Hi Benny. Downloaded Sygic yesterday and on first launch got error. But after that, no issue so I didn't bother to troubleshoot. Anyway, wanted to know base on your experience with Sygic, is the map constantly updated by Sygic. If yes, is that free. Or is there an online community that update and share their map contribution online such as malsingmaps.com

Anyway, Sygic does make full use of SGN screen resolution.
*
Maps are not so constantly updated ; what I did is every 2-3 ,months I just redownload the maps. Maps are proprietary by Sygic and there is no common file sharing
I would say even in small towns ( major roads ) no problems navigating except for newer roads in the past few months
I have been using Sygic Aura first in my Dell Streak ( I paid Euro 30 for it than !!). Later in June I bought it for Euro 9.99 for my SGS II ( special offer ) and now I have transfer the SGS II licence over to the Note. It now costs Euro 19.99. In the past 9 months using it, about 2-3 times a week travelling up to various parts of KL, PJ, Subang Jaya and Singapore, it has not failed me

CAN ANYONE HELP?

Download the latest Sygic from Market. You will have a free trial 7 days. On or before the trial period end, you can purchased it - you will be given a product code and subsequently a activation code which needs your IMEI info
If you have been using any other version other than official, sorry cannot help you

Really bad experience with Sygic. Downloaded the app plus Malaysia map, whenever launched it will just quite by itself.

Did some googling and solution is to DISABLE GPS. Did as told, app open successfully but it prompts for activation code. Based on Sygic, it should run in 7 days trial mode automatically.

Is there any one having same issue running Sygic in trial mode?
*
Never have such issues but my friend has such an issue. That was solve after he hard reset his phone. He download some crack version and than decided to purchase it after a few days. But the app recognized his preinstall and will not allow him to access the app. He than hardreset and reinstall the app and could get the 7 day trial running

I know it cannot be switch on. Sometimes it can be saved by trying to reboot into recovery ( vol up+button+home). I have faced such issues before on my SGS II and Galaxy Tab - looks like battery is dead and cannot be charged

Hk kk1 rom bettry performance very bad... can only use for less than 5 hours....  =="


Added on December 6, 2011, 4:23 pmany recommend ROM?
*
What were you on that it only last 5 hours - -if continuos browsing on 3G - probably only 5 hours. Or you are on gaming
I am on HK rom and it easily last me 12 hours and my usage:
2 hours browsing on 3G, email downloads every 30 mins, RSS, tweeter, news feed every 30min - 1 hour, few calls, few SMS, weather update every 4 hours, some youtube viewing about half hour
I have tried most of the roms and must say the HK KK1 rom still have best battery life coupled with AngeloM kernel 1.2

for iphone, we can direct sync contacts on my macbook pro contacts list. but for Note, i already sync via Google, but then i realize that some info are missing like address, the jalan part is missing, only left with city, state, country. So i manually edit my Note contact, but when i choose sync contact (i assume it sync with Google), those ones that i deleted on my Note comes back again, and those newly added ones aren't updated on Google. so i m asking what is the best method to update my contacts?

can we have something like contacts on macbook whereby all contacts are stored there as master contacts? and when we amend either the phone or the computer contacts, both devices are auto updated.

or can we just log on to google and amend the contacts there? 1st time android user.
*
Open Address book on Mac : Preferences/General - just tick synchronize with Google and choose synchronize
Whenebver I update my mac address book , select sync with google on taskbar - it will auto sync with google and the phone will autosync with google

i recall earlier on that owners feedback the launchers in the market is laggy on note (probably not optimised). but i still went and bought today's ADWLauncher EX @ 10 cents.

installed and i find it smoother than TouchWiz, though I've yet to add any widgets, etc...

ADWLauncher EX is OK? or i just have low expectations?!? smile.gif

Add on several widgets it lags

hmmm...then it will be a very headache question for a new android user like me, whether to root or not to...haiz... hmm.gif  rclxub.gif
*
There is no headache at all if you do not need these:

1. Run apps like market enabler to fake telco to have access to more apps , both free and paid
2. Run adfree app to stop all those pesky ads appearing in the apps
3. Run titanium backup to fully backup and restore your apps and data
4. Install clockworkmod recovery so that you can have a full nandroid backup ( your rom plus everything) and in emergency cases allow you a full restore back
5. Run system apps eg setcpu to overclock and to set profiles and voltages - to control battery life
6. Backup your phone IMEI
7. Flash roms and kernels and modem

REMEMBER root will void warranty

NONSENSE ; the 11200 has 2 USB ports - one 1A and the other 2A - both can be used ; you need a faster charge use the 2A port
