Hi All
I use a HTC 7 Mozart on Orange UK. My phone just downloaded an update for the Orange Maps application via the marketplace. The update turns Orange Maps from a placeholder app that just had some screenshots and said "coming soon" to a fully functioning Sat Nav application.
If you are on Orange UK, go to the marketplace, you should see "1 update" at the bottom of the screen. Tap this and select "update all" on the bottom left.
After the update is complete you will have full Sat Nav! The service is not free on all Orange UK price plans. I am on Panther and the basic version is free and I can pay an extra £2:50 per month for speed cameras and traffic updates.
Cheers

its about time. i only took out the panther contract for orange maps. might try for a bit of compensation since the store used it as a selling point without mentioning it would be available for a couple months.
Let us know how you get on

I got the x10 yesterday from DUbai. For the last 20 hours I am looking for the market. Could not find it. If it was there and not in the application list how to enable it.
If it was not how to install it ?
Please help.
Mines was in the Applications Drawer at the bottom... and I added a Shortcut on my desktop for it too
It is not there. Even in the user manual it says it is there but I could not find it.
maybe you got one with a prototype-firmware. Check if you can get an update
hi man i knw this is off ur topic but just want to ask how much does it cost to buy an x10 from dubi i have family there i want to see if its cheaper than lebanon thanks and wish u found the markit thing take care...
Big shops (Axiom, S DJ, ..etc) AED 3000
Other small shops (after long search) AED 2700
I got confirmation that market is not allowed by Telcom Regularity Authority in UAE. That is why it is not included in the device.
U need to flash to a UK version - It should be availble in some shops
No YouTube App and Hyves for TimeScape
I'm not missing the Market app... I'm missing the YouTube app ... and also Hyves for timescape I am missing :'(
According the update program which I have download, I have the latest firmware 1.0.14
no market
hi i just bought an x10 from uae. its very unfortunate that uae has blocked or not allowed the market app in android phones, however if i update my software as ive heared that version2.1 will be released shortly
q1)will my x10 work in india? i mean the market app.
q2)can i download any other third party software? if yes from where?
1) it's firmware related - so it won't work in india either, as long you haven't updated the firmware.
2) yes - just search google for "*.apk"
you'll have to find a file-manager like "astro".
it would be much easier as soon as you get a different firmware.

Thanks for the info.
I don't have Play Now, I have urMusic which I can't use because I am not a Rogers customer.
Need to debrand but when I do I lose my MLB at bat 2010 in the market.

same here,i dnt have playnow on my device
I called Ericcson and asked, and they told me that canada does not have play now, and will not get it any time in the forseeable future
Nordic 23 firmware. no update. whats going on>?
hadnt really checked before, as all the paid apps I had installed on G1 showed up in downloads but if I click on games, or apps it only shows 'top Free apps' and 'Just in' and no 'top paid apps'
just wondering if anyone else on vodafone UK has had this issue
I get a 'top paid apps' tab on my marketplace and I'm on vodafone
Actually just checked and when I click the 'top paid' tab nothing loads! how strange hmm
All working fine for me, with Beautiful Widgets at £1.49 at the top of the list.
Mine doesn't even load with wifi.
Paid for apps appearing here as well.
Its weird I can see paid for apps on the home screen, there is just no tab for them when I browse, maybe it will fix itself
after used market enabler, i look up in the market and it not has the top paid button but I still can buy paid apps. how to fix it?
I use O2 2.1 build 1
I bought the HTC Desire Z from Bell in Canada about a week ago. So far im loving it. but... the phone is missing "Locations" app which a normal DZ should have. I emailed and asked HTC and they said the Bell version of DZ DOES NOT have "Locations".
Then I started to check out my phone and I found an option in setting->location->Reinstall. That option is to reinstall the locations app. However, when I pressed the button and it said "Unable to find an activity to handle this option."
I have read that the Locations app on Desire HD is in SD card. Is there anyway for me to get the locations app back?
Thank you.
You will have to install a custom ROM to add locations, also the Canada maps cost money so kinda pointless.

The Locations *maps* are on the SD card, but as far as I'm aware, the actual app isn't.
You'll need to install a ROM containing HTC Locations, as has been said, but then you'll still need to get hold of maps.
I debranded my Bell DZ and got Locations and the Car Panel.
Here's the link.

You should be able to create your own POIs.
To get others listed you must have the map data for that area.
Locations is a month by month suscription($10.00 per month). Didn't you get some sort of notifiation of this when you launched the app. Maps I believe are free. The service seems similar to the GPS Navigator app on the Bell Desire Z.

It's not a month by month thing in the UK. I have no idea about your country. It's free to use the maps that are loaded onto your phone (e.g. my UK phone has maps of the UK, Ireland and France). But everything else does cost though - e.g. navigation, traffic, speed camera alerts, etc, etc.

I believe Locations is a free app with free maps provided by HTC.
Bell, being Bell, removed the HTC Locations app and replaced it with its own GPS Navigator app that costs $10/month.
Whatever nav application that was on my phone before debranding had loads of POI's in it. Although I have map data, I have no POI's.
Google maps navigation is awesome and free! I love it
