Good GPS Program - HTC Vox

I'm Look for a Program for use my bluetoth gps
can you help me?
sorry for my english

I recommend Garmin Mobile XT. It works perfect with Vox. Also maps are very detailed.

I also recommend Garmin Mobile XT.
Use it with Mapsource and you can store different kinds of maps like road navigation, on the sea and topo maps. Google it and you will find ;-))

I have had problems trying to run and install Garmin XP on my S710. Dont know what I have to do, Perhaps using wrong maps etc

I've tried various gps applications, Tom Tom 6 and Destinator 7 both ok, prefered Destinator 7 but both applications required a virtual mouse.
I had bought SPHelper which was fine although a little slow and fiddly scrolling around entering zip codes etc.
Garmin mobile XT was a bit slow and I didn't like maps.
The one that I find works a charm for me is Sygic McGuider. Easy to use, nice interface and it's a great price too. It also works on both platforms, WM6.1 and Symbian.

Highly recommended.

I use route 66
works fine without pointer. just keyboard input.
fast, no troubles

I use nav4all. It's free and works perfect for me.

Best GPS App & Device

Hi Guys
I wanted to know what GPS app is the best (and easist to install)?
and which GPS device/reciver is the most compatible?
Regards
Kim
Hi,
I use Route 66 with France's maps. The soft is fast, easy, we could modify pois, but maps are old (2005).
I have tested TomTom, V6, for pda. The soft is good, but hard to use with fakecursor.
Bye.
And excuse my poor english.
For route planning I use Tom Tom Mobile 5.2 with the Tom Tom MKII blue tooth receiver - only because I already had it when I got a WM 2003 phone a couple of years ago, but it works fine with my HTC S710.
For other general GPS stuff I use the freeware program GPS VP - downloaded from http://gpsvp.garminmapsearch.com/ or Google Maps
The Tom Tom receiver is a bit slow in getting a fix, but it can be used with the Navizon Virtual GPS which combines Phone GSM and WiFi triangulation with the GPS signal - so you always get a fix - even indoors!! plus they pay you for collecting the WiFi and phone position data - download from http://my.navizon.com/Webapps/UserAdmin/register.aspx?referral_code=5D575C5D5C5C

Hi guys
thanks for the help..
what about tomtom v6 - will it work?
Tomtom v6 works, look here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335963
It's not easy to use Tomtom v6 on Vox, it's developped for pda, not for smartphone, and we have to use FakeCursor (cursor on screen, like a touch screen) to use tomtom on Vox.
Bye.
And sorry for my poor english.

Best car navigation solution for Raphael?

Hi there,
I am looking for a good car navigation solution for Raphael (for travelling in Europe). After reading infos about TT which seems to work at least with the latest releases and Navigon (for which I am not that sure ...), I now read about Tele Atlas McGuider which also seems to be quite good and even less expensive, but it seems to lack TMC or other traffic assistance support which is crucial for me (radio broadcasted or via internet, I do not mind, but it is a must).
I know that there are some other solutions out there. I wonder if you guys have experiences to share, also w/regard to VGA screen resolution and so on.
Thanks!

I like the CoPilot Live, works very well and has a nice look and feel.
Co Pilot live is ok, but the traffic part of it is rubbish compared with tomtom. There is no visual display of traffic incidents ahead on the map, only a description that pops up with incident details which you either avoid or ignore. You can set it to automatically reroute, but you dont know whats going on. In my opinion, tomtom is currently the best.
I also found co-pilot slow to scroll around the map, but there again i dont have a fast mem card. Unfortunately there si no trial version available. make sure you get the version specific for the HTC diamond (also compatible with Touch Pro). It can be purchased online (from handango) cheaper than most retail stores.
Thx to both of you! I still would like to compare TomTom with McGuider ...
Eriol
McGuider
Hello,
I am using last version McGuider (7.x I think) and it work fine, but map and icons are too small, I and don't know if it can be repair.
Please if some one use thist program please write down here about how work.
Bye
Garmin XT is the best imo. TT cannot hold a candle to Garmin.
iGO 8
I think iGO 8 is the best solution for Raphael
Navigon
I really like Navigon !
Search Youtube for Navigon 7 !!

Hi Jochen,
I have a stand alone PNA running Navigon 6.5, and I like it, too. But my experience with Navigon, especially running on my HTC Wizard (MN 6.x), is that the route calculation is rather slow and the whole app is not that fast on a PDA. This might be different on a Raphael due to processor speed, though. We also will use an Xperia X1 here: Is it possible to run MN7 on 800x480 screens?
Eriol
i maybe wrong, but some navigation programs will only run when the supplied memory card is installed. Installing the maps to another card will not work which therefore means you have to swap cards when using the software. Check before you buy!!!

Navigon is nice-- but once you're in the tunnel and lose signal it would say you've reach your destination I also don't like its route calculation-- it's giving me a longer route than tomtom
To my mind ist the default navigation (TomTom 7.451) the best. it uses vga, is fast, new maps

In Copilot7 there is indeed visual display of incidents ahead on the map, you also can get to incident-specific info in just three taps, reporting delay and other usefull info........
No need for automatic rerouting, you can let Copilot ask you what you want to do, after you have read the incident-info and delay time.....
No need for the diamond-version either, regular version runs great on my Touchpro....
See.......................you we're allmost right.....
Someone tried Navigon Mobile Navigator 7 for PDA on Raphael?
Is it compatible and full working?
Before then I buy, I asked to the support team, but no clear response about it.
Thanks.
NAVIGON Mobile Navigator 7 can work fine on Raphael, with this simple workaround.
You need a GPS port replicator (like Franson GPSgate) to solve the GPS signal stability problem on MN7.
I hope this can help who love this product family.

What is the best GPS Navigation software for polaris?

Title says all.
I've only experienced TomTom 6 and now i'm using v7. I find it quite slow to be honest. I expected more from it. I'm using UDK R7 and my device is quite fast. But TomTom 7 disapoints me a bit.
Has any1 tried another application that runs faster and does a nice job?
Hi there,
I currently use iGo, it's really faster and more efficient than tomtom !

I must agree!
I'm very pleased with iGo!
That depends on which part of world you live in and whether all the required maps are available .. !
Agreed with previous poster.
But, if you live in Europe, specially Eastern Europe, iGO is the best.
iGo iGo iGo..... By far. the only delay I've ever experienced is on load with iGo is geo-caching the addresses - UK based.
Seems i buck the trend and use TomTom7 - i have igo8 on it as back up but find its not as good for finding address with postcodes.
I prefer the UI in igo8 but i prefer the use in TT7
Mobile Navigon 7 (PDA version) could also be a good choice; I use it for over 6 month by now (with my X7500) and is really good. I also have the iGo 8 (full Europe ... cracked ) and TT 6 (full Europe licensed); from all, I prefer Navigon 7 (also full Europe and licensed).
Cheers.
ok, i will try some of there and see, im werry tierd of tomtom...
i like tomtom but im using Ndrive v3 and is very fast and very complete here in portugal... but i like to try igo for a few days with europe map...
Hi,
This is probably a silly question but will iGo read TomTom maps? I've got TomTom 6 but judging from the praise for iGo on this thread it looks worth a go but I'm concerned about having to buy a new Western Europe map.
Ta
Hmmm... not sure the maps are the same format...
Actually, I believe they are not. iGO format is *.fbl, but there are also buildings, POIs, speedcams...
When you buy iGO, you also state for what area. My iGO came with maps for 26 Central/East European countries...
There are several packages, so choose wisely.
I've TomTom7 and Igo8 R3 on my Poalris.
But the favorite is IGO8 Igo is faster and the skins are great.
Leo
Mobile Navigator 7 is my favorite. fast...very nice skin... nice features and the most important thing: its stable
Garmin Mobile XT works fine
Remarkable that none has picked Garmin Mobile XT as the best so far. I use it with great pleasure both in the car with Europe NT9 and onboard the boat with the BlueChart Maps.

I just had a look on the Garmin site - it is not clear whether you can buy the nav software for the PPC, or do you have to get the nav hardware?
i was going to try iGo but the maps are old and there's nothing worse than being steered into a brick wall.
Garmin
Garmin Mobile XT, then add the maps you need
It is nearly the same GUI and software you find in the Garmin devices, with additional features related to connectivity
I just installed iGO8 but it says "GPS receiver not found".
I'm using Syrius UDK R7, and i also have TomTom7 installed and it works fine (laggy but fine).
Does any1 know whats going on?

Try sygic or route 66 mobile 8.
Sygic is fast and is very easy to work with this program.
Route 66 have the best maps and precision when you make long "drivers".
_____________________________
Tenta por o sygic ou o route 66. Se for para usar em Portugal, usa o Ndrive 3 (que tem o nucleo do iGO mas adaptado por nos "tugas")

Best Navigator for fuze?

Whats the best navigator to use on the fuze? i cant seem to get tomtom installed so im looking for other options
I am a fan of Navngo Igo8. I also use Ndrive but prefer Igo8. It works perfect on the fuze. Ndrive is cool if you could get the 3d maps which are only available for certain cities in europe.
i tend to push garmin mobile xt. its very accurate and has the most pretty and user friendly interface. the software is technically free but it has to be unlocked to use a non garmin branded gps and the maps can be a little on the expensive side. and installation is weird. but its my favorite. i do use google maps alot though. just because its a little quicker to break out than any proper navigation software. garmin does have google built in which is a nice feature for looking up anything from flight times to looking up gas prices in your area. itll even route you to the cheapest gas station in your area which is my favorite feature. i couldnt get tomtom to work properly and it felt half finished. its up to you really.
i wanted to give TomTom a go but the only negative thing i heard about it was its better in other countries
The TeleAtlas maps that TomTom uses do tend to be better in other countries. Navteq tends to have the most complete maps in the US, which is what Garmin uses.
You can get either type of map for iGo.
I also prefer Garmin, with iGo as my second favorite. The only reason I don't use iGo is because I don't like its routing when compared to Garmin.
iGo is pretty solid, I like it over TomTom and Garmin

[Q] looking for a good navigation software

Hi group,
my good old navi device died today and i would like a software solution for my good old Leo.
I had a Route 66, which crashed every two minutes. Anyhow it showed extremely bad maps with almost no useful information.
I am looking for something working well on the LEO.
I don't care for 3D views, what i need is good 2D with as many roads names as possible.
Who could give me an info about a good navi software?
RIN67630
navigon is working very fast, tomtom also.
Garmin a little bit slower and igo harder to configure.
For me, the best is Tomtom Navigator 7
NDrive, IGO and Sygic
For Me:
1- NDrive --> Best for everything
2- IGO --> Quick.
3- Sygic --> Clear, Fast and not complicated
TomTom 7.918 , works well for me on HD2, easy to have & switch many maps, one of the few to have selection of european & asian maps I need.

I've got to see iGO8
The current street numbers left and right are super!
Found it nice, but it could display better the street names, which do not bend around the curves and frequently do not display at all, for no apparent reason.
Which one is better? I do need very good 2d maps.
Thanks

here you go
I suggest "Mapfactor Navigator FREE" from here: http://navigatorfree.mapfactor.com/de/
It is absolutely free - both software and maps (worldwide!!), because the maps are OpenStreetMap-data (OSM) as actual as the maps will generated by OSM.
It works even fast as TomTom and has a 3D-View ...
For me, the best navigation software is iGO Primo 2.0.
And with the skin Sbertaud13, it is perfect
For me the best navigation app is Ndrive.
Works like a charm with HD2.
hi,i know everything about igo 8 if you need something.... i think that igo is the best
You could put Google Maps on your HD2 which is free for navigation.
Maps get downloaded as you go so are always up to date.
iran maps don't has for Tom Tom or igo
hi guys
Tom Tom and igo very good software navigation but all world map don't has for example Iran map i can't find for igo and Tom Tom .
and this is very bad
i normally uses google map and sygic from time to time, but sygic always expires and want user to buy it, so i just stick with google maps.
