thank you sir

I have been unable to get this to work with any of the North American maps. I changed the map region to NA and started replacing files one by one from the ipa that had matching names with the files installed. The ones i replaced were Satellite.nfs, CountryProfiles.nfs, RealityView.nfs, Advisor.nsf, Poicats.nfs.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] diboze:
mwedg: have you also edited filelist.xml so that the nsf dont get overwritten?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] mwedge:
yep. i updated it for each file.

Navigationthanks
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Gustopher:
I find the UK navigation to be pretty good - better than Co-Pilot on WM6.5.5. The GPS fix is quicker, the positioning on the map seems accurate to within a metre or two and the speed read out is almost exactly in sync with the speedo on the car. Co-Pilot was normally five miles an hour or more out.

The main weakness is the lack of multitasking and having to start all over again if the phone does something else while navigating, like an SMS or phone call.

I'm getting no user data stored at all - recent locations, etc - can't set Home or Work or Favourites. I trust this is the same for everyone and I'm not just being stupid??
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
Yah

Finally I found the xap file to install the Navigon.

And it's working fine. From Iphone I did copy the maps for my country as same what I have to do.

Renamed the maps to original name.

But when I run the Navigon it's only show me the map for Germany....

I can't go to my country map.

What should I do?

thx

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Blame73:
Double post - sorry
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Blame73:
Maybe they are from a wrong version. try 1.6 or 1.7 maps. I had the same problem with older maps (Italy)

PS. Did you move maps to the correct position (\Applications\Data\6F9CB464…..\Data\IsolatedStora ge\map)?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
They are just new 1.7.0. But I didn't change the filelist.xml.

i'm not sure how to do that!!!

will be in contact.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
How can I get the filelist out from my Mozart so I can change it????
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Juno-First:
Well I got this working with a UK map but my HD2/WP7 revokes the Navigon install every day :(

I've tried all the unlocking reg fixes etc too. grrrr..
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Sebo1985:
Sorry if I read over it, but is there any workaround for us Samsung Guys? Touchxplorer doesn't work.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
grrrr too

For some how I saw that the Navigon I have is 1.4.0 :confused:

Even I have downlaod it as 1.7.0:rolleyes:

Now please where can I find it.

If there is some one who know.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] vagovagis:
Yes why don't you suggest a xap or a specific software that generates a xap which installs maps at right place? I think it can be a solution cause Touchxplorer isn't for non Htc devices and DEVICE MANAGER software will be available only after Microsoft update.

Please create a xap tha sets the right positions of map files!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] nortonnc:
Agree strongly......please let someone develop new solution......(if it is possible...)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Frederic.james:
Hello all,

I have a Samsung too and was thinking of a XAP who copy the mapfile at the good place but it's not as simple as you think !

After some try, i was able to include the france.map in a XAP, create a folder in the isolated storage of this XAP and copy the mapfile in it (That's easy, everybody talk about that).

Next step is copying the mapfile in the Isolated Storage of Navigon ( 6f9cb464-bdaf-df11-8a2f-00237de2db9e ) and execute the XAP... If someone have an idea about how execute the app with the Navigon right... it would be nice ...

The main question remain, how to grant full write acces on the filesystem of samsung phone....
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Gustopher:
I think you also need to consider installing the Navigon XAP first and running the app - the first thing it does is to download 340-ish MB of data which also creates the map folder (and others? Voices?)

Only once this is done can you install the localised maps.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] djind:
For people who do not see any folders in the WP7 storage device, let Zune complete synch first and then close Zune.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ksmedts:
I had also problems with seeing folders on the storage device, in my case it was caused by a guest partnership... After making a full partership i could see my folders!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] emigrating:
You're sorta on the right track, but any XAP you create will not be able to move the maps into the Navigon's isolated storage.

You should be able to disassemble the Navigon dll, add your own method there to copy the files, reassemble the dll and then run it.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] vagovagis:
I think Shapman could give us a great present : a touchxplorer for other devices (first of all LG OPTIMUS 7 the most used after HTC). Please HELP US!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Frederic.james:
Ouch that's hurt !

I would like avoid this if possible (try to change the Guid of my app by the navigon's GUID but :

1 - It disinstall all the app (grrrr)

2 - My app didn't launch with the changed GUID (Sometimes we can dream :) )

I will try to go in this way by night (disassemble Navigon.dll)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Frederic.james:
I have aleready do this step, Now i'm searching how writing in the navigon isolated storage with another XAP or with a filexplorer (and NO IT S NOT A HTC !!!!)

Hummm maybe with a DNS usurpation we can make him download another mapfile instead of the german one (I can see one or two little problems doing this...)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Trogvars:
Did everything as written in instructions.

It works.

Also installed Russia.map with houses and POIs.

Thanks.

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
What did you do exactly???

I'm dieing here.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
Please let me know what did you do.

I have Mozart and it's not working with me, the maps not showing.

Thx
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Phenomenon:
So far same here. No solution for US maps. Sucks that WP7 comes out with no real navigation solution. For now I'm just using the TeleNav trial. Microsoft needs to get with it already.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] emigrating:
Good idea. I think that should work actually - you would have to make sure you're connected over WiFi and setup the router/AP to point navigon.vo.llnwd.net to a local computer.

On the local computer you will have to install and configure a web server to serve up content from /o25/u/eu/wm_select/. Once you've done this, download and edit the attached filelist.xml to serve your needs - i.e. add all the maps you have/need. Remember the filesizes too.

Finally, copy all the required files into the specified folders.

When this is done, start Navigon (for the first time) and it will download the maps you have selected. If you already have the app installed, uninstall and re-install will force a re-download of the maps.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] vagovagis:
Emigrating, does it work in this way? Can you explain this method in a guide cause sorry but i haven't understood a lot.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ycavan:
Pretty much what he's saying is to redirect the app traffic to a local web server that pretends to be the navigon server.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] emigrating:
I haven't tested it, but as long as you can spoof the navigon server it will work. I.e. it depends on your router and/or WiFi AP.

Unless someone else has done so by the weekend, I'll mock up a solution for this and update the first post.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
Do I need to change any thing in this files:

thx
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
That could be our problem

Please for every one having problem with adding maps read this.

I think and only think that:

check what is the version & build of you Navigon

Click on the ! mark in the first screen after starting the Navigon

in WP7, and if you see Version 1.4.0(build-389)

Then you need maps from version 1.4.X

All the time i'm adding maps for Navigon 1.7.0 I thought i have XAP for

navigon 1.7.0(it's the XAP file name showing 1.7.0).

So I will try to find maps for 1.4.0 and see.

Regards,
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
Here what I found:

The line http://navigon.vo.llnwd.net/o25/u/eu/wm_select/">

Is forwarding the Navigon to like in the net it's updating the information for him.(thx emigrating)

But how can I just forward it from my wifi router I have no idea.

What I did is I deleted that line and run Navigon then it's show me no maps.

What can i do as replacement for that link??? to till the Navigon to get what I give!!!

Any ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] emigrating:
No. As far as I know there is only one version of the app available for WP7 - v1.4. This needs the iPhone v1.7 maps.

If your 1.7.0 maps don't work there is something else wrong. What countries are you trying to add? and what other changes have you made if any?

It doesn't work like that - if the app realizes there is a problem with the maps (or data in general) it will hit the server above and download a fresh copy of filelist.xml.

Like I said, you'll have to edit your settings so that DNS lookups for the server above hits one of your local computers. How you do this depends on the make and model router or AP you have. On my pfSense box for example I would add the entry under DNS Forwarder and Bob's my uncle.

Not all routers/AP's have this as an option though in which case you're SOL - unless you can setup your computer to share it's internet connection with the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
I'm trying to download the Middle East maps.

First i did as simply as I should just copy to my Mozart - maps - rename to country.map.

But it's not working the NAvigon don't see them. So I started to play.

i have DNS in my router but what should be located in my local PC exactly??

Any help?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] emigrating:
Not sure the Middle East maps will work as the app is set to MapRegion = "EU". Changing this to e.g. NA does not make the North American maps work and neither does swapping out the satellite file.

As for the download thing, you'll need a webserver on one of your local computers like I posted earlier.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
It make sense....
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
100% right.

I just added Turkey map with the simple steps and it's working fine.

I have to look for my area then.

That is another story. :D

thx any way

@ Emigrating how did you extract "filelist.xml" from the phone?

I was trying to extract it and another file but even if I copied it in the picture directory it isn't see able on the PC.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] emigrating:
I didn't - the filelist.xml I posted comes directly from the Navigon server. Which other file(s) are your trying to extract? I might already have a copy.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] cheap66:
The file I'm trying to extract is _ApplicationSettings

Because all the languages are in the sound directory

And I think that a config file define whch language Navigon has to use.

I tryed with NaviKernelConf.ini but when I launched navigon it downloaded it again.

So, I'm still searching a file with this option.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] bippo:
ApplicationSettings

Be aware U can't edit the file because it will kill the program, at this moment is no solution for replacing it!!! Anyway keep a copy of the original or U have to reinstall everything again.;);)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] cheap66:
Don't worry I made the ori file before editing and modifying it.

anybody has had any success with Norht America 1.7 maps?

I have tried to find any good leads, nothing so far.

Voices selection

I tried this solution and navigon starts without asking for downloading but

I have no more maps when I try to go to new destination...

So when I try to change something with notepad in filelist.xml I can't find a maps (all maps), but in explorer they are there... hmmm

restored originals eng-GBR_ogg.nfs and eng-USA_ogg.nfs and filelist.xml, and it works well but in english...grrrrr

So the problem is if I change filelist.xml I can't find a maps during navigation

some suggestions for voices
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] kata:
Eaxctly the same here :-(
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] mtem1985:
tried this method, and it works. No problem at all. The only thing is it has a lag...

it doesn't move smoothly but stops for about 5 seconds and then jumps to your current destination.

Any luck with North America Maps

Anyone had success in getting the NorthAmerica Maps.. I almost tried everything, like renaming the Satellites.nfs, RealityView.nfs with NA one.. Tried editing Filelist.xml, but no luck..:confused:
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skythunder83:
Hope

I hope some one will find some thing about all this things :)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] cdguider:
No Success

I have tried almost everything still no success.

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] B4PJS:
There is a great website called google that can help you.

Anyways, Cheers OP for the info, now finally have GPS Satnav on my HD2 :D
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] wheresmybeaver:
Thanks to all concerned for making this app "more widely available".

I've tried it on my HD7 and I've been pleasantly surprised; the UI is in english, the maps work well, and even voice guidance works (in English too). The POIs are also contained within the map file.

Hopefully Navigon will introduce this to the marketplace. If they do, hopefully they will address the only things really missing:

-No history of previous destinations

-No 3D view; top-down view only (maybe just missing from this patched version)

-No Favourite destinations or custom POIs, or ability to place Pins etc

-Not possible to add a via-destination or interim destination-Can't plan a route in advance (also doesn't plot a route until GPS is locked)

I use GPS practically every day for my job so I'd be happy to pay for this software when it's released. I'm sure Navigon are monitoring this forum anyway, so Thanks! Looking forward to buying an updated feature-complete version of this in the near future!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] diboze:
No problem ;) It was patched by eried and uploaded by me to a well known forum.

Its not that Navigon hasnt implemented all features...there are many android references in the dll...I think they just didnt include/enabled them and already have a full-feature-version...but they still have an "exclusive" deal with tmobile Germany for the first half year.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ETm21:
this is the instruction on how to put on the 3D on an Apple device it can't work for WP7
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] djind:
It's too bad the app automatically downloads almost 400mb of maps and data. Wish this could be disabled as I restore/edit alot on my phone..

i have a local dns server and tried to do this but had no luck, even with a reduced file list.

not sure what was wrong but all files in the xml were present and the right size. (actual size not size on disk).
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Topogigi:
It's quite simple to mock up a dns entry using reverse tethering (simply connect the phone to zune and you'll obtain reverse tethering). Then edit your hosts file and put this stuff into:

"your ip" navigon.vo.llnwd.net

"your ip" navigon.dl.llnw.net

where "your ip" is the address of your PC in your local network.

Then fire up a personal web server, configure it and try....

But it doesn't work for me. The application refuses to download new maps and voices.

Can someone please upload somewhere all the original files contained in filelist.xml? I cannot find them anywhere.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Topogigi:
Noone? Really? :-(

It doesn't matter: I managed to download all the required files contained in filelist.xml by myself directly from the navigon server (simply point your browser to the address of the file and it will download it). Then I created a directory on my PC to spoof the original navigon server and put all the files into \o25\u\eu\wm_select (map, sound, data, all the ini and nfs files). In the map directory I put also the map of my country (Italy.map, I'm italian). Then I adjusted the filesizes and names in filelist (Italy.map was missing).

I edited my hosts file (windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts) and I redirected the navigon server to my ip address (you need to add a line like this: "your ip" navigon.vo.llnwd.net ), then I launched my personal webserver pointing to the directory I created and using port 80.

Finally, I connected the phone and deployed the app. Navigon prompted me to download the additional data and began to donwnload them from my spoofed server.

BINGO! The app works like a charm with my map!

I really don't want to promote piracy: use the maps from the iphone version only if you bought them and don't blame me if this does not work for you: it worked for me (LG Optimus 7) and it can work, but I give no warranty.

Now, it's time to work with sounds: directions for turns are in english and i want them in italian. Suggestions?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] zxcv888:
I got my samsung focus to load NA maps. but, the map on the phone refuse to go outside of europe :mad:

The way I did was..

edit flielist.xml to include the folder of NA maps.

set up a local server on my pc.

edit the hosts file like the above post suggested.

leave the phone connected to pc in airplane mode and download the maps.

It did download NA maps into the phone..

but, like i said earlier... the map doesnt want to go outside EU >.<

I tried switching out satellites, ini whatever file from my map folder..

in those cases, i cant even see deutschland map anymore...

the app just crash out when i go to map screen...

bottom line - dont waste ur time following the steps i did if u dont know exactly what's wrong or how to fix .... i just wasted a day...
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Topogigi:
Some users asked me in private how to set up and configure a personal web server. This is beyond the intent of this thread (there are excellent guides throughout the web explaining in detail what to do). So, I'll simply report which software I used. You can find it here:

http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/copy-documents-and-multimedia-to-wp7-using-webserver

together with a complete video tutorial. Use port 80 in place of the default port.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] gianlucarugby:
sorry, but how to edit the .xap for going to my server? what file i should copy to wm_select folder? folder maps, sound...and/or other?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Topogigi:
You should read the instructions carefully. I never said to edit the .xap

The files you need to populate the directories on your PC are listed in filelist.xml and you have to download them from the navigon server.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] giova81:
ok but how do I download files from navigon?:confused::confused::confused:
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Battosai94:
You haven't to edit the .xap, only the filelist.xml.

Download the files from the "filelist.xml" via your browser :

Example : http://navigon.vo.llnwd.net/o25/u/eu/wm_select/data/Advisor.nfs

Once you've downloaded all the required files, create the directories "data", "sound" and "map", put the files on them, and move all to "*/o25/u/eu/wm_select/"

Edit the "filelist.xml" with the infos of your maps (name and size). But, I don't know how to push the file on the phone, if somebody can help us.

Edit your host file to redirect navigon.vo.llnwd.net to your PC (example : 192.168.1.69 navigon.vo.llnwd.net)

Launch Simple Webserver and select the folder before "o25" (example : for "/Navigon/o25/u/eu/wm_select/" use "Navigon").

Connect your phone (Airplane Mode) to the PC and execute Zune. Launch Navigon on your phone.

Edit : I've an Omnia 7, so I can't edit the filelist.xml from the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] gianlucarugby:
Thank to all!! Now I'll trying :D
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] giova81:
ok, but when I open] http://navigon.vo.llnwd.net/o25/u/eu/wm_select/data/Advisor.nfs [/ url] impossible connettersi.mi you explain me please

:mad::mad:
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Battosai94:
For the "filelist.xml", it's not necessary to push to the phone, only put it in the folder "/o25/u/eu/wm_select/".

It works just fine (download from the Navigon's website and all the tutorial) ^^x

Edit : When I said browser, I talked about your computer browser, not from the phone ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] giova81:
I'm not crazy:mad::mad::mad::mad:
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] gianlucarugby:
when i configure my host, i should put for example 192.168.1.78:80 navigon.vo.llnwd.net? the port number should be write? or 192.168.1.78 navigon.vo.llnwd.net?

in simple server the port is 80, and the address is http://192.168.1.78:80?

how to edit it?

please i'm so near to work it! XD
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] giova81:
qualquno I can give the filelist already changed to the map Italy ecc.sono Italian? thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] gianlucarugby:
when I do it, if I can, I put them up in private dropbox ;-)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Battosai94:
@gianlucarugby :

Download the files before updating the Host file ^^x

Delete the entry ("192.168.1.78:80 navigon.vo.llnwd.net"), download the files on the website of Navigon, then modify the Host file with the entry and continue ;)

When you put an entry on the Host file you redirect the website to the indicated IP, so if you redirect the website to your IP , when you attempt to access to the website you are redirected to your IP ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] giova81:
ok thanks;)
