This repository is there to add some extra flair to your GarminNavigon device, but it's essential to tread carefully. Messing around with the operating system or other files could potentially lead to unintentional mishaps, and nobody wants a bricked device. So, have fun exploring the enhanced features, but proceed with caution. Make sure you've backed up your device before diving into the exciting world of customization. If you're unsure about anything, feel free to reach out via the Issues section. Happy tinkering, and may your device stay as lively as ever!

Apps

Additional apps add new features to the device. The following apps are available in the repository.

How to install?

  1. Connect your device to your computer via USB.
  2. Open the device storage on your computer.
  3. Copy the desired app folder from the "Apps" directory to the Apps folder in the main root of your Navigon device.
  4. Safely eject your Navigon device from your computer.
  5. Restart your device if necessary.
  6. Find the new app in the Apps drawer of your device.

Explorer

Explorer is the Windows Explorer application that provides direct access to the operating system of your device. Easily navigate through files and folders to manage and organize your content. After starting the app, you will have a taskbar at the bottom of the screen, which you can use to start various apps and functions within Windows. This app isn't really a new app but a shortcut to the explorer.exe in the Windows folder.

GarminTestMode

GarminTestMode is a test application developed by Garmin. This application allows you to perform various tests on your device, ensuring its functionality and performance. This isn't really a new application but a shortcut to the garmintestmode.exe in the Windows folder.

VWPaint

VWPaint is a notepad application designed for quick and easy note-taking on your Navigon device. Jot down important information, reminders, or anything you need to remember on the go. This app was originally distributed with VW firmwares and wasn't included in Seat and Skoda distributions.

TotalCommander

TotalCommander is a powerful file management application that provides a user-friendly interface for efficient file and folder operations. This specific version came from digital-eliteboard.com and is not developed by me, but I made a shortcut for it so it would work with the 4NSF menus.

VWBeamlight

VWBeamlight is an app that adds a high beam animation to the screen of your device. This app was originally distributed with VW firmwares and wasn't included in Seat and Skoda distributions.
