Do you have any mod F/W for 765SG/MY to use thai_tts? I'm so new for this modify and afraid that I will brick my unit.

For those reading this thread, I just released an updated version of RGNVoiceEditor. It is easier than ever to add new voices to your GPS and get rid of the "Incompatible Audio Version" message.

Change log from v1.08 to v1.10

- Runs faster
- Displays more than 15 voices. You have full access to all the voices in the file not just the first 15.
- Fixed an issue causing a runtime error using the nuvi 2465 .rgn file

I'd like to know too!

First, I didn't know there was a Garmin software for the iPad. Do you have a link? I have an iPad now. It would be fun to try. Then, maybe I can do something for the voices, but iPad is normally protected against software modifications. Still, it may be worth to try.

Most iPhone Apps will also work on iPad. Use the install guide for Garmin StreetPilot Onboard for iPhone.

Open iExplorer and turn your pc settings to show hidden files.

Go to the phone disk iPhone - Apps - USA - Garmin-nav.app - storage-usa -. System
and delete existing files there gmapprom.img gmap3d.img, then add your map files. You can also download the JCV file to iPhone - Apps - USA - Garmin-nav.app - storage-usa -. System - JCV

Voice prompts: iPhone - Apps - USA - Garmin-nav.app - storage-usa - Voice
add voice files.

Well, I am not going to pay 60$ to use it only from my home (no 3G package for me). Someone please unzip the package and send me one or more .vpm file. At least, I need one English voice. I'd like to compare it with the ones we have on our handheld gps.

To unzip, just rename or add the extension .zip to the .ipa file in your iTune folder on your computer or use iExplorer to extract the .vpm from your iPad/iPhone (thanks to Bellebar for the link. - Cool!. I'm new to the iPad stuff. Just got one a week ago.)

Edit: ok. Found what I wanted. No jailbreak for iPad 3 yet?
