Which GPS navigation software did NI include on the ADAM? I noticed it was mentioned already for a while on the Sygic website, so either MobileMaps or Aura are a possibility...

OsmAnd. it's on the market for free. 2.39 mb. not bad application. it works and has everything, but of course Google Maps makes OsmAnd look really bad.

Google navigation on my HTC Incredible makes EVERYTHING look bad. I own 3 Garmins, have CoPilot Live 8 on an Imagio for world traveling, had a Tom Tom, used a Magellin, and Navigation is so quick, easy and accurate it's unbelievable.
Wonder if it will be free on Honeycomb like the Incredible.
You guys know any fullscreen GPS apps for XOOM? I tried Motonav (I have it on my n1) and it's taking up a tiny portion of the XOOM screen (obvious reasons)
anything out there already supersized?

I'm curious whether downloading Spare Parts and disabling Compatibility Mode will make it fill out the entire screen.
Good question, it's something I'm also interested in. Does Motonav use downloaded maps?
Also, have you tried disabling compatability mode in Spare Parts to make the app full screen?
The XOOM comes with Google's full screen navigation app 'Navigation'...

Not available in all countries.
forgot to mention I have the WIFI-only xoom
Motonav has pre-installed maps ... the point is to use the GPS and only the GPS (no data)
what's spare parts?
Spare parts is an app. Just put it in market and search for it and you'll see what h meant

Spare Parts is an app that lets you turn off compatibility mode, so that most apps will scale to your larger screen apposed to being small phone size on your big screen device...Why you have to turn off compatibility mode to get apps to scale..I have no clue, but it works.

That might simply be an app issue, Ive used the navigation app overseas in rome even in walking navigation, works perfectly.
I wouldnt know if it's possible to extract the apk, i am sure many others would know.
copilot might run "fine" but does it do Fullscreen on the Xoom?
Like I said, Motonav only takes up about a quarter of the screen... by removing compat. mode with spare parts it'll stretch but prolly looks ugly ... is there an actual GPS navigation version (offline) that's made for the xoom yet?

If you bring up Google Maps a notification should appear saying that your location was set by GPS.
yup, and offline gps apps like MOTONAV work just fine ... the GPS chip is very quick to catch a signal from 10+ satellites
One thing is MOTONAV isn't made for this big resolution...
if I understand it correctly, I think this is what you're looking for (not sure if the nav works with all the maps):

Thanks for the response guys. I'm looking at getting a Xoom probably in the next couple weeks. WiFi only... having GPS is a huge + for it.
Hey all.
I did some searching but couldn't find if a resolution has occurred. Has anyone made a fix for the compass being off its axes? I use 3d compass. When I tilt right, the on-screen compass points up. Etc.
I know this was once discussed. Would exchanging it solve that issue?

I believed this issue is with the developer of the software...
software that were made for phone should be updated for tablet & especially Honeycomb ... as the accelerometer/compass is reverse..etc
some appz can run on tablet properly... but it also need to support HC ( not just froyo/Gingerbread only )
there were some games that were like this ( opposite/upside down... ).... dev updated their software and it works fine in tablet
Oh that's great. Is there a good app to test the tablets compass?
It is strange that vendetta online wasn't an app that was playable due to the compass. Seems like that was all the hype for this tablet.

Try gps status in the market! It's free, does good stuff!
GPS status works ok, but remember to calibrate the compass (wave it around in a figure 8) each time you try to use it. GPS essentials does NOT work, the compass is off by 90 degrees.

Hi,
Did anybody tested to navigate and track the rout at same time. I have read that the new chip from broadcom is working with GPS and GLONASS so that the fix is much faster than every other smartphone and that is what I have tested with mine, but I haven't found a good route tracker.
DOes anybody know whether it is poosible to multitask with this chip?
I ran Sygic and Copilot at the same time. They were both announcing route changes so I would say
Yes
You can multitask apps.

Hello everyone.
I was wondering if anyone here has Google Sky Map fully working on a Nexus 7? On my N7 this app never points me to South - I am always stuck between West - North - East. When I try to point it to south I always get north instead.
I've also verified the behavior with a compass app. If I place my N7 flat on a table the compass is working well, but if I am holding it in my hands right in front of me (USB connector pointing to the ground) I get the same behavior as in Sky Map (south=north, north=north).
Is the compass even supposed to work when holding the tablet with the USB connector pointing to the ground?
Edit: I am experiencing this issue in stock 4.1.2 and Paranoid Android 2.20
Thanks in advance,
mcsmart
My Samsung Nexus S has exactly the same. It's a hardware problem
Hey bro try using the app space junk I have it on my NEXUS7 with no problems at all and in my opinion it's far better GOD BLESS YOU

Make sense to me the compass working only in horizontal position

Thanks for the hints, guys.
I managed to get it working: all I did was calibrate the compass with GPS Status. I never thought this could make a difference, but it did. Cool. I'm glad my N7 is not one of those devices with broken sensors
