Hello,
I know it’s a long shot, but I thought I'd ask if anyone know the best solution for getting any Navigation or GPS maps going on the Touch HD/Blackstone for Morocco.
I've looked for Tomtom and igo, but neither do maps. I am looking into Garmin mobile XT, but not sure if this will help me in a car?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
James
NDrive has a 7 MB-Morocco map, and it is touch-optimized for the HD. Not as feature-rich as the competition, but it does the job.

But you could also check Morocco roads on Google Maps first, and then consider Google Navigator, a PDA product not associated with Google, but providing offline Google maps with turn-by-turn instructions for your PDA.

www.tomtom.com ;-)
if your using 3G you could also use Googlemaps for the phone.
for more information: http://www.google.com/mobile/gmm/index.html
point your phones browser to http://www.google.com/gmm
any freebies?
The only free one I know of is Googlemaps that I already spoke about. tTough you pay for the data downloaded via your ISP using 3G/Wifi.
tbh who would make a GPS Navigation application and ask nothing for it?
How about smart2go, you can download the maps for free of Europe and do navigation (on screen) all for free. The only bit you pay for is the voice prompts.
I use tomtom, but I've given it a go and it works pretty well. I'm planning on using it in greece later in the year as there's better coverage than the version of tomtom I have.
It's a little fiddly to get the map loader program to install the maps, but if you try and have a problem let me know and I'll try and find out what I did to get it working.

any source or link? download link?
i would like the tomtom version....actually everyone is talking bout it also.
http://www.smart2go.com (free)
or
http://www.tomtom.com (certainly not free!)
Hehehe.
I love all the answers skirting around what he's asking for...
Nobody can give you a link to Pirated software on this forum, sorry. Search Google for that.
Another FREE alternative is Microsoft Live Search. It's actually a pretty good GPS program if you look around in it. Also, it uses speech recognition to input what you are looking for. Give it a try.
just in the process of setting my Desire up.
Can any one advise how I configure it to allow me to use it as a Sat Nav with turn by turn directions etc..
Also how do I get UK & NZ Maps ?
how fast will it be finding satellites compared to a TomTom ?
My old Nokia N95 8GB took ages !!
Thanks
Hi Albert
If you want to use Google maps for navigation you'll need the brut modded maps for NZ, the normal maps will work in the UK though. I didn't find the google navigation particularly handy though so i got Navigon which is great. The maps are installed on the SD you you won't need a data connection all the time. There's a 30 trial and if you don't get the full license you'll still be able to use it in the country you first registered it.
Connecting is REALLY fast! I've even connected while i was inside away from the window (not all the time though)
btw...comparing it to TomTom, i noticed i love to be able to see nevigation in portrait mode where that isn't possible on TomTom ofcourse. Portrait mode will give you a much further view of the road compared to landscape view.
Thanks
Are there any other decent free sat nav options for the UK & NZ. ?
you don't happen to have a link for brut maps do you ?
Thanks again
Get Nav Launcher from the Market. It will install brut maps for you and everything else.
Thanks I'll try that..
Last quick question will I need to find the UK & NZ maps or does this do it all ??
Google Navigation uses online maps - you need to have an active data connection, though I believe it is supposed to cache maps when it calculates a route.
Unless you've got decent data plans in both the UK and NZ, it probably isn't much use to you.

Dave
Thanks

Free options? No, not in my opinion. Google Maps Navigation is the closest free navigation app to the paid offerings, but I still believe it isn't as good overall as something like Copilot.

I believe there's Navigon, Copilot and Tom Tom is coming soon.
There's also AndNav for free from the market, Waze and I believe Wikitude now does Augmented Reality Directions.
I have no experience in any of these applications though.
There is also this:
http://www.mapdroyd.com/
But I'm not sure weather it does turn by turn or weather it's just offline maps.
thanks.
I'll look at all the apps suggested.
download copilot from android market and if you dont like it uninstall it within 24 hours and you wont be charged. I have tried them all and I find that copilot is about the best app out there for android, however their customer service is extremely slow, took about two weeks for them to answer a trouble ticket. however app is very well priced and it is an excellent bit of kit.
Thanks I will take a look
Does anyone have a GPS program with Swedish maps? Or know where I can get one?
It should also be free
If, where can I download it?

Tomtom(.com) (route planner) works well and has Swedish maps, for oziexplorer(.com) (topografic maps), also Swedish maps exist as I remember well. Both work well but are officially not free.

Ever heard of Google? try tomtom 7.9 pda and it will help you on your way.
Or try news groups. For oziexplorer, there is a demo version on the web site. Maps via news groups
Hi!
I like NaviComputer a lot. It is free and you can use the NaviMapper application, which comes with the installation on your desktop to download OpenStreetMaps. This way you can stay offline all the time, but have great maps.
This tool is not meant to be a Navigation software like TomTom etc.
The only downside of the program in my opinion is, that you cannot search for street names. You always need to have a rough idea, where you want to go.
I'm using it for GeoCaching for instance.

Try sygic mobile maps 10
I am new to android which is giving me many choices for navigation. What is the best navigation software android has to offer? I prefer Garmin but there is not an app for it.

Google Maps navigation is in my opinion the best. also sprint nav isn't too bad, but google is better.
Telenav for Sprint seems kind of dodgey on all the devices I have ever used it on. I will try the google one thank you.

is there any navigation program like igo8? which doesnt require any 3G data download connection to load the map?
cause in malaysia, the data download cost is ridiciously high.
CoPilot Live is what you're looking for (I use it, nice). It's in the Market, and the whole U.S maps are on special for $4.99. Sweet deal.
Check out their site for info on maps of other locales.
Navigon had an Android gps app but they pulled it sometime ago.
Forgive My Brevity. To Be Or Not To Be...
I used MapDroyd when I went across country. No data connection at all in the deserts.
MapDroyd is good!!! but they doesnt give me navigation to the destination..
any more suggestion?

Did you even try CoPilot Live? It's a full GPS navigation app with TTS.
yeap, CoPilot is not in the market apps, and its a paid application.
anymore suggestion? i used to use iGO8(crACKED) on my omnia and diamond2....
also im in melbourne(australia) and Kuala Lumpur(malaysia) often
I've tried co pilot, and Igo and they are all slow at responding. I find google maps work very smoothly and does everything u need.

So you're looking or warez then or something free? Dude, there's always Google or Yahoo or Bing.
Otherwise, CoPilot Australia details are here http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/travel/copilot-live-australia-nz_boqf.html
or
Ndrive might be your best bet as they have maps for both Australia and Malaysia (Asia and Oceania) here http://www.ndriveweb.com/products/product/7/
i m a biker roam to new route everyday pls.....provide me good GPS based NAVIGATION software for defy

Copilot is really good !
It is a offline navigation!
Theres also this thing I use called naviONE
Sygic is pretty good. It has some accurate maps.
Cheers,
I think Motonav is the best one.
no, motonav is complicated and stupid, CoPilot is the best offline navigation
hi, i checked the copilot site -- copilotlive com they does not cover india maps. ?
