Mio C310x Hack Update

There's still a lot of activity on hacking the Mio C310x GPS. This inespensive little GPS has a MS operating system and it's accessible with some simple "keystrokes" and has some interesting capabilities once you get in there.

Thanks to reader "AppleTom", I found a Mio C310x fan website that distills a lot of information down to some very simple steps. This includes "unlocking" the Mio C310x so that you can access the operating system, adding a POI loader so that you can add customized POI's, and a decent little mount mod to help you get more out of the Mio.

Obviously read the disclaimers, this is way beyond the original intention of the Mio folks.

  • Other Places to get more information (in a less organized form) are at FatWallet and GPSPassion.

  • Read my original post on Hacks for the Mio C310x - including Canadian Map additions.

    Thanks AppleTom - ReadMore on Hacks for your Mio C310x.

    You are welcome Scott. I've garnered a lot of information from this site (GPSLodge) and I like the way Robin at http://www.hugginsnet.com/ilovemymio/ explains things.

    Two great sites, two great people - thanks to both of you!
