   Hi there!
   As I stated in the post, i’m not the original author, I’ve only modified it to suit my needs. There are configuration files within the folders, you can check them. They define the position, icon and shortcut to whatever application you want.
   If you want to develop another application different from this one, just use Visual Studio or any other IDE that supports building WinCE binaries.
   What exactly do you want to change, care to share?

   Best regards!

   Ok, I’ve managed it. I only changed the first icon. Instead of TomTom, it is now for Amigo. THank you once more

   Another problem with this menu: When I start it from Windows, it appears for part of the second, and then dissappears. Actually, it goes background. After that, when I close the file explorer, the menu appears on my screen (goes foreground). I’ve tried to put this menu on the Launch50 key under HKLM\Init. The menu is located on the SD card. When I turn the device on, nothing happens, the boot screen is on all the time, but the menu doesn’t start. I was thinking this could be because of menu is going background, but I don’t know how to solve it. Any ideas?

   The exact same thing happened here.
   I came to conclude that the only viable solution is to use a script after explorer.exe is launched. I still have to write the scripts, but I found a guy in a forum with a similar problem and using the script method he managed to solve it.

   I think the change will have to made in the .ini of the menu executable to force the menu on top.
   I tried running the menu from explorer and also by replacing explorer.exe in the registry and also changed a link-up from the welcome screen icon click to divert the call to run the menu.
   In all cases the menu disappears to the back.
   Unfortunately I can’t use commands like kill and if in a script as toolhelp.dll is not included in windows on my Blaupnkt…so I’m stuck

   Ok. There is a solution.
   In the script you need to add close (xxxx)
   xxxx is the window name that you launched the menu from.
   In my case this is the script for main_sys_exe.mscr

   Close(EagleMenuUI)
   Close(EagleMenuUI)
   Run(“\SDMMC Disk\Menu\SystemInformation.exe”)

   Note: You need to use close twice!

   What I did was as follows;
   I used the welcome or start screen to identify which icon launches which application.
   I then renamed that application slightly differently and used mortscript and named the launch application the same as what the original icon click was calling.
   I then wrote the script as you see above.
   There you go – It works well on Blaupunkt Lucca 3.5 Special edition.

   Don’t forget to change the registory back to default, i.e no longer calls explorer.exe.

   Cheers

    You have to user mortscript, google for it.

    I’ll see if I can do it today or tomorrow and post it here. Remember that this was Wiz’s work.

    Cheers!

    Thanks guys!
    I’ve made autostart procedure for custom menu on Lucca 3.3.
    Here is the procedure:
    - Download mortscript from here http://mort.sto-helit.de/downloads/mortscript/MortScript-4.2.zip
    Extract all files from (zip file)\bin\pna\ directory to (GPS)\My Flash Disk\ dir.
    - Rename DNMainUI.exe file to DNMainUI2.exe
    - Rename autorun.exe to DNMainUI.exe
    - create text file DNMainUI.mscr and write this in it:
    —————————————————-
    Close(EagleStart)
    Close(EagleStart)
    srcfile = “\SDMMC Disk\Menu\SystemInformation.exe”
    Run( srcfile )
    —————————————————-
    - And last thing return old value to registry HKLM\init\Launch50 = “\Windows\LuccaLanguage.exe”

    Device on boot will display old warning about safe driving AND when you press OK button it will display custom menu.

    Good luck

    Text file DNMainUI.mscr must be created in \My Flash Disk\ directory.

    In case that it is not obvious.

    Hi jpoa.
    Thanks for your Menu for Lucca GPS.
    It is useful but unfortunately is not complete.
    I manage to modified XTyler SD Moov300EU (Simple Unlock) to use on my Blaupunkt Travel Pilot Luca 3.5 B – 272×480

    [IMG]http://i31.tinypic.com/24y0jea.jpg[/IMG]

    Download : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=L7LYCEHU

    Reagards.

    Pleasa modify installlucca_35_B (MortRunner) like this :
    sleep 1000
    Run “\SDMMC Disk\Skin\StartUp.exe”
    Close(EagleMenuUI)
    Close(EagleMenuUI)
    This will give you more brightness .
    Enjoy.

    Hi all,

    I’ve installed on my Blaupunkt Travelpilot 100 Navigator the Tom Tom 7, that works perfectly, but I can’t run it automaticaly when I turn on the device, as the default navigator.
    What I want to do is that, when I click on Navigator on the Menu Navigator/Settings, Tom Tom Navigator 7 (file “Tom Tom Navigator.exe” of SD Card) is loaded instead of the Travelpilot (file “nav_app.exe.exe” in “Marina/BIN” directory of flash disk).

    In the “MARINA/BIN” directory of Flash Disk there are the following files:

    Info.txt
    main_sys_exe.exe
    nav_app_exe.exe
    navapp_dll.dll
    osal_pure_dll.dll
    view_app_exe.exe

    There isn’t the file DNMainUI or Settings.ini as Blaupunkt Lucca.

    What can I do to run Tom Tom automaticaly?

    Thanks

    Regards

    Hi

    I have applied the steps described by Slobodan posted in July 19, 2009 at 2:26 pm.

    When I press OK button ( warning about safe driving ) I receive the following error message :

    EMPTY VARIABLE NAME NOT ALLOWED

    Line 3 (\My Flash Disk\DNMAinUI.mscr):
    srcfile = “\SMMMC Disk\Menu\SystemInformation.exe”

    Does anybody has any idea what is wrong ?

    Thanks

    I would love to help, but my GPS unit just got stolen =(

    January 25, 2010 at 10:35 am

    But wait, shouldnt it be \SDMMC Disk\ instead of \SMMMC Disk\ ?
22. rafinator says:

    January 26, 2010 at 1:27 am

    I just mistyped it when I wrote the comment. My DNMainUI.mscr file really contains this :

    Close(EagleStart)
    Close(EagleStart)
    srcfile = “\SDMMC Disk\Menu\SystemInformation.exe”
    Run( srcfile )

    It seems that there is something wrong with line 3
23. rafinator says:

    I have found solution. The problem with line 3 was the following. Wrong quotation marks were used. Instead of this (”) the following must be used (“). Now it works well.
