Dear Windows phone users, what is the best free Mapdroyd-like alternative available for windows phone 7.5 ?? Basically i need a free app that provides offline maps and a tracking feature exactly like mapdroyd for androyd.....
Jawad
Anyone ?...........
I'm using Nokia Drive, which has offline map, but no tracking. There is also Navigon but for some reason I wasn't able to install that on my phone. Both are navigation apps, no tracking.

Hi,
Is there some way I can use the Garmin Mobile XT with internal GPS of HTC Touch Pro... other than purchasing the Card from Garmin .
Thanks
Yes you can use Garmin XT with the internal GPS. You can download XT free from Garmin's website. However you will need to buy maps separately. The maps are provided on SD cards, but there are guides that show you how you can move the maps to your microSD card (and the necessary settings to get it set up).
If you are asking about how to use XT without purchasing, then it is possible, but you're on your own (see forum rules).
well,
actually the place i live is not part of the developed world so they dont have maps available. Some locals have however, developed crude maps compatible with garmin mobile xt though.
however, for using the garmin mobile xt without purchasing, i needed info.
and u r refering me to the forum rules ... why ... it aint allowed ?????
If you're talking about user-made maps you should be able to just put them in the appropriate Garmin folder on your device, but I have not tried it before so hopefully someone else can offer advice.
I only mentioned the forum rules because it wasn't clear to me if you were trying to get retail maps.
It sounds like you probably aren't asking for illegal maps (free download of commercial maps).
Garmin has this download page.
Downloading the software from there is legal. If it will work with the maps that have been developed locally then you are in luck. I would suggest you ask for info on how in the same place where you will get the maps.
Now if you have to install or apply a "Crack" to the Garmin software for the maps to work then you are crossing into WAREZ and that is not allowed here.
i have garmin mobile xt on my fuze. its awesome btw and prolly the only software ive seen worth the money. the program and software upgrades are free which is good since my original installer is older but i have bought the 2009 maps. the thing with it is to use a non-gramin-branded gps receiver you have to buy a key code (i forgot what its called) that way they are actually making money for their products. that will unlock it for use with any gps receiver. it sounds a bit of a jip but the key lasts forever and the maps can also be loaded on to any other garmin devices you might own (like i do).
I use "garmine mobile xt" too under these conditions:

thans guyz .. i guess i got the answer.
i ll have to download the Mobile XT. Then to use it with internal GPS, i ll have to buy the license. Then use the custom maps ...

Hi,
I use to have nokia n71 with garmin gps navigation installed.
but I recently upgraded my phone to android nexus s.
the problem is, I have a map of pakistan which is only available in garmin gps navigation.
and theres no app of garmin in android.
so i am looking to make the garmin map work in android mobile,
any one knows how to do it?
I was trying to look to convert the map into navigon navigation gps file format, but i could not find anything.
or is there anything else i could try?
please .... help needed.
help needed....
have you tried the opensource offline GPS for Android?
they have more maps than retail version as they are free, and have more support
just google it
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).
do we have any map and gps program which do not need to connect to the internet for htc Mozart??
There is navigon select. But it requires some work to load US maps. That and you already have to have the maps from the iPhone software. Navigon xap is free and you can get it on this forum but you would have to purchase the iPhone app to get the maps.
Sent from my HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Appart from the Navigon select (which came free with my T-Mobile contract) there's also the $40 Garmin Software
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158116&highlight=Garmin
but this downloads the map on a per-route basis (not sure if you can download them beforehand via WiFi)
but, as already pointed out: there's Navigon select:
