its the same actually whether ure doing it with jb or without.. instead of sshing into the phone and get to the respective folder, u just have to open the ipa file in your itunes folder via winrar.. then copy and paste the required files , and restart ur itunes ( duno if its necessary) and sync it into ur phone.. thats about it i think
Hope it helps though |

QUOTE(red-queen @ Feb 6 2010, 08:29 PM) I have read about past post in MFM forum about using winrar to access the ipa file and replace the original maps with the lastest one from MFM. However the modified ipa cannot be used on iphone that is not jb. Installation via itune will report error ( ... resources have been modified etc, cannot install ...)However, still there are ppl claim can upgrade maps without jb. However, someone can provide details. Thanks. |

Bought PPG as well
the map very accurate, however, I have some problem the application will crash when click on the 'near POI' search. however, this fixed when I SSH and install the new updated map from mfm. the UI is horrible~ lol.. the slide very slow, GPS lock okay, routing okay, map detail BEST! even update till Kampar UTAR Block E also have the road in the map... lol.. |

QUOTE(my44 @ Feb 6 2010, 09:18 AM) Like I mentioned previously, to debug the GPS functionality, I will open Google Map app, touch the blue circle button to see whether your GPS can lock your position. After the tiny blue dot becomes smaller and more precise, quit the map and launch your 3rd party apps (papago, TomTom). Strange. many others doesn't have problem right from installation. there must be some difference in terms of fw version, jb/non jb etc that cause thisIf your apps still indicate 'searching for GPS signal' then it's not the GPS chip that have issues. It's the apps. Added on February 8, 2010, 10:24 am QUOTE(xphossis @ Feb 6 2010, 07:00 AM) Malfreemaps.comFind the download section. Look for latest Papago for android/iphone version. install and you are good to go. Guess later many will flock to Mfm for free map..hopefully you guys do some favour by contributing pois etc to mfm to grow it further. the more you give, the more you will get..in terms of detailed map of course Added on February 8, 2010, 10:29 am QUOTE(safilo @ Feb 6 2010, 08:24 PM) Hi, can you elaborate please. I have download new MFM Pagago map, and update the maps in the .ipa. However, always got error during installation (resources had been modified ..) First thing first.Overall, I am happy with the Papago Pro edition. 19.95 well spent. To use the lastest map, have to jb the iphone. It would be great if someone can share with us how to install new maps with the Papago For Iphone without the need for jb. Thanks. Map update can be done via BOTH JB and non JB. the winrar/winzip method is for non JB And for those have problem like error during installation, please, 1. Install first WITHOUT any modification (means original Papago maps) 2. Later you update the map using winrar. As a precaution, do backup the original Papago maps so if anything goes horribly wrong, you can restore to original. This post has been edited by mmmbop: Feb 8 2010, 10:29 AM |
