hello everyone!
i am going to buy a gps mouse today, the hollux 236, and now i am wondering, what you think are the best apps to use with a gps mouse!?
most of all i am interessted in navigation software, like TomTom for example. but what are the alternatives to TomTom? what's your recommended nav software?
i would also like to know, what other usefull apps there are to use with a gps mouse...?
any info is appreciated!
thx in advance,
krz
I would definetly go for tomtom navigator 6, its the best ive ever used simple yet effective
IGO - the best for driving navigation
Wich country
You will not always have the choice because not always navigation software have the maps for the countries you want.
for exemple, Tom Tom is a lot for Europe and USA and Mapking for Asia
I am using three on my Artemis:
iGO 2006 Plus with the lastest Portuguese/Spanish maps (2007.07);
TOMTOM 6.032 (8351)with the latest Iberia maps (675.1409);
ROUTE66 Navigate7 with the latest Iberia maps (Q4, 2006 i think);
Both TOMTOM and iGO work better than Route66 because R66's maps are very old and i can't find anything more recent. My favourite is TOMTOM because of its ease of use and overall speed starting up/navigating. iGO has got the looks and the maps are as good (or seem to be) as TOMTOM's.
I also have a TOMTOM GO V3 standalone navigator with version 7 of both the software and maps (Iberia Version 710) and those are way more updated than version 675.1409. Also it has much more detail on the maps.
All this text to say that if TOMTOM7 comes out for the PDAs it's gonna be a winner for me.
i would say garmin...now there is the new mobile xt prog for free for ppc...correct maps for europe...including deep city view
thx for the answers!
i think, i will give iGo Plus a shot....
what other cool tools should i get for working with the gps...?
i once heard of tools to programm or configure the gps mouse...?
interessted in more tips and tricks,

good choice !
I use Igo and I like it more than Tomtom.
the next version (Igo 8) is coming soon and I was very impressed with the demo I've seen.
But is there any good GPS software with Middle East maps. I love navigation but dont have any GPS Software.
If anyone of you have a GPS software with Middle East Maps, so please can you give me.
Thanks

Where do you get this sw free?
http://www.garmin.com/garmin/cms/site/us
you can visit that site for further information, i guess garmin works the same way tomtom does, so you can get the software for free and maybe a test map and the only thing you need to buy are the maps. i didn't look up the price for a us / north america map now, because i am at work and the garmin site is really slow.
Hi guys,
I'm living in Vietnam, where TOMTOM doesn't work (no maps). Could you please tell me how to replace TOMTOM by another software as the default navigation service? For example, in Asia, MapKing should be useful more than TOMTOM. Thanks so much!
for me
i want to change that to garmin
celice: It isn't possible for Garmin, look here to find why http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530034
torrentonly thank you very sir ^-^
A little update for this. It actually is possible to use another navigation software, but some important steps must be made.
1) Navigation software must support command line options or have proper SDK (like TomTom or Garmin Mobile XT)
2) navipanel.exe and naviservice.dll must be debugged to find, how is MiddleLayerDLL handled
3) Code a new library, which will handle new navigation software via navipanel
I found some examples with Garmin SDK for visual studio. It looks quite simple and straightforward, but it has one big flaw. Garmin Mobile XT must be running to pass command to it.
Just a note. At this moment, there is no possibility to run other navigation software with NaviPanel.
garmin mobile xt
Garmin Mobile XT works fine for me
In the spanish version, the GPS software by default is CoPilot 7, Can you try it? But i think that there is no maps of there.
Regards!
Hi all.
Small guide for changing the "Navigator" Hardware-key:
1. Delete from folder with current navigator folder all files.
2. Install into this directory new GPS navigator application (or move all files into this folder)
3. Rename *.exe file on previuos exe name
I'm from Russia. I changed Navitel Navigator on GisRussa
You have to do this
HKLM\Software\HTC\NaviSW\
find this key MiddleLayerDLL that have a value NaviSWMiddle_CoPilot.dll
Change it in NaviSWMiddle_TomTom.dll
It works for garmin, too.
You have to substitute garmin to tomtom in the word
Make a soft reset and after garmin will be your default navi for all the applications (footprint, navipanel)
If you cannot find this key, you can create it, I just make it and works perfectly...
Hi,
i was wondering which navigation software you use on you diamonds?
I was using iGo8, I liked it, but after one trip when it started to give memory error and freeze, I decided to try TomTom.
I like TomTom, it's easy to use, but the thing is it doesn't have all good stuff for WM devices versions are stripped.
I use Navigon
i like iGO6 its better than iGO8
and it take less program memory
Which one is better ? Do not consider "fees or charges" , just in terms of performance,reability,gps accuracy etc.?
ofc igo8 not amigo! with gurjon skinns its amazing.. try it. copilot is like child tool comparerd to igo8+gurjon skin
None of them, but Navigon
IGO8 or Co-Pilot
IGO8 for sure. But try the new Dimka Theme. Awesome and very fast. But you have to have version 8.3.4.102680 which is optimized for HTC Leo. This version has contacts navigation via outlook contacts and a full screen. Its very fast and reliable. Tried Navigon but could not get the full screen working. And the settings in IGO and with the Dimka theme are more manageable. I'm not stating that Navigon is not good but it did not work for me.

I am using Sygic Aura, small lags in 3D maps, but its best navigation software on market ...
Hi there. I'm also a keen user of Sygic Aura and I haven't actually noticed any lags. Its really smooth and quite precise. I can recommend it with no doubt.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
big fan of regular Google Maps/Navigation here
edit: just realized you said greece no idea if google map/navigation is good there.
I use google maps and Sygic Aura , works great! not any lag of somekind.
google maps works great!
Personal preference is IGo and Sygic Aura isn't too bad either. But do you really need '3D' - is it not better to have an accurate plane 2d representation of the road ahead?
Still to try Sygic Mobile Maps and NDrive so can't comment on them.
Forget Navigon - untidy UI and routing is simply nonsensical.
I am using IGO8 and it works fine. I have maps for N.America, Costa Rica, Singapore, Philippines, and HK and they all work on my GB 2.3.2.
Navdroyd
I use Navdroyd , but its not really suitable for daily use. (not the best usability, house numbers, sometimes strange rout) but its with the cool & open source Open Streetmap map. But it is beeing constantly improved.
For daily use i think, google navigation is pretty good.

hi, does the igo8 you're using has working text to speech?
I dont use it much, so I just went into the settings to have a look. I have no selection for text to speech. Is that an add on or something?
