Does M$ still support the old version of live search some of us used with WM5 .. the free standing app that has icons for "categories" "map" "directions" and "traffic" ... I installed the old cab I had lying around, and it works fine .. however when I was poking around on the web to download it again (just to see if there was a later version) I could not longer find it.... the Live Search for Moblie page now installs simply a search window into WM6 ... and I actually liked the old interface.
Yes they still support it. I'm on WM6 (XDA Live 0.10) and I get to the download page fine.
If you have a problem just browse to that page on a PC or try the direct link
http://mobile.search.live.com/client/download/wm/LiveSearch.cab
can't find livesearch anywhere. anyone know where to find it?
here you go........
I think this is what you were looking for.
hey, thanks a lot! it works nicely. anyone able to tell me the shortcuts for zooming in and out... that's okay, i'll figure it out. thanks
is microsoft done supporting this? is it getting phased out? will it not get updated as the streets are added?
On the same note...
Anyone know of a way to add cities to the traffic module of the program?
i was looking on the market for a good gps navigation for my galaxy s when i saw the galaxy tab navigon free program so i tried to install it and it works great here in Australia.I not sure if this is common knowledge but is was news to me ,once the programed installed it downloaded Australia map
i have 2.2 rooted phone but looks like its only for Australia & NZ
doesn't run on rooted 2.1.
error says it's intended for specific devices and cannot run on my device.
:-(
Could you provide a link to it ?
Sent from my Intergalactic Supah Dupah Spaceship¡¡!!!
just look for navigon in the market
Doesn't run on non rooted 2.1 sgs either
Not everyone can see it on the market so can you copy it from data/app folder and post here?
Sent from my i9000M
how do i do that?
Its £50 in the UK.
Root explorer and go to data/app folders and find navigon

Using both Appbrain and the Market app, I can't find it. Appbrain shows a paid app for the US and Market doesn't find anything.
Is this limited to certain countries or something? I'm in South Africa.
Would really appreciate a free Navigation app instead of the hacked Google Navigation...
It keeps fcín on connecting to server. Rooteded, 341MB rom with al tweaks en ext4 lagfix
It is only free in Australia and New Zealand. App is xcalled MobileNavigator Samsung and maps are provided by Navteq. App is intended for Galaxy Tab.

We're all sorted then!
I live in New zealand but can't find it on the market.
I guess it's cos I have JPO XEU firmware.
Can anyone please post the app here?
I hear it's free in New Zealand.
thanks
Don't see it in the market, only have Navigon System Check.
free nav
if you cant get this to work try brut maps. its a hacked version of google nav that says your in the usa so it works in aus
Awesome. It's downloading the maps for me now Running JPA (Darky's steel mod) with Optus CSC applied and original OPS product code.
I'll dump and upload the apk later today if anyone wants it (it probably (?) only works in australia/nz though).

Yep keen as. Can't see it on market, JPP doc v7.6.2
I am going to the US in two weeks and would like a GPS Nav app that works without a data connection. So far I have looked at reviews for Navigon, NavDroyd, and CoPilot.
What is the best standalone GPS navigation app for Android? Is Navigon worth the higher price? What other ones have I missed?
Copilot for me
If you can, try out the new version of Sygic.
It's called Sygic Aura.
It's just awesome, very good navigation software, well developed, simple to use and extraordinary graphics.
Try it, you will love it!
i tried Sygic last week on my galaxy s and worked great
I got the copilot US special for USD 4.99 and tested it 2 weeks ago on a trip to NY. in the taxi from JFK to Manhattan it worked just great!
also - you can move both the maps and the app to the external SD thus saving space for apps on internal memory (this requires a simple trick but there is a recent thread for that here describing it - search for it).
also tried NDrive and Aura - Aura's UI is strange, don't like it and NDrive is simple but OK but can not move app or maps to external - this is a no go for me. also got the free navigon Australia special but could not test it (only maps for Australia and NZ - and you can not explore the maps if you don't have a GPS signal in that area - bad)
good luck
I use navigon, copilot and igo (yes, it works on high res devices ) all work great
I've tried allmost all of them. But allways end up using Navigon 3.5. The look is clean and simple. Cant say anything bad about it.
Sygic is a great android tool with the look and feel of TOMTOM (the benchmark in navigation).
XDA App
CoPilot for me . I had it on my WinMo device and when I switch to Galaxy I thought they wouldn't have Android version , but there it is.
Very happy with it.
I hear Sygic Aura isn't for AUSTRALIA. What is the best for AUSTRALIAN territories?

How did you get thee 4.99 special?
used market enabler app to put myself in the US and tehre it was in the market - a special deal they had for some weeks. not sure if they still have it. with Docs latest rom I can not search the market at the moment - will let you know ASAP.
still on market for 3.99 euros
Thanks Chris. I shall try them when the gps of the SGS works better with the 2.2 update.
Copilot is good but with IgoMyWay, we have a 3D view with relief... Very good!

The latest Google maps works perfectly in Australia right to your door with step by step direction list and turn by turn *voice* navigation and then you can use all the Google services to locate petrol station, restaurants etc - I was using copilot but i think it was a bit bloated and sometimes buggy on my samsung galaxy s. I honestly can't believe how good google maps does the job

Does this version allow you to also use maps from outside the US?
Standalone?
Hello,
Are these apps really standalone, I mean no data plan needed? I saw some are asking a monthly fee also.
Thank you,
Liviu

Hope it helps.
Somehow i can't instal thos apps on my omnia 7 :/
edit: Nvm it's working now
Thanks. I decompiled them to look if there was some driver access we had not known before on Samsungs. But unfortunately there isn't. The interfaces in the Diagnosis app are the most advanced implementation we know now so far.
I haven't tried to install the apps. Are they any good?
This looks like most of these apps are form t-mobile and some samsung ones.
The t-mobile apps suck though Only the navigation app is good but you can only use it with a t-mobile sim inside...

The whole homebrew stuff in this forum for Samsung is from these apps (the DLLs inside them).
So people have been using them for 3 months now...

I did crack the navigation app sometime, but it's only good for Germany, Austria and either the Czech Republic or Switzerland (I can't remember which) iirc.

Yeah, I read the post and wanted to put it on my phone as I need the maps for germany but decided to wait for the 1st update from ms. Since they said that they patched the hole for the jailbreak.
O2 germany will release a nav app from telmap sometime in the coming weeks I hope but I read that it will require data connection...
http://www.samfirmware.com/
Here is the new firmware KH1 for S8500, does someone try it ?
Have you seen better things ?
For me : Apps works (But fruit ninja and slice it Reset the phone when install... but it works after.)
Not so lag
New sounds since kg6
No allshare bug in mp3
Fb works but a bit long
Samsung apps bug sometimes (the app close it self and the wave lag if we forgot to turn on the wifi...)
...
I am currently downloading, I'll test later in the evening here (Greece).
I wonder why SamFirmware doesn't provide us with a changelog, along with the F/W.

Stathi did you find a greek csc for bada 2.0?

Not relevant, since SamFirmware has ROM testers that check the FWs before the uploading process. They always test and check the features and aspects of the ROMs.
If you remember,we had info & changelogs for the first two BADA 2.0.1 ROMs. (XPKG5 & XPKG6), but no info for the 3rd (XPKG7), just "a more stable release".
anyways..

no, I didn't. I had many hopes that the CSC "hacking" method ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179033 ) could give me the Greek lang, but since my testing came up with errors and the infamous "endless loop boot cycle", I reasoned that it's still too early for an OXC csc file to be found on the net.
I frequently check b_adaspain for an OXC csc for bada 2.0, but I really think it's still too early.
As with everything here in Greece, I'm sure that the Greek translation of Bada 2.0 will be at the bottom of the OS translators' list.
for more details about my testing, read my post on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16295265&postcount=28

Yes, more samsungapps programs are working, for example GPS programs or apps using camera (eg. Quick Qr Reader)
can we see spoof apps workin on bada 2
yes spoofing apps will be a new feature of bada 2.0, so everyone can steal apps, thats logical...
Short tested...
It seems they closed other stupid Security hole.
Maybe this FIX is also since newer JL2 Firmware... like KF3 and so on...
Will test.

Please understand, that bada Developer nor Samsung are "extreme" happy about Spoofing...
No bada Developer = 0 Apps
I hope you understand what I want to say...
To your Question...
It seems at this time all known holes to install commercial Apps are NOT working anymore in leaked 2.0 FW...
This means not, that bada 2.0 is now unbreakable...
Its NOT my intention to find new hole... From me also 0 support for "Spoofing".
Thanx for reading.
Maybe better now back to real topic.
Best Regards
That FW is really good
bada 2.0 is getting its own polish now
The comparability issues seems to be solved
Now no way to back to 1.2
I just hope that the missing features come back
Best Regards
what about 3g/signal strength for countries outside of europe? what diffrent options do you have in network mode. (eg GSM 900/1800 etc.)
thanks
changes since XPKG7 that I spotted:
- you can now disable the double tap activation feature for the Voice Recognition
- I feel the phone a bit more responsive than before
- at last, KIES via WiFi synchronization works flawlessly! (KIES v.2.0.2.11071_128) however, when you go to SamsungApps, KIES will pop a dialog warning you that app installation is not able over WiFi or Bluetooth. still... who cares! you can do it with the USB cable, or via the classic way (on Wave directly).
- screen rotation a bit faster!
- some apps that now work:
Fruit Ninja
BadaBox (DropBox client)
Smart Office (1.5.2 latest)
Bambuser
Quick QR Reader
