I like this calendar that I have in my current ROM: http://phandroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/rosie4-calendar-widget.jpg

However, I may be switching ROM's. Would it simply take finding that particular calendars' .apk and pulling it? Or is it more complicated than that?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] NguyenHuu:
depends, if you are on a hero rom and going to another hero rom, then that calendar will already be present since its a hero application. but if you are going to a non-hero rom then you cannot. there is an alternative calendar like that in development right now in the application forum in the dream section. it is called Pure Grid Calendar by Koxx
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] staunty:
I am on a hero ROM right now. Was thinking of switching to a different ROM like Cyanogen so that I can play around with loading navigation. I still haven't gotten a concrete answer whether the current navigation hack is limited to only a few donut ROM's...OR, have people figured out how to do it on any ROM?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MurderDeathKill:
The navigation works on ANY 1.6 rom. Hero is 1.5. If the rom runs 1.6 then its a go. Here's the link:

How do i determine if its rooted? Bought it second hand. Could it hurt my phone to try and root it again if its already rooted?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] phatmanxxl:
download one of the terminal apps from the market, open the terminal and type su, if you get a # symbol you got root.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] strikeIII:
When I was using 6.5 ROMs the Volume keys would be disabled if the device is locked but with 6.5.1 the are not. So every time I put it on vibrate it eventually comes out of vibrate when the buttons get pressed in my pocket or in my holster. Does anyone know of any registry keys to edit to disabled them when the phone is locked. Locked meaning when I hold the End Key down for a few seconds to lock the device. Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] myrandex:
I tried this which I found in the Touch Pro forum:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd]

"DisableVolumeKeyDuringLock"=dword:1

It failed. And I agree, that is a frustrating aspect of new 6.5.1 roms. That and so many of them have that lame old WM5 volume graphic installed on them.

5. The download at the end of the post

STEPS:

1. Download this

for most Donut builds (Cyanogen based)

.

2. Place in the root of your sdcard

3. Reboot in recovery

3. Select chose update.zip (or rename the downloaded file to update.zip)

4. Select update_navigation.zip

5. Reboot

Extended steps:

If "Navigate" doesn't show up the first time:

1. Go to settings

2. Click on applications

3. Click on Manage applications

4. scroll to apps

5. click on Maps

6. Clear data

Q&A

Q: Why was facebook removed??

A: it caused to many issues, and the market one works fine.

Q: What is the latest changes??

A: I removed the build.prop file completely in hopes that it will work without it, did for me... you tell me :)

Q: What took so long?!?!

A: I had H1N1, b|0W me.

Q: Does this work with AOSP?

A: doesn't look like it, at least not so far, I did adjust some build props right from them but never got any feedback to let it out to the masses.

Q: Does this break CM-Updater?

A: No, it shouldn't.

Q: Do i need to reflash this every time?

A: if you want navigation, yes. Every update reverts the build props back to the old ones.

Q: Does this work outside of the USA?

A: Yes. BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT YOU MUST FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY!

1. First navigate between 2 USA addresses (just enter them in to get the navigate option to show up)

2. Make a shortcut on your home screen with the address you want to navigate to.

3. Make sure turn by turn is checked.

4 click it nub.

5. drive to the location

6. brag "o mai android is wai b3tt3r thian UR ip0ne."

7. hope to god it brings you back home, otherwise buy a map.

If your paid apps are not working, either wait until midnight, for caches to clear, or flash from scratch...

IE: recovery - rooted cyano - Cyano update - navi update

(p.s not responsible if you drive over a bridge following the GPS, that's stupidity)

(p.p.s don't brick your shaz and blame me or anyone else for that matter, you blew it)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fishman0919:
Not seeing anything different. I'm using a MT3G with CM-4.2.4.

Tried...

*EDIT*

There is possibly one more step....

..try this if it doesn't work..

1. Settings
2. Applications
3. Manage Applications
4. Find maps
5. Clear data
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] theomajigga:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fishman0919:

New maps but no navigation
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cursordroid:
I would be careful with this app. Sure it's nice to have it running on your Magic, but remember when Cyanogen relased his ROMs with Google apps included?

Pulling this Google Maps from any other ROM is in clear violation of the license.

I'd prefer that our community stay legal and not attract any negative attention.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:
good point, but it seems to me that Cyanogen is the only one that is following that rule. Dwang and Amon_Ra have stock ROM's that include the google apps as well, but they don't get any legal action taken against them, but I don't know why this new rule only applies to Cyanogen and not everyone else. All the Hero ROM's also include Google apps as well. It seems that the violation of the license has only affected Cyanogen and it seems unfair to me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] theomajigga:
agreed. and if i get one it comes down, thats just life :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Zeroeffekt:
No service No Maps

I've got a Rogers 32a Sapphire running RAv1.6.2. After installing the update I had No Service, APN setting were Blank and the maps app had a new icon and it Forced closed when opened every time. I did try clearing the maps cache and restarting the phone, but it didn't help.

I made a back up before installing the update, so its all back to normal now. Have any suggestions on what went wrong or anything else i can try to get it working??

Thanks

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] theomajigga:
Personally I'm sure it has to do with the 32A board..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fishman0919:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tazz9690:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fishman0919:

I got this working on my 32A rogers.

I used the CM 4.2.4, and installed "[EBI1/32A] CyanogenMod EBI1/32A Port 4.2.4" - thanks Radix999!

It didnt work at first, so i did the clear map thing, and it still didnt work.

So then I downloaded google voice from market, installed it, then uninstalled it, then reinstalled it, and now the navigate option is available! - thanks xEM1x for the tip! - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4936615&postcount=55
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] m1k3-:
I disagree. I got it working on my 32a. I'd like to share how I got it working, but I honestly don't know what I did. The maps app would launch, but there was no nav. I cleared data in the manage programs menu and it mysteriously started working.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bluecluenj:
Great stuff, thank you Theo! Worked like a charm :D

One small caution: Once installed, it somehow causes certain apps to not show up in market. I did a clean wipe and reinstalled Cyan 4.2.4. Immediately afterwards, I installed this update and then began getting all my stuff back from the market. There were a few apps that didnt show up anymore, like Pure Calendar widget, Camera Zoom and Taskiller Pro.

I fixed it by wiping and re-installing the ROM, then DL all my stuff, then doing this update. Guess the update tells the phone its something that doesnt work with all apps yet (2.0)????
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rydr1:
Nothing we do in these forums is necessary, they are all wanted features. I guess people can wait for them that is why installing this is an option. :)

@hughyb, I read somewhere that at this time the nav. is only usable in the United States.

@MurderDeathKill, did you forget where you live? Bread crumbs worked for me before, but this is a better way to find home.:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rydr1:
Lets remember that big companies become intimidated by someone that has a lot of followers or supporters. This only gives the community a stronger back bone to do what they please. Since cyanogen is well known they decided to hit him with those rules.

Back to the original post. I HAVE IT WORKING ON DWANG'S rom. :D

I had to do what some of the guys here suggested, remove and re-install Google Voice and run it even if you dont have an active account.

I also downloaded the SpeechSynthesis from the market and then cleared the map data.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mattinglis:
Warning, this update knocked out my network coverage, i cant get any signal cant search for networks. 32B here

had to do a nandroid restore to get it back.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] chucky80:
Thanks a bunch. Okay so here is how I got everything working.

1. backed up everything using backup for root users and save backup on desktop.

2. booted the phone in recovery mode

3. wipe/factory reset 4 times(just my preference)

4. partition sd fat32+ext2+swap

5. convert ext2 to ext3, scroll down to usb on and install rootbase rom, cyanogen rom, theme (if desired) into the sd card root. Cy rom is on the dream section. DO NOT DOWNLOAD 424cywm, but the plain 4.2.4 rom

6.flash rooted base, after install reboot

7. skip through everything, once phone is setup to donut base, power off

8.reboot in recovery, flash cyanogen 4.2.4 rom, reboot onced installed

9.make sure all is working, reboot into recovery again

10. flash theme, flash navigation update, reboot

11. follow theomajigga instructions for install

12. dowload the Facebook droid apk from the forum, go to market, sign in and accept terms of service and install astro from the market.

13. install facebook droid apk using astro, sign in, and FB is now working.

14. Browser Fc, go to settings, applications, manage, browser and clear data and now browser works.

15. connect Usb, mount, drag backup folder into sd card root, turn off usb storage after transfer is complete. go to market and download again backup for root users if not already there.

16. select back, allow root and select all, restore and you should have all your apps including market database apps in backup. I think this concludes it. folks. Again,

BIG THANKS TO THEOMAJIGGA FOR THIS APP. EVERYTHING IS WORKING

P.S.

I downloaded the droid wallpapers zip and extracted them to a new folder on my desktop and deleted the ones I have already, then when I go to wall papers, under pictures, I have the droid wall papers, all I do is crop and set as wallpaper and it is done.

P.S. I'm still waiting for them to crack the sprint apps. Yeah, I paid $700 for Sapphire on ebay before it came out and the iphone 3GS costs the same and puts the mytouch to shame, plain and simply... So I have no problem

with using these apps. The way I see it, aside from legal issues, we deserve this at the very least...

It seems like it breaks the facebook app.

Once I had installed it CM Updater informed me that I had an update available. I checked my settings and it said that I was on 4.2.4 (even tho I had recently updated to 4.2.5). So I reapplied the update and all of a sudden the facebook app was gone.

I also had to uninstall/reinstall google voice to get the navigation working again.

***Edit***

Thanks to google I found the apk for the facebook app. I installed it after updating back to 4.2.5 and it works.

Something strange though...When I started the install I had a pop up that said I would be replacing the app (assuming the one from the first install) but it wasn't in running under my system processes and it didn't show up in my applications list.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mikeybags:
Edited my original post because I figured it out.

I just pulled the .apk from the zip file included in this thread, moved it to SD card, and installed using astro file manager, and all is well again. CMUpdater isn't confused (says 4.2.5), Nav still works (though that was never an issue for me), and the facebook is reinstalled and working.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cranked:
Well, I couldn't figure out why connectivity was lost. I was using the stock HTC 1.6/Donut ROM, so I figured it may have been because my ION wasn't rooted.

So, I re-applied the 1.6 ROM, then applied Cyanogen's 1.4 recovery, then installed Dwang's latest 1.6 ROM v1.12 (with Navigation). All is well now...

Can you explain this a little more. I need more detail. For instance it says you need a rom like cyan, but doesnt tell you wen to flash that.

Ok I installed the custom recovery,

I reboot the phone into recovery mode

then what?

wipe

install google nav,

then 1.6 flash, then cyan????
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] glhturbo:

Install/flash 1.6 rooted base

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] The_Chrome_Coyote:
works great, but whats with the top of the screen in the Facebook app? It looks like there should be something there like tabs for navigating the screens but its just blue and white.

Also, I cant comment on losing features of latitude bc I never used it, but the navigation works great.

I did a clean install using Cyanogen's latest. Next I just need to throw the new youtube app on and Ive got all I need from 2.0 for now. :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] glhturbo:
That is just the header for the "News feed" feature of Facebook. The app takes you there first by default. Hit the MENU key and select "Home" and it should take you to the main Facebook Navigation screen.

I'm thinking that the new YouTube app is next on my list too. ;)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] flappjaxxx:
Unzip the .zip file and go to system folder

Edit in your favorite text editor build.prop

change this line:

ro.modversion=CyanogenMod-4.2.4

to:

ro.modversion=CyanogenMod-4.2.5

Save the file and put it on sdcard

Open a terminal on your handset and type:

su

then enter

then type in the terminal:

mount -o remount,rw /system

then type in terminal:

cp /sdcard/build.prop /system/

Then reboot the phone

Once you update even with this zip you are still running CM 4.2.5 but it identifies itself as 4.2.4. This will fix the 4.2.5 identifier issue.

You'll be running 4.2.5 and it will identify itself correctly

I hope this helps
