Hi
Is there any iGO version working on SGT in full screen mode?
No.
Use Copilot instead imo
Bringing this back up... I have used Copilot and dont like it. IGo maps are more up to date and I am specifically looking for egypt maps which are very limited on Copilot.
Come on... cant someone find a fix for iGo? why is it so complicated...
Thanks...
Try sygic aura 3??

Another one for Aura! It is times better than iGO! Maps are regularly updated too!
Google maps/Nav doesnt work for you?
I used Sygic Aura... its fantastic! but no joy on middle east maps... too bad,, its one of the best Nav systems I have seen,
Any good app to recommend compatible with Note screen resolution?

I'm using ALK Copilot for road/city
Maverick Pro for offroad / walking / hikking
They both use offline maps stored on the internal SD card

Wow, you really like it but still want to steal it? Why do you not buy it? It is a great product!

hehe well, i'm frm Symbian background, where I could get any paid app for free easily. This is my first android device, so will kind of take time to get used to it. And 23 euro is costly for me here in India
Sygic is pretty good. Also navfree works and its ok.
+1 for CoPilot for navigation. For hiking, Prus Maps is nice, and free.

Meaning Orux Maps, not Prus Maps.

I'm using GPS Grid Reference from the Market. I've downloaded all the Ordinance Survey tiles at all resolutions for SE England on my PC and pre-cached them on the SD card - i.e. the phone doesn't have to get them off-air any more. There are instructions how to do this on the app dev's website.
Hi all,
Can anyone suggest some GPS app that's good for our Galaxy Note and better if without relying on data connection?
(possibly someone from Asia as i understood that Europe/US might have other GPS apps? )
First of all, I'm on STAXX PA 1.7 ICS with Anidroid Kernel v1.0.
I've tried a few, but not all that good:
1. Waze - free, quite nice, but require data connection, when get to somewhere without signal...
2. Sygic - free for 14 days, nice interface, doesn't require data connection, but can't find most location?!?! :silly:
3. Papago X5 - paid, quite accurate, doesn't require data connection, but doesn't support our Note resolution
4. Papago M9 - paid, quite accurate, doesn't require data connection, suppose to be Note-compatible, but not sure why, mine is not showing full screen. due to custom rom?
Any others that I can try?
*now i started to miss my days with my HTC Tytn 2 with Garmin...*

Gps can locate your position without using data But how do you suggest it can load your map without data?? Have you been watching harry potter too much?
Navfree World (hxxps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.navfree.android.OSM.ALL&hl=en) works quite well. It does require a fairly hefty download (200-500mb) to get the maps for your country in the first place, but once the maps are downloaded, a data connection is no longer required.
The only "problem" is that it uses OpenStreetMaps, which while decent, doesn't have the detail that many of the commercial satnav offerings have.
Replace the xx in the URL above with tt, the forum won't let me post links yet.

Sygic works completely without a data connection. Highly recommended.

Yeah, you can download regions onto your SD card and just have GPS on, data will not be used

Open Google Maps.
Open Menu and Select Make Available Offline.
Now Select the area or add City you want to make available offline.
Click OK. (It will download the Area you selected on your device)
Done. Cheers!!!
Hope it helps...
Some areas are not available for offline map download in Google maps.
You could try NDrive. Paid apps, download able offline maps. Support the note screen size if I remembered correctly.

I'm using Sygic for the past two years now. Using it since the days of my good' old Wave 2 !! It is pretty much accurate in India. It shows even the smallest of locations. And gets a lock fast. :good: Uses Sygic Downloader to download maps(One time) so it's pretty much an offline navigation.

@OP
Above shown method will reduce(if you using navigation in area of downloaded map hardly it uses few KB) data consumption.
Google map still needs active data connection to run navigation. can't use as true offline navigation
Sygic is best from i tried, Sygic/Navigon/Ndrive 1-2 more from market.
Still google is the best if you have data connection.

Sadly, I don't watch harry potter...and surprisingly, you don't know about GPS without data connection...you should try the one i mentioned in my list...

Never knew about that, thanks for the heads up...but sadly Google navigation doesn't work properly outside US...
Use Mod version of google navigation that is world navigation activated, works anywhere.

I sucessfully tested osmand. It's a nice frontend to OSM maps with offline routing. The UI could use some polishing but overall impression is positive.
If allows up to 16 map downloads (countrywide) free.

Try Be-On-Road
Its in the app store. I tried a bunch of free and trial programs for offline nav on my Samsung N7000. This seemed to be the best - by far. For the entire USA, the cost for perpetual app and maps (update once per year) was $25. A decent price, I think. Slightly odd UI but easy to get used to via their 7-day trial. Not perfect. But I found a bug, reported it, got fast response, and a fix from the developer who will include it in the next release. Gotta like that. Wish it could navigate better using entries in the contacts list but it kinda works (if you have a data connection). Well worth checking out.

The trick is to enter your destination before you leave while you have Internet. Google navigation works fine with offline maps after that.
Within few minutes it will end with msg 'data connection lost'

Which one of the latest apps do you prefer and why? (or do you like something different)

Since there is an issue with GPS does it matter what you use?
My two cents are in for co-pilot. All maps are downloaded to your device. It's over 1gb data file for the entire US but you can navigate without data connection.
via stark naked magic
Google maps or waze

Simple question really What mapps do people use??
Free would be nice or any download ones going about??
Iv got an xtrons td696as running Hal9k Mod v2.3.
Thanks.
I use the paid version of co pilot, have you tried waze or Sygic
No Iv only got Google maps and download offline mapps
waze, just because of traffic info.
