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.

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

Sorry if I don't make any sense , this is my first post.
But I wanted to know if theres anyway I can use/enable the Google Wallet Application on my Sony Xperia S as it has NFC support which is required to use Google Wallet.
I read some fourms that there is a cracked version that will work if if you install CM 7. But I wanted to know if this is true or if they are any other methods because I really want to get this to work!
Any help or information would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

As I know, in this moment it is impossible to use Google Wallet in other phones then a few more supported by Google. Cracked versions could be installed on other devices, also XPS, but it dosen't work. In some cases (Samsung phones) you can install cracked version, but I would avoid this - it is your money security matter. I see, that lack of GW on other devices - is Google choice. Maybe they just testing this feature and we have to wait.
yeah, suck google, release the thingy to everyone, why the wait, it's been out for awhile now.
i tried a lots of methods to install it but no go any way. but mastercard is releasing its similar wallet app very soon in which you'll be able to register any credit/bank card, not just mastercards, and there you go, go to hell google, you lost
.
I really want GW for my SXS, too
I have the ATT Note unlocked and getting ready to go to the UAE for a few months for business. Will I still be able to use all the Google services there that I have here in the US.
Dubai is good to go for everything except google voice -- and that is just related to BlackBerry.
OK good...I'll be in Abu Dhabi, but want to make sure I can still use gmail and music. I know there was an issue with voice and features in gmail and they were going to block it. I don't care about voice though, I never use it anyway. Thanks for the info.
For sure google music is good to go.
Hi All,
When i was recently in the US i was given an HTC EVO VIEW. I have now taken it back with me to the UK but unsurprisingly my Google Play application is the US version. I am using the same Google Play account as i do on my Xperia Neo which is the UK version so the account isn't the problem.
I have factory reset the device in the UK and the 'Android Market' app that is preinstalled is still the US version (and so is the 'Google Play' app that it is updated into) which means that some apps are not available, some say they are not compatible due to location, and everything is in $$$ instead of £££.
I would greatly appreciate it if anybody knows of, or could work out, a solution. I am a bit of a novice at this so a bit more of an explanation may be needed than the avaerage person on these forums would require.
Thanks,
Matt

Hey xda memebers,
short question about google opinion rewards. As the app is normally not working in Europe, I wanted to ask if there is any possibility to get it working?
I tried myself to get it working by:
1. installing orbot and forced an us exit node
2. editing my google account so us is my home country
-> but still not available for my account :/
Please do not start a discussion about 'Why to do that!?', pleas only give your opinion about how this could be possible.. or if at least it is not.
Thanks at all

I installed that app on my nexus 7 using a proxy server. Got it installed even got the survey. I always ran hotspot shield, switched to U.S and completed the survey. I got rewarded but now its months no survey :crying:
As of today, now supporting Canada, United Kingdom, and Australia.
