The G60 phones specs list the os as 'Linux' rather than Android....

The M20 runs WM6.1

I would love to see Garmin Nav on the G1....I dont like andnav.

Maybe google maps will have full navigation options soon.

[G1 General] momentarylapseofreason:
Screw paying 10 dollars a month for something that will still use internet to get information. Hopefully someone will come up with a way to save the map information.
[G1 General] masr1979:
It's like they think we are iphone owners or something :P
[G1 General] fami:
If the picture featured on the engadget article are accurate and not just PR-mockups, then TeleNav has live traffic updates. I paid $300 for my Tom Tom, and while I received official map updates and live traffic updates for free initially, after a trial become services billed monthly. Considering that, then it's absolutely reasonable to pay $10 a month for those features.
[G1 General] Binary100100:
I don't know about $10 a month. Aren't we using our own data to feed the updated map to our phone. So we are already paying to receive it. Why should we pay again? I think a one time fee should be enough. But at least we're not paying for the app itself other then the montly cost. Right?
[G1 General] derekedw:
$10/month isn't bad if it can run as GPS w/out internet. When you're traveling cross state you don't always get coverage. If you get free map updates as they come out, traffic, etc....great deal, really it is.
[G1 General] marioiscoool:
yea but our g1s dont have the hardware that actual gps's have to get information from satelite, we just have the google Locale and 3G network. no service on our phones means no internet/possibly no gps

this why TomTom can charge a monthly fee, and there is no reason we should be paying that monthly for data transfers that we already pay for. they are the only real working live nav out there for the g1 so they are trying to make money..

wait til another app comes out for about $30 one-time fee, teleNav will drop in a week.
[G1 General] bearheart:
Well lets see what will come out next
[G1 General] momentarylapseofreason:
MarioIsAnIdiot:

What information do you think GPS gets off the satellite? It gets A) Official time and B) a signal that allows the receiver to triangulate the signals by measuring the difference in time it takes to arrive on Earth.

All you would need to do is write software that is not "cloud" based (where it needs a reliable internet connection at all times). This could be simply done by adding a larger memory card and a set of maps. The satellites above Earth do NOT send information regarding traffic, weather, maps, or anything else for that matter. The only reason they send an official (atomic clock) time is because that is needed since the signals being triangulated are arriving millionths of a second in difference. Therefore, you need to sync all the times together to get accurate readings.
[G1 General] pagubg:
That is correct.
[G1 General] Binary100100:
I just did a search on Market for Telenav and an app called Just A Stupid Test App came up for $0.99. it mentions nothing of telenav or even that it connects with GPS hardware. I'll try the Telenav software for $10 a month because I realized that I paid about the same for the TomTom service for traffic updates anyway. I'm going on a trip tomorrow and it sucks that I wont get the software until the day after. Figures! I'm tempted to try downloading this app on the market (Stupid Test App) but honestly... how am I going to feel if it's something completely useless? But I'll be pissed it it turns out to be the Telenav app that I could have used on my trip tomorrow. Sigh... what to do...
[G1 General] tf442:
Telenav available

Downloaded Telenav this morning when I got up. I only have a 7 mile drive to work, so I really didn't get much testing, but it looks good.
[G1 General] bearheart:
where did you donwload it from? LINK MY FRIEND

oops i mean

can we get the link please?

hihihi
[G1 General] tf442:
Telenav.com is where you download Telenav. You have to sign up and give a credit card number that they will use if you don't cancel in the first 30 days.
[G1 General] Binary100100:
Go here with your G1.

http://ota.telenav.com/ota/tm

Or you can just use the file that I uploaded because I'm such a nice guy.

But you'll probably have to sign up first.
[G1 General] bearheart:
you are a nice guy indeed

i am going to see if i know how to install this

hihihi
[G1 General] bearheart:
still need to find a way to get like a ghost account

hihihh

but the installer worked
[G1 General] Binary100100:
Ghost account?

I don't know how you're going to be able to do that.

We (as in people as xda) don't discuss warez or ways to crack stuff that should be paid for. That's a one way ticket to the Banned List.
[G1 General] bearheart:
a ghost account is not a hack account but an testers developers account that has like 1 month use that you do not have the risk that you have to cancel or you loose money but they cancel it if you do not react to make it a paying account
[G1 General] Binary100100:
I see. I don't think they do. Why else would they have the 30 day trial period? I may be wrong though. I already set mine up and put in about 20 different addresses to the telenav website and catagorized them. I then went to the telenav app on my g1 and they all synced with the website. Pretty convenient. I don't see this being available on a "ghost account" and it's one of their "perks" with the service.
[G1 General] mumbo_jumbo:
none of these above i pick IGO8
[G1 General] minty1978:
Yes, you do need to sign up. It tries to check your account on first start up.
[G1 General] lbcoder:
For everyone's information;

I haven't tried it yet since I just noticed it this morning (I'm at work and only have windows available here and will absolutely not connect my phone to it for fear that it will screw something up) there have been some *REALLY* exciting developments on the andnav2 front...

1) downloadable map packs (including one covering continental US and southern ontario),

2) a java application (not for the phone) for generating YOUR OWN map packs based on OSM data.

** what this means:

no data connection required!
[G1 General] borodin1:
With that in mind... how do you cancel? I searched around for a while and there's no link. Of course they conveniently subscribe you for the next 10 years (not kidding). I'd pay but I don't really like it, seems a little slow. Got to give them stars thought for finding every address that I've put in so far. So yeah, if anybody know how to unsubscribe - give me a shout. Otherwise I'll have to call them... which I don't want to do. I should be able to cancel online if I can sign up online... you know:cool:
[G1 General] JanetPanic:
From the Telenav FAQ:
[G1 General] PayableOnDeath:
thats odd, this is the response back I got from them
[G1 General] bearheart:
These people do not even know what their company wants or do, ¨#%¨¨&¨&

well i have heard from ppl that telenav it is cool but once they leave holland it will charge them roaming costs so that is not good, cause from holland to Poland roaming will cost me 40 arms and 27 legs.

I hope someone builds something sexy soon for the g1, cause AndNav and And Nav2 are cool but not up to standards yet.
[G1 General] Seenochino:
telenav works great, i downloaded it a few days after it came out and it works flawlessly. $10/mo. is a bit steep so i dont know if i'll keep it but i will say its a really nice app to have if you use navigation alot.
[G1 General] Mikey:
i see it this way, for real traffic-updates and not having to download maps onto your phone/card. I see it worth the $8something a month i'm paying. :)
[G1 General] borodin1:
I see it in a completely different way. Let me download maps on my SD, ditch the data connection requirement and it will worth $40-$50 one time fee. I don't need traffic updates, and in most cases by the time TeleNav figures out about traffic it's too late to get off the freeway anyways.
[G1 General] bearheart:
for me a app that can be completly installed would be better

cause data roaming charges will kill me

that is why i would like a app to put on my phone.

i would pay that i would, as long as i have it on my phone to guide me.
[G1 General] f4phantomii:
Ding! Ding! Ding! Winnnar!

I believe this is how the majority of the user community feels.

I think the people who *like* TeleNav are folks who only make incidental use of the GPS nav abilities. They obviously don't travel a great deal and have never been in a situation where you are in the middle of frickin' nowhere.

Someone with TeleNav service....try making the drive between Edwards AFB, CA and Las Vegas, NV. You better stop at one of the two gas stations along the way and pick up a paper map, cause there isn't enough electron density in the air out there to move a dust particle.

Alternately, try making a trip from Savannah, GA to Athens, GA...yep...you'll be stopping somewhere between Swainsboro and sure-do-got-a-pretty-mouth to ask the locals for directions. About the only thing your phone is good for during 2+ hours of that trip is using the compass app. Go ahead and put it in Airplane mode to conserve your battery.

And well...there's still an awful lot of the rural US that's only covered by GPRS....if any connection at all. I wouldn't recommend trying to download map tiles on that one.
[G1 General] Filipe.Nogueira:
No, i dont know how it is the reality in US but here in Portugal my company gave me one 3g sim card dedicated with no limitation in data traffic, so i really need a good GPS navigation system, if possible one that do not need any kind of subscription...

One GPS navigation system, without subscription, that uses Google maps but with the ability of turn to turn in the road, i call this a Dream :D
[G1 General] bearheart:
Well i have an unlimited too, but that is unlimited in Holland. that means when i stay in Holland i do not get extra costs. but as soon as I pass the boarder (that i do a lot for Capoeira events) I will be paying roaming data charges

So one that i can fully install on my G1 will be a dream come through
[G1 General] Filipe.Nogueira:
Yes, you have a point there...

I'm thinking that Android OS is very recent and need some time for Professional use. I'm using it but im think i will buy some PDA with windows mobile, just because my professional needs.
[G1 General] bearheart:
Well I am using mine professionaly

so when will they make that GPS OS ?

I tried Wisepilot for 5 days, do not seem that bad, but still the roaming...

we need a fully installable program for g1phones

and really, i do not mind paying if it gets me to where i need to go.
[G1 General] bearheart:
Did Anybody Try NAV4ALL?

or know how it works ?
[G1 General] bearheart:

[G1 General] dbpack:
andnav2 is working in the US now.
[G1 General] acejoker25000:
nav4all

nav4all is a great program for turn by turn directions!! ive used telenav and this and i prefer this cuz its free for like 10 yrs!! it has tons of countries to navigate through!! it takes getting used to to navigate through the menus believe me!! but once u figure is out u can fund nethng!! u can search for addresses or points of interest!! and while navigating u can look for the closest gas stations and navigate to them then continue to ur destination!! it is kind of basic in views of the screens it shows!! but u do get the speed limit of the road ur on and it changes realtime!! u can change from mph to kph and change whether u want to use highways or not!! all in all im satisfied with nav4all and wud recomend it to neone!! was not so pleased with andnav2 i cudnt even find a theme park close to my hous when i searched within a 30 mi radius!!
[G1 General] bearheart:
Well can someone give me a summary of all the programs now on the market that dos not have to have continuous connection with the web (so i can go outside my country without getting a big bill)

So programs that are to be completely installed on your phone.... that work with G1 that is
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Copilot. Thats all.
[G1 General] masr1979:
You could also "theoretically" make the mapacks for AndNv2. I say theoretically because I tried and tried and it kept getting corrupted, so I never actually got to do it myself.

Copilot is working pretty well for me though. I'll have to give AndNav2 another go now that I see they have a US server.
[G1 General] cedricberger:
Doing this you can have the maps while travelling, but in AndNav2, to get a route you need the server.
[G1 General] wywywywy:
Sygic, which is my fav sat nav app, should be coming to Android real soon.

And there are rumours about iGo 8 coming to Android.

There is obviously Garmin is the pipeline with their upcoming Android phone.
[G1 General] NeoBlade:
Having TomTom on the G1 would be pretty sweet indeed so hopefully one day it will becoem reality. Still love my N95 as well as it has loads of useful apps, including TomTom. Will check out Sygic though.
[G1 General] lbcoder:
I doubt that will ever happen. Tomtom seems married to their proprietary devices now.

As I have said, get copilot. It is *the same* thing as tomtom, just written by a different company.
[G1 General] frko:
That's just BS.

TomTom sells WM based navcore 7.9 navigation

TomTom Navcore runs on top of a Linux kernel as Android does

TomTom is releasing an iPhone app shortly

Is clearly joining the handheld market

Copilot is not at all comparable to TomTom Navcore
[G1 General] lbcoder:
As I said, they seem to be phasing that stuff out in favor of their own hardware.

That has absolutely no relevance whatsoever.

I might believe that IF I see it. Can't see it getting through apple's nazi process though since it competes with their debranded googlemaps in some respects.

??? What are you smoking?

I use both and they are, for all practical purposes, identical.
[G1 General] nightcrawler2512:

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] fiendslyr:
thank you. I hope it works.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] BlueAnt1958:
Assuming you are serious

I'm gonna play nice with this as your posts would indicate you are somewhat new to this sort of thing :D

Basically download the file from MS to your pc or laptop.

Sync your phone to PC or Laptop using activesync. Once you have done this run the .exe file on your pc or laptop and it will automatically extract, install to your pc/laptop and install what is required to your phone. Done. :)

Quite easy really.

Oh, a word of advice.

One would assume you are installing this so you can run Advanced config or something of that nature. Pls pls ensure you read up on tweaking prior to making changes. Advanced Config is basically a GUI interface to your phones registry. Bugger your reg up and its hard reset time baby!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] fiendslyr:
nah, im not that new. I already installed .net. Now that post again was due to something random I don't know about. However, i would like to know if i am supposed to uninstall the previous version of .net or does the touch pro go ahead and use the newly installed one. I'm wondering this because I know some people were having this problem.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] emesbe:
You do not uninstall version 2 -- some programs need that instead of 3.5. As for configuring, use .net config. Go here for instructions and download: http://www.modaco.com/content/windo...act-framework-3-5-without-upgrading-your-rom/

Someone posted this question last March in the General forum (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=376935) and got no answers, so I am asking it again here. Is there a utility to dial the 7 or 10 digits that you currently have selected in an app other than Phone? Either through a popup menu item or an app that I can assign to a button, etc.?

Also, is there a way to erase 1 digit (in the Diamond Phone dialer) - like a backspace? I do not seem to have one.

Thanks!

On my TyTN II, I have an application reading the Processor information displaying on the WM6.1 About screen. While MSM7200-400MHz displays correctly on the About screen, the application reveals that the string value is actually " MSM7200-400MHz " with some additional characters before and after the text.

Hello All,

I've been searching for such an app for quite a long time and can't find it. It's amazing that I can find almost everything for your windows mobile platform but the simple finger-friendly application is missing (I have Samsung Omnia). I don't like threaded messages, it's just annoying so Vito SMS-Chat or Extreme Text are not good for me.

I need a program working in a few simple steps...

- view inbox on startup with a possibility of replay

- choose New message and input the text with big on-screen keyboard

- choose recepients (one or few, from the contact list)

- SEND.

That's it... I don't believe it's so hard to do such a software so please tell me why the hell nobody can do this!
[General Topics] bruddachuck:

[General Topics] 66mustang:
I've achieved this by using HTC Home, I click on the number of messages and I get my inbox. If I want to create a new message I've mapped a button to launch a blank message. I use HTC's Phone Pad as my input keyboard - it takes up a lot of real estate on the screen, but you can text very quickly with it.

None of these came out of the box with my O2 XDA Stellar, it took a few months of trial and error and searching for apps to find the ideal solution (for me).

Let me know if you want to see some screen grabs - I'll have to download some screen grab software...
