Hi, all
I've been searching these days for an offline GPS navigation software for Wave 3 and found only an outdated NDrive with very old maps.
Is there any decent one?
Thanks

C'mon man.....
Go to Menu -> Settings -> Location (or GPS, i dont know how its called in english) -> scroll down and you'll find "Be On Road". Enable it, then relaunch the application.
Simple as f***k

Maps with navigation
do i have to pay for it, if i open maps and enter a adresse i wanna move to it only shows me a route plan no navigation...
It's an extension to the google maps application which is only available in the USA. It's free but there are licensing issues that, as I understand it, google are working on getting sorted out.

After it brings up the directions, there should be an option to "navigate". Not sure if it's available in all countries. Where are you from?

follow these instructions: http://jkkmobile.blogspot.com/2009/12/how-to-google-navigation-turn-by-turn.html
and it will work anywhere in the world. You'll also want to go to the marketplace and download the free app called "nav launcher" which launches the hacked maps easily.

Car Menu and Google Maps Navigation. When you are out and about, Galaxy S makes finding your way around fun, easy and efficient. In the car, put Galaxy S into its mount, and weather, view map, voice search and navigation icons are instantly displayed. The Google Maps Navigation application allows you to find your destination easily and quickly even through the most complex streets. As you make your way, Galaxy’s internet-connected navigation with voice command and preinstalled Google Maps, provides three different views. Real street view, traffic view and satellite view.

Am I the only person who gets "Navigation is not available in your area" when I load the navigation app? Samsung are selling the phone with navigation as a feature, one I intended to use which is disabled because?
I was under the impression that Google Navigation was only available in the US as of right now.

I'm pretty sure they opened it up recently to the UK a short while ago, but so far I think thats it
I had the same issue, had to instal brut google maps to have working navigation. I knew google maps navigation wasn't available here, but it was kind of among to have a non working app pre installed ob a phone that is sold locally.
Sorry double post.
Just install Brut google maps
what is brut google maps? i cant find it on the market

Its a modified version of google maps and Navigation that works outside of U.S. I use it all the time here in Australia. Perfect !!
Not available in the market, but you can find it here.

Its works in Canada.. Google Navigation has been working in Canada for about a year now.

There's no google Nav in aus yet as mentioned. Brut[maps] works, but be aware there are still some small subtle oddities (which don't really affect it's use), such as going the wrong way around on roundabouts (So if it says second exit, that might mean second exit counterclockwise, NOT the correct way).
Hi
Sorry if this has been discussed, but I couldn't find anything.
I'm interested in buying an Optimus One and I would really like to know what GPS software can I install, because GoogleMaps is not an option where there's no 3G signal...
Is iGO available for Android?
I'm really new in Andoid stuff, just got rid of my good-for-nothing Nokia 5230 (Symbian really sucks, the only good thing in it was the OviMaps app).
I ude ndrive..it cost $ but the ui turn by turn a like alot.
hello 22VIN ,
on my optimus one, I have installed iGO My Way 8.4.2.13242 and Sygic Aura. both of them is working very well no need 3G, just GPS enabled. the gps receiver itself is very fast , sensitive & accurate. I recommend it.
Try Copilot or Navigon.

If iGO works this is the best solution for me, because iGO has a very complete map of Romania (this I know for sure, I don't know anything about the other software) and I am very familiar to the interface.
3G is useful for A-GPS, because you can get a position lock in a few seconds, but if you say the receiver is fast, then it's ok.
Thanks for the answers
No, just use the new google maps 5.0. Has offline caching now.

Yeah. But still isn't as good as iGO. Which does have an Android version, just as mr_ace_sk said. I'm using v8.4.2.124036 with maps from July 2010 on my LG P500. I'm pleased with this combination.

Here you go... Sorry for the delayed reply... This one is not the orignal one.. But its good.. You can use the 240MB India premium maps with this
And here is the original.
I use OruxMaps for the very reason that it supports full offline use. You prepare a map on the PC using mobile atlas creator (aka download maps from google maps or any provider, then create a file you can use on OruxMaps).
1. OruxMaps http://www.oruxmaps.com/index_en.html
2. MobAc http://mobac.dnsalias.org/
Downloaded my city's entire map from layers 16 - 18 xD I have never accessed the internet with my phone using OruxMaps for GPS stuff, and I have never manually cached stuff using the phone

That would be great. MEans no data connection or GPS required.
I plan to buy one in the next couple of days.
I was wondering, can I still use those maps if I switch to FLIGHT MODE? Or for initial fix A-GPS is a must.
I ask this question because many entry level phones have very poor GPS antenna, which means getting a cold fix without A-GPS can take 15-20 minutes, if not more.
Yes.. You can ...
Need india map file for ndrive
mod edit: Do not ask for warez. This is the last warning!
btw i am using google maps navigation feature it's 98% acurate
I can't seem to get GPS working on my new LG GT540 (Android 2.1) Any help is appreciated Thanks
Which GPS software are you using?

I've just discovered that you need to access the Google map data (and therefore to have paid the mobile network provider). It worked fine after making the first payment. My bad

Don't bother with that. Just get iGO. It has built-in maps for many countries(Eu, USA,Asia etc...), voice navigation, everything like a real GPS!

I wouldn't recommend built-in data can become outdated. Any navigation app that has a satellite view in addition to map data would be the best choice. You can use an app like Locust to download the data and store it via wifi before you leave home.
Igo works fine on my 540

h well it doesn't, apps haven't started to filter in to Win 8 yet given its a beta still, but I suspect once we start hitting the RCs we will see the app store getting larger with such apps, just now you need to remember that there are not many Win 7 tablets with GPS so demand is not high for your needs just yet.
Try using google earth - it works with GPS
I know this is a stretch but why not use the metro bing maps app. It does support location services.
