I used the pngs from the download on the first page.

It would appear so, when my iPhone has finished updating I will load the V1,7 released today and see if this latest little challange can be worked out, yours is about the fifth post I have seen so far on this issue - Mike

Confirmed. I renamed all my *.png files back to *.bmp. I then used a free Windows program called IrfanView to batch convert them all to png files and ticked a box in IrfanView's advanced batch settings to convert to 24 bit (as I had a few that were only 8 bit). Uploaded them back to the iPhone and no more red squares when using v1.7

Updated to v1.7 and now seeing no speed camera icons. I used the 1.6 mapsettings.cfg file, I'm suspecting this isn't compatible with 1.7?

Edit: Forget that, I'd forgotten to copy over the ov2 files... now getting the red square icons. Will do the bmp to png conversion process.

The answer is a few posts further up this thread, you need to use 24 Bit png files post the V1,7, to make it easy to find the start point in the thread click Here and read down for the answer - Mike

The problem was that I'd forgotten to copy the ov2 files, so as far as TT was concerned the POIs didn't even exist.

Got the icons working but now have no audible warnings.
My original mapsettings.Cfg file is still there as my favourites have been kept.
This file gave me audible alerts on v 1.6.
Do I need to use a new mapsettings.Cfg file and loose all my favourites?

I thought I had fixed the red icon issue but haven't.
Could anyone kindly send me the converted icons that work on version 1.7.
I appear to have two icons for each camera, a working one and a red square obscuring 90% of it. Sad

It sounds like you have two sets of icons loaded, one being correct the incorrect, remove any pocketgpsworld.........png file from your map folder and start again but only load the true 24 bit png files this time - Mike

Thanks Mike. Will try tonight.
Do you know where I can get the true 24 png files from?
Also no sound warnings now. Do I need to load a new mapsettings.cfg file?

I have the intension of rewriting the first post in the thread, but I think it might be better to start with a fresh new thread covering the revised instructions with new downloads etc, eitherway its not going to happen until this evening as I am off to work for the day - Mike

Ash_P. Did you have to load a new mapsettings.cfg file to get the audible alerts working?
