Yes. In a file manager go to "/Android/data/com.mapfactor.navigator/files/navigator" either on your SDcard or internal memory depending where you have stored your maps and data.If you have on earlier occasion already recorderd gpx files, y…

switching to Android Marshmallow - HOWTO?
I agree with you but that is something completely different and not what you wrote in first instance.If you ONLY uninstall, without that copy/backup step you mention now in that last post, all data is gone: already since very early android versions.

Version 2.1.90: @tomas: Just by coincidence I needed this as well this afternoon for a "sightseeing route" and I tried to use the up/down arrows as well. They didn't work. "Out of instinct" I tried and selected and dragged t…

I zipped and cleaned my log folder. Then did 2 attempts: The first with the Chemnitz address and the second with the Waalwijk address. Debug level set to high. Logs were sent for the attention of Tomas. Address 1:Annaberger Str 232 Chemnitz, Deutsch…

My android device runs hot while using MapFactor Navigator
Yes. It is indeed the GPU. A typo I assume as she knows very well what hardware acceleration is.And the code is not yet very optimised. And please correct your own typo "device gets very while". Gets very what? :)

The "parallel to the road" observation by @Durko is the same I mentioned here, but my observations were for the 2.1.88 version, and not consistent.

No unfortunately not. Several reboots in combination with clearing the cache neither.software renderer or hardware renderer makes no difference either (not likely but you never know)

And again: my 2.1.90 version which I had freshly installed last night (and which required me to download the maps again) and which functioned at that moment is now hanging again upon using the same addresses.something really wrong.

The latest version is 2.1.90. Those are beta builds as the current version on Google Play is 2.1.86.If you want to use the latest beta watch the links Lubos (mostly) mentions in this thread, or become a Google Play test user: https://play.google.com…

System freezing on journey
This is mostly due to a corruption on your SD-card. Please check or reformat. Are you using the same SD-card in your new phone as in your old? If yes, then it is definitely your SD-card.

Please note that this doesn't solve the issue as such. Somehow during the several upgrades the "GeoIntent" functionality goes haywire for a number of users. 3 users report this out of 25 active users in this forum. Let's not aggr…

I did not want to uninstall either, but Navigator/Android does not allow to install an older version. So you have to uninstall first thereby losing all maps (unless you put them on the internal memory in the navigator folder).I bacjuped all my map, …

Hi Tomas,I'm not saying you are misleading me/us. But you seem not to be willing to admit that Navigator could be faulty. There are 3 persons mentioning that it doesn't work. Even if Navigator is not the culpit, it seems (I'm not sayi…

I can confirm with Chattiewoman. Navigator is closed (and really closed by either the Exit button or a restart of the phone). I open the contacts app and tap a contact address. At that moment I can select between Google Maps, Here Maps and Navigator…

What do you mean?I mentioned that it suddenly works twice with the correct address. And then immediately with the same 2 correct addresses it doesn't work anymore and navigator hangs again. Here maps and Google always(!) work and Navigator does…

It didn't work for me at first. I assume you meant Chemnitz instead of Chemntitz, but that doesn't make a difference.I tried with Germany and with Deutschland. Navigator simply hangs. Then I tried withBurgemeester van der Klokkenlaan 55514…

I will send my logs. I did record NMEA logs when it happened "all the time", but after Lubos asked me to record debug logs with setting to high, as he preferred that, I did not record those NMEA logs anymore.And it improved greatly in the…

@tomas:If 2 experienced users (at least that's what they think of themselves :) ) say that it doesn't work, it does not help to only say that it works for you. Please specify what kind of address you use so we can try to reproduce it.I alr…

This used to work quite well in Navigator but not at all anymore. And this is with the 2.1.90 version. There are several ways of storing your addresses in Contacts. It can also depend whether you use the contacts option via Gmail-Contacts or via you…

Navigator still giving directions after exit
As of Android 4.x Google has dictated in its design rules that the exit button should no longer be in apps. If you tap "back" often enough the application should close if it is not necessary to keep it running. (Did you ever see one Google…

Map Update Issue
@tomas and @PrzemekSupak: He is using Tomtom maps but the app wants him to download at least 1 OSM map. If he doesn't download an OSM map the app exists. So he has bought Tomtom maps, doesn't want OSM maps, and now he can't use the a…

@lubos: What Larry means is the so called "worldwide altitude correction". The calculated altitude by a GPS needs correction for every latitude/longitude because the GPS calculated altitude is based on the WGS84 reference ellipsoid, not b…
