The only bit that needs root is the uninstall of the existing Google Maps.

I can confirm that it does work on a non-rooted handset, I installed the apk using Astro without problems and now run the Brut version alongside Google Maps

And don't worry about it... it was a long shot anyway
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kl25:
this is pretty cool..

sorry i can't help i'm still new to android

but does this mean you can use google maps without incurring data (offline)?

i have an x10 and i am too looking for good pre loaded maps for navigation (i don't have a data plan)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Sort of, yes.

It will only save them to your cache once you have viewed them.

So if you need maps for Scotland, you need to have already viewed Scotland's maps on your phone, for each level of zoom you want to use them in.

Looking at the original thread, it looks like they will be adding a download function, so you can do exactly as you want, (and I do) Download on PC > move to phone > use Google maps without using data/in airplane mode/where you have no signal etc
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] murmeljenta:
I can't really answer your question. But did you check out MapDroyd? It lets you download and view your location on maps of entire countries. You can't search or get directions, but the maps contain details such as street names.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Thanks man, this could be exactly what I need... I'll try it locally first test locations etc (one comment said his location was out) but I can still read a map if all else fails :p

EDIT: It did work, but for the areas of Spain I need are not detailed enough. Cities seem to be OK and rather detailed, but villages (Bunol being the one I need) have nothing at all... just the main roads around the outside.

I will look to save the maps in Brut for the detail...
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] ukon:
Try andnav2.

You can download the map files over at this " http://wiki.andnav.org/index.php/List_Of_MapTilePacks/ " link :)

I hope that you will enjoy your trip to Spain ^^
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kl25:
if you use the brut hack

you now have access to the maps offline, but will there still be navigation or does navigation still require you to have a data plan?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Vilam:
Or you can use mapDroyd :

http://www.mapdroyd.com/

Really nice stuff, free, simple, real :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Check three posts up :p
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kl25:
hows the brut mod working for you

its a lot of work to save the map and at all the zoom levels

been taking up a lot of time doing that :S
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Yea, that is the main problem... it takes ages, especially to make sure there are no missing gaps.

Thing is, once they are saved it is amazingly smooth to load between zoom levels.

It would be nice if there was an option to download all tiles from a set area to cache...

I think they are working on an update to allow this, but until then I will have to slowly save them to my cache manually
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kl25:
do you know anything about getting directions?

if i want to get directions, do i have to cache the route like i do with the maps?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
You don't HAVE to... I believe (but may be wrong) that google maps will temporarily cache a route's map tiles for a journey you have selected. If you go off route, normal Google maps would connect to to 3g to get the new map tiles.

I haven't tried the navigation feature with just cache tiles though, so I don't know if you can use it purely off line
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] henh:
does mapDroyd have turn by turn voice guide navigation as googlemap ?

thanks
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] FireROR:
Anyone have problem with Google Maps won't closed problem? It always running at background and drain the battery.

Someone here said you should not run any task killer and let droid take care of it, but why let map running at backgrand all day to drain the battery out?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] SiRIus[X]:
i don't know abt u guys but i think MOTONAV is pretty cool!! it provides turn-by-turn and the maps are installed into the SD :D

so basically it works jz like garmin~~~

don't ask for the apk or maps, if u really need it pls google it :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Sounds promising...

Does it have the ability to pinpoint your location on a top down map as I won't be driving and really just want to be able to find my way around a strange area
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] CharlesW123:
Copilot

Copilot is another alternative, works brilliantly on the X10.

Available on the Market and I'm sure via some Google browsing too ;)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Isn't Copilot purely Navigation though?

I really just need a map on my phone that I can browse from SD card and can show my location
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] SiRIus[X]:
yes it does :) I've tried almost all the functions already :)

how do you install brutmaps for xperia x10

thanks

do i have to uninstall my google maps

then install brutmaps
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] thefunkaygibbon:
Check this link, has all the instructions you need

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

Basically, it is just an .apk file that you can install, I used Astro to do it.

You do not need to uninstall the current google maps, which is a good job as it can't be done on our phones yet (root is needed :( )

But, they both show up in the apps list. The Brut Icon is the same as google maps, but with Brut written on the icon. You also get the Navigation option if you are somewhere that google hasn't officially released their nav solution to yet.

mulimap

I recently went cycle touring in Germany. And used multimap to precache a whole bunch of tiles from OSM OCM Google for the trip. It has a nice feature where you can draw a box around an area and fetch all tiles down to a chosen zoom level.
[Desire General] supervinnie40:
i configured my hotmail accounts (2 of them) on the stock email program that comes with the desire.

yet it doesn't show my old emails.

it only shows my new emails.

it's a bit annoying, because now i can only read my new emails, but not look back at the emails that were on the server before is configured my desire.

i double checked that the emails are kept on the server, and not removed by an other email client or something.

i had 20 emails on 1 of my account that were on there before i configured my desire.

i've recieved 2 emails on that account since then.

on my desire it only shows 2 messages (the new ones i just recieved).

anybody any idea how to get those old ones?

If you are giving your sdcard away too, format it, fill it up with large files first and then format it again. If you just format it with your info on it, most of it can easily be recovered.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kueep:
Ran into a huge problem with the sprint htc hero and rooting. Alright now heres what happened.......

I was running the original 2.1 os from sprint, and rooted it with the guide on this site. Everything went ok but me being such a noob erased everything while trying to figure out how to put a new rom on it. There is nothing on my sdcard as of right now. My phone boots up and works fine but if i hold down [home] and [call end] it goes to the screen where the little pda is with the exclamation point and if i push those keys again it goes to the screen which is blue (think its the recovery screen) and has an error of E:Can't open/cache/recovery/command. And if i turn off my phone and hold down [vol. down] and [call end] it brings me to the fast boot screen where trying every option on that screen gets me nowhere. Like i said i'll give $20 via paypal, to whoever can get me root access back to my phone. I do have the insurance plan so if its considered "bricked" or "softbricked" ill just drop it in water or something but i just don't want it to come down to that.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiiguy5:
Sounds like you didn't flash a recovery image. If you can boot into the normal OS, do that now.

Once you've booted, either PM me, or post here, and I'll give you further instruction.

Also, no need for the $20, I mean, we're here to help because we care, not for money :\
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Guy71:
If you can boot into your phone, plug it into the computer and mount it as a hard drive.

Drag and drop recovery image into the sdcard folder on your computer.

back on the phone, set it back to "charging only"

open command prompt, navigate to the android sdk.

then type:

adb shell
flash_image recovery /sdcard/RECOVERY IMAGE NAME.img
reboot recovery

See how that works :P

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiiguy5:
Never flash official ROMs if you want root.

(Regardless if there is an exploit. If you have 1.5, stick with it, and use the older methods of root.)
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killerxx2:
go to the second post in the 2.1 root guide download that ruu. Now run the ruu and wait for your phone to boot.

Do not install the over the air update

after it is booted follow the root guide closely and reroot. if it errors out please copy and past it to pastbin or a text doucment uploaded. you should get rooted and a recovery installed.

Once rooted you should really try darchdroid xP

Thanks buddy a lot! My brother bought his N1 through t-mobile about 3 weeks ago off google.com/phone...and is already wanting to sale it for the iPhone 4G. So I guess its already unlocked he will just have to pay the cancellation fee to t-mobile when he sales it and switches over.

Thanks so much buddy.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codesplice:
I'm guessing that fee will not be insignificant.... And then to throw down $300 on a new phone, AND switch to AT&T in the process?

Ouch.

Some people just have money to waste and I think Apple targets people like that.

I love my N1. I don't think anyone could, reasonably, pay me enough to use an iphone 4 over my N1.

OP, you should show your brother how to put on Froyo 2.2 or root it and put on something like Cyanogen Mod. Soooo many more possibility than the icrap.

Lol we are no way rich...but if sold on ebay for $500.00 like some of the others won't you break even? Didn't know google had an etf...thought it was just t-mobile?

In your opionion since we are discussing what do you think N1 has over iPhone 4G? I have to admit I love the video chat thing on iPhone...only thing AT&T sucks...I think T-mobile probably has better service.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orangeandblue302:
did you buy the phone unsubsidized or off contract? I

If you got it subsidized you have a T-mo ETF and the google ERF (equipment recovery fee). If you are withing the 14 days (which i dont think you are) you can send the phone back to HTC and cancel the T-Mo account with no fees.

If you are past 14 days, be prepared to drop some dough.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayman121985:
Yeah I told him that...hes not gonna switch now lol...I guess you gotta wait 4 months before you can get outta of googles etf...him and I both love the N1 just wish it had more games like iPhone...but theres so many things I like about the N1 that the iPhone doesn't have.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w4d3:
Dont change your contract. Just keep your tmobile account connected and buy an iphone outright when they are released and Jailbrek / unlock it to work with your tmobile sim (altho the simcard itself will need to be converted to Mini sim)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayman121985:
Thats a great idea...hopefully they won't go over $500 in price.

[General Questions and Answers] nfriedly:
My understanding is that voice and data will go on the same connection, and Verizon's and AT&T's frequencies are nearly side-by-side, so will an LTE phone be able to switch between the two?

(I recognize that the phone would probably only support either CDMA or GSM as a "backup" for when LTE is not available. So this is mostly an academic question. Actually, in that vein, why do so few phones support both CDMA and GSM? Cost?)
[General Questions and Answers] Danni3:
Its the same question on why do cdma phones don't have sim cards, the answer is simply business

the reason there are few phones that support both cdma and gsm is because these protocols are dependant on the chip (cost goes up) and both frequencies don't play along nicely

theoretically a LTE equiped phone could switch between carriers, but this is highly unlikely due to the fact that verizon will never, ever EVER have sim cards therefore its carrier locked lol (the "sim" data is hardwired into the handset)
