Hi there, i extracted and signed the HTC Navigation Panel currently available on the Droid Incredible if anyone is interested. I tried it on my Desire and it works like a charm :D. Personally i find it more eye candy that the Nexus One CarDock application.

EDIT: I managed to mod the apk to run the hacked maps[brut] :D:D (of course you need to have them installed first ;) ). See attachments

credits to: Brul.all for his great work on his hacked maps :D
[Desire Themes and Apps] mojavaid36:
looks Amazing.....

Droooooooooooooollllllllllll.....................
[Desire Themes and Apps] endursa:
which app is called on the navigate button?
[Desire Themes and Apps] MacCarron:
Google Maps, yeah i know :p. I'm working on calling the hacked maps[brut]:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=630887

Or possibly even other navigation apps, but my coding is pretty rusty so no guarantees :( . If anyone skilled enough cares to jump in he's nothing but welcome :D
[Desire Themes and Apps] Scottland:
Looks pretty good, would be nice if we could launch CoPilot or choose our own shortcuts. Footprints is of no use to me, but GPStatus would be :p
[Desire Themes and Apps] MacCarron:
Updated with maps[brut] mod. At least now we can actually use a navigator regardless of where we live :p. I'm trying with Sygic now, but it doesn't quite look as straightforward...

Scottland you have pvt ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] mojavaid36:
Sweet. Good work man.

My compliments, MacCarron

does voice search work here in Italy?

Sadly, I couldn't manage it to work... :(

Also, does the panel also work horizontally?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Ramedge:
This is awesome, thank you!

What other apps does the Incredible have that the Desire lacks?
[Desire Themes and Apps] MacCarron:
The panel seems to work only in portrait mode..Voice search works if you have installed the proper apk, but it is configured to recognize the english language. So it can be very useful while surfing the internet on global websites, utterly useless as far a navigation is concerned unless you have set english as the phone main language :p. I'm attaching the voice search apk just in case.

@Ramedge

I think this is the only one, i haven't really looked deep into the firmware though.

I'm still working on editing the shortcuts, as i said my java is very rusty :rolleyes:
[Desire Themes and Apps] zerocul:
totally kills nexus one navigation!! love it!

it'll be perfect with landscape mode enabled!
[Desire Themes and Apps] jerry_nz:
I'd be interested in this if it has preferences to change what application was launched when hitting each button. Looks amazing though!
[Desire Themes and Apps] supasye:
that looks the business! was looking at some docks in the market and they were rubbish compared to this! just need a music app launcher on there got the old radio transmitter on the go in the car loooove iiiiiiit!
[Desire Themes and Apps] thebarsteward:
Nice find, looks the part, does exactly what it says on the tin.
[Desire Themes and Apps] ascot17:
Anyone know how to get voice search to work via a bluetooth headset? I am selecting it from the Navi panel but it does not 'hear' ant voice input at all....
[Desire Themes and Apps] Nickedynick:
Just wondering if anyone could modify the original apk to launch the new Google Navigation shortcut that todays Maps update added to the launcher?
[Desire Themes and Apps] gordy1:
+1

Thanks Gord
[Desire Themes and Apps] supasye:
who uses footprints? im gonna try changing that to music, although i have no clue where to start.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Bomaster:
I have updated google maps after puting the navi panel on at it goes to the correct map or navigation program.
[Desire Themes and Apps] valyne:
Navigation Panel - two buttons not working

I downloaded the Navigation Panel apk. It looks amazing. However, the phone and footprint buttons do not work for me. Is there a way for me to get them to work?

Thank you for any advice.

Oh - and when I hit menu and try to go into Settings it force closes??

How difficult would it to mod it to launch copilot?
[Desire Themes and Apps] T-dome:

[Desire Themes and Apps] pbv302:
Or Navigon...:D
[Desire Themes and Apps] dgattenb:
Wow .. thanks!! looks fab works well !! on my Desire Orange UK !!

Thanks again !!!!!!!!!!
[Desire Themes and Apps] Dvanen:
Waaau thx MacCarron :D

Just what I needed!!!
[Desire Themes and Apps] andrew2106:
Superb MacCarron. Everything works fine on my Desire.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Balistyx:
Fantastic work MacCarron, thank you very much for this.

I too would be very interested in seeing footprints replaced by music and would be happy to make a donation to any dev who does it.

Also I wonder if anyone can help me with a question:

I'm in Australia and we don't yet have Google navigation enabled to I'm relying on maps[brut] for nav. When using voice search to start navigating (IE: "navigate to x address") it starts up the standard maps app instead of [brut]. This feature would be fantastic for in-car use. Does anyone know how I can change the default?
[Desire Themes and Apps] MacCarron:
I'm sorry i haven't spent much time on this project, but lately between university and work i feel like i'm being eaten alive :p:p:p. Just a reminder that i'm still here and i promise you'll have some updates soon as far as launching custom nav apps is concerned. If anyone cannot wait he is welcome to pick up where i "paused" and knock himself off, otherwise hang in there with me ;)

@ anyone with issues with current limited funcionalities : i suggest you check the app's dependencies (i.e. if you have [brut], voice search, footprints etc installed), as everything works as intended for me ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] nenadr:
Motonav and/or IGo

It would be great if Navigation button can be modified to start Motonav or IGo (as soon as we get IGo for WVGA resoluton)
[Desire Themes and Apps] KaseKasimir:
Now with working Google Navigation in most parts of Europe, what about a version that actually starts Google Navigation?
[Desire Themes and Apps] diggedy:
ive tried setting the navipanel up to auto start when my bluetooth kit connects (sony ericsson HCB-400) but it doesnt start when the device connects. Does anyone know why this may be?

Im using a htc desire
[Desire Themes and Apps] tortxu80:
+2 for copilot mod

thanks for a great work
[Desire Themes and Apps] beardie79:
Fantastic app, would it be possible to have the nav launch the Google Navigate beta?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Mr. Frost:
Yes, that would be great. I'm missing the option to use the voice seach in google maps. In the Navigation App (the blue arrow) this is possible.

Or is there any way to use the voice search in the normal google maps search bar?

Anyway, thanks for the great app! Works perfectly on original 2.1 Desire!
[Desire Themes and Apps] jobalz:
is it ab big deal to add a landscape mode?

that would be great!!

cause navigation in portrait mode sucks
[Desire Themes and Apps] 1user:
I cant start the app on my Desire with froyo 2.2.
[Desire Themes and Apps] al89nut:
I wonder why they chose the old GPO phone????
[Desire Themes and Apps] superdioz:
GRAZIE!!

thank you :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] superdioz:
i found a bug, the auto activation when connected to a bluetooth car kit doesnt work.

its a minor issue and maybe you can fix it, thx!
[Desire Themes and Apps] raix:
Did anybody get the autostart working?
[Desire Themes and Apps] vinnyutd6899:
will this work with leedroid 1.8 please
[Desire Themes and Apps] Bob@Desire:
A version with Navigon or Sygic would be great
[Desire Themes and Apps] raix:
Why shouldn't it work? Just install it an see for yourself ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] mbologa:
Hello,

I have one question

-This is working on a Windows Mobile OS, phone , too ?!?! (I have an HTC HD2)

Thanks in advance for replying
[Desire Themes and Apps] Bob@Desire:
No Android only
[Desire Themes and Apps] ascot17:
I would also like the option to open Copilot with the Navigation button....

.. and Vlingo Voice with the Voice Search button.

There must be a way... just need to find someone clever enough to do it..!!
[Desire Themes and Apps] DavieMarshall:
Working great on HTC Desire (auto start not tested). Ability to launch custom apps would be amazing (Trapster, Glympse, Google Maps for example I'd love to see here).
[Desire Themes and Apps] zmagas1:
+2 For Motonav
[Desire Themes and Apps] UKseagull:
+? For Navigon. ;)

Also landscape mode would be a real bonus. Does anyone know how to modify the apk?
[Desire Themes and Apps] pwhooftman:
Hi MacCarron,

I got as far as debugging the APK file, and finding the reference to brut.maps in HtcNaviPanel$ItemClickListener.smali I changed the references in HtcNaviPanel$ItemClickListener.smali to com.alk.copilot.Copilot (not even sure about that process name) and rebuilt to a new apk. That .apk won't install however. I have no idea if im anywhere near a solution to launch copilot, especially since you mention your java programming being rusty :-) I haven't even touched java so far....

Any hints?
[Desire Themes and Apps] pwhooftman:
I have managed to succesfully decode the apk file, find the brut.maps reference and change it, rebuild the apk file, sign it and reinstall it. Changing the reference to brut.maps does work because my version of the htcnavipanel does not start Google maps anymore, but... it doesn't start anything else also. I think because i use a wrong process name to start Copilot. Currently i try to call com.alk.copilot, because that is the name of the running process when Copilot is running, but i think i may need another process name. Anyone have a clue?
[Desire Themes and Apps] mkuijlaars:
maybe if you rename the Copilot files the same as the Google navigation.

It works in WINMO if you whant to change CoPilot to TOMTOM in the Navipanel
[Desire Themes and Apps] kuailan:
It would be really AWESOME if someone can make the nav that will open up Copilot! Please....:D
[Desire Themes and Apps] hello00:
doesnt work on froyo 2.2 ...

nvm it works
[Desire Themes and Apps] befe77:
Hello there,

I'm new to the Android topics so please help me: I have a Desire and I would like to get an GPS navigation software. The Navigation panel needs to have all the time internet conection, or it can use some maps save on the memory card? Thanks.
[Desire Themes and Apps] cardiak:
I suggest you learn your phone...

You already have the software. Yes it needs an internet connection. At present you cannot save maps to memory card if you are using google Navigation.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Ockerwitz:
If you have an HTC and Android 2.2 (Froyo) and can not install it on your phone, simply download the .apk file on your computer and use the HTC Installation Manager Software for Windows. You can install it then on your phone :)

edit: Is there now any solution to start Google Navigation directly from the "Navigation" Button?

Could anyone change footprints into music?
[Desire Themes and Apps] DirkStorck:
Is there somehow a way to exchange the option to start footprints against a certain music app ?

Thanks!
[Desire Themes and Apps] freddyfoxx:
Neo's rom AuraxTSense v7.5.2 has a doctored Car Panel which has now got a music shortcut? Dunno if this helps you guys??
[Desire Themes and Apps] Tui0hcg:
can this be launched automatically when my default Bluetooth device turns on? I have selected auto launch and auto connect in the settings but I don't know how to get 'car kit mode' working so that it will do all the auto connect and launch things
[Desire Themes and Apps] bmanoiu:
Downloaded and works beautifully on HTC Desire!

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Desire Themes and Apps] styr:
Google launched the 2.2.1 version of Car home with customizable shortcuts, get the apk and launcher from here.
[Desire Themes and Apps] aindow:
Thanks for the link. Not sure if I prefer HTC with the navipanel, or the car home as they both have some pretty nice touches.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Pastagaga:
Downloaded !!!!

Seems to be great.

Can we custom action?

I want to have a icon for "Wikango".

Regards,

Patrick
[Desire Themes and Apps] Tui0hcg:
OK got it working to automatically launch on Bluetooth headset connection- looks like it was the carhomelauncher.apk thats required;)

Any updates on getting the footprints removed and changed for something else?

HTC Car Panel

Hi,

I modified HTC carpanel and replace default google navigation to Sygic. Works on HTC Legend.
[Desire Themes and Apps] ianarus:
Didnt work on Htc desire 2.2. it doesnt launch Sygic Aura.. :(
[Desire Themes and Apps] MihAoo3k:
Because it's run Sygic Maps, not Sygic Aura. This is two diference navigation.
[Desire Themes and Apps] ianarus:
kk.. is it possible to make one for aura to? i actually have aura and not mobile maps. or maybe you could tell me what files u changed. should be a simple matter to change shortcut pointer no?
[Desire Themes and Apps] MihAoo3k:
You can decompile apk file and browse source code. This is not hard to do:) good luck
[Desire Themes and Apps] Flamaha35:
Thanks so much, MacCarron - for posting the Navipanel file. I've been looking for this for sometime, as I'd gone and bought the HTC car kit for £50 and realised my HTC Desire didn't possess Navipanel from factory. I now have Navipanel installed and it's awesome! Thanks again :-)

NaviPanel

Very cool and impressive stuff! :)

Works on my Desire with Android 2.2.

But I can't turn on my GPS when in NaviPanel :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ASPHALT5:
We need you!

I've tried everyway to get it on my device(HP rw6818)but after booting,I just had a totally white screen and I had to soft reset.

help.........................
[Desire General] mklass:
Ok so I got the Desire :)

My connection keeps switching from 3G to HSDPA every couple of seconds this is causing all sorts of issue for me.. Any body else have this issue? I might take the handset back for the 4th time :(
[Desire General] JupiterDroid:
Happens to me as well mate, its due to having a low 3g/hsdpa signal... My one where i live constantly changes between 3g/hsdpa and G. But when i go into central london, it stays H;) its due to the signal quality in the area, not with your phone mate;)

JD
[Desire General] niklz:
I second that, it switches all the time in my home and never downloads on 3G. I thought this was an issue with the phone, then at a party I couldn't get H but got 3G and it downloaded data fine.

I'm hoping that they increase the signal strength and coverage over the years, but i'm pretty satisfied thus far.
[Desire General] th3:
At least you see a 3G and a HSPDA connection... I have never seen past GPRS on mine. Fastest it's been is 25kbps dl and ul with 577ms ping so I can only ever use WiFi. So much for navigation.

Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Desire General] jools8780:
i have a fairly weak area too and left my phone on auto thinking this was best. however, having selected 3g only, i have noted a much improved data connection and none of this messing about going from one to another! maybe worth a try for your area.
[Desire General] twogubs:
The two main places i use the connection are at home and work and in both my connection speed varies according to where i am .If i sit on the right hand couch in my living room then i just about get 3g but if i move 10 ft across the room i get full HSPDA(the same situation occured with my iphone)and i have yet to find out the reason.

If you want to find out how you are serviced then visit w w w. sitefinder . ofcom . org . uk/ just remove the gaps
[Desire General] jatt:
hi

My understanding is that when there is minimal date transfer (basically just connected to network) it shows 3G but when any data transfer takes place e.g., opening webpage or market etc etc, the connection changes to HSDPA to download at faster rate

But i may be wrong
[Desire General] ivicask:
I have the same prob, and already opened topic about it, and i see few others opend some more..

Basicly having my old HTC HD aside with Desire, HD connects to 3g, and Desire is jumping around from 3G and a HSPDA and it doesnt wana connect to 3g, same happnes with a HTC Legend phone who 2 of my friends have.

Vox Rose Kitchen v2.0

I present to you my new Vox Rose Kitchen v2.0.

​

It now supports the Vox and the Rose.

The downloads here will be Rose specific only.

For the Vox version go here!
​

For all things you can do with the kitchen, please look at the thumbnail!

Requirements:

dotNET Framework (at least 2.0)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable

Windows XP or higher is recommended (SplashMaker doesn't work under 64-bit operating systems)

Kitchen has to be located like this: %systemdrive%\Vox Rose Kitchen\... -- So in the "Vox Rose Kitchen"-folder should be the exe and all the folders (OEM,SYS,ROM,TOOLS)!

Downloads:

The download comes in two parts!

First is the TOOLS folder and the "Vox Kitchen.exe".

The second part are the ROM, SYS and OEM folders.

General Downloads (always needed):

Download exe, bat and TOOLS folder

just click on install and it will unpack it to your system drive\Vox Rose Kitchen

Downloads for WM 6.1 (20282.1.3.6):

Download OEM folder, SYS folder and the ROM folder.

Downloads for WM 6.5

Download OEM folder, SYS folder and the ROM folder. (please add this XIP.bin to the ROM folder)
[S740, S743 ROM Development] frauhottelmann:
The Building Process

Fire up "Vox Rose Kitchen.exe" in the normal kitchen folder ("C:\Vox Rose Kitchen") and go to the build tab. It'll look like this:

The first step is to start G'Reloc and check if the values are right for the Rose (look at the picture) and click on "Do it"!

If you are cooking with WM 6.5 you might get errors, because G'Reloc isn't ready for Wm 6.5. In this case you click OK and then "Do it!" again and it'll tell you which module is producing the error. You can now either go to that folder and use Unlocker to unlock the "tmp"-file and delete it and then click "Do it!" again to keep going or you use recmod to make a file out of the module (better if you are cooking more then once). I recommend the recmod path it's easier and faster once you've eliminated all "bad" modules!

The WM 6.5 package I supply has all modules already fixed, so you don't need to worry (once it's done :D)!

When G'Rleoc is done (it might look like it hangs and then unexpectedly is done), you can close it and continue on with BuildOS. Here you can choose what to include and what not to include (only OEM packages, if you don't want certain languages (all the xxx_LANG_0XXX folders) or SYS packages you'll have to delete them manually! Please do not remove the package I have marked in the picture, unless you are re-integrating customer service (but why would you :confused::eek::rolleyes:).

Click on the green play button once you have selected everything you want! It'll say done at the bottom once it's done!

When it's done you can close it and click on "Create Rose ROM".

This will automatically insert a xip into the new ROM if there is one present in the ROM folder (xip.bin). You don't need a new XIP for 6.1 and I supply one with my WM 6.5 package (you know...once it's done ;)). So basically you don't have to worry about XIPs.

​

The cmd window will do everything on it's own and it's done when the window closes itself. You now have a OS-new.nb in the temp folder.

Now open then "Start HTC ROM Tool" and click on "Build!":

Under "Device" choose Diamond and change the "ModelID" to ROSE1000.

Change the "Version" to what ever you want and leave the rest alone.

Then select a OS and choose the OS-new.nb in the temp folder.

Then click on "Build" and save the ROM in TOOLS\RoseFLASH and you are done with cooking!

Wondering to what extent The Evo will recieve Modding and support here compared to say my Nexus.

I really want to jump to that device but that is my main concern.

I realize the Nexus will get first-of-the-line android updates from Google....but to what extent will the Evo be able to follow suit with the updates...and android modified features.

Thanks guys.
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
It will get as much support as any other HTC phone in this site. Simply wait a little bit until it comes out and people start playing with it...

Patience... :)
[General Questions and Answers] rockky:
Thanks for your response.

Don't know the nuonces of all this but what little I've picked up is that the cdma systems are much more difficult to root/mod? because its more locked down? and that mods generally won't spend as much time on them as GSM devices....waiting for the GSM versions to release (Scorpian/Olympian) in this case.

Just don't wanna be caught in that (Sprint 2 year contact) boat. I'm amazed at what these guys do with these devices....really.... Half the fun has been tinkering/ increasing the functionality of my Nexus thanks to the amazing work of these guys! (And yeah I DO donate!)
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
The reason for lack of support for CDMA devices is that there are very few countries world-wide that use this technology. Most of the world uses GSM, and this doesn't help on the development as there are fewer developers that can work with it (most of them in the US afaik)
[General Questions and Answers] denco7:
It isn't like XDA has a whole back room full of paid modders waiting to get started on every phone that gets released.

The modding and customizing is mainly done by users of the phone. The more widespread the release of the phone is ( ie: TP II ; HD2 ) the more customizing and modifying there is. If a phone is only being released as a low budget phone on one carrier or in a select few countries, don't expect there to be a huge input by the community.
