First I would like to thanks you for the effort !!!!!

I tried to do the thing exactly as you've written here but it didn't work out for me, can anyone help me please?

I installed the Sygic program from ovi and then connected the n900 to pc, but unfortunately I couldn't find the sygic folder on my phone.
I tried copying the folders to the memory card, but the sygic program couldn't find them.

please help me get it working !!!!

You will need to have Sygic for Maemo installed and a copy of Sygic Israel Maps for any other platform (I have used Sygic 7.71.5529 for Symbian and Windows Mobile). Follow these steps in order to add the Israeli maps:

1. Connect your N900 using a USB cable in MASS STORAGE mode.

2. From your Sygic Israel folder, copy the following to your N900:

- /MAPS/isr to /MAPS/isr on your N900
- /MAPS/Israel_English.mlm to /MAPS/Israel_English.mlm on your N900.

Note that the name of the file may be different so make sure you are copying the right file. Also, please use the Israel English maps. Hebrew maps work fine but I have not managed to get the keyboard layout to present the hebrew characters yet so all addresses needs to be in english.

- /Res/Voices/Hebrew to /Res/Voices/Hebrew on your N900
- /Res/Voices/Hebrew2 to /Res/Voices/Hebrew2 on your N900
- /Res/skin/hebrew.lang to /Res/skin/hebrew.lang on your N900

3. Disconnect your N900 from the USB cable.
4. Run Sygic Mobile
5. Switch map to Israel_English (name varies per the .mlm file you copied)
6. Activate if needed.
7. Note that you can change the interface language to be in Hebrew and use a hebrew voice for the navigation.

Enjoy!

Hi, try this:

You should really read the thread before posting questions...

Hi,
I've the same problem, i can't find the sygic's folder. my Nokia N900 doesn't have any folder named "home" furthermore i've searched all folders (including hidden folders) and didn't find folder named "sygic".
I think that there is a folder where all installed applications are placed, and that there is no access for them by mass storage access mode.,,
My Maemo version is 10.2010.19-1.002

You can only see files that are in /home/user/MyDocs in mass storage mode. You need to put Maps and Res in your MyDocs, and then copy them to the correct path using the terminal. I did that with Midnight Commander, but you can do it with two commands very easily (Do it at your own risk, of course - What worked for me may not work for you!). Open a terminal (Ctrl-Shift-X), and enter these lines: (Remember to disconnect the phone from the computer first so it can see MyDocs)

Code:

mv /home/user/MyDocs/Maps /home/opt/sygic
mv /home/user/MyDocs/Res /home/opt/sygic

You will see a few warnings about not preserving permissions, that's ok as far as I know. Note that the Linux filesystem is case-sensitive - Name the folders "Maps" and "Res" and not "maps" and "res".

Good luck!
