Went on a 30 minute drive and it worked flawlessly. The telenav app is more like a garmin or tomtom type program... not look google navigation.
Things are much bigger on the screen and the thing just keeps talking and talking...
but i am liking it
Are the maps stored to your phone, or is it online like google maps?

Loving this app. I like google maps, but this seems a bit more repsponsive. I had Telenav loaded on my Streak, and Google Navigation loaded on my wife's streak, and side by side, Telenav out performed Google Navigation while heading to the same destination.
Great find! Thanks!
This might make it a little faster

Before Android version I had used the WinMo version of Google Maps. And usually when I used to search for adreses/buildings the search showed the complete postcode. Noticed on the android version I get only a partial postcode returned by the search. Like the first half or something.

There is a more details link in the details for each search result. It shows the complete address in the current Version 4.4 in the U.S.
Noticed that Google Maps and Navigation have both disappeared since I started using 3G. When I only had wifi I could download both apps. There is something with the location function of the SIM that prevents me from downloading these apps in Denmark. Maybe I'll remove SIM and try to find in market. Alternatively factory reset and get Navigation over wifi before putting SIM back in. Ok, Google... why??

Hi, I´m on DJ Steves 1.5.1 and I am not able to rotate the map with two fingers. Pinch to Zoom and viewing the map at an angle works, but rotating doesn´t.
A friend of mine has the desire and with that phone rotating works, so it´s not the application.
Ok, seems to be a problem with the streak.
Has somebody tried that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9870124&postcount=2163
I am at work right know so I can´t really play around with my phone too much.
I've tried the new maps and I'm having the same issue, no map rotation.

Its doesn't for me at least. Kinda messed up the pinch to zoom and tilt function even after i put back the original file,so i have to reflash 1.5.1, just be warning
BTW are you guys on Stephen's rom? Apparently one of the guy at MoDaCo forum report that everything work on his official rom.
So i was wondering it might have something to do with Stephen's rom
I am pretty sure this has something to do with the market fingerprint being that of a nexus one.
Also having problems with personalized voice search.
Basically I think we are getting some watered down versions of some of the latest google app updates.

At least in 1.4.6 "android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct" feature is not set in /etc/permissions. After it is set, rotate works properly in Maps 5.0. This has been discussed in Nexus One and Modaco Streak forums.

funny. I was unaware of the difference.
wonder why my stick figure comics page comes up from bing sometimes?
low stats and I never submitted it anywhere but google and Yahoo.
If you can get over the fact that it comes from Microsoft, the Bing app for Android is actually a pretty good app.
Here's a review of it: http://www.androidcentral.com/bings-android-app-redesigned-brings-bit-metro-it
I use the maps piece of it as I find the traffic overlays are more accurate than Google maps traffic.
The issue from the other thread (which unfortunately escalated into a shouting match) is that the latest version of the Bing app has something going on whereby the market thinks it is not compatible with 2.3 roms (I've tried both IHO and asop) and you cannot download bing if you are running one of these roms. If, however, you download Bing using a 2.2 rom and then restore it to a 2.3 using Titanium or another backup program, the program runs fine.
I don't have many more details than this. If you want to help debug and solve this probem, please post! If you are not interested, please let us work on this without snide comments about "why would you want to use bing?"
And please, do not post in the IHO thread. All Bing discussion should remain here.
Only bing I care about are cherries and Crosby.

Yahoo uses Bing's search results. If you submitted to Yahoo, it's also on Bing.
While it doesn't show up in the google market it does in fact show up in the Amazon app store. This seems to be either an m$ issue or a market issue. Not sure why everybody is so passionate about this as there appear to be multiple ways to install it all legit like.
Unfortunately, the version in the amazon app store is very old (version 1.02.530.20110404 which is from April.) The latest version in regular Android market is 2.0.546.20010811, released August 15)

As pointed out amazons app store as amazing as it is. It is lacking in updated apps. Partly because the approval process is a pain in the ass and partly because some devs stop messing with amazon because of the trouble to get updated apps pushed.
Another thing amazon app store doesnt check your phone to see if you can install the app all the time. Only if the dev has specifically done so upon uploading. I can download apps that will not work on my optimus from amazon and android market has it hidden from me.
There's noway that someone could just post the apk?
So i'm running IHO id have to flash like bumblebee or something? download bing, backup and then reflash iho??
Or just get it from Amazon
Sent from my LG-VM670 using xda premium
Ok but the one on amazon is an old version.
To me, the issue is not so much having someone post a copy of the apk (which is really a band-aid fix.) Rather, I'l like to harness the collective brain of this community to determine a root cause and see if we can find a fix or patch.
For example, is the issue caused by the market seeing O/S 2.3 and thinking it's not compatible?
Or, is it caused by the carrier ID code? (So, for example, can we use Market Enabler https://market.android.com/details?id=ch.racic.android.marketenabler&hl=en to work around the problem?)
What's wrong with Bing? its not like anyone uses it >.>
so i tried market enabler and i still wasn't able to see the bing app on the market. But i think that market enabler does not work with the latest version of the market. is anyone here on a 2.2 device? try to download bing please!
Somehow I accidentally deleted the Navigation (blue arrow) app that came with the phone.
I tried to find that very same app at the Play Store. No luck.
I go back to the Verizon Store and asked a rep how I can get that same app back on my phone.
He said I have to do a reset of the phone.
Can anyone tell me that I am overlooking something re: getting that app back without doing a reset?
Thanks

Actually it turns out that the recent update to Goggle Maps will eliminate the Navigation app altogether.
If you (like I did) want that (blue arrow) app back you will need to uninstall the new version of Goggle Maps.
Then it returns to the old format.

can any one get me the blue arrow that was the old nav apk that came with google maps i like the new maps but still want the old navi thing i had it in a backup on my hd but it failed and lost it
Has anyone else experienced a jerky google maps? I ask because my location dot on maps seems to only move every hundred feet while driving, opposed to being a fluid, continuous movement.

I ended up reverting back to an older version of Google Maps as well because I was experiencing similar bugs. I also missed having separate app icons for local, navigation, maps, etc... I went with Maps version 6.14.2, which I believe may have been the last version of that still had all the separate icons. It has been working well for me on my Note 2.
I also reverted my Gmail to an earlier version... I went with Gmail version 4.3.1, because I believe it was the last version available before Google updated Gmail to pre-sort all our email into the 5 different boxes... I just didn't like that.
When I was searching online for the previous versions, I came across a site named Android Drawer http://www.androiddrawer.com/
I thought you all might be interested in it because it has a huge repository of older apps of all kinds. Just search for the app you want and pick your favorite version.

Do you know a way to stop the older apps from showing up in the play store as needing to be updated? I have the hacked youtube that doesn't show up as needing an update, but my maps always does now. Not a big deal but it's nice to "update all" and not have maps update.

I'm not sure of a simple way to detach apps from the Play Store/Market. I thought Titanium Backup would easily let you do it, but it looks like it doesn't work anymore. I tested it out just a bit ago and it temporarily detached the app... but it linked back to the Market after a reboot.
User cthulu posted information in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50564811&highlight=detached#post50564811 , which talks about a fix. Credit should go to him if it helps you.
