Try using MOTONAV instead.

Igo didn't released the wvga version for android, the builds that you find on the internet are extracted from Samsung Spica - hvga.

You need the files to place on the sd card ( you unrar the Motonav folder then copy to the root of the sd card, paste the map on the content/map folder, and you are set ).
You can probably find the files on the same place you found the .apk.. If not, google it ( I cant tell the link to it cuz xda isnt a fan of warez ).
[]`s
I installed the APK, started the app and it wrote "Installing Motonav" for a while and then quits.
Anyone got this working?
I'm using Igo Motonav on my HD2 Shubcraft. On the first boot it said installing then froze up. Each subsequent time it has worked fine.
I chose Motonav over IGO Myway because Motonav supports the full 480x800 resolution of this device.
Motonav uses the same .fbl maps as other IGO navigation software. I installed the .apk and filled in the content folder with maps from the Windows mobile version of Igo. The maps from IGO myway will also work with Motonav.
This is a very good solution for me because I can use navigation without mobile data charges. The maps are all individual files for each state. I like this because I can just add the states that I need so it takes up far less space on my sd card.

Where could you buy TomTom 7? I have Navigator 6 installed and can't find a way to buy Nav 7.
ok great thx, for all this aswers
could you please make screenshots of your navigation software?
how does it look on a 800x480 screen? resized, black bar, skewed, small icons.. ?
thanks.
There will be a Co-Pilot specific version coming out - http://blog.copilotlive.net/?p=208
I presume v7 works fine, but just doesn't make the most of the resolution.
Guys,
If you have a Navigation program 'successfully' working on your machine could you post it at the topic 'Programs/Utilites & Games ~ working on the Touch HD' here~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442663
Thanks.

How did you get the software up and running?
Whenever I try to start the program (installation works fine), it crashes after the starting screen saying the specific resolution can't be loaded/found.
Have you changed the sys.txt in any way?
Where did you get you version from.
Did you try the skin supporting 800x480 resolution?

TomTom Navigator 6 working on HD
Is it possible that someone can check if TomTom 6 Navigator is working on Touch HD because i want to use this application that i already have.
It wil make my choice very easy then!
Thanks
Why would HTC make a phone that, on the face of it, seems to have a lot of programs that just won't work, particularly my (ancient) TomTom6. And what about TCMP ? How would I run my videos ? I'm after one as well, but am now a little nervous that it may be false economy.
i cant get TomTom 6 to work. could be something that i am doing, anyone else having this problem?

Me too. I got my Touch HD this morning and tomtom 6 won't even start up. I think part of it is because of the screen resolution of the Touch HD
Garmin Mobile XT 5.00.20wp works fine (have only tried SA March 2008 mapset). So far no obvious problems experienced though I have not extensively tested everything.
I also loaded MobiTrak's HandyMAP Pro PPC V5.2 (Build 1129) with SA and USA maps. The program Handymap2.exe fails when switching maps, and once a map is opened it won't open again (file not found error). A soft reset does not fix this problem.
After over six weeks finally an answer from TomTom - could not be worse, it reads:
"Navigator 7 is a software product that is only available as an exclusive offering that comes preloaded on specific handsets that are available only in Europe. As such, unfortunately we do not have a Navigator 7 solution for your handsets. Outside of TomTom’s policy, our exclusivity with the handset manufactures prevents us from complying with your request. We do apologize for any inconvenience."
Is that no the best way to loose customers....
Although there are other ways to get TomTom 7 on your Xperia, that sucks indeed.
Looks like you won't get an official one. That sucks of them to be honest. I'm not an 'honorable' customer myself as I use a cracked one. But this is a fail-safe way of making paying customers go away.
If they won't sell it, that's their fault...
There are plenty of places to get TT7 on the net and it works a treat on the X1.
IGO8 is so much better than Tomtom anyway. I love igo8.
TomTom 7 - v7.910.9185 is the latest version available to download, works great on x1 but I agree igo 8 is better.

Not really.
IGO has no automatic intelligent traffic rerouting based on real world traffic jams. No automatic updating of speed camera's (fixed & mobile). Igo does have a clickable navigation screen though. I.e. you can click on something your passing and see what it is. Tomtom 6 misses that, don't know about 7.
for me, tomtom 7.910 works like a charm
Did you have to do anything special to get 7.910 installed on yor X1. Everytime i try it comes up with device not supported.
Do you need to be connected to the internet to use tomtom7?

There is however a workaround. Download Resource Hacker, open a copy of TomTom Navigator.exe and remove the resource under HI_RES_AWARE. Save the file and replace on device.
Then I would recommend to install the navigation panel to easily run tomtom in landscape without having the keyboard out. If you use panels, that is ..
The text in the statusline is getting bigger as well, and portrait navigation is a bit narrow.
Hello people
I have messed around with a few builds and radios and roms and have finally found a combination that runs everything nearly perfectly. The only thing making me go back to use WM is IGO 8 because I can't find a replcement for it.
Does anyone use a satnav with the sd builds of Android ideally with uk maps?
Cheers in advance.
PS I did do a search first and I know IGO my way is too small!

There are 2 versions of IGO which work on HD2 with the correct resolution :
Motonav (Motorola's version of IGO) and IGO My Way (yes, there is a 800x480 version)
I tested both and prefer the second one (it's not as good as the WinMo versions yet, but looks a bit like IGO Primo on WinMo).
Try searching for "iGOMyWay_8.4.2.139242_Android_800x480.zip" in google, you should be able to find what you need.
You my dear man are a star and a gentleman thanks for your prompt response and info

Sorry should have said try copying your wimo UK maps across to the Android version
They should work if they are version 8.3
For the US, I've found CoPilot Live to be a good Android stand alone voice turn by turn GPS nav with announced street names (TTS). When using WM, iGuidance and iGO have been my favorite stand alone nav apps. That said, has anyone been able to get the Android version of iGO to announce street names like it does in WM?
Best to all,

Which GPS apk do you recomend to use ? With precise european maps & good graphics resolution for i5800 screen.
Sygic has not good resolution for i5800 and Navigon looks OK - but no experiences.
At Windows mobile I was very satisfied with Igo 8
As OpenStreetMap Contributor I would recommend MapDroyd or OsmAnd. For those who don't know openstreetmap, take a look at wikipedia (can't post links as new user...)
I am using copilot live, and love it really. great screen resolution, no crashing.

Take a look here: hxxp://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Android
And in Germany you can't get better maps than OpenStreetMap. And best thing is, even if there is something missing, just add it yourself. Maps are and will be free.

iGo is not available for 240x400 resolution. I use NDrive for navigation and i am totally satisfied with it. Has the same detail level in maps as iGo i think.

I second that.
At least try Navigation (comes with Google maps) as I've found it works perfectly and is free. You just need a data connection when you first plan the route.
If you don't have it, download Google maps from the market.

On My HD2/Android, I use ....
CoPilot 8. I purchased the USA only today for only $4.99 from their website.
My dual boot phone now has CoPilot for both operating systems. It works more smoothly on Android, and I'm really happy with it.
The navigation app that came with my Android distribution (little blue arrowhead pointing up) also works just fine, with its integration into Google Maps.
try ndrive it works nice
copilot is sweet, and navigon also, but i know that gingerbread struggles with navigon, other ROMs dont.
he he he... the one which has the map for the country you're in and your language
(and if someone knows an Android nav with a map of China NOT in chinese... i'm interested)
For me: Igo
For my wife: Garmin
So who's right?
IGO is working?
