Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

I'll give it a try today at some point in the evening, my N95 8GB has route66 and it hardly ever loses tracking, I've been very very impressed with route66.

Hopefully the N900 h/w will at least be better than the N95 8GB - anyone know where the N900 GPS is located in the device? And what make/model the GPS chipset is?

Does closing the keypad mean the GPS antenna gets covered like the N95 8GB?

I've just bought this from ebay:

And will be using the device in landscape mode like a GPS, can't wait!

try using the built in 32GB

I had the same problem and its fixed it by placing the application files in the 'MyDocs' dir:

Code:

n900:~# ls -l /home/user/MyDocs/

It would be nice if somehow we can specify the data files path somewhere.

such is life mate..it was bound to happen. it was around since late last night..yes the maemo version

Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

I've not seen it. But probably Sygic for maemo is using the same generating method as the others...
Can we please stop now to talk aout the pirated version?

I was amazed how much more functions Sygic get when you delete or rename the menu.ini.
Why are these functions originally disabled?

Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

It would be nice to be able to add favorites while browsing the map instead of going through "navigate to" -function.

I've copied Drive, Maps and Res from the root of my SD card to the root of the internal memory. The app starts and I get as far as entering my product code (I've been sent two, tried both) - but after I press enter after typing the code in it hangs for a while and then disappears. This is using the "Automatic" registration. I am beginning to dispair.

I don't think. MyDocs is fat partition, symlink will not work, but if you want to customize the paths, take a look on sygic.desktop file and settings.ini file.
