Never seen in 8 years : MFN app (7.3.32 and 7.3.48) now crashes my whole phone
My crashes are happening within 10 minutes while planning a route on all my phones and tabs. MFN first slows down remarkably and then freezes the whole system.

Navigator crashes on Samsung Galaxy Tab A (SM-T580)
The same on my S5 (Lineage OS), S9+ (Android 10), Lenovo Tab M10 (Android 12). Bugs may happen but I'm hearing absolutely nothing that they are working on it.

Possibility to remove waypoints in Android Auto
I can't see the problem. Set Your new destination, then go to route info and simply choose remove waypoints in the ... menu. Everything between start an destination will be removed without affecting favorites or saved routes.

Slow to respond after long ride
The same on my s5. MFN becomes slower and slower until the app crashes. MFN is running in internal memory.

Mapfactor 7.2.23 - how to adapt old POIs?
Poi mca files are treated like maps which have a mca extension as well. So You can handle them with import/delete function of the map manager.

In this case I would first temporarily kick the self generated POIs and then check if the problem still exists. Next thing I would do is to kick all maps and download them completely new. Some time ago the division of the maps was changed what caus…

Actually the devs seem to be very busy with other projects. I have the latest MFN betas running on 2 different android phones and no problems at all. What You can do is checking Your maps for errors, there is an appropriate option in the settings. A…

Motorcycle road trip, filter distance announcements and waypoint names
Oh, that's too bad, I will miss Your always constructive and helpful contribution here. A bugfix may take some time but 2 years is bordering on intent and truly does not shed a good light on the devs. At this point, my understanding as a betate…

Motorcycle road trip, filter distance announcements and waypoint names
Hi folks, I would like to relaunch this thread because I tried MacDony's navigation_janvier.xml and discovered several problems in german language. As JambaFee said, with announcing (in xx meters, waypoint name) it's grammatically wrong i…

Mapfactor ignoring custom warning sounds ...
Addendum: On my S5 MFN is running from internal memory. So I pushed MFN to an inserted SD card, swapped the warning sounds and pushed the whole thing back to internal memory. Then tested - and MFN plays back the original sound, even after wiping ca…

And why not using an actual MFN version...?

Wow, the files work on both of my androids, thx so much for Your effort! This approach is deep-saved for future! When comparing my Wavelab- and Your Audacity files in a hexviewer they indeed look completely different, but mediainfo is showing exact…

Test of version 7.3.x for Android
My android devices are all equipped with Sd card slots, I had no experience with sticks so far, so thanks for the very useful info. I think USB options are depending on the OS MFN is running with.

I don't think that the whole app is pushed to external memory with the built-in option but the user data. Anyway, the main thing is having access to. I recently have the problem that every update overwrites my custom color sheme of the maps wi…

Very slow startup - MapFactor 7.3.21 on Android 13
Other approach: MOVE Your routing_points.xml and favorites.xml to another save place and fire up MFN, it will create new empty ones. Is startup quicker now?

Very slow startup - MapFactor 7.3.21 on Android 13
On mine startup lasts about 7 secs with MFN on a SD which I formerly used in GoPro for recording video. MFN's settings offer an option to push it from internal memory to SD and vice versa, it's not an Android option. When moving MFN, not …

Go and push it to internal memory with the built-in option, You will immediately see whether it's better or worse than on SD. My experience with SD's is they run or die immediately. Never had knowledge of SD's dying slowly. An MFN u…

Ok, then You could use an usb C stick or any other usb device via OTG adapter instead of an SD Card. Push MFN to the stick, make Your changes and then move MFN back to internal memory. Didn't try this approach yet, but it should work.

Push the whole installation to a inserted SD card, MFN has an explicit function for this. You then will have access to the appropriate wav files to copy them to a PC for a check with mediainfo, that's my preferred approach.

Very slow startup - MapFactor 7.3.21 on Android 13
With clearing data You also delete Your maps, no wonder they weren't found any more. :-) MFN is running fine on both s5 and S9+ phones with maps of complete Europe here. It's definitely not the app. The only thing that's slowing rema…

My first approach would be clearing data and cache and then run the built-in scan to check for corrupted map data. If this doesn't help try not to migrate MFN but do a completely new installation by using the newest version and latest maps.

Find out what sample rate and bit depth the originals wavs have and replace them with any other wav with the same sample rate and bit depth. Attention: wavs must be exactly 1 second long, otherwise You will get some strange sounding noise!

My cards of both phones were just put in and formatted in the phone as external memory. With the internal option of MFN You can move Your installation to SD card and then see all files including having access to, be it with the phone itself or via P…
