[Chiongster]

I just got a samsung sgs2. Anyone here can fast forward me to any Apps that does a good GPS guided job on the roads?

need to root android phone to use?

[Acieed]

Isn't it quite annoying to have an incoming phone call or text message while navigating on your phone ?

 

NAVFONE is nice, but nothing compared with Garmin or MapKing/PapaGo. AGPS is slow when you do not have a live data connection - if one insist, some phones could use an external bluetooth GPS receiver but getting dedicated GPS device is much easier and cost effective.

you can try sygic aura 2.13 which i'm using now. It works marvellously and it's free.

Navfone's voice navigation sucks.. very irritating voice

Why don't you use Sygic Navi 11.2? It runs off Tomtom maps and comes with dynamic lane guidance. Most of the time i switch on Sygic for fun.
