[Q] Garmin maps on Android - General Questions and Answers

HI
Is there an application for Android that can use and Route Garmin maps?

google map and maverick is better

not available in my area, also garmin maps are by far the best that have been made in my area.

any solution?

I'm much interested in using garmin maps in android too. Is there anyone who did it before?

There's the Garmin Navigator on Google Play (compatibility varies with device tough).

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

WiMo GPS software that has Japan maps?

Hi there,
Tomorrow I'll be traveling and I was wondering if there is any gps software available that has japanese maps. I always use tomtom but they dont have any japan maps and with google I couldnt find software that does. I'd really love to have some navigation when I go there as im crap at following directions.

Global Navigator 5.6 doesn't download maps in HD2

Hi! I installed Global Navigator 5.6 on my HD2 on stock WM6.5 ROM, and it doesn't download maps - it kust shows my current position on a low-res world map. Zooming in just increases the size of the pixels.
I used an earlier version before and I could download maps. It seems there were lots of complaints on the web that the maker pdafun.net does not answer support queries. I'm still waiting for their reply.
If maps could no longer be downloaded, I propose that we post the imagedata.da and tileinfo.da for pre-downloaded data for different cities for sharing?
i agree with you.. same problem with me for low quality of maps download.
but i found an alternative.. Now i use Garmin. it is best and much better than global navigator.
Try Garmin and use your city maps.. and m sure u'll never use global navigator back..

[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?

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.
