I just changed to Galaxy S moving from Garmin on my HTC.

Try the papago on my Galaxy. Got lots a problem with Papago. Garmin lots better

Issue with Papago
1. It does not reroute when going wrong direction.
2. It sometimes stay same place after drive far from the place. need to restart the program to get new location.
3. It suddently become background program and does not say anything anymore.
4. no multitouch. compass support
5. It never tell you(voice) that it loss satelite signal.

For people having problem with X5 for android.
Dont get it from market. It never work. I wasted 2 days testing this. I am not sure why the put it there.

So regret getting this software as the quality to far from garmin.

GARMIN, pls release android version. I will queue to get it.

I am one of lucky guy who don't have problem with GPS on Galaxy S. I have tried Papago X5 (hacked one) which now I had removed. Just want to feel and compare with previously Garmin Mobile XT on my Omnia II. The result is I am very satisfied with Papago X5 and I for sure will buy it when it officially support Froyo.

1) The POI search is snappy fast. Garmin way behind where it searching by levels of radius.
2) The reroute is again snappy fast. Same like brut google navigation. Not like Garmin.. recalculating....... then got new road.
3) The accuracy is much better than Garmin. On Garmin I always missed my turn.
4) I never experience lost satelite signal when I am on open road or under flyover.
5) For your #3, i think because you press phone back instead of the software back.
6) Garmin Mobile XT got multitouch and compass??? emm... I never know it exist  hmm.gif

Thank for the reply.

1) POI search is fast .. .Agree... Garmin suck on this
2) Still never reroute. I am riding with phone in the pocket. Just depending on the voice navigation. I need to keep stopping making sure it locking to satelite
3) Garmin accuracy better for me. Maybe Galaxy S issue(will install GPS fix soon). Using TYTN2 for garmin
4) Again could be GPS issue
5) I left the phone on phone mount while driving. It suddenly become background process. sad.gif . Thus very unreliable when riding.
6) Let hope papago come out with it on X8 ? X6 and X7 I heard dun have multi touch
