Details about HD traffic information
I guess it differs where you drive and whether you drive during rush hours.I drove 165 km for nearly 2 hours during midday and it took only 165 KB: small part city, long part highway, small part big city On the way back several days later, partly in…

Rails not visible
I might have been too quick with my reaction. The mentioned "tram" rails have a 30-50 cm grass separation between the two lanes. That can never go wrong. Still I prefer to have them on the map. @Garfield: For orientation? I thought that …

Route Not Found - to Albany International Airport
This is strange. I can calculate a route to the airport, both with and without small local roads enabled (has been so often an issue).What kind of car profile do you have enabled?

I think so too.Especially as they are part of traffic around you and sometimes with special regulations.I think it is not right to have car navigation that does not show these rails, even though you won't navigate via the rails.In The Hague, wh…

HD Traffic for Navigator Free on Android - licence problem
I think it is as at least very familiar, as I get the exact same error.I think "something" in the license checking is not correct, whatever the reason.I got this on a unit without the license: why? It should not even mention it at all.And …

How to correct faulty lane assistant info?
Yes. These two posts are displayed in "normal" font size. For me that is much more pleasant but I do understand your reasons.

How to correct faulty lane assistant info?
@Jochen_K: Why is your font setting always so terribly small? It makes it hard to read especially on smaller screens.

HD Traffic for Navigator Free on Android - licence problem
I had that as well. Not on my phone, but on the android head unit in my car.The license was for my phone and I figured it was somehow connected to the hardware id.I wanted to post about this as well as it started last Wednesday or so, but didn'…

@stepan: What if a simulated route gets new traffic information. Will it then reroute?

WLAN weaknesses are stopping map download
torrent downloads resume where they stopped. That is the great power of them.

Some time ago we discussed the current behavior of the "real time traffic data route alteration". If Navigator finds a faster route based on the traffic information, it will automatically switch to that route without even notifying the use…

He gave those already in the 3rd post and you already used them as well.

Digger Config
Yes ...and no. Tomas is correct in that Digger does not remember your settings unless you do the same thing twice, like updating your file every months.However, with a little scripting you can create templates and specify that template to digger. I…

Yes, it does download in the background. It works flawless on my phone and on my car head unit.

The warning sounds are switched on/off in the Speed- and Camera warnings submenu.The navigation instructions are switched on/off in the Localisation submenu.Switching one of them on/off should not influence the other. Changing the volume of the alar…

Well, to me that is definitely a bug. As you manage the warning sounds from the warning sounds settings section, and the voice from the localisation settings section.They are two distinctive settings, and they are indeed different from each other.O…

In Settings -> Localiation -> Navigation voice (voix de navigation), you can select "silent mode"

Mine did crash as well. 2 times on 2 approx. back and forth 12 km runs. Settings as usual with the only difference that I had set the renderer from automatic to hardware.No logs of the crash.

Imported track Route not found
I understand. That would indeed be a nice addition. I have experienced this as well in the past, but I thought your issue was simply due to too many points.

TTS is Text-To-Speech and also characterised as "synthesized voices".The instructions are strings of texts passed to the "TTS engine app" which reads them and speaks them. You have GoogleTTS, Acapella, SVOX (just went broke), and…

Software render vs. Hardware render: What is the status?
OK, I do understand the battery aspect. For me with the head unit directly on 12V it will be HW renderer as of now. However, with a phone connected to a suitable loader (see below), or a head unit like I have now directly on12V I guess it should alw…

Imported track Route not found
Are you loading tracks? ("I often import tracks")Or are you loading Waypoint or Route GPX files? Tracks containing sometimes 2000-6000 points are not the correct GPX files to determine a route. The fact that you mention that you have "…

Do you use recorded voices or some TTS? And if you use TTS and it is functional, can you switch to recorded voices for testing purposes and check if that works.

And please post (even a minor) changelog of the changes between 3.0.81, 3.0.83, 3.0.88 and 3.0.90, which I saw pass by.

3.0.90 did not solve above.There is a very strange relation between the opacity of the industry layer (belonging to the "Builtup" category I assume) and the opacity of the "Buildings".If I set the opacity of the Buildings to the …

@Garfield: Come on. Simulation is just what it says. You try to simulate the route. You have to have an extremely clever algorithm to simulate exact real world speed. It's all an estimation.Try for example iGO, Magic Earth and others. There is…
