Buy it! (just in case you thought you could get it for free...)
Besides Garmin Mobile XT. still have any GPS software there is using satellite ?
All GPS apps use satellites
Have a look at Navigon MN7 or TT7.

It's a free download, you only need to buy the maps if you don't have them.

Obviously it's a free download, but the program itself also needs some activation code. At least if you'd like to use the internal GPS of X1.
If you don't like to buy Garmin maps, there's a quite nice and legal alternative
Some guys at openstreetmap.org did a very nice job and made some free maps for Garmin devices.
EU and Germany could be downloaded here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:All_in_one_Garmin_Map
These files work also with Garmin XT (latest version) on X1.
Have a look around in the wiki, if you may find maps for your country.
There are also other nice projects that support the Garmin format, e.g.:
http://openmtbmap.org/

Thx for this usefull answer.... I found a list of countries in the wiki you mentioned:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mapping_projects#Europe
Now I only have to figure out how to get it to work with Garmin Mobile XT
I'm trying to get them to work too, if I figure it out I'll post how I did it (as I'm sure you will)!
Hi!
In a few words:
The OSM files that have been created need to get converted to Garmin format.
You'll find the tools and description also at the openstreetmap wiki.
At the end you'll get a file named gmapsupp.img
Place this file on your storage card in the Garmin folder.
You'll need a registered copy of Garmin XT to make it work though!

Since warez isnt allowed here , go and search on google for torrents you will find it....

So I have always used TT6 on all my htc devices but I wont work on my touch hd. Tried to buy TT7 from tomtom.com and they told me it's not for sale in the US. I am looking for something that has directions and live traffic update that works here in the US. Any input would be great.
Here's a similar thread:

Thanks for the link. Alot of those users are outside of US. It sucks to have to pay another $100 for another gps software.
I really like the Garmin software. It integrates with Google Maps so you can search for POI's within Garmin (using updated POI information from Google Maps) and it pulls them into the Garmin software. I used TT6/TT7 for years until I got this.
I don't know how is is in the US, but if you want TMC, I recommend Igo8. With this navigator you can use live traffic information with TMC. (If you want more information look for TMC in this forum).
But like I said I don't know how it is in the US (I don't know if you use TMC there)
I like that. Will look for this software.

Are you referring to Garmin Mobile XT? I was put off that since you can't transfer it to a larger memory card. You're stuck with the one it comes on which is a tad inconvenient.
I've tried TT7, IGO8 and NDrive, of these 3, IGO8 is a hands down performer. Not only does it look nice with its 3D scenery, but the refresh rate of IGO8 graphics is way way way better than TT7.
NDrive has a good refresh rate, but unfortunately it makes navigation mistakes and offers little customization, therefore I don't feel it is really ready for prime time yet.
Garmin might be good, I haven't tried it.
But IGO 8 lags so much on the Touch HD.. especially with the 3d buildings turned on...

Thanks.

I'd say, iGO is THE best choice for the touch HD. Integrates just perfectly with WVGA, allows portrait/landscape use modes and various sysfile modifications, delievers very nice graphical performance and great design - with carbon background it looks like a very expensive stand alone GPS device There are different skins for the app, too.
And it works very well with the TMC solution in this forum. It just works. A device like HD, equipped with the powerful GPS hardware deserves powerful software like iGO8.
My choice:
TT7: Very easy to use.
Garmin: Better maps (at least in Lithuania) but GUI is not good.
iGO: This software is usable. I like the way iGO draws pictures. GUI is also convinient.
So I use TT7 for day2day navigation and Garmin - if I travel to places I have never been. Because TT7 might not have the latest maps of that Area.
All of them are tested and works on my Touch HD. Unfortunately I tested not legal versions and can't tell if the legal ones works well.

Yes, that is the software. However, you can transfer it if you know how ... meaning "hacking" / cracking / unlocking it.
Maybe the new Version of nDrive (Release Date will bei 23rd May 09) makes a big step forward. Haven't seen any Screenshots yet but hopefully it#ll get even better than it is. Plus: It's the cheapest professional Navi-Software i know.
I use Navigon, until now it's the only one (that i have) that worked great and doesn't have a lag. Navigon works nice on the Touch HD!
Navigon doesn't even start up on my touch.. At least the official version, downloaded from the navigon website doesn't.
I use these; navigon,sygic,iGO8,tomtom7
all with latest western europe map
i like tomtom7 the most because i can hook it up to tomtomhome2 and use mapshare also iGO8 is handy with the tmc working now but i cant get it to work in portraitmode yet
does anyone know of an application that will give a 6,8,10 figure grid reference via GPS on the x1?
i wanted to use it for navigating during hill walking, i know some gps systems can do this so i dont see why not?
for anyone who was interested i found the answer:
memmory map.
availible for download on a free trial from their website, UK OS maps are availible online and this can use your gps to plan routes a perfect buddy for any hiking
Hi guys,
Please tell me where can i find igo with 480x800 support. I find 240x320 but it's small at this big screen thx
there is no igo for android which you can buy with a High Resolution, i also hope that there will come something, because i loved it on winmob, currently i use Navigon which runs very smooth and is good.
i like Copilot 8 better
having seen CoPilot on a friends device I'm thinking of converting to it, I'm a big iGo fan but CoPilot.......well its cool
Igo has maps update more often
but i like the Display of CoPilot better is more clean and natural
I used to be devoted to TomTom, but not anymore, after finding CoPilot
CoPilot has more maps updates than TomTom, but Igo beats them all in regards to frecuency of map updates.
I had Igo on my hd2, wasnt too keen on it. Didnt have my address listed in the maps. the house has been here since the 1950s. only a small gripe but it mattered to me. havent decided what to get for my galaxy yet.
Use Motonav. Looks pretty cool but slow menus. But has 80 % of the futures igo has. And uses the same maps as IGO.
Copilot has way to old maps.
Try out NDrive, it has the cleanest UI and is much faster than both Copilot and Mobile Maps.
Hey guys,
I have a problem with file data.gro on my Samsung Galaxy S. I have found the file that contains hi resolution for iGO. I run root explorer and want to copy data.gro to iGO folder.
I can delete the old one, but I can't copy/move the new one. Let us say I can, but the root explorer doesn't copy the file without any warning notification. I have root rights and folder data/data/com.navgo.igo.javaclient is in r/w mode.
any idea?
Thanks
So - which is the definitive GPS app for the i9000 ?
You mentioned like 4 or 5 apps
Thanks guys !
PS : I'm from Europe...

No need if you find motonav for NexusOne that has 800x480
SDCARD folder "Motonav" should be copied/installed in INTERNAL flash.
Maps are pretty small compared with TomTom or nDrive.

Google Maps Navigation. Search for Brut Mode, enables Navigation worldwide and you can also save maps in cache.
I used iGO 8 for windows mobile in my HTC Diamond. It was by far the best navigator I have used and I think I have tried them all.
iGO My Way for android which is only available for 480x320 is exactly the same product as Motonav. Same functionality,, small graphical differences. Unfortunately not even close to iGO 8 functionality. For me Navigon is the best one right now but after using iGO 8 everything is a disappointment...

If bought right now NDrive V10 with all Western Europe Maps for 20 Euros. Maybe it´s interesting for other people. Can be bought directly in the Ndrive app. Found this info in another german forum. Downloading now 2.6GB
Sygic maps 10 works perfectly with the sgs, althought several buttons could get bigger and startup is kinda slow.

Sygic works well, also Navigon, although the Navigon app is huuuge and not recommended if you have data on NAND
Navigon is pretty good.
Always been a big fan of trekbuddy, I know it has an android port now, it is a bit more work setting up maps and stuff, but depending on what you use it for, it's pretty good, especially offline, ( and off-road ).
Not sure I'd use it for sat nav, I prefer using it for biking/walking stuff, but it does do a lot of stuff that most gps software miss
I'm really surprised that no utility has been released that allows forced user selected cache'ing of google navigation maps so the app could be used offline- this would be a killer method!
Anyone heard of NDRIVE successfully running on KAISER? I've stumbled across some reviews which claim it is the fastest GPS app,
Also any comments on smallest app size - one that could install to NAND and 1GB SD card?
I am using NAVIGON, which is working very well.
Hi everyone,
I've used Navit for android,even if it's not complete as other software, it's opensource and for me it worked great.
Some poblems to find road names in small town,but it depends on Openstreatmap,not on navit.It's not on the market you have to download from navit web site (just type: navit android on google and you'll find it).

Hi,
I'm using HTC Desire HD, and I used to use Garmin for gps service in the car.
I really need Garmin Navigation!
In the Andriod phone, I need to buy the GPS navigation service,
First of all, do anyone have the code for buildin HTC GPS code?
BTW, I really need Garmin for Andriod.
Please help
Unfortunately my friend Mui9 we will not see Android version of Garmin any time soon. Although there is an Android version, derived from the partnership between Garmin and Asus, the sw version is tightly locked for these specific Asus devices. And due to this partnership, Garmin is "prisoned" not to sell for other Android phone manufacturers.
Garmin currently only supports BlackBerries, and now iPhone with their new app. Users with Symbian and WM devices can also use old Garmin versions for their phones (unsupported though).
Some popular navigation software for Android (which one is best actually depends on where you live):
1) Navigon
2) Sygic
3) Google Navigation
4) NDrive
5) CoPilot Live
To conclude, I too await for Garmin on my DHD! I believe it is by far the best Nav software out there. I hope Garmin will hear our prayers .
