Navigon-version at the weekend
 
Hello,

Today i try to hard reset my PID.
After that and update to 7.13.10 my PID asked to be plugged in the car and it automatically detect the car model.
I think there is a hidden partition where all these configuration are stored but don't know how to show it or edit it.
Do you think it's possible to change the autorunce.exe like on some Navigon PND to allow us to show the Windows CE desktop and to go edit folder/registry/apps installed on PID ?

Thanks.

Performance Display for FR

Hi folks,
i have just done a little hack with my Seat Portable System to show the performance display for all SEAT Ibiza Models (with SPS connectivity).
I think this should be very useful and funny to FR owners like me.:D

If some one wants the Performance display on their car, just download the following file and replace it on Navigator\VwUserShell path. Before replace the file, please save a copy of the original one. I totaly recommend a full backup with FRESH too.

Any question just ask.

File: **w.4shared.com/rar/PYh_JBo1ba/VwUserShell.html

So what exactly have you done with this hack? How have you made it work on the other models? Is it just using the files from the cupra firmware or is it more intricate than that?

Hi Enog,
To do the trick i just had to change the binary code of the original VwUserShell.exe.
I spent some days trying understanding the original code to do that right.
After some "research", i realized that some times the application calls one function that reads data from a Flash memory that contains information about the car. The original VwUserShell.exe is exactly the same to all cars, even to Skodas and VW. When this file starts to execute, it will ask "the car" about its brand and model. So, i started thinking that with some changes on the code, maybe i could make the application thinking that the car is a Cupra model instead of a normal Seat. :funk:

turboboy has a Navigon device and a Cupra. It doesn't seem currently possible to get everything on the Garmin working properly on the Navigon device. What would you plan on doing with the compiled executable?

I want see if the version of the Navigon application has the same features like the garmin version.
 
@Pher Thnaks for your files, just test it on my 1.2 TSI 2012 facelift Ibiza and my up to date Garmin PID and I have the Performance Display \o/

All seems to work except the GForce screen maybe i don't have the sensor.

Thanks



ps: can you explain your technique and where you have made change in .exe (reflector ? Hexadecimal ? Assembly language?)
with your modification we can make VW ThinkBlue system works on Garmin PID and Seat.?

Yes, the G-force isn't working on my Garmin too. It's almost certain that only the Cupra have this type of sensor.
I have used IDA Pro to convert the .exe to assembly. All the changes has been made on a hex editor. Regaring the VW Think Blue, i'm not sure if it will work in paralell with the Performance Display, but i can give a try...

Pher Hello, I would like to send my "VwUserShell" folder, since I have a Navigon, simply impossible to send
