I'm surprised TomTom haven't introduced this 3D Landmark, etc to their mobile products (or any other?). In fact the design hasn't changed in ages!

I've got both the Sygic and Co-Pilot products running on my Android. Not had a chance to properly test them out. Co-Pilot seems a bit more 'polished' appearance wise.
[Desire Themes and Apps] n-j-f:
Had a response from Sygic today

Thank you for your e-mail. I would like to inform you that application Aura will be available also on Android device. In this moment I can't give your exact date, but it should be available during upcoming couple of weeks. Thank you for understanding!

Hope 'couple of weeks' isn't a typo. Unfortunately, in a later email they said they did not think there would be an upgrade path from Mobile Maps.
[Desire Themes and Apps] hot-fuzz:
I tried to rentall Sygic to my Desire tonight but it cmae up with the error that it was already registered on another device. REALLY ??

That was the last thinkg i did with it. Copilot reigns supreme on my phone now.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Staticsoul:
Whats the price of co-pilot on the android market?

I don't want to spend a fortune on software the phone is expensive enough :P
[Desire Themes and Apps] hot-fuzz:
Check it here :

[Desire Themes and Apps] gogol:
I will definitely wait for the Sygic Aura, really like its 3D maps ...

Too bad, they wont provide upgrade path from Sygic Mobile Maps ...

Right now, I will use TomTom on WM :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] pee_cee:
Bit obvious I know, but once you're in Sygic, press the side volume up button. It seems to be independant to the rest of the phone's volume.

Its working on my phone.
[Desire Themes and Apps] payneardo:
No sound

I emailed them and got a different application sent to me and then sounds worked. I then tried via bluetooth and it did not stream the sounds through it, I emailed them back and they said I have to replace my £200 bluetooth stereo. Now unistalled and gone back to co-pilot and asked for a refund !!!
[Desire Themes and Apps] dwj:
That is interesting. I also emailed Sygic about Aura and I have just had a reply from them saying that Aura for android will be available sometime in 4th quarter of 2010!
[Desire Themes and Apps] rbbatti:
i had the same sound problem with sygic maps 9 on my Desire, i tried sygic maps 10 and it works perfectly
[Desire Themes and Apps] payneardo:
sygic maps 10

Hi is that a free upgrade from 9 ???

and how do I get it ??

Cheers

Dave

** EDIT, just been on there site and requested it and it says it wil send me a link soon :0, Hope this solves my problem too **
[Desire Themes and Apps] _Dejan_:
Hi,

Im try Sygic 10 v8.06 from htcmania forum and copy files to CD card, and install it(run installer from explorer) Then Im in menu run Sygic but it is very slow and unresponseable... On my WinCE 6 GPS device with 600Mhz run Sygic(7.71.10095) very good and fast...
[Desire Themes and Apps] Phaed:
Sry man, I've Sygic Mobile Maps 10 v8.06 and all works great, it's just perfect! (unlike Mobile Maps 9 which gives no sound on my phone).

Moreover, this last version has a better touch home interaction (we can scroll through menus)
[Desire Themes and Apps] _Dejan_:
Maybe has this happen because Im run it without maps and GPS turned on?

Now Im copy EU maps into it, activate maps and run it with disabled GPS it run ok and fast. I will test it on monday with turned GPS on...
[Desire Themes and Apps] Educky:
for update to Sygic Mobile Maps 10 use this Link http://www.sygic.com/setupandroid

v.8.12
[Desire Themes and Apps] n-j-f:
Thanks. I downloaded on my phone but it only installed 9 (which I already have). Did I do something wrong?
[Desire Themes and Apps] payneardo:
cheerd for the link

I have reinstalled the maps and everything for mobile maps 9 before and installed the link for mobile maps 10 but this just opens and closes on my desire ??

Do I have to install 9 first and get it up and running and then install v10 afterwards ??

Cheers

Dave

PS and the link does say mobile maps 10 :)

** Updated **

I have installed v9 and activated it and then installed mobile maps 10 (from the link provided) over the top of it and it just crashes :( The mobile maps 10 screen loads and then back to home screen
[Desire Themes and Apps] n-j-f:
I found v10 somewhere else but exactly the same happens to me. :(
[Desire Themes and Apps] payneardo:
I have emailed their support to ask how long the update will take to be sent after registering for it, Will post what they say :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] pwy:
Just noticed that Sygic Aura Singapore & Malaysia is available in the iPhone App Store. (AU store, AUD 69.99).

Wondering if I should wait for the Android version..... probably not.... will take ages, first will be iPhone, iPhone OS 4, iPhone xx .... :(
[Desire Themes and Apps] payneardo:
email from support

Just got an email from support and according to this it looks like v10 is not out for andorid ???

I did also ask about why I do not get sound from mobile maps 9 as well.

**** MESSAGE FROM SUPPORT ****

Dear Sir,

It's because Android 2.x is not officially compatible with SMM09 yet. In attachment is beta installer which should fix your problem for now. Please provide us feedback if it's working for you.

You still haven't received reply, because update is still not available. It should be soon.

In case of any questions and feedbacks, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for contacting support and for your interest in our products.

Best regards,

SYGIC Technical Support
[Desire Themes and Apps] _Dejan_:
Have anyone problem with very unresponseable sygic when turn on internet connection in sygic? When I turned it on all is so slow and unresponseable...
[Desire Themes and Apps] PauloJ5:
I always had Tomom on my winmo phones. And installed co-pilot last week on the desire as no TT available. I can safely say I will not go back. Co-pilot is much much better.
[Desire Themes and Apps] lambrospower:
I have sygic mobile maps 10 with Cyprus and Greece maps and it works amazing with multilanguage directions available and warnings and everything!
[Desire Themes and Apps] payneardo:
Which app did you use to install ??? The one included in this thread or a different one ??

Cheers

Dave
[Desire Themes and Apps] Bart1981:
Forget sygic, just use the adjusted version of Motonav/iGoMyWay...

Way better

:P
[Desire Themes and Apps] Kynddelic:
No iGO is available on the market, how do you do that ?

Thanks
[Desire Themes and Apps] Bart1981:
There is an other topic here on xda in de G1 subforum about iGOMyWay there you can find an adjusted Motonav apk file for Android phones with a resolution of 480x800
[Desire Themes and Apps] Ethania:
I think the resolution on Sygic MM 10 is pretty bad.

On my desire it looks a bit blure.

Any solutions?
[Desire Themes and Apps] nwijma:
Same problem here, looks blurry on Desire and crisp on a Hero. Maybe no native WVGA but some kind of upscaling?
[Desire Themes and Apps] kikius:
on my desire, sygic works smooth and with no problems, my only discontent is that for my country, sygic thought that is not necessary to update the maps, au contraire, they downgraded the romanian maps from 23 MB in 7.6 version to only 3 MB in 10.0 version. Welldone, sygic, glad to meet your intelligent software developpers!
[Desire Themes and Apps] Ethania:
Guess we won't se any high resolution UI for a while then.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Ethania:
Found another wierd thing today.

I was trying to navigate to one of my contacts.

None of my contacts shows up in the contact "nav to" list.

Any suggestiones on this problem?
[Desire Themes and Apps] blader:
I have found that Cheltenham in UK doesn't show up, postcodes in Cheltenham work ok, but when entering an address manually it just won't bring up the city name! Anyone else have this?
[Desire Themes and Apps] savvase:
can you please send me the Cyprus map (.pak) and the mlm file? Thanks
[Desire Themes and Apps] Joh@n:
I also use Sygic and after 3 weeks usage I must say it works quite ok. I used a Touch Diamond with TomTom before, but the Desire is much faster with Sygic. For me there are no issues with Sygic and it looks all really OK :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] nwijma:
Any chance to compare it with sygic on a Hero or other low-res android phone? When I compare it to the same version installed on a Hero, the Hero version looks much crisper and better.
[Desire Themes and Apps] harrispo:
I've been looking EVERYWHERE for a map of Cyprus! Can you please upload it with instructions on how to install? Pretty please?!

Ate filoui mou... kame to gia emas tous ftoxous tis diasporas :P
[Desire Themes and Apps] lambrospower:
MOD EDIT - Warez link removed

download this and place the content of it into a folder named 'sygic' on your sdcard.

the structure must be:

sdcard->sygic (and there are three folders Drive, Maps, Res)

then you install the program using the setupandroid.apk and when you open the program and choose the map of cyprus use the keygen that's inside the maps folder to register it.
[Desire Themes and Apps] JackalJackalJackal:
Hi, I have a problem. After installing Sygic Mobile Maps 10 on my HTC Desire menu slightly blurry. Is there a solution ?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Sillysod:
I used Co-pilot before, but now use Navigon & will not change back!

Being on a Motorbike, like the way it reads the road name to you too.
[Desire Themes and Apps] schalmers:
Hi, I am also having the same issue when trying to navigate to contacts with Sygic 8.12 (and 8.06). Did you ever find a solution or does anyone know the solution?

Actually the Sygic app becomes completely frozen and I need to force close to get off the blank contact screen
[Desire Themes and Apps] qwertysimator:
Hello, I have the same problem. Opening Contacts shows two "null" entries. I found this in a iPhone forum dated to 2009: "Navigating to contacts provides the same "problem" as with any of the others. If you have not got your contacts properly formatted, Sygic won't understand the address."

Any idea of contact format that Sygic understands? Thanks.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Ethania:
Have anyone figured out if there is a highreslolution UI for sygic 10?

Is there a better GPS app if you would like a smooth looking app?

Sygic Aura for android would be great!
[Desire Themes and Apps] pa.pn2:
sygic mobiloe maps 8.16 is out

[Desire Themes and Apps] gogol:

[Desire Themes and Apps] JackCarv3r:
Have You tried Sygic Aura?

It's Rock!!!
[Desire Themes and Apps] gogol:
Sygic Aura for Android? Hmm ... I thought not yet released.
[Desire Themes and Apps] butterfly666:
I use Sygic Aura. This version works great. Instant gps fix (5sec) The old version (Sygic 10) 1 or 2 min for the fix.
[Desire Themes and Apps] hija31:
Using Aura with SD-card support and it works fine.

Aura is still a beta .

Although it says SD support it only transfers about 3Mb to SD the other 8Mb is still on the phone.
[Desire Themes and Apps] galati:
Sygic aura for android phones v 2.01 actualy the best navigation software

[Desire Themes and Apps] luv2vexx:
i am using Sygic mobile maps 10 and everything is working fine. does the job and looks the business.
[Desire Themes and Apps] ddps:
I use sygic 10 and Aura, works fine too, voices too.
[Desire Themes and Apps] gippy2:

[Desire Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
Nope aura moves the app to the sd card, the other 8mb is lib.aura.so a needed lib file in /data/data
[Desire Themes and Apps] jetskii:

[Desire Themes and Apps] scypion21:

[Desire Themes and Apps] kmetek:

[Desire Themes and Apps] nk111:

Sygic Technical Support ...

Dear Sir,

Soon we'll provide update for Mobile Maps, which will be compatible with Android 2.3

In case of any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thank you.

Best regards,

[Desire General] ephumuris:
Find it really strange that were not getting these. I'm not sure what type of notifications we should be getting but i know there should be SOMETHING.

Is it something that will be fixed in an update or something we have to live without?

Is it something those with the Generic/Virgin rom now can receive?
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
It's nothing to do with sense, the facebook application for android is crap and wont give you notifications (sometimes it will randomly tell you when you have a message in your inbox but that's it).

Years behind the iPhone app but fortunately and unlike the iPhone app, it's still being developed, updated and supported so hopefully soon we'll have something better.
[Desire General] ephumuris:
Good to know It's still being supported. I had a tattoo before and it had some sort of notifications so just strange this doesn't. Otherwise its lightyears ahead of the tattoo!
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
Have you tried turning them on in the fb app settings (I know this sounds obvious but still). I think it's hit and miss with the FB app, only seemed to work when it wanted on the g1.
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
The app updated yesterday and now notifications work fine.

Check the market.
[Desire General] ephumuris:
Yeah definitely switched on lol up try the market.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ayzar:
Hi, i have a big problem,sorry for my English, I upgraded my HTC Kaiser and this far so good, but when it passes an hour starts the problems the phone crashes I noticed in the programs folder there are more files but folders . I used the rom is staxxtitanium:(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dcarr622:
Not completely following you here: you're saying every hour something happens to your files after the phone crashes. Is that correct?
[Desire General] zomig:
Had this issue on windows mobile and now have the same problem on this device. When i get an mms they come through only a 1/5 the size of the screen. On windows there was a reg key that i can change, anyone know how to do it on this device?

Thanks

UPDATE

Now that the desire has been rooted, anybody know what settings need to be changed in order to correct the tiny mms pictures, o2 still have not got there finger out and sorted this issue out ??
[Desire General] zomig:
I have found an app on the market place called handcent and isntalled this, looks like the iphone layout. there is an option to spoof user agent but when i do this i cannot send any mms's. Can receive them but still they are not fullsize although bigger than previous. will try another option and choose the iphone 3.0 useragent. Phones on charge at present as battery ran out after only half a days use. I was using it a lot as i was setting it up so cant really say if this is the norm yet.

Still dont think this is as nippy as my HD2 but then I had a custom rom on that so that helped loads from the stock rom. Again early days.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Im getting this issue.

Isthere any work around for it yet? I send/recieve alot of pics and hate that they are tiny.
[Desire General] zomig:
the only solution i have found is for rooted devices so no good at present.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Ta. Will have to wait then !!!

Ive gone back to messaging + smspopup only losing ability to quick compose using search button.

Ta
[Desire General] n-j-f:
It might me because O2 have not yet added the Desire to their approved database yet. Try again when O2 have released the Desire on their network at the end of this month. I'm also on O2 but I hardly ever use MMS.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Good shout. Makes sense. Ta for that.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Ah, hang on, so how come the native messaging app shows the message in the correct size ?

For the same message, same picture sent or received, in the native app is large, but when i quit and go into Handcent, its small !!!
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Handcent has just had an update and its still showing as tiny.

Anyone else got this issue ??
[Desire General] zomig:
You cannot do anything to sort this, it is solely down to o2 to pull there finger out. Until they do we are stuck with it.

According to there site they will have the desire at the end of this month.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
But i get large photos sent and received with the native MMS app, and have worked out that its because it converts it to a slideshow.

Spose i will wait til O2 get this as a phone and try after.

Ta
[Desire General] zomig:
anyway to stop this slideshow on desire, can't seem to find anything to turn it off so I can just view the picture normally.
[Desire General] zomig:
UPDATE

Now that the desire has been rooted, anybody know what settings need to be changed in order to correct the tiny mms pictures, o2 still have not got there finger out and sorted this issue out ??

(edited first post as well)
[Desire General] ninjaz:
In handcent sms in Maximum MMS Size, change from default to 300KB.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Default is 300k.

I've tried all sides and none work. Need to wait tool o2 release the desire for themselves.
[Desire General] danprocter:
I have this problem with mine and i'm on orange. When the image is converted to be able to be sent, it shrinks it to about 16K, which is really pathetic. Anyone figured this out yet?
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Are you using the native app or Handcent/chomp ??
[Desire General] zomig:
Rooted mine and now using handcent, all working as it should, i used to get the same on o2. Not anymore though. Full size mms now.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
So can you post your settings?

I assume you are still on o2?

I can send large mms via the native app, and cant send anything if selecting one from the gallery, but can if using the camera straight from hand cent.
[Desire General] zomig:
I have the standard setup, so 2 accounts, one called "O2 MOBILE WEB" which only has the apn set to mobile.o2.co.uk nothing in proxy/port/server/mmsc etc. Only username and password set.

The other one is called O2 MMS Postpay, this has apn of wap.o2.co.uk, no proxy / no port, username o2wap / password, server not set, mmsc set to http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002, proxy 193.113.200.195, mmsport 8080

The strange thing is that i CANNOT send mms messages with the stock messaging app. I can however receive them and they come in full size. In handcent i can send and receive mms messages fine. Not sure why this is.

I would prefer the stock application to do both but just cant work out why it doesnt send. tried so many different settings now but nothing works
[Desire General] zomig:
Update.

Just tried my partners sim in my phone (she is on simplicity as well), she is able to send certain size pictures with no problem. Can't send any picture though and the stock messaging app doesnt seem to downsize. Very strange, rung o2 and asked them send me a replacement sim out as had mine for years so will give that a try.

Must be the sim or the network and o2 say it is not them (likely story as usual).

Time will tell though.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
I've noticed in the stock app if the pic is to large it converts it into a slideshow. Something handcent doesn't do.

If we wait until o2 release this, which should be very soon, we can get them to send the settings needed. Then if it don't work will be easier to moan to o2.
[Desire General] zomig:
i have also tried with the android stock messaging app and it just sits there and does not go. Handcent on the same phone sends it through fine.

Howver my partner seems to be able to send mms pictures just fine (not large ones though) and on the same phone so cant be a setting. has to be something to do with o2 or my sim.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Theres a few things to test if you can :

Theres 2 way to get a pic in the app, from the camera or from a picture already taken with the camera.

Stock app send from camera

Stock app send from picture in gallery

Handcent send from camera

Handcent send from picture gallery.

What sizes do you get with those ?

Ta
[Desire General] zomig:
Stock app wont send from camera or from gallery even though the file sizes are under 70k

Handcent will send from both camera and gallery with no problems, size is approx the same as above 70k although in theory this should be no issue up to 300k.

I called o2 to see if there were any setting they could change as my partners sim which is the same as mine (o2 simplicity) can send pictires fine on my phone. they do need to be below a certain size though but they definately go with the stock app. they of course said it was nothing to do with them and they couldn't do anything else as the phone is not supported on there network (expected that). they are however going to send me another sim to try, probably wont help but nothing else i can do.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Great. Cheers for that. are the larger file sizes full screen pics or small?

I'm doing the test s now.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Here's what mine does:

stock app.

Gallery pic - converts to a slideshow 56kb large. Sends and receives fine.

Camera - same as gallery above

Handcent

Gallery pic- 25kb large pic send and receives fine.

Camera - 7kb tiny pic send and receives fine.

seems I'm getting mixed results depending on how big the pic is. Frustrating I can't get consistent results.
[Desire General] zomig:
I cant get anything to send with the stock app, no matter what size the picture is, I can receive fine though with my sim

With my partners sim she can send and receive although like you it does depend on the size of the pic when sending with stock app.

handcent sends them no matter what.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
Confusing when its never the same results. O2 have said the desire is coming shortly as they have the tariffs out, so hopefully wrong be long before we can get official help from them.
[Desire General] zomig:
I am hoping when they support the handset on there network the problem will go away. Don't understand why they are the last mobile operator to actually get this phone. It's been out nearly 2 months now, they still wont commit to a release date but it cannot be far off now.
[Desire General] Raul Duke:
I'm pretty sure it's out now on o2. I think some people on the o2 forums are expecting delivery today.
[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
It certainly is meant to be soon. Maybe sooner than I thought.
[Desire General] zomig:
Just called o2 again, they are shipping the desire now. I actually ordered another one as they offered me a good deal to upgrade my contract (was paying £28 month) they offered unlimited text / data / wifi / o2 to o2 / 300 minutes for £30 a month, 24month contract but can downgrade after 9months phone was £40. Will now either sell the one they send me or the rooted one i have to make some money back.
[Desire General] Dr Doom:
So now that it is out on O2 has anyone gotten to the bottom of this problem?
[Desire General] zomig:
I think the receiveing MMS has been sorted as they all come through as normal. The sending is still a problem, my phone from o2 should be here today so once here I will give it a go.Seems to be an issue with the size that is being sent.
[Desire General] kazgor:
i got a simfree device and used my existing o2 sim.. but i wasn't able to send out MMS, just said failed and they requeued them to try again.

that was now 2weeks ago and i have tried since.
[Desire General] zomig:
Same problem as I was reporting, using stock app it just doesnt work, using handcent it does. Even when i rang them and opted for one of there desires they still said that my old tariff was not supported on the desire. Not sure if they are able to do something there end which stops you sending messages if you are not using a "supported" phone. never seen this before anywhere but there is definately something not right with o2 and sim free htc desire's and the ability to send mms messages.
