Running Open Source Navigation application with Jolla (Android Version)

On the Linux Tag 2014 in Berlin I met the Navit guys and we installed Navit on the Jolla Phone. It runs great, lets use this thread to discuss on how to install it and how to use it: Open wih Browser: http://download.navit-project.org Go to: navit android svn

Or use directly: http://download.navit-project.org/navit/android/svn/ Download e.g. navit-svn-5774.apk Go with "File Browser" or "Cargodock" Application to 'Download' folder an install it.

Notes: - Installation failed while there was not GPS available during installation. This may be a Jolla or navit bug, please report back. - To download maps press on in the map windows the dotted line in the lower left corner until the menu appears. Then download your map. Due to the map size use WLAN - Sometimes the navigation application does not move to the current position. In this case a phone restart helped. This may be a jolla bug too. Please report back. - When the selected target position is outside the, no route seems to be drawn. - I would be glad, if we get this application working as native application, the android version just uses a compatibility layer - Finding the target location to navigate to was sometimes difficult
