After seeing people ask for a decent voice guided navigation app, I pulled the Telenav APK from my backups to share. It was posted waaay back in the early Captivate days. It's a free and legit version for basic functionality, which is plenty for navigation. It works the same as the AT&T Navigator app included in the stock phone from AT&T, but this one doesn't want to charge you $10 just for trying out the free stuff. You can upgrade to additional features for $10/month through Telenav, but there really is no need. It works just fine in basic mode.
Enjoy - slap the thanks button if this helps
Thanks for the app. I'm going to give it a try tomorrow....
google
Is it better than google navigator?
Depends on what u consider better. Better graphics and voice. Same performance. Heavier use of battery though.

I use WAZE, and seem to be ranked as 195 in the state. BUT, I tired the navigation, it works ok, but too many loops.
I would be going down a street and all for no reason it says go in this subdivision and loop around and come back out. - of course I was smart enough to see that trick.
Still goona use WAZE because of the other users posting where the cops are hiding.
You need to be rooted to use this right?

Thanks for this! I had a question. Has anybody tried to 'trick' Market so we are able to download this:
https://market.android.com/details?...sImNvbS50ZWxlbmF2LmFwcC5hbmRyb2lkLnNwcmludCJd
This is V7.1.1 (different from the one they call TeleNav GPS Navigator for TMO) and is available to Sprint users. This version has some 'nice' Widgets (equivalent to that of AT&T Telenav) that V6.2.6201121 doesn't have.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMiCL6hV85Q
I am wondering if this will still work on the AT&T network...and, we wouldn't have to pay a ridiculous monthly fee?
Any thoughts?

That's weird, are you rooted? I haven't rooted my note yet. Try erasing your data that was created within the app, by going to applications, manage apps and click on telenav as if you were going to uninstall and click clear data and try opening again.

I am getting the same behavior as btothec as well. I am wondering how you were able to download in the first place godfirst? Normally, we (AT&T users) can't see this app in the AppStore as it is blocked...I found it via the Market.Android.Com site.
And, if you haven't rooted yet, you must have both AT&T Navigator AND Telenav installed at the same time (ex. AT&T Navigator exists on system/app folder)? Are you sure you aren't subscribed to the service (now)?

No Im not subscribed. I cannot find the app due to it being blocked but because of the link to it that was posted earlier I was able to download. Now the number I have from att was ported over from when I had sprint, and my data is still stored with my number from when I had the free service with sprint. I even have the ability to look at my recent destinations which was taken when I was with sprint last summer.

One of the roms I had on my Captivate had the Telenav GPS Navigator app included. Is there a way to install this app without flashing a new rom? I have rooted my AT&T SGS2 with the original rom.
(here) is the APK for the free telenav that was posted a while back.
Thanks nyydynasty, that's the one.
no problem

no, the free version gives you spoken turn-by-turn directions and you can sync it with your telenav account online (ie. favorite address, etc...) but you lose the traffic updates and some other extra features unless you sign up for the $10/month fee.
Thanks Dynasty and Peaster for the info and for the .apk!
no prob. I use the free telenav and its flawless on the SGS2
after installing when telenav loads it asks for 10 digit phone number and after i put my phone number it doesn't go forward. unbale to by pass the phone number prompt- am i missing something ? i am not stock rom.
no, thats all you need to do to set it up. Try reinstalling it, maybe?
What does free Telenav offer that GMaps Navigation doesn't?

GMaps doesn't work very well for me in offline mode. Don't want international data roaming charges or use up all the data on a prepaid sim in the first few seconds.
The Google Play store is apparently letting me download Google Wallet. It runs but says it hasn't been verified with my carrier and phone plus needs an os upgrade.
Signs of ICS soon?
Btw, i couldn't do this the other day.
That's odd. It says it's incompatible with HTC Amaze. It refuses to allow me to download it.

Well guess what guys I've been thinking, if google wallet was only intended for the nexus s or other related phones, may be we can trick the phones registry to make it think it is a nexus s, ummmm!!!!!
Interesting that it let you install it. Google play store says it's not compatible with mine though. One day...one day.

That might fix the first error (not certified with my phone and/or carrier) but it won't with the next. (O.S. Upgrade required.) I''m fairly certain it wants ics.

It's not that it won't play stock, it's because it is being phased out by Adobe. They canned it from the Market sometime in August and will no longer be making regular updates to it, in order to progress movement over to HTML5 content.

Actually, Adobe and Samsung made an agreement to keep Flash updated for the Galaxy S3, which also means for the Galaxy Note 2 as well since they have almost identical hardware/software. Flash was just updated again a couple weeks ago to .34. I've been using .29 on my devices.
And even though the latest Flash versions are only for the S3, they will work on most any device running Jellybean.
The following thread is keeping updated with the latest versions of Flash, along with text and video tutorials on how to install:

EDIT: I guess there was a lag on the tmobile website, they did deduct minutes from me. Sorry for posting wrong information! I can confirm google voice working on this plan.

Are you sure it didn't use any minutes? I was running the stock ROM since it was pulled from the T-Mobile version and posted in the T-Mobile Note section (I posted a CWM zip of the ROM without some of the bloat) and I didn't notice that wifi calling usage didn't count against my minutes. AFAIK, wifi calling isn't free on their prepaid plans, and native call forwarding to Google Voicemail isn't either? Of course I never did figure out how to see a call log on T-Mobile's account site so I'm never sure how they are actually billing my 100 minutes a month and I might have missed something. It would be awesome if it didn't actually count!

yep WI FI calling works perfectly but as stated in Tmobile website it uses the minutes available in your plan, so not really free minutes (at least on the $30 100 mins unlimited web and text plan)
