Just that Navigon is pricey. 50€ for the Nordic version. Sygic is "only" 20€. Don't know if its worth it... Shame Navigon don't have a trial version.

I purchased Navigon 3.6.1. right after getting my SG2. Problem is that the CPU got crazy when running Navigon. The phone got too hot to handle! I returned my phone and got another one. Same problem. I solved the problem with SetCPU, setting the max on 800Mhz. So far I used the Navigon maps only in the Netherlands. Maps and directions given are ok.

I contacted Samsung and Navigon on this matter. I got no usable comment of both.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mdalacu:
Sygic

Sygic Aura is the best. It using OpenGL to diplay the maps, so it's fast and easy on CPU.

My only problem is that that it is using TomTom maps. Any one how lives in a country where TomTom has good coverage , this is your navigation software, no other !

In Romania it has only 2 cities Bucharest and Timisoara..13% coverage.

i have been very unimpressed with gps programs in general. my all time favorite is garmin mobile xt which sadly is not available for android gs2

navigon is close is better than the rest so far but it will NOT work without a data connection.

i even tried the hacked version same problem

you MUST have a data connection to start the program but once its running you no longer need the data connection

no data equals force close on opening the app

that sucks means i can not use on water or in remote places ie no data
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Mittaa:
The paid version from Android Market do not need data connection!

If your searching for a free off line maps you could take a look at Map Droid and Locus. They are both great apps, free and supports Vector maps.

If your need is off line car navigation I think you have to go for Navigon or Copilot Live (US version is cheap).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] nerys71:
Negative have paid version force xloses on start in no data

One opwn i can turn off data but must have it to open the program

I will see if maybe mine needs an update as i temd not to update unless i need it
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Archer:
From reading the Navigon site it appears that you do require a data connection when starting the app. Personally, I find this ridiculous. I can understand a 1-off licence check, but not ever time you start the app.

Raise it on the Navigon website and ask them how you're supposed to use the app if you're in an area without a data connection.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BatterBits:
Route 66 has now launched on the market. Tried it - has an "augmented reality" view - where you "follow" an image of a car, portrayed on the cameras view of the road. Currently has a 30 day trial £44.99 will buy you an unlimited, lifetime, worldwide license with £17.49/year each for speedcam and travel addons. Interestingly, they also have a 30day/£6.99 navigation license available - so that could be good if you are content to use say google maps for your home country, but want satnav when you are away from home/abroad.

On the downside, I have yet to find a way to alter the route - either by "vias" or "avoids" other than just drive a different way. It also does postcodes, but doesn't explain that you just type in a PC at the search screen - instead of picking one of the displayed options.

There is another new (or upgraded) nav system - called NavFree which is free too. I've been using this for a week or more, and I must say I'm very impressed. This works with crowd sourced maps (which seem to me to be fairly accurtate) and you can download maps as and when required. Postcodes are dealt with as a separate download - initially I thought you couldn't navigate using them. Can't find any way to string a route together using Vias - and "avoid" is listed as detour, distances from 100 yards to 10 miles.

Navigon - I cannot recommend due to them basically having no respect for their customers. I had purchased the app from them directly - off their own web site. They tried to make me buy it again, from the market, when they discovered that they had no mechanism for users to download directly from them.

Now I have upgraded my phone from a Milestone to an SGS2, couldn't get it to work. They have (made up a story) determined that the product I bought was "tied" to the phone. I have asked them to direct me to the terms & condidtions where it specifies this, I've heard nothing for a month. Poor, poor show - like I'm going to buy it again. Yeah, right.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paninomatic:
Hi,

I had a gingerbread version on my sgs. I flashed with a speedmod version which is intended for 2.2.1

That was obviously stupid. After I did that i tried to activate the lagfix and played around in the "Recovery mode menu". I don't know exactly what I did there.

My device did't boot anymore so I flashed it several times including repartitioning. After flashing i could boot android but the startup manager and loads of other applications keep force closing. I don't know how to stop them do that. Flashing many different versions (jpu, etc.) didn't help.

What coul'd I have destroyed that is not recovered by flashing with repartition?

Im pretty desperate...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trustsyzaa:
after flashing jpu try to flash speedmod kernel then get into recovery mode and activate lagfix again.

tell me it works or not,thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paninomatic:
The flash of the speedmode seemed to went fine. Afterwards I still get force closes on startup. So I went to:

Recover mode -> advanced features -> lagfix options -> Convert Data to Ext

After reboot it says: "New filesystem config detected. Convert? I choose yes. Then it converts some stuff and reboots. Then he it says the exact same thing: "New filesystem config detected. Convert? I choose yes again. It converts some stuff and reboots....Exact same thing....

I choose "No enter recovery mode". There I choose disable lagfix. After reboot it says "New filesystem config detected. Convert?" I choose yes. It converts some stuff. After reboot it doesn't ask again. Still get force closes.

In the system my browser works. Pressing home button produces force closes. Trying to sync my google account and many other things force close, too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paninomatic:
Next I try:

Recovery -> lagfix options -> convert system -> reboot

"System conversion requested Convert?"

I choose convert to ext4.

It says done but doesn't boot beyond the first Galaxy S Screen.

1. uninstall kies and all samsung drivers from ur pc

2. turn off ur phone, press and hold vol down+menu+power together (or press power last)--for experienced users download mode

4. turn on ur phone and end all apps using task killers

5. reinstall the latest kies and connect ur phone

[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
I have disabled the standard SE apps like timescape, liveview, hdmi, media etc. i freeze them with titaniumBackup. Why i did this was to see if there is a change in battery life.

Now testing today i must say there isn't change in battery life. I will love to test clean android 2.3.3. but for now there isn't a change.

i also free MtApp don't know what it is/

everything still works stable so what i think is that removing timescape woudn't affect much. Only thing i notices was that i couldn't acces contacts info.
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
But why the hell do you buy Arc to disable everything.

This is crazy.
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
It was not to disable everything, it was more to test it to see the battery life.

There are a lot people saying that everything uses a lot of battery. so i did a test to see if it was true. it's not but anyhow i'm not using timescape. there is also no difference in speed. Ram is about 150MB free.
[Xperia Arc General] doministry:
Yes device when used is using battery :D

I have timescape on, 300 hours without reboot, around 100 - 110 MB free,

and I think the biggest battery eater is the screen.
[Xperia Arc General] commodoor:
the screen is great uses less than my Nexus one. The real battery drain comes from 3G. The battery is now a little better.

In plain mode the battery last 1,5 hour on 1% was like wow, disabling 3g also uses less battery (but thisinfo is known)
[Xperia Arc General] ArcOnFire:
Well, I told you what happened in the morning when I woke up from my 5 1/2 hours sleep.

I went to battery usage ->

Display was about 22%

Maps was at 55% (5hr+ awake)

I'm not sure how the hell it can drain battery that much when I already set :

- Data disabled

- 2G

- No Sync

when I went to bed.

Unrelated to "SE default applications", but has something to do with battery life.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StarLog:
If your not going to make use of the carrier network, then you do not need to setup a carrier.

If your going to get a sim and insert it, then you will be using that network, and at that point you can check to see if the correct APN info was inserted from the sim.

So bottom line, if your do not have a sim, do not worry about it.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
If you have a SIM card slot, you have a GSM Tab, so you can definitely rule out Sprint, Verizon, and all the smaller CDMA carriers like US Cellular etc.

Assuming it is a US Tab, that leaves TMo or AT&T, but for most ROM flashing purposes, they can be considered identical (main difference is the supported radio bands).
