Thanks for your reply,
Maps (-) is a nice application, but maybe i did not explain myself correctly in the above topic . . (I need a turn by turn Offline GPS App like garmin for symbian) but for the Froyo 2.2
Thanks !!

Have you tried GPS Test (developed by Chartcross Ltd)?

I think Copilot Live 8 released a froyo update recently.

Do they have a trial please ?

I don't think there is a trial version of Copilot, though there is a trial version of Navigon which lasts for 30 days.
IMHO though, Copilot is better than Navigon.

Thanks Dave,
I will get copilot
Do you think i will manage to get a map for Malta pls ? (will be on holiday there soon)

Sygic Mobile maps 10 or Copilot 8,2 both work on froyo

motonav works on 2.2

iGo (motonav), navigon (navitel company)

Thanks for your replies
so far the only one with Malta maps is Sygic.
Any feedback if sygic works well on the HTC Desire V2.2 please ?

I haven't tested it extensively, but so far works great

I can confirm iGo works great on the Desire. Works with any 8.3 version maps which i believe covers the whole of europe, north america and australia

Motonav works well on Desire."My way" doesn't fit to 480x800

Any Navigation Software???

Is there any navigation softwer for Htc Desire?
I've tried with iGo, but it is only on the half of the screen...
What about MotoNav?
I've found apk file, but it keeps saying that i need to have motonav sdcard inserted?
any help would be appriciated...
There is Google Maps with Navigation in the US and UK. There is CoPilot which is a paid app but is full screen and very nice and easy to use.

I just used the google turn by turn navigation that comes with the phone, works really well, not as good as Co Pilot but it's free and works.
You can also use Sygic and Ndrive,both run very well on my X10 and i don't see why they shouldn't run on the Desire.
Sygic on my desire too....lock in 5-10seconds and its full screen...
hopefully some1 will sort out a solution for igo as that is the best app ever for navigation.
Sygic runs amazing on the Desire... The better screen just makes the software SO much nicer than on the Hero
Navigon works pretty well.
Fortunately t-mobile (Germany) put maps for all European countries on the SD Card in advance. ( At first I was wondering why i only had 2Gb Space left on my SD Card when booting for the first time XD )
For me the best navigation is the adjusted Motonav so it fits on a 480x800 screen. You tried it, but I doubt you als had the sdcard/motonav/license folder with the right file. That's why it keeps saying you need to insert the right SDcard.
i´m using navigon europe edition.
works smooth and fast as hell!!!
I wish Sygic would hurry up and release an Australian version.
Either that or iGo would release an official Android version (other than Motonav). I also have the 320x240 screen. Even at full res the iGo screen is a bit cramped.
ok, so i am from serbia, and used to have igo on my magic, because igo and garmin have the best maps for my country.
and as i figured out motonav is igo for mototola using android, for europian market. if anybody has/knows the way for installing motonav with correct resolution and with working licence, please contact me on pm

I guess there is an igo folder on the sd card. rename it to Motonav and motonav will work (even I think its a crap, but still... )
I have been using Co-Pilot Live 8, so far the best available for android. I am used to Tom Tom on WM devices but not available sadly for android. However, Co-Pilot does the job well.
ok...sorry for putting this thread in wrong section...
I've managed to start motonav, there is still resolution problem, but it is ussable
thanx
i use copilot8 pretty quick no issues.

What GPS to use on defy CM7.1 official?

Hey ppl I just upgraded my defy the new CM7.1 official, now I'm looking for a GPS software to use here in brazil so, good brazil maps are important to me.
can you guys please give me your thoughts about what GPS should I use?
Also, I saw some ppl saying that CM7 does not support A-GPS is that true?
Thx in advance and best regards.
of course it supports A-GPS... as for maps, im using Google Maps and its working fine where i live (remote village of North-East India), i dont know about brazil...
In my opinion, there's not a real good gps app for android yet.
In my case, in Argentina, I use Sygic, Navitel (you can adapt Garmin maps to it) or Ndrive. Each of one has it pros and cons... try them!
Cheers,
Lucas.

Wrong! Igo works on Android and IMHO is the best navigational SW ever! For Motorola, it's called motonav You just need to upload content and license in a folder called motonav on your SD card, then get the motonav.apk and install. Just did it a few hours ago. Works like a charm.

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
