aidenai Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 How does this apply to my Symbian mobile phone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaicbr Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 How does this apply to my Symbian mobile phone? Not sure for symbian. I have android. but if you google 'BRUT' google maps then maybe you will find something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Did anybody get this to work? The referenced installation instructions are contradictory. Any clarification on the steps would be appreciated. Haven't tried the "brut" edition yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaicbr Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 yes. working on a zte blade. i just followed the instructions BUT instead of using root explorer i used es file explorer and just enabled that in the menu for root. then using es put the map file into the system apps. From looking at the XDA forum there can be a problem for Samsung Galaxy's but they sorted that. You need to check out xda. Ps also testing Quick Navigator as a GPS ADDRESS BOOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muratremix Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 The problem with GPS in Bangkok is huge buildings! It is very hard to get a decent gps signal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I got this working. I'm embarrassed to say I installed it properly from the get-go; I just didn't know how to use it. Maps. Settings, Directions, Choose starting and ending points, (choose driving, walking, public transpo.)then click on the Navigation symbol. Works great. Thanks. FWIW, I have a paid version of Titanium Back-up. I used that to wipe data, and uninstall Street View and Google Maps. I downloaded maps5.4.0-ownhere-resign.apk to my PC then copied it to my internal root, then I used Astro File Manager to install it. Then I got Street View from the Market. Now it is working. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 FWIW, the Text-to-Speech works also. Of course it didn't work so well while my audio was muted; took me a while figure that one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaicbr Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 For the GPS address book i'm using 'location bookmark' and if i just want the gps co-ordinates i'm using 'geo pin' both working fine. Available for free from the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
