Well, GPS is well working.

The only issue is that with the language..
and i cannot have voice guidance (i think its related with the language error)

Don't have my laptop on me, but it might be due to your phone's settings system wide. You will need to identify the guidancemodel function and replace en_us with the corresponding Greek one in codeToFolder.

Code:

_codeToFolder: {
            "en-GB": "english",
            "fr-FR": "french",
            "de-DE": "german",
            "es-ES": "spanish",
            "it-IT": "italian",
            "sv-SE": "swedish",
            "da-DK": "danish",
            "no-NO": "norwegian",
            "fi-FI": "finnish",
            "en-US": "english_us",
            ....
             "el-GR": "greek",

can't test it, but hopefully it'll work. Good luck

in the code to folder array change

"en-US": "english_us",
to
"en-US": "greek",

and try that

Otherwise I can test it in a few days (currently in Hawaii on Holidays

)

Hi,
thanks for this nice work!

For some reason the html5 version did not work for me (I did the wav renaming correctly); the version with python server runs well.
I have made little changes, e.g. to leave the python server running
forever (no shutdown) and listening only on 127.0.0.1 interface for security.

Works nicely with the fm transmitter and car radio, too, after
a little hack to avoid automatic turn off of the transmitter during
long silence periods.

Concerning the language, I think that it should be able to change
the language for the street name (passed to espeak) dynamically, according to the current location. I am not familiar enough with javascript to code this. The python script could be easily adapted
to switch language for espeak dynamically, but I have no idea how
to find out from the position in the map in which country (and its language region) you are.

The whole process of getting the improved navigation up and running was not really straightforward, so I have gathered
the necessary information in a mini-howto http:////www.pittnerovi.com/jiri/hob...900/index.html.

6.1 cd /usr/share/nokia-maps/html ; ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/navigation_sounds/english_us .o 6.2 change SOUNDPATH in speak_02.py if using different language directory 7. nohup ./speak_02.py >/dev/null &

I'm guessing this should probably read:

6.1 cd /usr/share/nokia-maps/html ; ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/navigation_sounds/english_us .o

6.2 change SOUNDPATH in speak_02.py if using different language directory

7. nohup ./speak_02.py >/dev/null &

Hi Blaizzen. Does the file, showCategories.png, (makes the letters POI) go with the blank icon below the checkered flag that controls whether you see the poi locations on the screen. If so, for some reason, it does not appear. I'm pretty sure I put in the correct location. Any idea here?

Thanks

It should yes, and oddly enough, my version works half the time with that damn icon

. Thought it was just me, but I'll try fix it up sometime if its happening to others too. Thanks for that
