Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

Since Ive had the tp2 sprint nav sucks. Ive been told "its a known problem, and we are working on it" but still nothing. Im not a fan of google maps and i really like sprint nav's set up. Has there been any community fixes (ive looked and idk if im blind or sure that there is nothing)? Thanks in advance!!

i haven't had any trouble, but have you tried the new bing with turn by turn navigation?

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

Thanks Ill try that. You're lucky. Ive had the problem since day one with my tp2 so maybe its just my area. Hopefully bing works. Thanks again.

don't use nav that often, but it has worked, and bing worked for me on a trial run.
good luck with it.

Forget a Nav sys that need internet, use a stand alone system like IGO,TOM TOM,IGUIDANCE.....prefer the latter when i am in the states,otherwise Ndrive works where I am at...lata:mrgreen:

I hadn't ever used Sprint Nav until a couple weeks ago when I upgraded my plan and was kind of disappointed. The audio is muted to the point I can barely here it. Bing is loud and clear though and no lag on the maps like I get with SN.

bing, google maps...they work great. even trapster works.

I use Igo . Doesn't even need a data Signal

iGO is great!! :-)

Sprint Nav has always worked for me, I did not even know there was Known issues with it.

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

+1.. no "known issues" here with sprint nav either

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

I use Bing and I like it better than Sprint Nav

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

i use Google Maps over anything usually.. because im not an idiot and dont need something to shout out commands at me for directions... which i wouldnt hear anyways since the radios on...

all i neeed is drive here..to here...to here...to here..done.. thats it.. just gimme the directions.. i dont need a guiding hand..i dont need somethng distracting me from what im doing... nor do i need to see a constant reminder that im just a dot on a screen...

and NO, im not calling anyone an idiot who actually likes voice guided directions... just saying, If your paying attention to everything your gps app can do, whos paying attention to the road..

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

I pay attention to the road, which is why I love Bing. I don't even need to look at the screen once because the voice guidance is excellent.

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

Voice guided-nav is also nicer then Google Maps when dealing with traffic or construction...take a turn and it instantly reroutes. With Google you'd have to get directions again.

i personally think that the sprint nav is horrible. i use google maps religously but recently the new bing beta has came out and that offers talking turn buy turn nav which works very well. i also use garmin xt but my maps are outdated slightly so i have been using google maps and bing mostly. im posting from my phone and am not sure how to post the cab file. pm me if you are interested in getting it.

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

well if you plug your phone into your car radio, you can stream radio and have gps talk to you at the same time, all through your car speakers so you can hear.

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

I haven't had any trouble either but just tried the new Bing and it worked fine also. Actually, the Telenav works better for me on my TP2 than it did on my Instinct.

Re: Sprint TP2 users, what do you use when your sprint nav doesnt work?
 

i wonder if the problems are data signal strength related??? if so, i don't think anything but a stand alone app would fix it.
