Hi,
I know there is a thread about Navigation software but it is quite dated now.
As Garmin Mobile XT is discontinued does any know some good current software?
Also can you get 2010 (UK) maps for Garmin Mobile XT.
Thanks
Jason
Hy!
I think Sygic is the best Navi-Soft for Rose.....
Garmin is "Old" and not up to date......

I have been looking through the forum to determine the best combination of receiver + software as a gps solution. Is there a poll outlining the relative merits / demerits for the xda2s?
From reading threads, i feel alot of people use TT5 with a BT338 receiver. Would this be a reasonable solution?
Kind regards
I have BT-338. It work just fine with my tek 9090.
I use the BT-338 with CoPilot Live 5 and it works great on my SX66.
CoPilot Live 6 is too buggy, IMO.
I have not tried Tom Tom 5. But I could not install iGuidance 2.1.2 (I gave up after 3 attempts), TeleType World Navigator has huge breadth but not much depth in its features, and OnCourse Navigator 5 has user interface design problems, poor rerouting (it gets stuck on one path), and it requires manually starting the bluetooth connection each time.
Note: These recommendations might only apply in the USA.
tt5 & bt 77
Hi, my xda2s worked fine with TT5 and a BT77 bluetooth GPS, although the device configuration arrangement was a bit strange. However, that was on wm2003. I can't get any GSM functionality on wm2005 so can't comment on satnav and gps combinations with wm2005.
You will need to check with Tom Tom what support there is currently for Ireland. On the release of TTN5 there was limited support for the North & NO support for Eire. The latest downloadable maps suggest "major roads" of Eire are now supported but these maps are an additional purchase over & above TTN5.
I think i am the only BA user here with one, but i like my SD-501 (SDIO) GPS. its a great little unit, and gets great reception (not to mention better battery life compared to constant BT use!).
Still deciding on software though..
Will it work with this phone?
Don´t know it exactly, but i think, the memory and the cpu will be to low for running TomTom 6. There aren´t any specs for the requirements, but the compatibility list just starts with the BlueAngel / Magician.
Stefan
well, tomtom navigator 5 is running smoothly - indeed faster than the tomtom go devices !
You may overclock your wizard during running tomtom. And i assume that tomtom 6 will have similar requirements and should run smooth either.
But he has the oldest device (Wallaby). Don´t now how much RAM will be required for running correctly. If it´s just a 32 MB Version it could be hard to handle.
But why doesn´t you stay at the TomTom 5 you already have?
Stefan
Just wait and buy legal copy WHEN IT IS ON SALE of TomTom Navigator 6 guys... It is not that expensive buy... just leave one weekend without drinks and you have it
thanks

Legal aspect are all time welcome, but that doesn´t answer his question. If the software will not work with his device, he will have more from the money when he stays a weekend with drinks. ;-)

I just upgraded my rom version to version 4.20.0 (build 13252) because tomtom 6 would not run.
At this time a message appears with
YOUR DEVICE IS NOT COMPATIBLE with this version of Tomtom.
I guess the wallaby with 32 Mb ram is the problem.
I just stick to navigator 5.21
Unless some1 has the solution to run tt6 on a wallaby

I am running it on a 64mb xda using wm2003se v 4.21.1088 if that helps at all?
Hi All
Does anyone have any info on whether/when iGo8 might be available for Android devices?
I currently use iGo on my WM6.1 Touch HD and having tried iGo, TomTom Nav7, and Copilot 7 I can say it beats TT and CP hands down but for the lack of Traffic support in the UK. iGo for Android is mentioned on their website but the links dry up without pointing to any commercial software.
Right now it seems that for comprehensive satnav on Android Copilot have it all their own way.
Try this link for iGo myway. I am using it currently
http://www.igomyway.com/android/en/
Hi
Thanks for the reply - I did hit that page but still no mention of commercially available software. However I did do some digging through the FAQs using Google Translate and found that IGo My way for Android is only currently available on the Samsung Galaxy Spica.
There is no mention of it being put on general release. I think that is exceptionally short sighted of Navngo as they are giving a free run to Copilot and Sygic, but then they also only do Traffic via free TMC too which doesn't help us smartphone users in the UK who can't get TMC on our smartphones and even if we could TMC here is encrypted/subscription only so only used by OEM car manufacturers and TomTom.
i am useing it on my HTC Hero GSM
Yup, using it on the HTC Dream, although it's rather laggy so I'm going to try Navigon for a while.
Um, so can anyone give a source for this app?
it is there
called MotoNav
HI
i have igo my way (8.4.2) on my HTC Desire and i don't have POI's for france!?!? if anyone have them, please give me PM.
thanks!
Hi
Was also looking for iGo8 for my Galaxy i9000 S. Strange I can't find it. What's Sygic like? Any advice on a Android GPS. I find the Gmaps a bit too loosely put together and frustrating at times.
Thanks
i Used iGo on x10 mini pro and i think it's the best. sygic is slow, copilot not so precise
Igo stopped supporting android MotoNav is for devices with clscreens with higher res and my way is for lower. I can upload my way(lastest version) but later.
Sent from my IDEOS S7 Slim using XDA App

Sziasztok! LG G4 re kéne nekem igo8 tud valaki segiteni? Megköszönném!
Hi everyone, I spent lot of time trying to find a good GPS software that has a world wide coverage or as in my case do I look for some software that has China mainland coverage.
I been trying the (Sygic) Aura (which worked great on Xperia x10 mini but lack the China mainland coverage), CoPilot (also good, but also lack the China map) on my old Symbian phone, did I have Garmin XT mobile with both European map and China mainland. But for my Xperia x10 mini, does it seem impossible to find a working GPS software that has china mainland maps.
Update 14th november
I have now also tried iGO but found no China map.
Tried Navigon also lack China map.
Im now trying Route66 version 10.1.39745.39738 and I found a China map from 2009 808mb, I will try it but the problem with Route 66 is that it needs subscription for the use of walking & driving. And I dont want to pay for a software I dont know is good or not on my Xperia x10 mini.
I found a chinese GPS software called Careland, but it seems to lack English menu.
So my search goes on....
Best regards
Bumbi
Theres an Igo that works well on my X10 mini pro
ANd i think there are china maps for that.

What version of Igo?
Am using IGot.
Working well
I looked at iGO but it seems it has no China mainland, only Taiwan and Hong Kong. And that has Sygic Aura also. So I will continue to search.
Best regards
Bumbi
I find Navigon works really well.. not sure if it has China Maps (I have Europe maps installed) but its completely offline uses no Data, and navigation works well even on the mini screen.
Thanks for the tips, and I tried Navigon also. But same problem there...it has no China mainland map Thanks for the tips anyway
Try Navit or Navdroyd. I'm using both!
I know you mean to navigate by car or whatever. But if somebody wants a good offline GPS app for offline maps to hiking, biking, etc. I recommend ORUXMAPS, it's simply the best.
So from where we cant download Navigon and Igo for Europe ??
If you dont need navigation, Mapdroid might be a good choise. Maps can be downloaded - Mapquality and details varies a lot (they are based on OSM), but there are worldwide maps available and they dont need much space since they are compiled as vector graphics.
Wow, now have I lots of GPS software to try I will get back if I find anyone that has world wide coverage and is fully working on Xperia x10 mini.
Hi, hope this is the right place -
I would like to upgrade the iGO app and maps on my two Joying units, one a 8" UL138N2 (Sofia 3GR) and the other 10" UM134N2 (Intel Atom), both running Android 6.0.1.
However, apparently the supplied Joying iGO software (9.6.29.468978 Dec16 4014) is not upgrade-able.
I am happy to buy the software and maps but before I do, I would like to know if anyone out there has upgraded, and how to do it.
