- Hi there
- Can the Ovi Maps from nokia be ported to SGS in anyway ???
- I used to have i8910 years ago and with a hacked firmware I could change the Phone ID to N97 For example and use all Nokia services.
- I only need the Ovi Maps as it has offline Maps for Egypt.
- So any help would be extremely appreciated, thank you.
Ovi maps runs on symbian os so i imagine it would be incredibly difficult to port it over.
Just like most windows software won't work on linux and vice versa.

No. Without sources it's impossible to port Ovi Maps from Symbian to Android.

Yes but Nokia hasn't any services for Android so it's pointless.

You should try Android navigation apps (f.e. iGO, Sygic, Navigon). They also should have offline maps for Egypt.

If you need SE Asia maps, got to the following sites, the have THE most accurate and detailed maps for the region, and they're free.
http://roadguide.ph (philippines)
http://www.malsingmaps.com (malaysia, singapore, brunei)
You'll have to use Garmin Moblie XT to use the maps.

I have HTC Diamond and I am looking for Nokia Maps pro.
CAN ANYBODY HELP ME ????
this is quite a funny question ) do you at least know the difference between Windows Mobile and Symbian?
nokia removed the wm version. Search for 'smart2go windows mobile' and you'll find versions on other portals. Same for the maps. Nokia's maploader is too new, so simply do some search and you'll find a (norwegian) site to download the files directly.
After installing the app you have to start it first before copying the maps. Close the app and you will find a folder 'cities' where the maps should be copied to.
(directory structure cities/diskcache/...)

Looking at what offline navigation apps are avail for android and HD2?
Have only seen Co-pilot and BRUT google navigator (Cached maps)
I really liked copilot on WinMo, but I haven't transferred by key over to andorid yet so Im not sure how it works on android
iGO My way is now available for 800x480 devices. It's pretty good.
IGO. Cool. source?
Version number?
Navigon and copilot....both are also great. And igo also...

For source you could do a google search on the term tangbohu. He made 800 x 480 possible.

I am using Winmo Energy ROM & Android Froyosense 2.2
I always use Garmin mobile XT for my gps, but i don't know what gps software should i use when i am on android?

I am happily using Sygic Mobil Maps
You could also try Ndrive available from the market
There is IGOmyway available as well. I use it right now

They all suck compared to Garmin. Hopefully they come up with an Android version. All though the one that come on the Desire HD seemed pretty swell! Tried it out for a bit but had to give up on the rom.

what is the software's name?
I tried one by one from previous replier, but it seems that i have to buy for the map/software
thanks
I don't except using GPS in android at all.....
Garmin is not free either. Hasn't been available by retail for a few years. Unless you find a hacked version. Or purchased it a few years ago.
And with a little googling you should be able to find igo or ndrive too. Igo can be a pain to set up and get working correctly on the HD2. Ndrive was a breeze. I have both.
You can always use the FREE google navigation app as long as you have a data connection. Also somewhere on xda someone has developed BRUT google maps. Where you can cache maps and add them to your storage card so you can use the app without having a data connection.
Ndrive is by far the best behind google maps. Its has a nice GUI, and so far routing has been pretty good for me.
Hi everybody, and welcome.
Would it be difficult to make an app for Google Maps similar to the one that iPhone has (maps rotating using compass, adding favs or sync with google account). Though the most imoprtant thing is compass amd rotation...

Bada needs good navigation app. For now route66 is having lot of bugs and we need google maps for bada
There is a modified Java version of GoogleMap for the Wave.
I found it on badaforums.net and it's working.
Not perfect but enough for me
hi...
y not just share the link 4 google maps u r using
Here you are... You'll probably have to search thru the topic to have the good version since I had it since I had my Wave so it's quite a long time ago.
Route66 is a LOT better than both Sygic Aura and NDrive on Android. I have tried them all and prefer Route66 on Bada to these two. I will never understand why these apps do not use native keyboard on Android? NDrive is the ugliest and most annoying to use one and Sygic's usability and UI sucks.

Maybe in you contry... - nDrive is very fast compared with Route66
Let's don't talk about Android, in that case iGO is the best
I agree with googlemaps native for bada. Java version needs many improvements.
Hopefully come out soon
Regards!
