Sygic Drive 2010 GPS Software (Anyone Tried) - Desire Themes and Apps

As title states, has any one used this GPS software on the Desire????
http://www.sygic.com

I´m using it..
Yes i´m using it and i find that it´s better than all they other Nav´s to Android.

Good to hear, im thinking of geting this soon. It look the biz......
Does it store on the sdcard or internal?
Does it have spoken stree names?

It store the app on the intern mem but the cards and so on, on the card. (like they other ones)
Not sure what you mean with spooken streetnames

Some GPS software say....turn left into desire avenue, then turn right into htc way............
Do you know what i mean?

I've been using Navigon since i bought the desire and it's working flawlessly, gonna try this sygic drive

The software is pretty good.
A few Cons:
Low resolution - Blurry look on desire
No way to make it personal - no other colour settings, cars and so on.
Seam to have a hard time syncing contacts - cant navigate to contact in your contact book.

Just wait and see Sygic Aura! It's out now on iPhone with hardware accelerated graphics and it looks incredible. It's coming soon to the Android platform, but I don't know if it will be accelerated on that too.

Sygic 's not compatible on my Desire. The resolution is not compatible (it stays in a corner of the phone). Do you have a workaround for this?

REV A and GPS Nav ROM update watch

OK, the rumored date is Jan 28th ... anybody know more G2 ??
I haven't heard anything official yet. I wish it would have come out before Tuesday since I will be going out of town and I could have tested it. I'll be back by the 28th, but I'll still be happy if its released by then. Hopefully they've thoroughly tested it and there won't be many/any bugs.

The GPS is just enabling the chip in the phone. You will need another app to actually use it. You could pay monthly for Telenav, which would use your internet connection to download maps as you drive. You could buy iGuidance, TomTom, or a similar program and load all of your maps onto your SD card. iGuidance will announce the street names, TomTom will just say "Turn left in 1 mile". This should make it work with Google Maps and Live Search as well. You can get directions off of these programs, but its not voice guided.
Check out this YouTube video - the author has comments "off" do you know exactly which software this is ??

Honest question/comment:
Everything I've read and seen in the last couple of months indicates the Titan would get RevA & GPS in early Q1, with the Vogue getting it several months later.
What did I miss?
TIA

Everything I have seen suggests that BOTH will be at the same time - do you have a recent article that says they will be staggered ??
I am referring to the Sprint Touch, and therefore the Sprint Mogul - everything I have read is that both will be at the same time ?

No, my data points are the standard rumors and speculation floating around all the sites. I've seen a number of comments about 'same time' recently, and a lot about 'staggered' in the couple of months preceeding that. The only published and official fact that I've seen anywhere in months is Sprint's statement about Mogul in Q1 on HTC's site and at BAW.
It would make perfect sense for them to be released at the same time - not that sense is something I would associate with Sprint! :=)
I will be thrilled if they both come out at the same time, and soon. I have given up on my Mogul and put it on a shelf pending a likely trade for a Treo 800w. My Touch is now my primary phone.

This is the new CoPilot Live 7 (http://www.alk.com/copilot/). I have this one also. The software is nice (but I haven't tried it on the Touch). The maps in my area are out-dated compared to iGuidance v4. CoPilot also doesn't announce street names, iGuidance is the only one that does this. ALK said they plan on releasing an update to CoPilot to make it announce street names though, I was never given a time frame.
january 28th is the rumored release for the Moguls GPS/REV.A release, the touch is not set to get a ROM update to enable such until at least Q2 2008.
This may sound stupid, but I'll ask anyway.
I have a Garmin GPS (Nuvi250) in my wifes car, is there anyway to pull the maps from that and use them on the Touch?

I'll clarify.
Once they release the update, if it allows us to use the GPS, could I take the maps that are on the Nuvi and load them onto the Vogue?
no you might not be able to use garmin maps as they are very heavily copyrighted and protected. you cannot even use maps from one garmin device to another
top of that .. u can't use it ..
but u can load from underground web ..
it is impossible to load from the map from nuvi to your pda ..

What is your source - rumors or actual fact ??
Can anyone else confirm this - Touch not at the same time as the Mogul ???
That was my understanding based on what I have read as well. I hope to be proven wrong.
so just because the mogul came out first they're getting the update first?
this is bull****. sprint/htc's logic is ****ing trash.
sorry for the foul language but this just got me flamed. If iPhone v2 comes out within the next 4-5 months (thats what I'm hearing or something like that) and if that **** comes with all the features I need/want... then bye bye HTC.
well i hope it is soon, i would RUV to have this pupppy havin GPS. I mean the latency for gaming will be a nice improvement and FPS games will be playable via that mobile web, but GPS via tomtom and google maps will be [email protected]
well i guess the 28th wasnt the date?

Gps navigation for Cyprus!

hey guys I tried copilot 8 and I am going to install sygic this afternoon. but I doubt it will have Cyprus maps, does any of you guys know a program with Cyprus support ?
There is a company that makes Greece and Cyprus specific maps for sygic called creative image.
Don't ask me if they are good though, you' ll have to try them out for yourself.
google creative image greece and you ll find them.
I heard from a friend that there's this app called IGO that works in Cyprus. He used to use it on Windows Mobile but after a quick google search it looks like its available for Android too!
Please try it out and tell me how it is
yes I know it too but I haven't found it anywhere yet
ok problem solved I found that sygic has Cyprus mqps and actually the whole program is awesome. thanks for any help
I also use sygic for cyprus but its been 4-5 days that is not working... what about yours?
I installed sygic on android but it doesn't have any Cyprus maps.. Did you get the maps from somewhere else?
Thanks
iGo has maps for Cyprus, and it works well too.

i used to use iGO on my HD2, but now and after a desire, and a desire hd, i have a sensation. locations is the best GPS for android imo atm, but it has no cyprus maps, so i ve searched for another one. a friend who owns a desire uses sygic mobile maps 10. says he's satisfied but i ve witnessed it having signal issues and the maps aren't 100% up to date. so my question is, are you referring to iGO for android or windows ? if you 're referring to an android version, which one's that, and have you got the compatible for it cyprus map. i 'd be grateful if you could share it.
I used iGO in Poland and I must say that at least for me i t read lest accurate app. The best maps in my opinion has google maps, copilot and sygic aura/mobilemaps.
For now I use google maps

Sorry it took so long to get back to you.
Yes i was talking about the Android version. I have iGo 8 i think it is,with maps from 2010 so its fairly recent.

I`m using iGO 8.4.2.139242 with cyprus map, on HTC desire, works great.
Higly recommended.

Yes it works everywhere when you have internet access everywhere. But this is Cyprus. 3G network is too expensive and you cannot find free wireless just anywhere. I have been searching for Cyprus GPS for my Motorola Atrix 4G and i couldn't find anything. Even for paid software! Any ideas guys??
Sygic aura is the best for Greece...test it a little bit in holiday!!!
Sygic is very good for greece indeed!
Does Greece map contain cyprus?

Good Navigation App for 2.2?

Is there a good, working, navigation app out there for 2.2 yet?
JD
I would like to know this as well... Copilot are apparently working on an update, Sygic Mobile Maps 10 hasn't got back to me yet (currently runs but with soooooooo much lag)... and Navigon is reported to kind of work, but looses gps alot?
So far my best option is Google Navigator... it does a bloody good job... only problem is the phone gets very hot - 45c yesterday on a 40 minute drive but I think this is what happens with most apps!?

Just downloaded... looks good so far... I will give this a spin, thanks
NDrive any good?
It's sad that Sygic has lag in 2.2, I wonder if it will be the same when the official release comes out...
I downloaded the Ndrive 7 day trial and its not bad, I like the horizon panning, although the UI is a little more cluttered than Sygic. I'm tempted to buy it at 43 Euro's ($63.28 AU) but the other half of my mind says wait until the official Froyo is release and maybe Sygic will be back to normal. There are rumours that google has OTA'd an update for Froyo to it's employee's :

Nothing!!! thats been 6 days now and no reply
Ndrive seems to work well... I just don't like the announcements... they seem to tell you your next turn around 1/2 mile away from the junction, which is stupid! Personally I'm not buying it and will keep holding out for copilot which I found to be perfect
Is there a comparison chart ? I'M NOT sure wich navigationsoftware is the best and I want the best
Sent from my HTC Desire
I ended up buying Ndrive cause of urgency as it seemed the only option atm. I found this http://gpsreviewer.wordpress.com/2009/07/16/second-and-lastsemifinal-ndrive-vs-sygic-drive/ but a copilot comparison is missing. One the same blog there are a few other comparisons, I'm not sure how relevant they are to android specifically froyo. I also found http://iphonetunes.net/index.php/full_article/comments/routes_compared_-_copilot_vs_navigon_vs_igo_vs_sygic_vs_tomtom/ which compares routing for a few apps, but is for the iphone. Functionality differs slightly between devices, and I would call either comparisons scientific studies, rather reasonable guides.

brut maps navigation works in Australia though last I checked, there was a slight lag. As well as that, I don't like the dark background of the navigation app.
Any news about IGO Android for hi res devices (like the Desire)?
does Google Navigation work in Belgium and mainland Europe? And does the phone really gets very hot using Google Nav when driving for example on a 3 hours journey?

Galaxy s GT-i9000 [europe] with Ndrive 11

Dear members:
I have Ndrive 11[gps software] in my galaxy s ,if you have any questions about it please feel free to ask away.
pros:
new interface, simplified
super fast gps lock ,less than 5 seconds!
Weather forecast
new share feature for facebook ,favorites,my location, etc
support for foursqare.
google places search within app.
cons:
The above features in blue text crash the app when trying to log in,not a deal breaker but never the less i would like it to work.
But compared to the versions that i have in windows mobile devices it is miles better.
greetings! i have Ndrive 10, i can't find Ndrive 11 on android market...how does it work? can i upgrade using the same maps or i have to pay again? thanks!

I got it from the market after trying a test version ,and yes new maps, and you have to pay for it again.

it is available to Italy, just use the Ndrive word in the market not ndrive 11,
a list of contries\regions will come up.
about the facebook problem etc....
Ndrive support just told me that a fix will be out inthe coming days.
lucky for me a use ndrive 10 in other device, but it should be an upgrade option, i must stress that when i bougth the app it was not listed on ndrive website yet.
how do u like ndrive? im thinking of trying it
i see, this time main program is given together with maps...again they should give an upgrade option with a discount to whom already bought Ndrive 10 (in my case i bought all europe maps). i will not give my money for ndrive 11 to pay again for ndrive 12 and so on wtf. thanks for your answers OP.

To be honest the reason i got it is that Ndrive is the only gps software for android that offer the most features at the moment plus it is the only one that has maps for the island i come from, Madeira.
personaly a love Igo8 but so far is only available for windows mobile.
I also trying Aura sygic, now this software is allot more polished than ndrive but it does not have the google feature that i love in ndrive.
Sorry ... but IGo MyWay is available for Android. Try a search for "iGOMyWay v8.4.2.139242 for Android"
I've using NDrive (10) on my SE Xperia X10i since last summer.
I find the gui a bit clumsy, but still I think it's ok.
I agree with regards to their upgrade policy!
I received the following answer today:
Dear Costumer,
Thank you for contacting NDrive Support.
While acquiring a NDrive product, the customer acknowledges that is acquiring a life-time licence for the product as it is presented in the date of purchase. The licence is only valid to a unique device (non-transmissible) and any map update or software upgrade may have costs associated to it.
We will soon have available a free V11 upgrade (software only), which will be available through Android Market. When it is available, you will be notified on your device.
Cumprimentos / Best Regards
NDrive Support

To be honest, I think this sucks! I was NOT under the impression that this was the case. In fact, since I'm quite certain I won't be using the same smartphone in a year, this is completely absurd!
What do you others think?!

That is a ridiculous policy and I'm not sure it is legal. When you buy software independent of hardware you should then have the right run it on whatever device you want. You should be allowed to reactivate the software when you get a new phone. I would never buy Ndrive if that is the way they operate.
I've tried Aura, Mobile Maps and Ndrive but the one i prefer is Copilot live, it just seems more stable than the rest.
Good, I'd like to know how to use the Ndrive folder on the SD, since many use maps, maps have 6GB of internal memory to occupy! Does elguem can help me!?
greetings

Not for me thanks! Too many adverse comments posted here and in Play store. In the absence of TomTom it has to be CoPilot Live for Android.

it maybe flakey, but the almost instant load is a cracking feature
Try clearing data, and redownloading the update again.
On another note, do try the latest version of Google Maps, with some of the labs addons (map downloads etc). Traffic updates work amazingly well with it, it's the best sat-nav I've ever had (apart from the fact that it doesn't know many one-way roads too well!)
It is not a good deal use HTC Location
It is not a good deal use HTC Location. If you plan to change you cell phone to a new one, don't buy any htc location license. The htc location license uses the cell phone IMEI. So, if you change your phone, you lose your licenses.
I talked with HTC about that... and they answered:
"If you changed to another phone, you need to buy the license again.. We are so sorry for your inconvenience. Actually there are some 3rd party GPS software on Android Market. You can have a look at them first."
Try using HTC Sync to update Locations to the latest map versions. Worked fine for me
