Re: Turn by Turn Options

I use Sprint Nav and it works fine. It's not as good as my Nuvi, but it works well and at least the map resolution matches the display resolution, unlike the Diamond.

You say you haven't even tried Sprint Nav. Why not? It's free and it came with your phone. Go try it.

Well I assumed WAZE would fit my needs. Since Im using Fresh 1.1, it is removed and I havent been home to use his kitchen to add it back on just to try. Ill probably do that tonight.

I have the APK for it. I can email it to you if you like - you'd have to do "adb push Sprint_Navigator.apk /system" and reboot.

OOOOOhhhh. Does it work on our diamonds? If so, i would like it myself.

EDIT: Nevermind, i misread, thought you said you had the google navigation apk. Lol. I appreciate the offer but i am not at a computer i can do it at right now. Wouldnt App Installer work?

We don't have Diamonds anymore

Yes, App Installer would work. I prefer to avoid unnecessary software - it's just as easy if not easier to do adb push. I thought you might have access to adb but maybe not the app installer where you are. Doesn't matter, though, was just offering just in case

I think you'll be happy with Sprint Nav though. It works well.
