[Q] Navigation on folio 100

Is there any good navigation software for folio 100?
For gps we can use blutooth gps.
so far the only SW I know are Navigon, Sygic, Copilot and the one from Google.
You can try Copilot, iGO or Sygic Aura
I tried to install Sigic Aura but it told me it need "3D hardware acceleration not available in this phone". Is it possible to solve this problem???.
Thanks.
I try Igo My Way and the screen is to small.I install CoPilot but I can't run it. It say "CoPilot's code cannot be loaded by the system". With Aura I have problem with 3D...

Thanks a lot.
Hello,
someone who tried this solution:
Haicom HI-505SD standard Bluetooth GPS receiver with standard miniSD to SD adaptor
Pros:
-standard Bluetooth connection
-power directly over the SD Card slot
to use navigation on the folio, u will need it to be constantly powered in the vehicle. there are many bluetooth gps receivers, and some of them are reported to work nicely with android 2.2 with the help of some 3rd party apps. but didi anyone find a way to power the folio in the car?
Officially there is no connector that you can use, but you can use a 3th party adaptor to get a 220/110 volt out of the cigarette lighter outlet.
You can also get a external backup battery.
I have a 12->15-21v laptop power supply to use in the car which was much better than trying to use a 240v charger in the car (it kept killing the little invertors I tried before).
Ok, i found a solution to using gps on the folio via bluetooth. There is an app called gpsredirect for winmo5 n up. Install bluetooth gps on android. U will need a pda running win mo 5 or above with integrated gps chipset. I han an old eten g500+ i was not using. I will make as my bluetooth gps receiver for the folio. Gps redirect works only on some devices, check the tested n supported list!
Just need to find a working navigation app for the folio now. Got a car charger for the eten g500+, just need to solve the charging for folio n the navigation app n we r good to go.
ok. i got co-pilot live on the folio and it works nicely. runninf on full screen. the graphics are not astonishing since its extrapolated and not made for 1024x600 screens but it looks fine to me.
I havent gotten time to try it with the apps i mentioned and the eten g500+, but will do so as soon as possible. now just needs to figure out a way to charge the folio in the car
at the end, it just for the sake of doing this and seeing a nav app running properly on the folio, but practically it is useless. the screen is too big to be legally placed on the dashboard of the car or the windshield for that matter.
secondly due to the screen size and brightness, it is not advised to drive at night with that kind of brightness flashing in the eyes.
i have a bleuthoot gps and working with navigon and ndrive on my folio.
it works perfect
Sygic
I think the best is Sygic GPS Navigation.
Very smooty and fast.

Justop K9B stick MK809 ii

Hi, my first post so be gentle!
Does anyone have one of these, it is the Bluetooth version of the MK809 ii and although I'm generally happy with it, it does have a few shortfalls. I am using it with a lan adaptor which works well.
I have a webcam that sort of works with Skype, but the large (Skype caller) and small (local webcam) images are the wrong way round, so if anyone calls I have to squint at the tiny picture! I tried the version off xda but it's the same. Any help there would be appreciated.
I've never dabbled with flashing anything android but should I be looking at doing this perhaps, and if so I have not seen any mention of the Bluetooth version of the MK809ii. I'll probably turn it into a vegetable anyway!
I welcome any thoughts/experience with this gadget.
Cheers

which lan adapter are you using and how much.
I am looking to buy the mk809ii, and was wondering what are some CONs and disadvantage you are seeing now? I heard it is much better than the mk808 as it has less glitches?

I'm using the BOBJGEAR usb to Lan android adapter, works fine out of the box on my tv stick.
Aside from the Skype problem above (REALLY annoying!), not too many cons to be honest, just minor niggles mainly with some apps not being suited to it.
-Youtube seems to have lost its ability to go full screen for some reason, works fine on my Nexus 7 and is the same version.
-I have tried a few DLNA media apps to try and view pictures, videos etc from my NAS and they appear to be occasionally laggy across my network, the media app that came with the stick seems to work the best but looks pants!
-Watching films is generally a good experience, but the rendering isn't fantastic on darker films, probably mainly due to the quality of videos I have. Youtube HD videos are perfect.
-Google earth works but there doesn't seem to be any zoom buttons so is useless, i haven't looked into that yet.
All in all i'm happy with it, I bought a Xenta bluetooth keyboard with built in mouse which connects fine directly with the built in bluetooth. The mouse is a bit frustrating though so will be buying a bluetooth mouse.
Hope that helps
hi sadsplace, im just thinking of buying one, are you still happy 2 weeks in, any new suggestions?
thanks

No Skype calls on new MK 809 II
I just got this new TV stick which seems to be working fine. Still, I'm unable to make calls in Skype. I attached a USB webcam and I also paired a bluetooth headset, I enabled video calls in Skype, but when I get to call anyone, after 2 or 3 rings, the call fails no matter if the other party answered or not. The only error message I see is "Call failed".
If anyone experienced this, is there a way to at least see if the webcam and the BT microphone are correctly installed? I tried several webcam apps from Google Play just to get an immage on my screen and finally I got one, but not in Skype.. .

Bluetooth mouse problem

I'm running rooted stock 4.2.2. Previously there was no problem pairing my Speedlink Snappy BT mouse, but since I went from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 I can't pair it at all. Very occasionally if I mash the mouse buttons a pointer will briefly appear on the screen, but that's about. The Nexus does recognise the mouse in the BT settings screen, but won't pair.
Is anyone else having similar problems, or, is anyone happily pairing a BT mouse? If you are, what mouse is it?

Update. I've tried the mouse on a couple of other Nexus 7s, also running 4.2.2, and it pairs without problem. There's something therefore interfering with the pairing on my device. I've cleared caches, and deleted any other BT apps, to no avail. Any suggestions?
thanks

Still have same issue - was anybody able to find solution?
Have same mouse and was using it ok but since some moment I am unable to pair this mouse with Nexus. Seems it is "stuck" somewhere in some config and as device is not rooted and I do not want to do factory reset if possible I am not sure where it can be hiding...
Anyone was able to fix this since original post please?

[Q] Bluetooth crashing Google apps?

I bought 2 Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7" tablets for my kids at Christmas. Whenever I connect bluetooth headphones or speakers Google apps will crash. Has anyone else experienced this?
So I have an update. I found this happens when the tablets are in restricted profiles but if I try to use Bluetooth on a standard profile it works fine. Anyone else have this issue?

Anyone got motion sense working universally?

I think motion sense is one of the coolest, yet least used, parts of the Pixel 4, and it's so annoying that it only works in 20 or so apps. Has anyone been able to make it work as a universal music controller, similar to how headphones control audio? Thanks!
