UNLOCK AND SHELL FOR MIO MOOV
Dalibor Lanik
VisualGPS
VisualGPS is a shell and unlock for Mio devices. Normaly, on MioMoov, you only have your GPS
software (MioMap 2008). With unlock, you can benefit from the fact that most nav devices use Windows
CE (a version of Windows Mobile that doesn't have all applications, desktop and today screen) and that
they can run other software as well. With unlock, you can use almost all other navigational (GPS)
programs, such as Garmin, TomTom, iGO or Destinator.
The latest version has been downloaded more than 35.000 times! Download now and see why
this shell is so popular!
One part of the Shell is on the Flash Disk (internal GPS memory), while the installation scripts and
unlocks that are not needed once the system boots, can be either on Flash Disk or on SD card (to save
space on Flash Disk). The card can also be used as a trigger to start the boot process so you don't have
to modify anything on your GPS' Flash Disk.
VisualGPS should run on all Mio Moov devices, Mio Spirit and on some Mio DigiWalker (C) devices. It
might even run on certain non-Mio brands. What is required is that you have device with Windows CE and
480x272 resolution screen. TomTom and Garmin devices are Linux-based and, therefore, can't run
VisualGPS. But in reality, VisualGPS was tested only on European Mio Moov 360, European Mio Moov
330 and European Mio DigiWalker C520. If you get it to run on another device (mio or non mio) feedback
would be appreciated. You will need approx. 130Mb free space on your device for Visual GPS, plus
additional 30Mb (either on SD card or flash disk) if you want to install additional wallpapers.
VisualGPS comes with several freeware programs, not as much as other unlocks, because we are
running this on nav device, and most of these programs are hard to use without buttons or stylus. I tried to

include only essential software and utilities; i.e. audio and video media players, picture viewers, word,
excel, powerpoint and pdf viewers, book reader, etc. Also included are several GPS utilities. You can set
paths to nav programs direcly from the shell and you can also set wallpapers and volume. The buttons are
big on purpose so you can press them while driving ;-)
Now, the cool thing about Visual Shell is that it is very customizable. As you can see from the screenshots below, you can
completely change it's appearance in a couple of seconds! All without the need to know complex skinning. Just select the
combination of button design and wallpaper you like the most. But that's not where it ends. You can make it as big or as small
as you like. If you are GPS nerd, you can install up to 60 different GPS navigation programs! If you need office apps or
multimedia apps, you can have those screens. If you like to play games, you can have games screens. But what if all you want
to do is run one GPS program? No problem! Visual Shell can be as big or as small as you wish:
From full blown shell with 10 screens:
to the simple one-screen shell with all necessary functions on one screen:
Even that is too much for you? Well, then just set your favorite GPS app (i.e. iGo Primo or TomTom) to be run immediately on
turning on the GPS and you will never see the shell at all (unless you exit the GPS program).
Maybee the best way to understand how visual shell works is to see it in action:

Second Info screen (by pressing the tab):
"SD Card" button rescans GPS apps in case you are using multiple SD cards with
different GPS apps on each. This button also rescans wallpapers on SD card.
Chip icon let's you set RAM used for storage. By default it is set to 1Mb (of 64), By
increasing storage memory, you make more space for applications to store their temporary data, but they
have less RAM in which to execute. In my experience, 1Mb (minimum) is just enough for storage, so more
RAM is available for programs.
