Just downloaded and tested on my mogul. Works pretty well. I fired it up after a softreset, and it got a lock very quickly, with no priming needed. Huh, ill definately mess around with this a little more today. Thanks for posting. dschoenike

try starting from scratch... delete the cab you dl'd... go to the site and when downloading the cab for the Touch write down the uname and pword... it worked for me without incident.

Voice prompts seem to be spot on and easy to hear on my 6800.

I've been using it on every trip in the car since I DL'd it, and it's pretty accurate.



Some issues...

Unlike Live, I can't use it to find contacts. So, if you have a new customer, add them to your contacts, you're going to have to switch between contacts & amAze in order to enter the addy.

It tried to send me the suicide way down a one way street, but quickly recovered when I refused.

The satellite imagery & topo maps don't work... and I'm in a large suburb of Atlanta... a city of 5 million.


My arrow is now an X-Wing fighter with my name under it. :lol:




If Live ever comes out with voice prompts, this and Google Maps are toast, though.

Yeah. Just photoshop it. If you don't have photoshop, google GIMP, download it & use that. It's free. That's what I used.

You can also replace the voice prompts with your own files... so, if you have a girl who will cooperate, you could record her voice & have HER telling you when to turn.

ok so out of 5 stars i give this program 4. pro's and con's. It talks! BEST THING EVER. cons.... the only map that works... sucks. depending what direction you going the street names might be upside down. i have to soft reset everytime to get it to read my gps.

Can some one cook something up that would integrate the voice on to live or google??

ALSO I HAVE A SPRINT 6800 BUT DOWNLOADED TITAN CRAZER SOFtWEAR..was this one the correct download???.what are the other mogul users useing the windows 5 or 6?? i didnt see any anything fot htc 6800...
