Any Good Navigation Application for Hero, Please Suggest? (Europe Maps)

I would like to know what Application do you use for Navigation (but not Google Maps). I'm not sure does the Navigon has app for Android phone or Tom Tom.

I used navigon and works Perfect in the Hero, you need to have in your SD card minimum 2 Gigabytes free, try the Demo that is in the google market.

Copilot seems to work flawlessly for me ?

Should I root the Hero to see the paid apps on the Android Market? If i should what rom is the best for Hero? I downloaded some Modaco's 3.2 rom but couldn't install it...

you'll need to root the phone to run a custom rom, follow the many guides on here, then you can install the modaco rom, as said though for sat nav, copilot is probably the best out there.

I rooted and installed a modaco 3.2 rom . but still can't see paid apps on the market?

you may need market enabler search it on these forums

I installed market enabler but still can't see paid apps? should I set smth on the program?

I see now paid apps on the market with the Market Enabler. But just need free space for the Navigon.... got to buy SD card with more space ...

as i can see comments the Copilot crashes often, i see good comments about Navigon.

We cannot discuss that here! So don't ask!
Copilot is really cheap! I have used it on Iphone and WM, found it slow on Iphone and crashed on a HTC HD2 a lot. So I have stayed away from it on Android.
I use Navigon and it is great.

I use Sygic Mobile Maps, which is very good. You can't buy it in the Market - either download from their site or buy a retail version from Teleatlas.
I have heard a lot of bad reports about Copilot's support. I suggest you have a read of the forums on this site

I think for my country the best one is Navigon. But first I need Sd card with more space at least 4gb,(need to create again a goldcard on the new Sd card .... )got to buy the license for the Navigon ... I still haven't unlocked the phone yet kinda don't believe those sites who sell the codes ...
I see now why Android makes you a hard developer ....

I just thought I'd stick up for CoPilot, I have been using it since before christmas on many ROM's (including 1.5, 1.6 and 2.1 both sense and vanilla) and I have never once had a single crash or freeze with it. Works perfectly, would recommend it it highly

go away.....
sorry but this really really annoys me. People put a lot of work and effort into making apps for phones like ours and prices are mainly cheap. If everyone started hacking apps all the time then prices would rise or in extreme cases dev's would just stop making apps altogether (less so when its a big company making it).
You should respect both the dev's copyright as well as the rules of this forum.

i like Igo Myway. Has 3d & turn by turn. Plus instead of a car you can have a bloke on a bike, a tank or a boy on a magic carpet.

+1 for iGo Myway! I love it.

Another vote for IGo
IGo seems to be the best one available so far. I tried CoPilot but it has issues with the routing it chooses, although I had fastest route selected, it sometimes routed me through small roads when I had the motorway available. Other than that it worked fine. Tried Navigon, it works fine but I don't like the fact that it doesn't display enough information like speed, distance to destination, time left to travel (or I couldn't find how to do it?) but my favorite so far is IGo.

[Q] GPS for my click

I need help, please. I don't know what program to use for GPS on my Tattoo.

Google maps
Ndrive
Copilot etc...

i think IGO is the best for rooted device...

Navit works quite well, but there still is some polishing to do.

I can't find IGO in market, I dont suppose IGO made for android

IGO is defenitly the best

I think navigon works fine. Like it and it´s was a fair price .
Gmaps with Brut works fine if you only drive in you homecountry. Cost alot if you have roaming in other country

There is IGO made for Android devices and yes there is a version working on tattoo. Just search the forum.

I use Copilot live compatible with android 2.2 and 2.3 and not very expensive !

IGO works fine for me...

i'll try this, but i'm using navigon for about half year and it's great, no lag, much faster much precise then garmin on nokia n95

its very important to set your country... I just got navigon and here (brazil) it's worse than ****.
iGO is the best by far.
2nd is coPilot imho.

Ndrive ftw!

Vers. 2.2 and 2.3 Copilot is great, with original vers. 1.6 Navigon in Europe and
nDrive for the rest of world.

I've tried with Sygic with my CM7 firmware and successfully installed but couldn't run because it always displayed black screen and closed program. I don't know why and how to solve?
Now I'm trying Ndrive and it works for me.
Maybe I will try iGo also.

Try waze. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.waze

go pilot is the best

Whats your favourite Navigation Software

I have tested a few, and my favourite is Navigon.
However, it is one of the most expensive applications, and I can not buy maps for Scandinavia alone, so I'm looking for a replacement.
Unfortunately Google's Navigation is not available in Norway.
Which do you prefer?
Please take my poll, and I appreciate additional information and tips if you have tested several navigation systems.
Thanks!

I prefer copilot as google navigation does not allow or let you save fav places which are not on the map say for instance I am looking for a shop not in the search result so I look on the map,pin it but cannot save it in say shops or eating places like you can in copilot.

Yeah, me too. Copilot is great.

am using Copilot too and am pretty much happy about it!

I found Navigon to be a very good and "light-weight" navigation software. It's easy to use, gives great directions and has a clean layout. Still it could benifit from more options and customizations as it's really not that advanced.
CoPilot is a great application also, but I think it's interface is too cluttered.
Yesterday I read a review about Sygic Aura, and bought the Scandinavian version for 19,99EUR. This is by far my favourite of these three as it has a really nice UI, great (and I mean really great) graphichs and is really easy to use but still has a lot of advanced feautures.

I agree, sigyc Aura is greate. Easy to use and really grate grafics and UI.

im useing "waze", you can find it on the market.

Guys, don't you think CoPilot is a bit inaccurate when calculating travelling time though?
My commute into work takes 1 hour, always has, TomTom agrees with me, but CoPilot thinks it'll take 1.5 hours.... strange...

Sygic Aura doesn't give you the price. you only can download the free version. Don't like this. I want to know how much I'm going to pay if I buy it. Won't even try it.

I've got LOCATIONS, but for me the best is TOMTOM. I had it on my Kaiser, and with its so small screen I was able on one little glance to read all important elements (next way out, speed, etc..)

NDrive is good and has fairly up to date australian maps, Aura lacks maps for australia it seems which is unfortunate.

Brut maps all the way buddy. Google it

Sygic Aura all the way! But I do miss my igo8 on wm6.5
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Nobody talks about LOCATIONS PREMIUM.
Interesting navigation, but missing a lot of options. Not expensive.
Missing :
- enter adress from contacts (as MAPS)
- enter GPS with the coordinates.
each time you want to configure you have to go back to locations. it means shut the navigation down and open LOCATION.
Otherwise, its very clear navigation. GPS is very precise (suppose it doesn't depend of the program)
hope we'll soon have a good update...

Sure you're living in a big country. In Switzerland you walk 2 steps and you are in roaming!!!

In CoPilot I miss the following funktions.
When they are fixed I think it will be the best Nav-app:
Foto-nav - When I get qa photo by mms or mail, it would be great to be able to navigate to it.
Navigate to contact - Now I cant click a contact in my phone-book and navigate to him/her. That sux!

Working very good. No problems, just the installation takes about 90 minutes. The version of kounadisk Navigon Select V 3.0 WP7 is nicer. But I find it very important that if one uses a program often then one should buy it. That's the only way to ensure that the developper will be able to develop further the program. I find the price not to high in comparison with the prices I used to pay for the navigation programs on windows mobile.

Thank you very much!

Navigon for USA V4 working great here!

turn by turn navigation only $4.99

V4 here, running on DFT mango rom, works great

Yes it is NICE no need for data plan and is accurate.....

Using Navigon on a HD7S since a couple of days now and really like it.
I used to use Garmin on a Blackberry, which was actually pretty good as well but Navigon in my opinion has the following advantages:
a) quicker routing and re-routing
b) has definitely a nicer/cleaner interface
c) provides for better POI search functions
d) works with on-board maps (huge plus)
Bottom line: great navigation app and well worth the money.

Works on hd7, go on mobilism.org download navigon and install it on your hd7.

Wroks great here too, just the rotation to landscape seems choppy!

Simply the best navigation soft available in the marketplace!!! Working very good on Hd7.

NAVIGON has not good to planned routes.

It works great on my HD7 with both stock and cooked ROM. Highly recommended at the introductory price. For those of us with limited data plans NAVIGON is the only way to go.

Works V4 Europe very good here!

Navigon v4 works good here
I am running Navigon USA v4 on deepshining v2 rom. Working good here. Fast and accurate. Voice not coming through my bluetooth though. Havent dove into that yet.

why no tomtom?

hi just took delivery of a razr i ,tried downloading all my apps from play store ,i had paid for tomtom uk [android]
for my galaxy s 3 ,but it stated that it is not compatible with the razr i strange any help please

at a guess its because it wasnt designed to be used with the intel chip inside razr i ...s3 uses arm technology

ahhh yes ,well i dont want to loose it guess ill buy a cheap android tablet for the car

that'll work,but personally i like the google maps/navigate as its always up to date and free..

I have Navfree which free and uses Openstreetmap and Ndrive paid for which use Navteq maps and another one Sygic which uses TomTom all work on the Razr i

try to contact tomtom support and ask for an update enabling x86 version.

I loved TomTom on my DHD, a month later i bought the RAZR i. It was the first navigation i really liked, had not a bulky interface and looked like it was meant to be used on android. I was really disappointed it wouldn't work on the RAZR.
Can you save the maps on the SD Card? I'm using sygic now as i can just download the maps i want to in a few minutes. The Europe maps take so much space and i need them so rarely..

I always thought that TomTom is the best navigation, I used it on all previous devices. Now I use Navigon and I'm not dissapointed. It's stable with nice interface und practical features. Regarding pictures on the Google Play TomTom has less transparent interface and it demands more memory. Try Navigon and ask yourself: do I miss something?

My thought is that Tomtom on Android is not what you except from it.
I use Sygic from years and it works as well as a "good" Tomtom... understand: better than Tomtom on Android.
I was a little bit disappointed by the Android version of Tomtom, so I stay with Sygic that works pretty well (and is fully compatible with the Razr i)
Navigon feel clunky and not so good, I tried it once, didn't like it... for a higher price than sygic.

I know it's no help, but...
CoPilot Live Premium Europe
runs fine on the RAZR i too.
Hope you can sort it out with the TomTom support.

I'm very happy with the (free) Google navigation product.
No frills, but it gets you from A to B just fine, including re-routing around bad traffic.
P.

yes i have navigon so i will use that for now ,who knows in the future it may be possible ,ay but what a nice little phone this is!

AW: why no tomtom?
My dad got his Razr I today. It was shipped with ICS and I installed all his neccesary apps. TomTom was one of them, It worked fine until I did the update to Jelly Bean. Then it started to close itsself. Reinstalling didn't help either.
So I can definitly say, that Jelly Bean is causing the problems. I think the guys from TomTom will be able to fix this easily
