Hi all,
just my experience: I upgraded to version 10 but I think this version is terrific! I wrote to the Sygic support my notes but didn't receive any answer yet, following are the issues I suffer:
1) the new scrolling interface is quite unusable because it's very slow and there are cases when you try to click an icon but the event goes to another one;
2) the CPU is always pushed at 100% (no OC, power-kernel 37 as used in prev MM 9 version) and it drains the battery in about 1,5 hours which is unacceptable while long driving;
3) several program crashes while driving (had to restart it while driving on highway because had to know where to exit in the next 2Km!);
4) GPS signal lost while in open space (outside cities, no buildings around), I had to close and restart the application to have the signal back;
5) I can't manage to write correctly contacts' addresses (using the standard contacts manager application), there is no way to use the "drive to contact address" function;
I didn't install new applications which could interfere with MM10 before or after the upgrade and don't use extras-devel repositories (system version PR1.2).
I wonder if I could reinstall the version 9 but use the new Map files to have at least them up to date.
I think Sygic should provide some patches because this version in quite unusable, while the previous was very good and saved me in lots of cases
Thank you very much, bye.
