havent seen that but it would invalidate your warranty if it broke youve no where to get it repaired and things arent cheep i would not recomend doing anything like this as devices like the navman icn tomtom go etc are only designed to run the software it came with

DO NOT TRY THIS

The iCN510 is just a rebranded Mio 136 Pocket Pc with the Navman software installed and locked. The extra functions are core to the unit and could have been provided to us if Navman chose to do so. In addition, other units from Mio and Median are being "unlocked" by their owners daily with no issues. Maybe Alex776 works for Navman-I'm sure they aren't going to like this!! The 510 running TomTom nav. 5 is what this unit should have been in the first place.

They shouldn't be any different as both units use the same Win CE NET 4.2 core.

Just tried this and it works well, Navman software is unaffected, and you get a useful calculator, mp3 player, picture viewer etc.

Can someone spell the instructions out for me in a language similar to that used for the speed camera instructions as I would love to be able to have this option.
I didn't follow the Dutch guys explanation a bit.
I'm using a 256MB card, will that take the extra software?

I've had it confirmed by someone from Navman that unlocking the Navman device will invalidate their warranty, so be careful out there.

If that's the case Tim, can't wait until it's a year old.

Could either please give us a blow by blow account of how you did it in English Please and what happens when you switch unit on and off.
