Hi Guys,
Thanks for lots of things on the website, I just got my mogul 2 days back and I am installing lots of app. One thing I really wanted was free GPS app. Now I liked msn live better then Google, specially as it was giving ding sound before turn. But I still wanted audibles. So, I downloaded nav4all. But it was pain in the xxx as it will only work some time. Even I kept google maps running in the back so it can lock but when I start nav4all app it will not lock. It only worked 2 times for 10 minutes.
So finally found following app and it worked like champ. I will give outdoor try tomorrow bit it was easy to install, good clear sound. Lots of setting and 2 different option to save bandwidth. I did not have to do anything to even lock on the satellite. It just worked. I tried some entering address and all that stuff and it worked great. I will let you all know more tomorrow after some test. Give it a shot as it is free.

how did you get this to work i get an apply screen. i will look deeper into this im also using the mogul. thanks for exposing this app though
same
ive got the same screen
Did y'all follow instructions and write down the username and password they put up on the download page for Windows Mobile?
Apply Screen
Make sure to write down your user name & password, record it from the site download screen.
Pretty cool
Very cool, and it's free, but mine says it's Alpha version, and it looks like it does not have all the features it claims to have for other mobile devices. Also, for some reason, it does not show areal view (I am in Florida, USA). But I like the idead of hearing voice directions. I'll let you know later when I am on the road.

Hi Guys, I tried it today going to work and it worked really really good. I think UI is better then my Magellan. It shows POI's nearby and text is really clear. Route calculation was really quick. I am pretty much impressed. Now one problem is if you zoom fully and driving on the highway, it sometimes lags on refresh but if you are one level less zoom it works good. Man this is too good to be true but it works and the voice pretty loud. As this is just alpha version I think they should be able to improve it more.
This is too good to be true
I know it's alpha, but I have a few issues:
- US Maps are old - didn't have my area which is over four years old.
- Keep having to enter username/password each time I start - no way I'm going to remember that every time.
- doesn't remember settings (imperial vs. metric, etc.)
Anyone else having these issues?
Installed, ran...unimpressed
I don't really see the point for this app in the U.S. I don't know how LiveSearch and Google maps work in other countries....but this app gave zero new features...in fact, the aforementioned worked better.
In my humble opinion, US buyers, move on.

I don't know why you say that, it is not like you are paying anything for the app. It is free, gives you voice prompt. If you are like me who has unlimited data, you don't worry about updating maps as they will be always updated and it just works.
Also it has an no satellite option which will just give you direction arrows and voice prompt in which it will download map for the whole route so, even if you are going to the place where there is no data service available you will still able to navigate as long as you are on the course and as I said it worked much better then I expected.

No, I have to enter username only once and also I don't have to enter setting again. Seems like you have some write permission issue as it just to storing some values to say, don't need to enter password and other setting. I also have my favorites saved. I use it on HTC Mogul.
Just d\l it an looks good. Demo plotted course well but no audio. Tried WM5 and WM6 and sound is greyed out on the options menu. Anyone getting turn by turn audio?

I am getting turn by turn audio. I did not have to make any changes for that.
I tried this app about a week or so ago and it didn't work on my Mogul -- I just tried it again (downloaded the "now available" WM6 version) and it indeed works... Map coverage in my area is a bit weak, but I'm going to give the app a workout and see how it goes...
The price is right...
I tried this on my Mogul yesterday and it drove me absolutely insane! The maps for my area is seriously outdated and the navigation on the map is painfully annoying. Love the "Turn left at next intersection" voice though. Microsoft's Live Search is still my "free" GPS program of choice.

Thanks for the info. I only tried it in the demo mode and I'll take it on the road tomorrow to check it out. I may be one of the only ones, but I love Nav4All, also free, and doesn't need an active internet connection after the course is plotted so I figure I'll play around with this one over the weekend...
Good stuff considering it's free...but i prefer the tomtom over this any day! but then again in the free category this beats google and live only because it gives you turn by turn directions! In googlemaps u take the wrong turn, the course stays plotted but your blue dot goes awry! GoogleMaps doesn't even warn you that you've gone the wrong way!
need help
when i go to the menu map center on gps. all i keeps on saying is No Sattelites.
is there a way to turn on my gps on my Titan

Do you have a Radio ROM that has the GPS enabled? If you're Verizon, for example, you're going to need to flash a new ROM. There's plenty of discussion on how to do so here and on PPCGeeks.
Hi All
I've only just started using the 'GPS Photo' option on my HD2.
..and I think I found a glitch. Maybe someone can enlighten me.
I took a photo using the GPS photo option and when I uploaded it to Flickr...it shwed me somewhere else!!! The camera seemed to log the data as
52.390350 0.690536
whereas I'm near
52.390350 -0.690536
..so it seems to have missed out the minus sign in the embedded data in the photo.
I don't know that much about GPS and the workngs of it, but I wanted to use it on holiday to show off where I am! Clearly this is a bit of a worry if it's embedding the wrong data.
Thanks in advance
Edit: What I've noticed is that the twitter client on the HD2 and another piece of software I bought all report the location as correct ie they show the missing minus sign. It seems it's only the GPS Photos that's getting it wrong
Steve
Hi!
Did you find a solution to create geotagged pictures?
By the way, I've alread posted to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=613026
But there's a strange point: If I understood correctly, your problem is about the longitude, while my problem is related to latitude.
Oh! I just saw that the pictures taken from the footprint program are not that bad and their GPS location is correct. They too have 5MP, but we can control almost nothing about the camera settings. :-(
GeoTagging
No, I didn't solve it. I just gave up using the GPS Photo option and use Twitter client instead

Where is the GPS photo option on the default camera? I did the registry tweak but i don't see it.
I just saw this on PocketNow.com
http://pocketnow.com/software-1/bing-for-windows-mobile-now-has-real-navigation-features
I'm downloading to see for myself. AWESOME!!!!
I am also downloading to give it a shot! Let see what happens!
I downloaded and it appears to work! BAD-ASS! I will give it a shot on my way home to fully test it out!!!!!!! Awesome!
working good for me
I am pretty impressed. I think this is the first app Microsoft has done right. The only pisser is I just bought my copilot lisence friday.
seems like it's taking forever to find my location. What gives?

Didnt work in a building for me, I had to be outside. I also had trouble with the avoid traffic option. I have to say though that its really well done, works great, also love the voice input.
I like that you can even listen to the music on your storage card! The voice (whom I shall affectionately refer to as sugar lips from here on out) was a little drowned out by the music, but I probably wouldn't listen to it if I didn't know where I was going already.
I can't believe this.
Bing actually replaced Google Maps on my phone.
Tried on T-Mobile HD2 (US) ... very slow in finding your location. After that - very slow in recognizing voice input ... like 3 time slower then Google But it is alternative

No such problems with my HD2, updates location quickly. Also this is still marked as beta, hopefully any bugs will be fixed and more enhancements will be in the final version.
I've noticed that when I use the voice input, it does take some time, however it does seem to be very accurate when using voice input. The voice navigation does seem a bit distorted to me, anyone else have the same impression? Overall I'm really impressed still, and Bing has replaced Google maps for my phone as well!
Rerouting bug
I tried this on the way home yesterday and it worked great at first. At one point on the way home, it had told me to go a way that is actually longer for me, so when I made a different turn, it did a few "rerouting" calculations and came up with new routes. However, a few blocks later it tried rerouting again and I noticed my screen had locked. I unlocked it and found the bing app had just closed itself out.
Hopefully this is an isolated incident.
I posted the cab in the other HD2 thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=679761
I should have posted it here since I am a TMOUS HD2 user.
I have also experienced the constant rerouting every time I stop. I think the app cant figure out which direction I am facing unless I am moving. Sometimes when I stop, the arrow reverses direction, then the app recalculates because I am facing the other way.
Plus I dont see any caching of maps. This causes map refreshing problems when the signal is lost, or drops from 3G to edge.
But it FREE!!
Used it today (downloaded early yesterday). It is the real deal. The voice is a little crusty at first but then it sounds a little more pleasing to the ear after a while. Now I hate I downloaded (aka BOUGHT) Copilot Live 8, could've saved the 29.99. All in all, the Bing nav as a FREE Nav is good to go and no more waiting on Googoo Nav to be ported to WinMo 6.5 for us.
Cheers for this one MS. (But only this one for now, you know how you do )
I can't even download it. DNS Errors up the ying-yang
Coming from a G1 and Google Navigation, I'd say the voice is better on this but Google Nav is waaayy better (3D view and the map rotates based on where you're headed). Other than that, the bing Nav is definitely usable.
I tried it twice... searching for restaurants using voice search and hitting navigate... it took about 5 secs to find my position and calculate the route which is good.
I took a wrong turn and the recalculation took less than 5 secs, so thats good too.
So overall its nice but the map on the phone is always pointing north so it'll be a bit confusing for noobs.

I am on TMOUS and this works great! Finally!
I did a search for my home address (inside my home) and then requested directions to this address and was told that the end address needed to be different than the start address.....seems to work great!
used it pretty much all day here in nyc.. Worked great. Even had it reroute me a few times on purpose... Did it fast with no real lag what so ever... Looks like they are gettin er done...
Sorry in advance if these have already been pointed out and/or fixed.
I'm aware that this is a leaked beta but i'm having some strange issues.
Mainly being the market not downloading apps. I can browse the internet, browse the market, but nothing will download.
Anyone know of a way to fix this?
Also, i was quite disappointed with the fact that they did next to nothing to the absolutely terrible camera. The shutter speed appears to have improved *slightly* but pictures are still far too sharp and over saturated.
On the other hand, i do like the 720p filming
Another thing i noticed is that interacting with the live wallpapers is way off. When you press the 'Nexus' live wallpaper, the actual 'hit' is almost an inch out. Not a huge deal, just something that's annoying me.
On the plus side, the live wallpapers are incredibly smooth. A lot smoother than on my Nexus, god knows how dell managed that!
But my main hate, the one that annoys me to no end, is that you can now only have 6 icons in landscape. Wtf was the point in that dell? You took the best thing about this phone and made it worse!
Apart from alllll those things, i'm absolutely loving the 2.1 update (especially the dialler) but because of the above mentioned things i'm getting tempted to go back to 1.6. I need to download things dammit!
Another 2 issues that bothered me were the crap keyboard which is VERY slow and if you rush it you get mistypes, sometimes I have to press the same button twice as it did nothing the first time and I get a spelling mistake in every word, the keyboard is messed up.
Anyway to get the superior keyboard from the previous 1.6 with the lovely numpad?
Secondly, there are some problems with the wallpaper/homescreens. There is no way to add or remove them, seems I'm stuck with 6.
I tried to set a simple wallpaper on say screen one and it stretches right outside the screen and fills all 6 screens up, why??!!
I am using the same wallpapers before that are specially for the streak and are set at 800X480 and it stretches one pic across all screeens and it looks distorted, why?
Before I upgraded, I could go to screen one, put a wallpaper, it would fit fine and only in one screen, not fill the other ones too.
Can ANYONE think why this is or even a fix to this problem?
At the moment I have more problems with 2.1 than 1.6...
Glad to see I'm not the only one with these issues. I can't stand the new keyboard, driving me mad but I'll survive. I don't like the new layout of the icons and the fact you can no longer have multiple backgrounds is a shame. Also I've noticed certain widgets just won't sit in the centre of the home screens any more.
I'm hoping because this is a leak that Dell haven't added their personal touches yet and that this will come when they go official otherwise I'll be a sad panda!

Yeah, I guess we have to stick with what we have until it's officially released.
At least we have SOME improvements...
The portions you mention I have not had. It sounds like you have a few issues with your install.
With regards to we everthing else, 2.1 ain't perfect but its a tonne better than the 1.6

Of course by portions I mean problems....the swype keyboard although better its still far from perfect

Hi Meltus
If your Google E-Mail account is Googlemail change it to gmail by logging in through your computer and use the option to change it to a gmail address and that has fixed the Market problems for me and some others hope it works for you.
Marc
Any one else having issues that when talking on the phone with headphones in if you press the lock button it hangs up the call? Found something that drives me even more mad than the keyboard lol.
Not sure what I am doing wrong , but I can't seem to use any 3rd party keyboards ? They install OK , I can select them , but then when I go to use them , the Dell one pops up. (Any ideas ? )
The only issue I noticed , is that the Sleep/wake button stops working properly occasionally , instead of putting the device to sleep , it dims the screen , but the screen stays on ,
Not sure what is going on here , I think the phone may "think" its asleep , as the live wallpaper stops moving , but the screen is definately still awake.
The only way out is to reboot by taking the battery cover off !
Seems an isolated problem I don't have any problem downloading just that some games wont work - more importantly launcherpro looks very strange with tiny icons! Spread a across the screen with Hugh gaps.

i have had EVERY issue above! its beta so im not going to complain but i just hope its much better once the ota arrives

However, I do believe if you change to Gmail from Googlemaill, any apps you bought with your Googlemail account are NOT carried over.
Hence you have to purchase again, this is why I haven't made the switch yet, until that issue is resolved I will be staying as Googlemail.

Exactly the same problem here.
And to change keyboards, you select it and long press a text box (like in messages) then you pick the keyboard you want from there.
Anyway, i fixed my market problem by changing my e-mail from 'googlemail' to 'gmail' (thanks doggman) and then wiping the phone. Not sure which made it work, or whether it was a combination of both, but it's working good now
Issues I've noticed so far: (Maybe nitpicking but I'm comparing it to all my other Androids)
- Live Wallpaper could be smoother. It's pretty smooth but on such a large screen, little glitches are very noticeable.
- Though the keyboard is a lot more comfortable to use without the numpad throwing the right thumb off, the responsiveness is gone from the previous keyboard. But I'm sticking with it cause its alot better looking than 'Better Keyboard' or 'Smart Keyboard'
- No pinch-to-zoom on pictures in the gallery...very disappointing
- Pinch-to-zoom for maps is there, but responsiveness needs work. Almost as bad as Blackberry Torch's pinch-to-zoom. HAHAHA
- Photos seem more saturated than when it was running 1.6. Even affects photos when being used as 'Picture Frame' widget.
- Aside from the saturation of pictures though, the screen display overall is impressive. Quality has improved, sharpness has improved, the HD-feel is there for the home screens. I could even say that it is comparable to the iPhone 4, and better than the Galaxy S display. Theres room for improvements though... better font for icon titles, increase sharpness, less colour overflow.

Hello,
I found out that the only way to geotag photos is to enable "Use wireless networks" option. But with that option, the coordinates location is not very close to reality...
I tried only the option "Use GPS satellites", but no matter what I do, it cannot insert any location on the photos...
Yes, I have GPS "turn on" on the powerconfig, I have the Geo-tag photos option ON, I have GPS fix on other apps in about 4seg, I waited more than 30seg inside the camera app before taking a photo but nothing works... Resuming, I don't have any problem with GPS itself, except in the camera
For example on my hold Touch HD, when in the GPS camera mode, it displayed a blinking icon when trying a GPS fix and a stable icon after the fix.
Here I don't even get any indication that it's trying to get a GPS fix or whatever...
I feel that this is a downgrade... How can HTC let this happen??
Am I doing something wrong??
Does anyone have Geotagging with only the "Use GPS satellites" option ON ???
Hi. I too can confirm this issue.
Perhaps we should contact HTC about this?
I'm going to read the manual during my lunch break too on the off chance it might have some useful info ... I doubt it though ....
The manual only makes reference to the option on the camera app...
It was nice if people start to report this bug to HTC...
Please guys help HTC to make a better phone!!!
On the other day I sent a support ticket to HTC and they were fast replying...
But, as normally, they even didn't understand quite what was I talking about...
Here's the reply:
Which GPS navgation software are you using? Bear in mind that some GPS softwares require internet to get for you maps, maybet his is your case.. If you have any other inquiries, don’t hesitate to contact us again. Please note that you can contact us via support line.

You can, http://contactus.europe.htc.com/wFrmMailLogin.aspx
But you have to enter my email...
But I think it's better to you to open a new ticket
The one that I have, I'm speaking with a person (a women for the matter) from HTC Iberia, and clearly she doesn't understand what I'm talking about...
I got the second reply and she came again with the story of GPS softwares, even TomTom she spoke... ROFTL!!!!
For the navigations softwares, we recommend using TOMTOM, Copilot or Google maps. But bear in mind that Google maps are considered as GPRS hungry cause the maps are being viewed online. On the other hand, TOMTOM and Copilote download the maps to the phone that's why if you are using Google maps, wirelss network option should be ticked.. That's why we were asking which navigation software are you using.

I asked on the Whirlpool forum (Australian technology forums) and very little response too. In fact very few people even bothered to read the issue.
I guess geo tagging photos is not so important to people
I will raise a ticket with HTC Australia and see how that goes.
Now I got a message from the women from HTC Iberia saying it's a limitation from the system!!! ahaha
I only wish a I had the possibility to test this on another android HTC.
Does anyone knows if on other android HTC phones this happens??
Strange. Now that you mentioned it I too have that problem. However I did manage to get accurate GPS location on photos. Don't remember exactly how but I think that after taking the photo I tried to locate the place on the map and updated the coordinates from there.
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
I have managed to make one of my photos accurately geo tag. I was in a car using Google Navigation at the time, so maybe that is why it was able to capture the correct coordinates.
This weekend I will be seeing two of my friends who also have Android phones (Nexus One and SE Xperia X10 mini) and I also have an HTC Magic. I will attempt to test on all of them provided the weather here in Sydney clears up >.<
Ok, I think I also got it...
I first opened GMaps, waited for the gps fix and then took a picture. I finally got Geotag only using the GPS satellites!!!
This is so stupid... and a backwards step...as I said before, I was able to do this only inside the photo app with my old Touch HD (in windows mobile) without opening previous any gps app...
I received my DHD 2 days ago.
As mentioned earlier in this thread I'm missing the icon shown i camera-mode witch indicates GPS-fix.
I've also tried confirming a GPS-fix with an 3rd party app (GPS Status) before shooting.
Just 1/4 second after exiting camera-mode, I can see the GPS-icon in the Android status bar. This indicates that the GPS is indeed initialized, but the camera-software doesn't fetch any information.
I'm posting a e-mail to HTC Support about this. I've already sent them a query regarding the "/INIT" -issue.
Hi,
I´m new.
Have the same problem.
What is the status? HTC has said what?
No reply from HTC yet.
Maybe it helps if several customers report in the issue.
I also created a ticket. Let's see what comes for a response.
Update: I've gotten GPS-tag on several images now. But still the tagging can fail even though I've tested the GPS-reception just seconds before.
I'm still missing the informative GPS-icon in camera-view...
Update:
From HTC Support:
It is true that the GPS-indicator is not visual and for that reason it is hard to know if the GPS signal is locked. I will log this in our systems, and hopefully there will be a future update that will fix this issue. To be sure it’s turned on, go in on camera - push menu - and see if GEO-tag photos are switched on.

Do bear in mind that if you're indoors, GPS Satellites may not be detected. I have noticed that when trying to use a car navigation program inside my house (Testing purposes only....I hope) there are no or only 1 satellites detected. However, upon going in the car and using my phone while my dad is driving, GPS boosts to several satellites and pictures are all tagged with GPS location and street level info too!
