Navigation for huawei s7

[allexoss]

Hello.
Can we make a list of navigational software that u tested and works on this tablet ?

Thank you!

Google Maps
Google Navigation
Google Skymap (for Extra-Terrestrials and the occasional sub-etha senso-matic user)
Locale
Buzz
Copilot

Those are the various ones I have used.

i tried ndrive and it is working

aura it's not working
google navigation remains at checking navigation availability screen

do you have an S7 or the Telsta version? I believe the Testra has some "tweaks" to the GPS to limit capabilities.

No
I have the A1 version (mobilkom austria)

Are you saying that google nav doesn't work at all or is hanging on a specific screen? Working fine for me as long as the S7 has a data connection (I tether to my phone's wifi hotspot). Will even continue to nav on the current route even if I lose the data connection enroute!

wifi and a 3g connection

it might have a problem with the fact that i installed maps 5.0 from apk because i could not find google maps on the market ?

that could be. Go to m.google.com/maps from the S7 browser and see if that gets you the proper update.

Hello
I've been using OSMAND together with the build in GPS. Its Ok but: some limitations for pre loaded maps (based on openstreet map), will not give "turn" info. For the moment I dont have knowlege enough to make up my own maps and get them to work from the 2nd SDcard.
Huawei IDEOS S7 from BB.

it doesnt give me anything to install

if you have it set up for 3G you should have a phone number associated with it, click the link to send the install link to your phone.
