[Q] whats is best navigation app ???? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all ... i have been trying several navigation apps ... i live in jordan middle east
most of the programs dont really help and others dont support my country
is there any good app i can use ?

I use Sygic for navigation, but you can also use Navigon. It's your decision.

I'll put my vote in for Sygic as well. It works well enough for me to justify the cost of the US maps package.
However, according to Sygic support, Jordan is not yet available in any Sygic map packages:
"Michal (Technical Support Specialist) 20 days ago
Hello majedasad,
It should be released sometime in the middle of this year"

Issue with S740 and IGO 8.3.2

Hi,
just got a new S740/Rose and installed Igo 8.3.2. Acutally, the software just works, only problem being that I can't use my joystick to navigate (buttons seem to be disabled) and since the S740 doesn't have a touchscreen, I'm stuck there. I suppose one can modify the keybind.txt file located within the data.zip (IGO8/DATA.ZIP - config/keybind.txt) file in the IGO8 folder.
Anyone has a working one ?
Or is it sys.txt that has to be modified ?
Thanks beforehand.
Cheers,
Al
Use Garmin XT version 5 instead !!
Works like a charm on the Rose !
There is a special Smartphone edition !!
So you can use the Joystick on the Phone..
Regards
Peter
Hi Peter,
thanks a lot, will try it out. Though what I liked about Igo is that we have all the maps of almost any places needed (which I don't know wheter it's the case for Garmin XT but will try it).
Cheers,
Al
really hope so expert can keybind it to the s740,
still prefer the igo program over garmin,
I use Sygic McGuider, also works very well on the S740.
- Fast and good navigation
- nice interface (intuitive)
The few user and expert reviews I've read, are also positive

I've downloaded Garmin Mobile XT 5.00.20w, the position is tracked OK I think, but I always get no more than 1 "signal bar" (gps reception). Also, GPS info shows at most 2 satellites locked and the sky chart only shows a sun icon and a moon icon.
Why?
hello.. i have to same problem.. i try meny versions of IGO.. please post here if somone make it work.. Garmin XP and Sygic McGuider work Fine.. and only that 2 one but igo have maps with nice look 3D
sorry form me eng.
AVE...
Has anyone informations about key binding in Rose? I would make proper configuration files if I knew how are the buttons mapped.
Guys, why don't you use fake cursors? They are kind of a pain in the arse, but if you want to stick to IGO, I think this is the best solution. Just google fake cursor.

GPS navigation on Legend..not ofr now??!

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone knows why I can't use google navigation (in Belgium)?
Also there seem to be no good gps softwares on the arket for legend.
I can't drive my car WATCHING google maps 'my location' without clear directions/spoken.
Any advise appreciated!
Another thing that is not possible is voice recognition, hos is it possible that HTC decided to block this on Legend? Unbelievable!
Thanks!
Navigon, Sygic, iGo... pretty good imo
try CoPilot.. it´s not free but close TomTom. maps are available for almost everywhere
I am using NDrive
I bought iGo and I must say, its pretty good, its fast, it fixes the position in seconds and I just love it
I was hoping that by the time Ill by my Legend, there will be tom tom for android, but theres not ... so
best one for me is the sygic, very similar to tomtom and very reliable.

Because Google didn't enable it yet for Belgium (it's only available in US & UK).
You could always install Brut's hacked Google Maps, which enables Google Nav for unsupported countries ;-)
sygic is the best!
Navigon
I have a very good experience with Navigon for Android.

Well, I did install a "workarounded" maps found somewher on this forum, and apart from the fact that it unexpectedly did a total makeover of my phone, it only is another way to find out that Google Maps is not supported in BeNeLux.
You can choose routing, only to get a message from google that maps is not (yet) supported for my region.
Presumably routing needs additional data from google or they found a way to block access again.
I guess the latter, as I tried to travel around in the US with the same result.
I had the exact same problems (also got belgium HTC Legend without voice recognation and navigation) BUT: you can get it working farly easy.
Here is a link to the google navigation BRUT mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630887
Brut.all made the google navigation work everywhere even in Belgium.
And since 18/05 it even has voice guidance.
For the Voice recognation (Voice Search) I've uploaded the one that works for me on megaupload: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AV5QM1CZ
If that doesn't work try searching google for voice search apk. I've tried at least 10 since I found one that wasn't giving me an error.
I'm using Navigon and I'm really happy with that..
copilot
I didnt think irealand was big enough to warrant a satnav (jus kidin) i am using copilot cracked iff anyone wants the apk file pm me i find it by far the best one around i have tried most.All you need is the apk once installed it dloads current maps automatically and also speed cameras.
iGo is great.
indulge: http://androidforums.com/htc-legend/85949-igo-my-way-navigation-android.html
I'm pretty sure I've already posted this, but I can't find it, so I'm posting again.
So I installed sygic, but it won't load any maps even though they are in the right directory "/Maps/xxx/xxx.pak".
I also tried "/maps/xxx/xxx.pak" and "/maps/xxx.pak", but ut doesn't work.
Anyone's got a solution for this ?
nobody ? __
when using the correct *.mlm file it should work *.mlm file is in maps folder...
you better could look here for more info and how to's

[Q] Sat Nav Applications for Indian Android Phones!?

Hey..
Since, Google Navigation doesn't work here in India, I was wondering if there's any Sat Nav app, for India, available to download in the Android Market.
I use LG Optimus One by the way!
anyone help, please??
Try Aura on Market.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
NDrive
Use NDrive which should be pre-installed, mine had it and works like charm...
Thanks guys for your reply!
@patil: I tried using NDrive but it would always hang, I don't know why!
I would definitely try Aura.
Google navigation in India
Does work. Get Maps (but)
Google navigation
Sorry. Should be Maps (brut) Go to options brut. Select international navigation.
I use Navitel with maps ported from Garmin in pakistan. Works like a charm. if you can find maps. i think navitel uses navteq maps which garmin also uses. and navteq also provides maps for india, so google for it. i'm sure you'll come up with something good.
God helps those who help themselves.
No spoon-feeding on XDA-Developers
Satnav for India
Please use "WAZE" . it is using the Satnav maps in background. It is very good. It works without any issue.
Questions or Problems Should Not Be Posted in the Development Forum
Please Post in the Correct Forums
Moving to Q&A
I use brut.all google maps non rooted version and it works great here in India .
Would like to try out Waze but I guess the real time traffic updates are limited to metros where more people share traffic updates.
Still a good concept though !!

[Q] Waze or Google Maps?

Hi
I will be traveling to MA next week and I would like to know which app is better for navigation in MA and in the US in general.
Don't forget i'm a tourist so I would prefer using the most accurate app.
Thanks !
Alon.
I've always been a Google Maps guy. But you can try both. I've also heard good things about Scout. I think Google Maps works great in Mass.
