Wait lol...Deffinetly the guy who said Nav4all is a good gps app is smokin crack...that gps app was the first gps prog I ever used ..and it was only cuz it was free and I didn't know diddly about TomTOM and that people had actually extracted it and posted it on xda..and first things first... Nav4all is like a cheap european hooker version of a gps application. The people who made that thing really must not of liked themselves..its a kmart version o what gps software should be..I never used an app that lacked everything gps software is supposed to have..it was bare bone..it could only locate maybe half of a satelite and had no turn by turn..no poi..nothing.........

But anywayz TomTom7 is by far the best and user friendly gps software out there..and u guys that are still using TT6...geezus just upgrade to TT7...why wouldn't u? such a better upgrade believe me. And for the people who don't like how the map colors look..just PAY for the more expensve colored maps and search around ull find something u like..I mean I hear that IGO and Garmin are "pretty" looking gps maps and all , but their defintely not as user friendly, as detailed and as easy to use...and im 100% sure theres nothing out their as precise and as accurate as TT7. TOMTOM7 has no lag whatso ever...and the estimated arrival time and when u actually get too the location are accurate to a T!. I mean it can't get any bettter...so until I see other gps software becoming as accurate as TOMTOM, I doubt a lot of us will be switching gps software anytime soon, just look at this simple forum poll...I mean iphone users are dying for TT to be available for the iphone..which I doubt It will be, those flunks are stuck with piss on me googlemaps Lol....

anywayz goodluck on finding a gps software u like, this is my 2 cents on it.

1. iGO

2. Garmin

3. TomTom

Have them all for few years.TomTom used to be the best but iGO is much better at this point.iGo has best maps for Balkan area( Serbia,Montenegro,Bosnia,Croatia,Macedonia,Slovenia...) followed by Garmin.

I never tested any Nav. system at USA but I am traveling to US in August so I will have opportunity to test all these for a month or so.

Forget any software that has memory based maps...having GPS w/ incomplete streets FTL. Even though though they dont give you turn by turn spoken dialogue, 1) Live Search 2) Google.

I was using and voted for Tomtom 6 but with thier lack of support for PDA/mobile naviagation, i have been using iGO 8 for the last week or so and now prefer it to TT in most areas, better graphics (3d terrrain and buildings) more customization and better support, TT is a bit more user frindly though.

But if voting again today i would gofor iGO8.

Copilot

I have alwayd used tomotm 6 but have recently switched to CoPilot 7 (live)

Free traffic via gprs and it works

Free speed cameras via website.

Can use poi in cvs opr ov2 (converts to native when copilot starts)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] mikeeey:
I think TomTom is the most popular therefor most people see it as the best. But in my opinion, TomTom isnt all that great. I mean the graphics look like microsoft paint.

I like iGO the most, graphics are nice, it has 3D mode, displays buildings, has POI's, its very nice:)

I use IGO since first relase for PDA s, It is very good USA and Puerto Rico.I did try once Tomtom but I just notice it is not that good..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] stephw:
I used Tomtom for several years even Tomtom 7 since some week but i installed iGO8 yesterday and i tried today on the road.

iGO is better than tomtom :

- beautiful GUI

- GPS connect much faster

- voice guidance is better and more complete

- interface more fluent

the only bad point is built-in voice : sometimes truncated

for the moment it's all i can say... i will test much longer :D

I use Garmin Mobile XT on my Tilt. I am reasonably happy with it. I have never tried others so can't compare.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] cyjeff:
I know what NOT to use... Mapquest Navigator.

I tried them out... from the beginning... mostly because of their VERY cheap subscription.

However, after insisting that they tagged my license to the IMEA number, they disabled my license when I "put it on too many phones".

I only put it on my one tilt... though through a whole SERIES of flashing ROM's trying to find the perfect one for me.

They saw the ROM changes as device changes.... and wouldn't help me out.

Decent maps... great traffic... crappy customer service.

If you are never going to flash your ROM, they are decent.

TT7

Before i have been using TomTom 7 I had used TomTom 6.

MapShare works perfectly.

Current Traffic-Information and Radar-Warner were downloaded (3G-Connention).

I love TomTom.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] YorikR32:
I run TT6, looking to upgrade TT7 soon maybe. TT6 works well for me in my region, though the maps need updating as a lot of one way streets and no right turns are attempted to be routed by the software.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] ButtonBoy:
Microsoft Live Search

MS Live Search- I have unlimited download plan, and this works very well in the US. Has search and all the features of Google Maps that I need.

Cost me nothing per month, and nothing up front. Why pay for a boatload of outdated map files? Inquiring minds want to know. :D

Helping a Newbie?

I've been reading about GPS software for a few weeks now, and I can't seem to figure out one simple (stupid) key piece of information (and it makes me feel like an idiot):

Where do you get them?

If I wanted iGo 8, Garmin 2008 or TT7 for the US?

Is it a DVD to buy from somewhere like Wal-Mart, and it will install to your PNA or, in my case, an AT&T Tilt (L26_V9)?

Any help someone could provide would be greatly appreciated!

TIA,

Why TT7 is for your MOM

So, I figured that would offend a few, but i am serious...After using TT6 exclusivly, then upgrading to TT7; I decided to try a few others. Navigon, iGO8, Garmin, and of course TT7. Through my limitied research I discovered that many people claim that Navteq maps are more accurate in the US, and TeleAtlas is better in Europe (better = more accurate, etc.). TomTom uses Teleatlas and most the rest use Navteq (Garmin, Google Maps), anyhow TomTom is definitly the easist to use; however, by this i mean a reatrded 3 year old could figure it out. Most of the others would require a fully inteligent 8 year old...with that said, as with most things, the simplest is NOT usually the best (however, I do like replaceing the arrow with your own car), if so we would all have iphones and not WM6.1. OK...anyhow, the real two rivals are iGO8 and Garmin...1) iGO8 has the sweet 3d maps and prob. the nicest graphics, However, Garmin had free traffic over gprs + You have the enitre mapping software on your computer, so you can set up routes etc. Plus you can put only the states you want on your SD card, and finnally, if you use google maps to search for business on your desktop, there is a "send to" button and you can send it to Garmin as a destination...For those three main reasons (also there is a lane predict line on the map whcich is nice).

Now, if you have one of the phones that has the intergrated device that pulls the traffic and weather out of the air (not tilt or kaiser) then i would likely go with iGO 8....

Oh, and just to show about the Teleatlas/Navteq distinction, my brother uses TT7 and was going to a golf out in Illinois, this is a CHicago suburb, so not rural or anything....

9511 W Manhattan Monee Rd

Frankfort, IL 60423

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Green...TF-8&startIndex=&startPage=1&um=1&sa=N&tab=wl

there is the link to Google Maps, where it can easily be seen; yet, there is no way to set the Country Club as a Destination in TT7, it doesn't find any of the roads or the course it self, now I am sure you can set a nearby location as the destination, but should we have to? Of COurse Garmin and iGO8 found it right away....

So, as much as i am confident that my mom could work TT7, the only place i Know she will get to is back home!!!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] NuShrike:
Garmin Mobile XT hands down (I've tried Google Maps, Live, TT6, Navigon):

free traffic data by GPRS/3G and rerouting due to traffic or pre-assigned "avoid" areas/routes

gas stations sorted by distance or price (NOBODY else has sort by price) based on current location/destination/route

maps for almost part of that world that is compatible with every one of their devices

maps that can be freely generated by anybody from raw GIS maps/pictures

MapSource pc-link to coordinate/backup/pre-calculate waypoints/routes and to select only certain regional maps to store on the card -- saves space

topographical maps (for hiking/geocaching/etc)

free, easy access updates to core program

freely browsing the map by clicking around (to find alternative POIs/routes)

loses on:

unbelievably slow route calculation

responds badly to missed turns due to slow route recalculation

slow and CPU expensive/hot? map redraw -- needs OpenGL/D3D/DD support

past-gen and slow POI search (Google is just so much better)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] chedlin:
I am using the Garmin on my Kaiser. I purchased it with the bluetooth GPS, but have cracked it to work with the internal version.

Traffic worked great for a long time. Suddenly it stopped saying I wasn't authorized. At this point I was unable to view gas prices, or anything. Since they don't sell the product in a configuration I want to use (I have an 8gb card) I was very disappointed.

Well, all my online features connect without error, but the traffic data no longer seems meaningful. Has anyone else had any problems with the traffic with or without cracks?

Thank you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] stickydonkey:
I use Garmin XT because in my country there is local development of the street maps and VERY accurate. They only provide in Garmin format. I tried Route66 on the wife's Nokia 6110 Nav using Navteq maps and WHAT A JOKE (my country that is). My home address was 2km up the road from the actual location. So, unless iGo and TT7 can use the Garmin format, i'm stuck with Garmin...

DAMN 3rd world countries!!!

In my opinion, the best Tomtom replacement is currently Sygic Mc Guider. It is as easy to use as TomTom, has newer maps and is cheaper.

I am going to test it a bit further when on holiday, but I am quite impressed with what I have seen so far.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] RojasTKD:
I have TomTom 6 on my phone, but don't like it's choice of routes for longer trips. I have a Garmin stand alone unit and it's much better in this regard. I use TomTom as a back up on my phone for when I don't have my Garmin. In city if I have to find an address it's ok, but for long trips it's a no go for me.

For example going from West Palm Beach, FL to Lakeland, FL set to:

Fastest route - it want to take me all the way north to Orlando then back down via I4 About a 3 hour 42 min trip. Mostly highway thus traveling at higher speeds but drive 205 miles. If I tell it to avoid toll roads it actually faster (3 hr 15 min.) and only four mile longer (why would this not be it's choice for "fastest route"?

Shortest route - it takes me a more direct route through small towns and two lane roads only 172 miles but a LONG 5 hour 42 min trip.

Anyway Garmin routes me through small towns also but take my through Hwy 60 (something TomTom refuses to do even as I'm driving toward Hwy 60, it keep wanting me to go another way) and get me there an about 3 hr. 20min covering 170somthing miles.

Seem Garmin does a much better job at balencing time and distance when calculating it routes.

Even in town it wants me to take ways that really don't seem very smart.

I may eventually going to try either CoPilot 7 live or Garmin for my phone.

I do like TomTom UI and ability to choose different options, but this is secondary to route choices to me. A GPS need to get me their the best way possible above all.

Are you comfortable in your own skin? Is your phone comfortable in its skin? Rate this thread to express how you deem the skin on the TCL 10L. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it adds just the right amount of features, it's visually pleasing, and overall it's additive to the experience. If this is a Nexus phone (you didn't think we hand-wrote all of these prompts, did you?) then use this rating to indicate how the latest version of Android looks to you.

Pretty basic for skin but nice to see a cool animation when charging and shows the rectangle show it fill up green until full to show fully charged. The only issue is, that I would like to see when plugged in charging to show on screen the percentage change while charging, even when screen is off, like the Samsung device do. Just a blank screen and you have to unlock device to see how far the charge is going. There is really no customization on the skin. Themes is just TCL one or classic. Wallpapers basic. Nothing like a store to add more themes, icons or wallpapers. You have to download and sync your phone and add your own stuff to customize but no luck with icons unless you use a launcher.
[TCL 10L Real Life Review] vordhosbn:
OEM software / additions are significantly with the Android 11 update compared to how present it was in the Android 10 build. This is a welcome change. It mostly stays out of the way and seems to provide a fairly close to stock Android experience with 11.
