Hello all
I have a slight problem i had co-pilot installed nicely then my memory card decided to wipe itself and now have lost the maps, since the co-pilot program wont reinstall them would it be possible for soemone to upload the UK and Ireland maps for me to download and get them again. Or if this is not possible to point me in the direction of getting them again.
Cheers for the help

The version of tomtom preinstalled on the Touch Cruise allows only the use of a city map that you can unload free.
The maps that you had before don't work. You must buy her.

Thats not true. The pre-installed version of TT works just fine with all maps.
It has no problem at all with Western Europe & Benelux maps.

Well not quite. On my Touch Cruise, I downloaded a free map of Athens Greece, and it was fine. I then bought the full US-Cnada package, and TomTom does not see them on the phone? TT has not responded yet? The maps show as in place on TomTomHome, but I cannot navigate the program to the maps through the TT preferrences?
The Tom tom I've got is not a preinstalled version.
I've tryed restarting with no luck.

Just a wild guess, but have you transferred it from TomTom Home to the phone? as far as i know, it won't do it automatically, you have to push the transfer button (not sure what it's called, and can't check since my phone is in for service)
I downloaded and installed Google Maps Mobile, but can't find it on my phone (not in Programs and can't find the file using Google Search). I read on another forum that there is a cab for easy installation.
Can someone help me get it up and running?
Thanks in advance.
http://www.google.com/mobile/default/maps.html
type in your number and it will send you the link to download the cab
Already did Google Maps Mobile install process
Thanks for the quick reply, Joel. I already had the link sent to my Fuze. I clicked install and it seemed to go through the installation process.
But I can't find the program anywhere in my phone. Am I missing where to look for it?
Please advise.
when you clicked the link did you rn the cab after it downloaded or did you just click the link and download the file
next step
I didn't run the cab because I couldn't find where it was downloaded to?
Can you help me find it?
Thanks.
try looking though your my document files to begin with, do you have a storage card
Not there
I looked in My Docs and nothing. Cabs usually install into Windows, but nothing there.
I tried Google Desktop search and XP search in my Mobile Device while synced to my PC and gmaps didn't show up.
I read about amazegps. Any thoughts on alternatives to Google?
you might try tomtom for turn by turn directions, but your phone has to support what phone do you have.
another way to find your google maps is to download it again and select where to save it so that you can find it
Thanks for the assist
I appreciate your taking the time.
I'll try downloading again, but not sure there is that option on my Fuze. I'll explore other GPS options.
On a last note, I have a 5 MB limit on Internet use. Does GPS eat up a lot of data?
Thanks again. Over and out.
Gps does not use data, however google maps streams the maps to your phone though your internet connection when you use it and only uses gps for your location.
On tomtom however the maps are local on your phone, and is free of internet restraint
try here..... it is in the kaiser/tilt section but it should work on your phone, you get to download one free map.

no, google streams its map data, you can't download their maps to allow you "offline" use
Hello everybody,
I've got a problem with installing maps on the xda Orbit 2 device.
I have a default UK and Ireland maps on it, but I'm from Balkan and want to using Balkan maps or Central European maps.
I tried to intstall maps like most users suggest by posting the link (in pdf). But I didn't succeed with it.
So please help me, how to install other map region on the device.
Thanks
Luke
Does anyone know how to do that?
you get a copilot central disk with the orbit 2. you need to purchase the map via this app.
Have you purchased the maps you want?
I dont beleive this has been mentioned here... Apologies if it has! *mods please delete if duplicate*
A free UK sat nav alternative to Google Maps Navigation.
(Android 2.2 +) Download and install maps after the software installation via the NavFree store (Map also free). Then no need for a data connection to navigate the maps.
might be useful when out in the wilds!
I picked it up via expansys - just google 'NavFree expansys'
APK is 65Mb so free space needed! Due to the size I can't attach.
Cheers

I've downloaded and installed this, thanks. Unfortunately, when I try to run it, I just get a black screen for a few seconds then I'm back to my home screen. Has anyone else had the same problem? I've not downloaded any maps yet (waiting for a wifi connection!), but I doubt if that's the problem.
Edit:
I've since found THIS discussion. It seems this doesn't work with Gingerbread at the moment, but they're working on it.
Hello XDA!
So here's the situation:
I used to have the Navigon app on my phone for navigation purposes and it was great, but then end of 2020 they (Navigon/Garmin) pulled the plug on the map/update/authorization servers. Even for users who paid for the product! I found this out the hard way when I reinstalled Navigon and it wanted to authorize the app for use (and couldn't find the servers)...
So since then I've been looking for another GPS app to take its place (OR a patched version of Navigon with the latest map set before they shut everything down that I could still continue to use the app)... It ticks me off that I won't be able to use it anymore. Oh well I guess it was worth the money for the years of use I got out of it....
I found Sygic GPS which seemed to be a competent package. The app installs fine from the Google Play Store, BUT it says something along the lines of "Something went wrong, restart the app" - it seems it can't reach the servers or something. I have tried sideloading the app as well and it still throws the same error. does anyone here know what is up with that?
Yes I also contacted the company that makes Sygic but they couldn't tell me anything useful either.
I can't spend money on an app that doesn't want to work.
So as it stands right now I don't really have a good usable GPS app for when I need it (no I don't like Google Maps)
Any help would be appreciated.
Looks to me the error is caused due to data storage and cache issues on your Android device.

Thank you for the suggestion, it's much appreciated.
However, I've tried installing it on my tablet as well and it throws the same error (both Google Play Store version and sideloaded version) the tablet is also Android 6.0.
I have given the app "all permissions" possible to allow it to use storage etc. but it hasn't worked....
I've Sygic GPS Navigation in use on my Huawei 7 ( 2019 ) running Android 8.1 ( EMUI ): It installed and runs perfectly.
Okay so, no one knows what may be causing this issue for me that I cannot run Sygic without it failing on Android 6.0.1? I have tried enabling Places services (GPS) in the phone settings and giving all permissions to the app, but it still fails to get to the point where you get to choose internal or external storage for the data (maps).
I know I can "just" put in the latest LineageOS and everything would be just fine (Sygic runs fine on an S5 with LineageOS 18.1) but it would be a lot of work to get that done backing up and transferring data and stuff, so IF there is a way to get the phone to behave with Sygic it would be very nice....
Any help is appreciated!
