Pocket Streets 2002 GPS 15sec Hack

TiGuy · 04-29-2002

Ok, Pocket Streets GPS updates every 15sec. THis SUCKS! Well this guy claims he changed it to 1 sec, 2 sec, and so on.

I tried the hack and could not find the hex value he says is there. I did find the value in MapPoint2002 and the hack does work. In MapPoint look for "98 3A 00 00 53 57 6A"

Ok so someone else try...

Years ago (back in the days of DOS) I'd have used debug, but things (and file sizes) have moved on since then.
Which tool did you use to (sorry) 'which tool WOULD you have used, IF you had made the change?'

I used HackMan V7 beta2. It can be downloaded from Downloads.com.

After you install the app just select open and select the Pocket Streets.exe, now do a search for the string in the previous post.

Actually, I think the hack was for Streets & Trips / MapPoint.. not Pocket Streets...

Before you jump you should look. Go to the link in this message and read the last posting. The guy says he found the hex value in PocketStreets for the MIPS proc..........

I have modified my MapPoint2002.exe but not PocketStreets.exe

So next time Actually do some research....

Nothing like raising an old post...

At any rate, I've searched my PocketStreets.exe and have been unable to find "983A". Now, I realize my iPaq3970 isn't a MIPS processor. So, the question is, has anyone implemented a hack on PocketStreets on other processors?
