check for map update
@jd417 But he is wondering, why he does not get an automatic warning (though check map updates is checked), when he sees in map managment at the same time, that in reality there are new maps to be downloaded. It is not, that he is not waiting for u…

Mapfactor (Free) can't find updates
Are you sure, that you have "old" maps. Did you check it? See Setup utility, install data, map manager, free maps, go to Europa, open the France tree, move your mouse over the maps and you will get a tool tip, which shows you your map ver…

For Android this question mark mentions, that Navigator has no GPS fix. If I remember well, there were already some topics relating to Windows and problematic GPS fix. You should search the forum for that.

Test of Android version 3.0.x
@Lubos Thank you, works now. Nice holidays to everybody!

Test of Android version 3.0.x
I still get the 309 Bytes file, not a 404 message. I don't want to go to beta via Google Play because I use two devices and want to keep the stable version on one of it. So there is no testing for me :((

3 elementary questions about Mapfactor GPS for Android
Probably the documentation is (far?) behind the app as it is. You should get turn by turn instructions simply using the "Navigate" command from Androids main menu. You have to set a departure point, have a gps fix and then "Navigate&…

If I download from http://download.mapfactor.com/mapfactor_navigator.apk from the first post of this topic, I get a file only 309 Bytes small!?

We had that before, if I remember well. Just search the forum.

Fixed: 2.2.74 2D hardware renderer unexpected exit
I think, @lubos will be at 3.x. That is, why he is talking about backporting ... :)>-

Routing points
And you find the calculate route button only under tools so not on the main screen.

Routing through not finished tunnel in OSM-Map
Hm, and it seems to do so. Fraunhoferstraße is under construction (see the small circles in the street following quite strictly to southern direction until it ends to Werner Seelenbinder Straße just before the target) and not used for route calcu…

[quote]highway=construction shall not be used for routing.[/quote] I agree.

Routing through not finished tunnel in OSM-Map
Did you OSM data, if the tunnel already exists there? I had it the other day here in Chemnitz, that a street still under construction and quite away from completion was already available in OSM data.

Night mode colours
Download seems to be in the standard download folder of the browser, so Mapfactor will not find it immediately. I had to "open" (tap on it) it from the download list of the browser and was asked, which app I wanted to use. When I selected…

Handle highway=mini_roundabout the same way as junction=roundabout during routing
Oh god, 53 pages on mini roundabouts. Some countries will bearly understand, that this may constitute a "problem". Let's be happy that we have the time to discuss such problems and not the need to look for sufficient food, clean water…

Navigator taking weird route
Saying "planet" you mean the "planet.osm" data file http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm? As mentioned at osm.org, this file is updated daily or weekly. So any update of osm data during the first days of a month should b…

Navigator taking weird route
So if I change data on the first day of a month, it takes four weeks, until you pick them up. Three more weeks for normal processing. So alltogether nearly two months ;))

Navigator taking weird route
Update schedule should be monthly. But proccessing is time consuming. I don't know how long it is exactly and it seems to differ from country to country (small or large data). So I calculate two months from OSM data update until updated data sh…

Strange routing
Even worse? Something wrong just north of the roundabout. Look's like there is some wrong data in both directions. I do not find a route over "Route de Wasserbillig". But I do not find, what could be wrong there ... http://www.openst…

Absurd Routing Mistake between Bolivia and Chile
Chile: 44-201412230 is from year 2014!? What happens, if you copy the Chile map from the tablet to the phone?

earth_osm.mca is essential.

Forum request: Allow direct upload/attachment of files/images.
But storage is cheap. They could limit image sizes, so users will not upload uncompressed or unecessarily large images. And bear in mind the waste of time, users need need now for rather effortful alternatives.

Absurd Routing Mistake between Bolivia and Chile
What are your map versions (date)? Note, that Skobbler may use OSM maps, but they are probably not the "same" as you mention in your other post. Mapfactors has its own proprietary format for its maps. As @tomas, I can not find any images…

Strange error with OSM map
