MioPocket 4.0 (Unlock for GPS devices) video guide

MioPocket is a free "unlock" (or "hack") for GPS devices running Windows CE. It allows you to use your GPS device like a PDA. You can play videos and music, view images, read e-books, take notes, use the web (WiFi card or ActiveSync connection required), run the navigation app of your choice and more. MioPocket can be used with most makes and models of GPS devices, regardless of screen resolution or manufacturer (with the exception of Garmin and TomTom units, which are not Windows CE-based).

For reference sake, this video is of MioPocket 4.0 Release 66 on a Mio Digiwalker C320 with a 480x272 screen resolution.

FYI, most of the current YouTube videos of MioPocket show v3.0 or v2.0. You can add those skins via the Old Skins Add-on (also available at the above link), but most of the cool, new features shown in this v4.0 video (like touch scrolling) are not available with the older skins (which use an older shell program).

Thank's. BUT it is not a guide

[Osprey850]

@1TheSimpson Yes, it is. It guides you through the major features of the software and points them out much like a docent might guide you through a museum.

Wow thats is really cool, a SD card with WIfi, i just found one. I tell you people are becomming so smart with technology these days. Thanks for responding to my questions, i really do appriciate it. Really like this MioPocket. Can you tell me how to install a program? I recently downloaded NAVI Player, really like it in my auto as compared to the media player with Miopocket. seems i can only start it from the SDCard storage tho by the EXE. Can i install it so it will show on the MioMenu?

[Osprey850]

@RecoveryTTA Create an icon for it in MioPocket by tapping and holding an empty area and choosing "Add Icon." The Readme explains more if you need it. If, by "MioMenu," you mean the menu that came with your Mio device, you may be able to by replacing an executable that one of the menu buttons runs, but that's an issue unrelated to MioPocket, so I'm not the best person to ask.

Hi there! I do like your UI could I get this to run on a zt-180 Zinithink Tablet I got windows ce 6.0 on it. Idea's alot of people are looking for a good UI for It. Thanks Ed.

[Osprey850]

@ed209robocop It might work. It basically just needs Windows CE. I can't really add more than that, since I've never heard of anyone installing it on a tablet or one with that resolution. I would make sure that you can rescue the device by re-flashing if anything goes wrong.
