Hi!
I recently installed the Google Maps version 4.1.1 for Windows Mobile.
Everything works fine so far except the compass. The arrow always points to the north and doesn't move, no matter which direction I am facing.
Is this a known issue? Is it possible to make it work correctly anyhow?
Thank you to all people who are trying to solve this problem!

I'm trying to use the Navigon 5 with my Emtac Crux II Bluetooth GPS, but everytime I start it, all is ok, but after 2 or 5 minutes I lose the GPS signal, but the GPS is working ok.
Anyone know how to fix this?
I'm using WM2003SE.
In TomTom 5 all works fine.
Thanks
Sorry I post in english, but this is an international site and we must communicate in comon language.
Did you chek at www.navigon.com the compability to your gps receiver?
I'm waiting for my software to try this program and after try it I can send you a feed back.
For now I can post hear the FAQ about GPS, in Navigon site:
"Can I still use my old GPS Receiver with MN|5?
Yes, all GPS receivers offered by NAVIGON so far (including those with TMC) can be used with MN|5 as well as all other GPS receivers that are NMEA compatibel and transmit VTG and GGA signals. This is expected to be a standard with almost any receiver available and can be checked at the producer's website."
I know that your gps, like mine because are the same, use all those protocols, so you must see if you have a bluetooth problem or if the protocols are recognized by the software.

change the poi from the maps of tt3 and put it in the maps on the maps of tt5. it will fix the problem.
I already searched Navigon site for some answers and I got nothing, and yes my GPS is compatible, it's in the list.
I'm talking about Navigon 5, not TomTom 5.
I have different problem with Navigon|5 (maybe the same ? )
Here is my post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=23612&highlight=
Did you install version for PPC2002 or WM2003? I've read, that version for PPC2002 works more stable i faster.
Did you switch your GPS into correct mode ? GGA=1 and VTG=1 ?
I think, that your any my problem are the same because my Navigon5 works correct as long as it doesn't fix gps signal.
Where did you install navigon software (RAM or SD card) ?
Did you try to communicate with navigon's support ? I tried many times and didn't get any answer.
I'm really disappointed, how this software works.

I think that I found the sorce of my problem.
My problem is that i'm using a cracked version of Navigon 5, and for what I read the crack don't work well and after some time of use the connection with my GPS falls.
I hope I can find a working crack somewere.
I have a Toshiba TG01 touch phone with gps. I loaded mm successfully including maps. However after a variable amount of time from 10 seconds to 5 minutes the mm software automatically closes and the phone returns to its home page. It always finds a gps signal so it's not even that. I've tried changing power settings on the phone. Reloading the software but nothing seems to help. Please help anyone who's had a similar problem on any device. Thank you

I never used the Memory map, but Garmin Mobile XT and IGO 8 work perfectly on my TG01.
+1 garmin the best
high detail maps and acuracy
Errmm, this is Memory Map, not car navigation like Garmin or iGo.
All I can say is that MM on my TG01 has never closed down on its own. What version are you using?
Thank you for your replies. I have recently updated the mm to version 5.4.2 I hadn't loaded the previous one onto the tg01 so i dont know if that would make a difference. If I turn the satellite off by just altering the com port then mm stays on, could it be something to to do with the gps?
My version is 5.1.3 build 716, I haven't had a previous version loaded. I'm running it through GPS Gate as I need to use that for Tomtom anyway.
You could try using a different ROM and Radio stack.

Hello nueloc,
I have garmin xt but I can not get it to work. Would you be able to tell me installation instructions. Garmin will not recognise key. I have tomtom working but i wanted to try another sat nav as it seems garmin could be the preferred choice.
thanks,

Hi there gents.
I just bought a new razr d1 xt918.
And im having issues with the navigation apps while driving a car, such as google maps navigation, and waze app.
I've already did that tutorial using the phone tester to unlock the X axis for the compass. But mine 3 axis were moving okay already.
The issue that im having is that when im using such apps to navigate with the car moving around the gps system seems to take too long to lock or respond, or finnaly "load", so i've already moved from a position and the gps app screen is still far behind where i was before.
In a way that the navigation apps with routes and maps can only be used as a google maps for consulting a frame of a map. But you cannot use it for real time driving. im not having a real time movement in any car navigation app, because the gps does not respond soon enough.
With the phone tester app, i can go @Sensor status and there i see three boxes showing: Accelerometer / Proximity Sensor / Light Sensor.
All three boxes seems to be responding okay.
But when I hit the ! (exclamation point) on the top right of the screen i get this message:
Your phone doesn't have :
Compass
Magnetic field sensor
Temperature sensor
Gyroscope
Pressure Sensor
Humidity Sensor
Okay. i think i don't need things like humidity sensor.
But the other sensors like magnetic field, gyroscope, compass and the rest. Isn't those sensors needed to have a good enough hardware to perform a real time gps navigation inside an app ?
Are these RAZR's phone model missing some hardwares devices in the gps system?
Or is it the Jelly Bean 4.1.2 bugged in a way that cannot have these sensors working correclty.
Searching for answers i've already find a lot of complains about the gps issue, or compass issue wich in my case the axis were working fine.
But there are a lot of complains about it. Even because in the Gingerbread builds, older one, the navigations app could work pretty good.
Why the new phones cannot ?
And another this is that there are a lot of people complaing and sharing tutorials. but no official axplanation about it. not at all. Or from google, or motorola, or verizon, or nothing.
I saw that another guy have recieved a messahe from the support telling that his phone does not have the compass devices and point. stop trying to use it. haha.
I think that the support guys were oriented to tell the customer that he does not have a compass and force him to give up the problem.
Please. How i do to have a real time navigation with this phone ?

Hello,
I´m using a Sony Xperia ZL with Android 4.2.2 (Root / looked bootloader).
Since some weeks i have the following Problem (before it works correct):
The GPS coordinates are displayed correctly in Tools like "GPS Test" from the Market. So I think the GPS itselfe works correct. If I start Google Maps or other Apps that use the GPS signal, I get a complete different Location (China, Russia, Brasil or somewhere else on earth).
Hopefully someone can help me to solve the problem" Thank you in advance:
Regards

EDIT: Problem solved XPrivacy coused the problem!
Hi, just bought OPX and updated to 2.1.2
I use Google Sky Map but the position of the stars are not correct, even if i turn the phone.
i read there is the same problem on OP1, anyone has this problem and confirm is a compass/gyroscope/othersensor calibration problem? thanks
May be its a lollipop bug, but i cant say for sure!
Opx does showed wrong positions!
It shows the position incorrect, but while using photospher from google camera,all sensors work fine,
I have tried google sky map in 2 different devices running lollipop, and it didnt work well for them,
But when one of the device downgraded to kitkat, it worked perfectly!
