Copilot live - Acer Iconia A500

Copilot is freezing (not force closing) on me after about 30 seconds of doing anything in the menus. If I can get to the destination screen quick enough I can put in my destination with no problem and it won't freeze on me while giving directions. Anyone else having this problem?

No one else is having this problem?

freezing
im so glad its not just me
random freezing with co-pilot if you open o
in portrate i
locked it will try to work
i sent them email please do the/same

Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone either I sent an email on Friday about it.

Saw this on their twitter feed (posted 31-March):
@copilotsupport CoPilot Live Support
@pappyxmas We are adding support for Xoom in the next update coming soon.
Seems like the Xoom would be most like our Acer.
And on the list of supported devices:
Motorola - Droid 2, Droid Incredible, Droid X, Milestone, Milestone 2
So... seems like it's not there yet.

yes same for me. The 15min. Refund policy is robbery.
How do u get a refund if it never works?

im sure they will get this fixed soon. i do really hope so very blonde here and need this app to work.I have not found another turn by turn nav that comes close

New Free GPS from amazegps

Hi Guys,
Thanks for lots of things on the website, I just got my mogul 2 days back and I am installing lots of app. One thing I really wanted was free GPS app. Now I liked msn live better then Google, specially as it was giving ding sound before turn. But I still wanted audibles. So, I downloaded nav4all. But it was pain in the xxx as it will only work some time. Even I kept google maps running in the back so it can lock but when I start nav4all app it will not lock. It only worked 2 times for 10 minutes.
So finally found following app and it worked like champ. I will give outdoor try tomorrow bit it was easy to install, good clear sound. Lots of setting and 2 different option to save bandwidth. I did not have to do anything to even lock on the satellite. It just worked. I tried some entering address and all that stuff and it worked great. I will let you all know more tomorrow after some test. Give it a shot as it is free.

how did you get this to work i get an apply screen. i will look deeper into this im also using the mogul. thanks for exposing this app though
same
ive got the same screen
Did y'all follow instructions and write down the username and password they put up on the download page for Windows Mobile?
Apply Screen
Make sure to write down your user name & password, record it from the site download screen.
Pretty cool
Very cool, and it's free, but mine says it's Alpha version, and it looks like it does not have all the features it claims to have for other mobile devices. Also, for some reason, it does not show areal view (I am in Florida, USA). But I like the idead of hearing voice directions. I'll let you know later when I am on the road.

Hi Guys, I tried it today going to work and it worked really really good. I think UI is better then my Magellan. It shows POI's nearby and text is really clear. Route calculation was really quick. I am pretty much impressed. Now one problem is if you zoom fully and driving on the highway, it sometimes lags on refresh but if you are one level less zoom it works good. Man this is too good to be true but it works and the voice pretty loud. As this is just alpha version I think they should be able to improve it more.
This is too good to be true
I know it's alpha, but I have a few issues:
- US Maps are old - didn't have my area which is over four years old.
- Keep having to enter username/password each time I start - no way I'm going to remember that every time.
- doesn't remember settings (imperial vs. metric, etc.)
Anyone else having these issues?
Installed, ran...unimpressed
I don't really see the point for this app in the U.S. I don't know how LiveSearch and Google maps work in other countries....but this app gave zero new features...in fact, the aforementioned worked better.
In my humble opinion, US buyers, move on.

I don't know why you say that, it is not like you are paying anything for the app. It is free, gives you voice prompt. If you are like me who has unlimited data, you don't worry about updating maps as they will be always updated and it just works.
Also it has an no satellite option which will just give you direction arrows and voice prompt in which it will download map for the whole route so, even if you are going to the place where there is no data service available you will still able to navigate as long as you are on the course and as I said it worked much better then I expected.

No, I have to enter username only once and also I don't have to enter setting again. Seems like you have some write permission issue as it just to storing some values to say, don't need to enter password and other setting. I also have my favorites saved. I use it on HTC Mogul.
Just d\l it an looks good. Demo plotted course well but no audio. Tried WM5 and WM6 and sound is greyed out on the options menu. Anyone getting turn by turn audio?

I am getting turn by turn audio. I did not have to make any changes for that.
I tried this app about a week or so ago and it didn't work on my Mogul -- I just tried it again (downloaded the "now available" WM6 version) and it indeed works... Map coverage in my area is a bit weak, but I'm going to give the app a workout and see how it goes...
The price is right...
I tried this on my Mogul yesterday and it drove me absolutely insane! The maps for my area is seriously outdated and the navigation on the map is painfully annoying. Love the "Turn left at next intersection" voice though. Microsoft's Live Search is still my "free" GPS program of choice.

Thanks for the info. I only tried it in the demo mode and I'll take it on the road tomorrow to check it out. I may be one of the only ones, but I love Nav4All, also free, and doesn't need an active internet connection after the course is plotted so I figure I'll play around with this one over the weekend...
Good stuff considering it's free...but i prefer the tomtom over this any day! but then again in the free category this beats google and live only because it gives you turn by turn directions! In googlemaps u take the wrong turn, the course stays plotted but your blue dot goes awry! GoogleMaps doesn't even warn you that you've gone the wrong way!
need help

Do you have a Radio ROM that has the GPS enabled? If you're Verizon, for example, you're going to need to flash a new ROM. There's plenty of discussion on how to do so here and on PPCGeeks.

CoPilot favourites not saving

Hey all,
Any Copilot users here? Are you able to create any new favourite locations? The process all seems to go through properly for me but then no favourite is created, even my recent destinations doesn't update itself, it's like something isn't able to be written to. Anyone else?
I'm using OD 3.1.0
Thanks
Russ
I'm sorry to say, but if you bought copilot you have to contact the official support. If you did NOT buy it: GO AWAY - these requests are not wanted in here!

Woah there horsey, that's a big assumption! Someone needs to decrease their righteousness.
I did indeed buy it, no dodgy copies here and I have contacted support directly but sometimes knowledgeable people with faster response times can be found on here.
i have no problems saving favorits on my copilot, im using version 8.2.0.218, i dont know if this is of any help but if you run copilot without the gps on it dosent seem to save anything you do
Same version here, GPS is definitely on too. Could be an Opendesire ROM issue maybe?

try clearing the data & cache in settings/applications, see if that helps
That was the first thing I tried. Then I uninstalled and even deleted the folder from the SD Card and reinstalled from scratch downloading the maps again and everything...no luck

maybe you should try a diffrent rom then sorry i cant help more, but its defo working on mine
Thanks anyway, appreciate the input. Lets hope an OD user stumbles upon this thread
I'm going to make a suggestion here, now don't think am saying this is better than that but have you tried sygic mobile maps instead? I use it myself and it's available from the HTC store so does that say anything for it?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I had this on my Hero when I took the sim out so can't really help. I tried NDrive when my Copilot expired (even though I purchased it months ago) and didn't like it at all (the UI wasn't very polished). Good luck if you contact Copilot support, they aren't the quickest.
I had that problem, updated to version v8.2.0.251, and the problem seems sorted.
Ooh yeah just noticed a new release today, has fixed it for me too, must have been a bug.
On a loosely related note...do you still have the option to turn off the "Welcome to Copilot Live" speech greeting when you start it? Seems to have disappeared on mine or I forgot where it is
No, lost the option to turn that off, along with the annoying beep every time you select something.
Same here...I'll send a message on twitter to their support
Good Luck,
I did report these as a problem by email a couple of weeks ago, and they notified me about the update 4 days ago. At least they solved the major problem in my eyes, only two more to go.

[Q] Widget Help

Hi. I'm having very big issues with my new myTouch 4G.
This whole downloading of widgets worked for me couple of times since I bought this phone. I was able to download some widget for my gMail, called "Gmail 2.3", "Facebook", "Stopwatch", and many other ones. The way that I would download them was: I would long press on any empty portion of any screen/tab or even go a totally empty tab, after I would get a little menu with choice of out of four (4) items -"Shortcuts", "Widgets", "Folder", and "Wallpaper" and all four (4) items have a little arrow down - button (to select it). Since I would want to install some widget on my screen, I tap arrow-down next to "Widgets". It brings me up all available widgets that are already preinstalled on my device (T-Mo or HTC puts them there), if you don't find a widget which you need, out of preinstalled ones (and most likely you won't because there are 30 of them there TOPS), you can press on "Get more widgets" (in the list along other 4 choices) and it allows you to do a word search/title for a widget that you want. BUT for me - it doesn't open up that search box, anymore. Instead it says in white letters "Unable to download widgets. Tap to try again.” Now when I call T-Mo they don't understand what is it that I want to do. They tell me, how you can ONLY use widgets that are pre-installed on the device, and it never allows you to download any more. I had this issue once before, and I got scared so I exchanged my device. I just bought it back then; only 6 days had passed, so I was still able to return/exchange it. I was within the return/exchange period back then, but not now. And the problem is back
Do I need to install some update somehow? Or what do I do?? If YES for the update, then how??
Thank You All! For your help!
Mine does it too... AFAIK HTC is having some speedbumps with this phones launch, but they should be ironed out relatively soon...
Plus we just got full root... one of the devs will prolly come up with some sort of fix (assuming its a problem on the handset vs their server)

So you say "Wait, and it'll be resolved"?
I just bought my MT4G today, and I'm experiencing the same problem. I have not been able to download any widgets yet, so I'm looking forward to this working for me.

[Q] Does any one experience this bug when using some of the apps?

Hi I'm still an Android noob. I got my white Dell Streak from Bestbuy about a week ago. It took me a while, but I was able to update my phone to the stock 2.2 after several failure. My phone works flawlessly and so far I only experience FC probably 2 or 3 times mostly due to applications (knock on wood) .
However, the Onion News Network and the Dictionary.com apps have been giving me trouble .
I couldn't get the Onion News apps to pass the initial update and every time when I click on the pronunciation link on the Dictionary.com, the downloading circular icon would appear, buy it will take forever and nothing would happen.
By the way, I could watch any clip on the Onion News website and hear the pronunciation on Dictionary.com fine by using the default Android browser.
Could anyone please help me download the apps and verify to see if this is happening to all the 2.2 Dell Streak? I would like to know if this is happening to everyone or maybe I messed up my Streak.
I tried to search the forum and the web, but I could find anything so far.
Thanks a lot.
Bump.
Could someone please helpl me download those programs and let me know if this is an isolated issue or it happens on all 2.2 Streak? I would really appreciate your help.

[Q] TEXTING on TF? i MUST be doin' something wrong

(wouldn't be the FIRST time
k, just wanna say i searched the word "texts" and dint get one hit in this thread. Thinkin' THAT can't be right but here goes...
Is there a way to send texts on this or becuz its wi-fi only, OR is that an "eyeroll question"?
Other than that shortcoming, i have to say my 1st 24 hours with this thing has been nothing but great.
I was one of those "whatintheworlddoineedatabletfor" ppl and i have to say i am madly inlove with this thing. i already had bought an ASUS MT91 Touch Tablet last fall (even tho it came with Windows 7 Home Premium, not Starter) but after just a few weeks it was just too slow to use at a desk and too heavy to use as a couch potato prop.
This thing picks up where my EVO leaves off and i'm lovin' it to pieces...
But again, what about sending texts? Is this capable of that? (and don't laugh, i KNOW i must be missin' something?
ty!
Ms D
Not from your own number unless you have an android phone too.
Text using Google Voice. Eventually people will recognize your GV number as well as your normal number (or if they're clever, they'll just add it to your entry in their contacts list).
I currently use "TextPlus" from the market, it works great and it's free.
No lag in message sending or receiving that I've noticed.
Google voice....

In my impatience... (lol)
.... I went ahead and bought & installed SyncMMS for 3 bucks which seems like it'd do the trick EXCEPT for the fact it keeps force-closing everytime i try to Register for a dropbox so it can "do its thing"... I sent a msg to the developer... But thanks y'all, appreciate all the replies : )
In the meantime. here's another dumm q... I know the Market Aps for Honeycomb are very limited right now, but again i MUST be doing something wrong, as i have seen so many posts here and there that say they downloaded thus and such on their Asus TF from Market and when i go there, i never find ANY. Just a handful. I read ALL apps should download but not "look right" or have a big black box around them, i'm not finding ANY apps i recognize....
Is there a way to bypass the Market and d/l straight from Internet, even if they won't look right, i wouldn't mind- i registered with App Brain but i'm not seeing it IF there is a way... : )
thanx again
If you're phone is also an Android device, try TexTab: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133277.
Otherwise, Google Voice is your friend.
I also tried SyncSMS, and I didn't like it at all. It uses Dropbox as an intermediate storage facility and sends messages between devices via WiFi. The problem with that is that you have to set polling intervals. Put them too close (5 min) and your battery life suffers. Put them too far (30 min) and the app is useless since you lose the immediacy of SMS.
TextPlus works pretty well too

that makes a lot of sense... Will ck out ur link.... ty!
**Edit... Just saw it was a zip file... Do i need to be rooted?
that looks like a sweet apk.
I don't think you need to be rooted. Unzip the file and install the apk on both devices. You might have to check the unknown sources box in settings/applications/unknown sources. This will allow you to install the apk through file manager by clicking on it.
I'm gonna download it now and check it out.
Been testing TextTab, known bug that after tge TF sleep I loose connection to the phone. I think once wifi is implemented it will be a great app.
One good things about SyncSms, if say you're going over sea, you can leave phone on at home and bring the
TF, so long a you have internet connection you can get and send sms.

Thanks for checking all that out, i will do it too when i get home. Learned something new thanks 2 u, eventho i've rooted my phone, replaced pngs, installed ROMS, modified things in themes i didn't like, YET i never knew a reg zip file could be installed on an un-rooted phone, so THAN U!
Think i prolly won't be using the SyncSMS after the issue u described, and as for it being good overseas, thats not a plus for ME, since the liklihood of me going overseas is pretty nil. Work, home, Jack In The Box is about as broad a travelling that i do...lol
I tried SyncSMS but the lag was unacceptable...I waited 5 minutes for a text that never came through.
If that could be fixed, then it would seem to be a great app
