Test of Android GLES Alpha Version
Hm, the place above was with Miller projection. This is, what I see, when I change to Mercator projection for the same place from my favourites:

"when I'm on the highway". As pedestrian? Never!

Switching from bicycle routing to car routng after ~130 km. Android
There are several gizmos for charging mobile devices from the bycicle dynamo. There are some rather extensive articles on that topic in German language on the internetsite http://www.fahrradzukunft.de http://fahrradzukunft.de/13/steckdose-unterwegs…

We have that topic already a couple of times here in the forum, just recently another one. You are absolutely right. This is still a major bug of MFN.

Wikipedia / Wikivoyage articles as POI in Navigator
When navigating recently I passed an icon of those two files, what I found more interesting rather than just searching for poi in the menu. The info there was a general info of a suburb of the city, what was not that much interesting. This certainly…

I am not sure if my problem was caused by the gles version or not, anyway it came up using the gles version. When searching for a city using the Google search from within navigator, the app halted. I had to close the app via the app manager of Andr…

I have added both DE files (wikipedia and wikivoyage) to my MFN installation (on my tablet it is the gles version). But maybe I miss some point. When searching the pois, I have a lot of places with no map on my phone. Starting with Acapulco, Mexiko;…

Altitude options for navigating
That is, why part of brouter is a download manager for elevation data.

I wonder, if Mapfactor is the best software for bike. As Android user i prefer for biking Oruxmaps together with offline router "brouter". With brouter you can set your individual cost. Brouter is somewhat tricky to set up however. Maps fo…

Simulation works on an Asus Fonepad 7, model K004,16 GB, running on Android 4.1.2. I wonder, what makes the difference.

I would prefer a parallel beta installation (as oruxmaps has it for beta versions).

It is unfortunate that you have a wince version. In Android the cursor is in the middle of the screen. Wince seem not to be in the focus of programmers here. Problem has been discussed already. Maybe there is a workaround for you http://forum.mapf…

I could even work out a route from one country to another. I was just 100km from Prague (in Chomutov) yesterday, what is just 60 km from Chemnitz (Germany) ;-)
