I'v been trying to install iGO 8 or iGO 2006 on my new HTC Touch Pro.
It seems to install just fine from the SD card, but when I try to start-up, nothing happens. The "loading" symbol appears for a few seconds, then ... nothing.
Can anyone pls help?
Thank you so much.
LE: I am using ROM version: 1.90.401.1 WWE

its all ok, just post your question in the touch pro section.
But I think its not necesary, u already have the answer.
Moved to Raphael, aka Touch Pro, Forum.
HTC Touch Pro do not seem to have HTC Home. In the "Today" settings, there is the HTC Touch Flo enabeled. I tried to runn iGO with it desabeled, but no succes.
So, I think there must be some other way...
Install iGo8, then search for the latest update. Install the latest update, remove the iGo8 Today plugin in Setting > Today > Items, and add a link in the "Programs" tab of TF3D. That should do it (works fine on my Touch Pro)

Got it working now....
Just a quick question, does it work in landscape mode on the touch pro?
Uhm, I don't know why it isn't working for you because on my Touch Pro it works great. Just installed it, copied the appropriate files for my country (the Netherlands) into the appropriate dirs as mentioned in the readme and that's it. Uhm, no, I had to set the GPS on com4 in iGo8 to get the gps working but that was all I had to do.

Just tried it. Works great in landscape too.
Can you confirm that the maps render and scroll smoothly when navigating now unlike the jerky movement you have with the Kaiser?
I can't compare with the Kaiser, I never had one. But map scrolling seems ok to me.
Hmm I got the same problem.. How do you actually update it?
I just bought my htc pro touch so bear with me please.
i installed it. everything seemed fine, i click on it, i get a loading icon, nothing happens.
Keyboard?
Hi,
iGO8 seems to work, but I can't get the hw keyboard to function. Not one key seems to respond. Does everyone else have this problem?
Thanks,
Cheers,

i dont understand why there are reported problems with the gps software on this phone. is there anything outhere that just works , without tweaks or anything of the sort?
is the co pilot 7 better than igo8? in terms of usability by someone who doesnt understand how all this works
I have tested iGO8, TomTom 7, and Garmin XT. All work fine on the Touch Pro (but I did not test hardware keyboard input).
In my case, I found Garmin to have the best GPS performance: only 2-3 seconds lag behind my separate Garmin nuvi 760 unit, and <30 secs for first fix most of the time. iGO and TT are a little slower but still work fine -- but other people find iGO or TT to work very well.
Other thoughts: TT has the most detailed roadmaps, iGO and Garmin are average. But I find Garmin has the best POI support. iGO (and I think TT, also) supports TMC but (so far) it cannot be activated on the Raphael. Garmin does not have TMC but can download traffic from its servers via your data connection (3G, EDGE, etc). For me, Garmin is a solid middle-of-the-road software; the only major drawback is no TTS, which iGO and TT both have.
I haven't tested Co-Pilot 7, but since it's based on iGO core (iirc) I probably won't try it. But of course, you should try demo maps or at least read reviews to find out which software is good for you.

To help clarify, there are two separate issues. The first is that many GPS software comes on SD cards that are intended to be kept on the SD, or on CD to be installed to main device memory, though if you buy it you have every right to install it to your Raphael. Since the Raphael only has microSD, you may have to install the program in a certain way to get it running. You also have to be careful of the software version, since not all are compatible with WM6.1. (These issues come up all the time among people pirating the software.)
The other issue is about the GPS receiver in the Raphael. Lots of people are trying different tweaks to get the best performance (ie: no lag) out of their receiver. But it's unclear if it's a problem with a weak antenna, or if certain programs (iGO, Garmin, TomTom) run better/worse on the Raphael. The results have been somewhat mixed but we're gradually figuring everything out.
Hi, I am trying to install IGO 8 on the HTC touch Pro, Raphael. The installation seems ok but when I launch the program, nothing happens. The rainbow circle shows up but then nothing. I am wondering what I am doing wrong. Could someone please advise?
Thanks in advance.

Hello
Got a weird issue with the D-pad in google maps mobile. I can zoom out but not in. useing the on screen zoom in and out work fine. The D-Pad zoom works fine in both opera and IE. Cant seem to find any other issues w/search. Tried reinstalling/flashing both ROM and Google Maps. Anyone else came across this?
At&T Fuze
ROMeOS2 v1.90.1 WWE <-- loving it
Radio 1.02.25.32<-- still debating vs .28
Pretty sure google maps does not support it
Using the stock ATT rom I was able to Zoom in and out using the Circle around the D-pad. However after I recently flashed my rom to the new leaked Test Rom and I have the same problem also.
I'm wondering what GPS Navigation app is best for Manila, Philippines. I badly need help with directions, and Google Navigation doesn't work here yet.
Any suggestion free/paid (preferably free, but I doubt there's one)?
been searching for something like this as well.... nothing yet. our only hope is to get garmin to release software for the android (since they are releasing the garmin phone soon anyways). i believe only garmin has maps for manila... but even these are probably not official since the garmin website doesnt indicate that they have maps of the phillipines.
Yeah. I have a Garmin device, but I haven't seen a good enough map. I think, there are good maps out there, though.
I hope, we can extract that GPS navigation app from Garminfone
Sygic has maps for Metro Manila only for the Philippines.
Im also searching something like this... software that could support Malaysia map... need a free one... had anyone tried IGO for android?
Kumusta mga kapatid, now I'm not sure if this does include Manila, I was too lazy to read through this thread, all I know is that its supposed to be international navigation, so its worth a try.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630887
The best Garmin maps for the Philippians are free and located here http://roadguide.ph/Download.html#
Will install fine on a Garmin nav only device, winmo, symbian, etc but do nothing for any Android phone that doesn't run a gmapsupp.img, which is every Android except the Garmin ones, at this point.
i've been using the google maps navigation hack for use outside of USA. currently been driving in singapore and I use it quite frequently and it works like a charm. you may want to give that a try.
As long as you can find a suitable map file motonav will use it.
wow
wil try this.. hope this works on my diamond..
Use Garmin Mobile XT
Mga Pre!!!
The best GPS application I am using right now is Garmin Mobile XT.. Its really cool on my HD2 and i found updated maps for Caloocan area, every streets are updated.. Im also enjoying it here at jubail City KSA.. 3 Thumbs up!!
Sygic Mobile Maps
I have been using Sygic Mobile Maps 10 on my N1 for a couple of weeks now. It has a map just for Metro Manila, so just like MapKing the map area turns black as you leave the Metro Manila area.
I find it pretty accurate for Manila navigation.
Hello,
Please do share where you got your 'hacked' google maps navigation' and/or how you installed it. Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.

If I'm not mistaken, that hack won't work if Navigation isn't available for your country yet. I'm on CyanogenMod, and this allows me to run Google Maps navigation, but because there's no data for my area (Metro Manila, Philippines), I still can't use it.

can you give me link for garmin mobile
using papago .
sent from my satellite , s6xmeup
by using the Navdroyd, i get an accurate navigation in manila area and even outside of metro manila
try Navitel v3.5 or v5.0 (for Android), roadguide.ph had given a standard Philippine map on Navitel users, similar map being used by Garmin softwares. Works great on my GT P1000.
will google navigation work in manila? It sounds like the maps will load but will the navigation work?
I have HTC HD2 install android CM9, everything OK. but have problem with sygic_navigator_11_2_6 application (file attacked). it was installed in my device, but when i run. it just show program icon and out.
please have you tell me how is that?
thank you!
I had a problem with getting Sygic to run on ICS ROMs...I did a clean install of Nexus HD2 ICS CM9 HWA v2.3 ROM and then I updated to the latest version of Sygic which is the same as yours and problem was sorted. Hope this helps.
Hello Tuaa11,
I'm using this rom: [9.Jun.2012] NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.3 (Kernel: tytung_HWA_r3) and i have Sygic installed and it works flawless.
I use version 11,2,5 build R-32564 and it navigates very well..So it is possible. I guess this is what you mean with Sygic Navigator?
Looking forward to help you.
Greetings,
Arjan
PS. Just for the info, don't forget to download the maps first with Sygic downloader or else i guess it won't start up. (I think you already knew but just for the info)
I run Sygic 11.2.6 on NexusHD2-ICS-CM9_V2.2 (Tytung kernel r3).
It works perfectly.
A bit of a slow starter, but once up and running, Sygic runs perfectly.
No problems at all.
By the way, on NexusHD2-ICS-CM9_V2.2, and NexusHD2-ICS-CM9_V2.1 it ran perfectly too on my HD2. About older versions I don't know as I hadn't sygic installed then.
I've been using Sygic Aura (got legit licence and everything) for about 2 years now on various roms most recently the last four NexusHD2 builds - everything works fine for me.
Don't mind me asking, how is this compared to the cracked google maps?

Agreed. I've got a Tom Tom XL Europe which is no longer used as I use Sygic on my phone instead. It starts up quicker, the lane diagrams and voice instructions are by far superior. I've also compaired this against Navigon and CoPilot. :good:

Yes, i've try Copilot too, and Sygic is better for sure.
Sygic GPS Navigation v11.2.6 work great with GB and ICS roms.
i only keep winmo 6.5 for the gps. i have been waiting for winmo 6 on sd since forever which would make my HD2 even more perfect than it is already
for me anyway
igo 8 winmo > tomtom > igo 8 android > sygic
i did try copilot but for me in the middle east the maps are hopelesly out of date
keep that in mind when recommending an offline gps nav program, the fairly minor differences in interface are not much use when the maps are 2 years old
thanks everybody
its really ok.
Because i downloaded a file install apk have problem, i installed again with google play and its still cant run. the last, problem is not enough memory for program was started, i dont know i have more 30Mb internal storage.
I think sygic realy the best navi program, now
thanks for your help
Hello , I have the Note 2 n7100 international version , and I am looking for a sygic nav app thats works anyone can send me download link please .thank you
Hmm, you seem to be in the wrong place, this is HD2 forum

guys anyone out there who has a cab file for compass... ( one that shows east west north south)
i ended up searching duttys compass bt it aint working on my x1...
so plz any one has one or similar app showing EWNS direction... for x1... :-o
Hi there, as much as I know, Xperia X1 does not have the necessary hardware for those applications. For a compass application to work you need an apropriate chip implemented in your device. Although you can walk around the problem by using some GPS apps that can point certain direction (for example North). The only thing is that you have to move a few meters in a straight line, for the app to know which direction you face On android you could use a geocaching app "c:geo".
