Sprint navigation

I recently downloaded sprint navigation but I accidently clicked ok instead of run and now the navigation icon is not on my home page and the application isn't available to redownload. Can anyone help me out? I would really appreciate it.
Thanks.

I just subscribed to Sprint Nav
(Seen here: http://blog.telenav.com/blog/2009/09/traveling-this-labor-day-use-sprint-navigation-to-find-your-way...) (or TeleNav) and was wondering if there was any cheaper GPS software?

Getting Sprint Navigation sound through my Camry speakers

I have a Curve 8330 and a 2007 Toyota Camry with factroy bluetooth. After I have connected the bluetooth, is there any way to get the sound from Sprint Navigation to play through my car speakers? I did a Google search and thought I found something, but it didn't work. It suggested unchecking the headset option for bluetooth on my phone. I did that, but it still plays through the BB speaker.
Anyone got any suggestions?

Sprint Navigation Software

With a Palm Pro, after updating Sprint Navigation to the latest, I cannot remove the older one in my Start Menu. Keeps showing "Cannot move that item" which I want to remove and point to the "updated" version.
The only way to access Navigation is to go to Programs then launch it from there which is not what I want, I want to quickly pick it. I cannot add it to the today desktop as well.
Is there a way to resolve this?
The Pro is becoming more of a burden than my previous 800W.
My companies mobile website does not work on the Pro IE and had to revert to a thrid party browser (Iris) to make it fit.
Please help me get the old Sprint Nav off the menu.

I've started to get the random screen touch phenom lately. Without my touching the screen I can see touch marks all over the screen with app opening and closing. It settles down after a while and I've found no pattern. This is not related to heat, as it's happened without running and in cold weather.
Any have a fix to this?

Sprint Navigation for iPhone

No one here could help you.
Do you have an actual support question for your fellow iPhone users?

How to keep screen on while using Sprint Navigation?

I have the problem where the BB screen goes black after several seconds without use. How do I stop this from happening when I am using Sprint Navigation? I've looked in Options/Adv. Options to no avail. Please advise.

Did this happen after updating to 7.4.1?
I know when I updated my TC to 7.4.1 it disappeared on me. I had to revert to previous firmware.
This also happened when I updated and original Airport Extreme (first model released). Had to revert it to 7.3.2.
Every Airport I updated to 7.4.1 became invisible. Had to revert each one.

MAC OS 01.4.11 WITH SPRINT CENTRO PALM SYS. TRYING TO CONVERT CONTACTS TO PALM 800W? NOT POSSIBLE?

THERE ARE 4 PROBLEMS TRYING TO CONVERT FROM PALM CENTRO DATA TO PALM 800W:
1.MAC needs third party software to convert to ms,(if you have windows computer you still have the MS ongoing problems),
2.PALM PDA CELL PHONES,(no vision for the future)
3.NEW 800W WINDOWS MOBILE CELL PHONES.(usual monumental updates $$$)
4.SPRINT(lacks the technical support).
CAN'T TRANSFER 565 CONTACTS FROM CENTRO(palm system) TO PALM 800W(windows mobile system). WINDOWS SUCKS. WON'T ALLOW TRANSFER OF MORE THAN ONE CONTACT TRANSFER AT A TIME VIA BLUETOOTH(the only way to transfer data). THAN IF YOU DON'T HAVE A WINDOWS BASED COMPUTER, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SYNC DATA.
ON ONE AT SPRINT CAN HELP. YOU WOULD THINK IF SPRINT OFFERS THE PALM PHONES AS UPGRADES, THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE PALM CUSTOMERS INFORMATION ON HOW TO TRANSFER DATA TO WINDOWS MOBILE DEVICES. THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF MICROSOFT CONTROLLING THE WORLD OF TECHNOLOGY AND SPRINT AND PALM OBVIOUSLY THEIR SLAVES.
YOU'D THINK PALM WOULD BE PROUD ENOUGH WITH THEIR "AWARD WINNING OPERATING SYSTEM FOR PDA'S" AND NO DOUBT BEST, STABLE SOFTWARE FOR CELL PHONES, TO HAVE ENOUGH PRIDE TO MAKE A NEW PALM CELL PHONE THAT WOULD BE COMPATIBLE WITH THE SPRINT NAVIGATION SYSTEM... MAYBE THE CENTRO WAS THEIR LAST STAND. LAZY FOLKS, BLACKBERRY MOVING AHEAD...
NOTHING SYNCS... NOTHING TRANSFERS... AND NOTHING IS COMPATIBLE... IMAGINE!.... IF YOU WANT SPRINT NAVIGATION AND HAVE USED PALM PDA PHONES FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS... good luck.
I AM CHANGING CARRIERS AFTER 10 YEARS WITH SPRINT AS A LOYAL CUSTOMER... NO ONE CAN HELP. MY AVERAGE BILL WITH SPRINT IS $240 PER MONTH PAID IN FULL EACH MONTH AND NOW UNDERSTAND, THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO RESPOND TO THE NEEDS OF LOYAL CUSTOMERS.
PALM IS JUST AS GUILTY BY ENDORSING A NEW "PALM 800W" PHONE THAT CAN NOT TRANSFER INFORMATION FROM LOYAL PALM PDA CELL PHONE USERS TO THE "NEW PALM 800W", CAPABLE OF THE "NEW SPRINT NAVIGATION SYSTEM" PHONES.
TRY AT&T WITH THE IPHONE. MAYBE IT WILL TRANSFER DATA, SYNC WITH MAC AND BE AN ASSET NOT A MAJOR PROBLEM.
THE OTHER OPTION IS TO TRY THE "BLACKBERRY'S". UNLIKE PALM, THEY HAVE STAYED UP WITH TECHNOLOGY AND HAVE NEW PHONES OFFERED BY SPRINT THAT ARE COMPATIBLE WITH "SPRINT NAV" AND CAN TRANSFER OLD PALM FILES.

Respectfully, I can understand your frustration but no windows mobile based device is supported to sync to a Mac. Certainly this is frustrating but I would suggest research in the future if you require certain features in a product.

Sprint Nav after 1.3.1 update

I have a bone stock Pre which was purchased on day one of availability.I am having an issue with Sprint Nav where it will randomly truncate / drop all or part of a street name while giving voice directions. I have used this app daily and this was never an issue before the update.This became an issue after I updated to WebOS 1.3.1 this morning. I am aware that others are also having this issue (due to topics posted at another Palm Pre site). Is anyone aware of a fix for this as Sprint Nav is worthless (to me) without proper voice directions allowing me to keep my eyes on the road. I've already tried resetting the phone three times. No joy.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Same issues here with my Pre (1.3.1 on Sprint), and my sister as well with her Pixi (1.3.1 on Sprint). Spoken directions get truncated, which is the most glaring and annoying problem. But other sounds get cut off as well, just not as frequently for me. The Sprint Navigation (TeleNav) audio issue is horrendous, though.

How Do I stop the phone from locking while the navigation program is running.

I have a Blackberry 9630 V4.7.1.40. The phone is on an enterprise server network through work. The phone is set to password lock after a couple of min. of non-use. When I have the Sprint Navigation program running, the phone locks after a few min and loses my satellite. I then have to type in a password to unlock it and I then get the signal back.
I called Sprint and they said to press a button after every couple of min. to keep the phone "active". That sounds a little fishy to me!
How do I keep the phone from locking while the Nav. Application is running?
Thank you for your help

Agreed, that is the simplest thing to do... probably much easier than talking your IT guys into raising your timeout.

1.3.5 update - lookup map from Contacts doesn't work for Sprint Nav or Google maps

Is anyone able to tap on a contact's address in order to launch Sprint Navigation? Or even Google Maps? In my case, Google maps alway navigates to *my* address, not the contact's address I tapped on.
Worse, my Pre hangs on the Sprint Nav splash screen when choosing that option -- similar to what others are noticing. I copied this from another forum, as it describes my problem as well:
I updated Default Applications to launch Sprint Navigation for addresses. It certainly launches from an open Contact, but locks up on the splash screen. It never displays a map (nor anything else), and the menu doesn't function. Completely unresponsive. If I launch the app stand-alone, it works fine, so Sprint Navigation doesn't seem to be broken. It just doesn't work launching from a contact address.
I've switched the default app back and forth between Google Maps and Sprint Navigation, and did a couple restarts to no avail.
Regards,
Paul
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Thanks for the feedback and link to confirm this issue. I confirmed what the other fellow wrote on that thread:
if you already have Sprint Nav open, then click the address is goes fine.
I also "fixed" the issue in which Google maps loaded but always went to *my* location. I fixed this by exorcising the unofficial Google Latitude version of Maps from my Pre.I picked up this version by following a hyperlink to the beta Latitude a number of days ago, and ever since it had replaced the regular G Maps. I was able to clear Latitude off my device by pointing the browser to maps.google.com to reload the original flavor.After that, I am able to properly launch G Maps from a contact's address field. Whew!

Paul

Palm Pre GPS (SPRINT)

When I am using the GPS my battery does not charge when I have it plugged in. So when I am on long trips the phone goes off. Is there any way to set it so the battery will charge when using GPS?
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Could ya tell me the output rating of that charger? Sprint Navigation could use ALOT of power, based on your data coverage and how well a GPS signal you have, so might be a possibility that the charger is no longer keeping up with output demands of the service running on the phone.

Dear Palm: What I'd like in the next update

We know that webOS and the Palm Pre are 1.0 1.1 products, so we’re going to cut you some slack for now. But that slack is starting to run out, and looking at the competition there are some areas where I think you could improve the Pre to both catch up to and leap frog over iPhone and BlackBerry and Android. So here’s what I'd like to see in the way of software updates before that slack runs out and the real complaining starts.
My list is after the break, and it’s by no means comprehensive. Feel free to sound off in the comments if there’s something you think should be added in!
Oh, and Palm, this isn't an ultimatum or anything. It's a wishlist. Of stuff I want. So consider it a shopping list, and you're the grocery store. Some things we can do without, but others are staple items that we need to get through the week, and if you don't have it, we might have to go across town to the other grocery to get it. After a while, that can get kind of old and we might consider just going to the other store. We don't want to, as it's simply not as nice, but they have a lot of what we need.
Alert Tones. I can only take so much of “da-ding” before I lose my mind wondering if it’s an email or a text message or a low battery alert or... we need the option to change these tones. And not just “pick a new alert tone,” no, the ability to pick different tones for different alerts. And like we can assign specific ringtones to individual callers, the option to assign a tone to an email account (X for Gmail, Y for Exchange, etc) would be great. To a specific contact, even better.
App Catalog. As your posting of the Mojo SDK and anticipated expansion of the App Catalog would seem to indicate, you’re on your way to getting a full-on developer community going. That’s all well and good, but your application store needs some serious work. First off is speed: while once up it works just fine, the load time is interminably long for something that is more or less just a specialized web browser. Second is content: we seriously need more applications. Yes there's side-loading homebrew fun, but for 90% of your users the App Catalog is going to be their primary source of apps.
Autocorrection Software. While I do really like having a physical keypad, there’s something to be said for a robust autocorrection database. And that something to be said is, "Hey, that's kind of cool."
Cut, Copy, and Paste. It took Apple a while to get it working, but I’ve got to admit, they got it right. We need the ability to copy uneditable text, i.e. a website. Or a received text message. Simply put, this half-measure implementation of cut, copy, and paste in webOS isn’t going to cut it for long (pun only partly intended).
Backup. Either I need an option to back up my applications and data on my computer, or Palm Backup needs to be updated such that when I have to reset/replace my phone I don’t have to spend half an hour reconfiguring all the settings that were lost. That means contact link associations, calendar colors, and third-party application settings. You don’t need to back up everything (like photos and music), but it won’t take a huge server investment on your part to build a more robust back-up solution.
Battery Life. Simply put, it’s not good enough. My Pre - with a Seidio extended battery – still barely makes it through a long day on the road. There are only so many things I can turn off before it stops being useful.
Bluetooth. OBEX. Now. Don’t be all authoritarian on us and not let us send our contact information or files over Bluetooth. This is a smartphone that you want people to use for business things. Like actually exchanging contact information over something other than Facebook. Beside that, OBEX support would let me easily transfer files and the like without hassling with trying to connect to a computer with WiFi.
Calendar Attendees. Roger McNamee said our Pre would be able to track our location and alert meeting attendees that we were running late. While that would be fantastic, we aren’t expecting that option to appear any time soon, perhaps we can start down that path by giving us the option to add calendar appointment attendees.
Camera Options. If my Treo 650 could do it, then my Pre should be able to do it, no? We need the ability to adjust resolution of photos, as well as color options (the old standbys of sepia and black-and-white and the like). If you want to give us some more in-depth options, like white balance and saturation adjustment, or even the ability to adjust just how much post-processing the awesome camera chip does, that’d be fine too.
Context Linking. This is a slightly more advanced request, but this is also a modern smartphone with a powerful operating system. If I enter a phone number, address, or email in a note or memo, the phone needs to notice what it is and give me options to call/text, map, or email with that data.
Email Formatting. This is a two-fold update. One: dark blue is classy and all, but I like basic black as the default. Two: this screwy reply/forward formatting has got to end. When I forward an email to a colleague, I want them to get the same email that I got.
Email Sort. While full email search should be built into Universal Search, there are some search options that need to be built into the email application. Let me sort by more than just date and flagged - how about the option to see just unread messages, or messages from Joe?
External Notifications. If I walk away from my phone and come back a while later and missed a call, plus four emails and two text messages, I have no way of knowing until I turn the phone on. Our enterprising homebrew developer community has figured out how to hack the center button light so that it lights up on new alerts, so we know it won’t be that hard to implement.
Google Maps. It works on all manner of other devices, so it’s time to add Street View and Latitude features to the webOS version of Google Maps. Additionally, transit and pedestrian mapping options would certainly be nice. And as webOS apps are supposed to be saving all the time, let Google Maps pick up right where it left off after closing the card. It’s one of those things to make it just that much faster.
Landscape Mode. It’s nice and all to have it in the browser, but it’s time to start adding landscape mode to more applications, like email, memos, and Doc and PDF View. Also, I need to be able to easily access menus while sideways, what use is an accelerometer-enabled phone if it's handicapped when rotated?
Launcher. We know it can be done, so just flip the switch and let us to add more launcher pages and be done with it.
IM Clients. The framework is there, it’s time to flip the switch and give us more than AIM and Google Talk. Give us Windows Live and Yahoo to start, and then some of the more obscure options like ICQ and Facebook chat.
Media Sync. Apple has taken their ball and gone home, and while a cat-and-mouse game of fixing and breaking iTunes synchronization certainly is fun, especially for us at PreCentral, we’re don't want to have to deal with our media synchronization abilities being broken and fixed all the time. So build in some more options for how we sync our media, or even just build your own media sync plugin for all variety of programs. On that same note, it's a little silly that iTunes is the only way to transfer a playlist to my phone - there's no reason this shouldn't work over USB too.
Music Player. First off we need the option to remember playback locations, especially for podcasts and audiobooks. Secondly, in that same vein, we need the option to scrub along the playback slider (like it’s actually a slider) to scrub through a song.
Notifications. Before I say this, I want to say that the notification bar is absolutely fantastic. It’s one of webOS’s best features, in my not so humble opinion. But... it doesn’t work in landscape. We don’t need a persistent landscape notification bar, but when I get an email while browsing in landscape mode, all I get is a chime and buzz. Add in a landscape pop-up bar just to tell me what happened (and then it can go away) and we’ll be set.
Phone As Modem. You said it was going to work at launch, and we know it can work, but Sprint clearly has put the kibosh on the official solution we know you can implement. Talk to them, we’ll pay if you at least give us the choice. That's more money for Sprint, and we know they’d like that. We need Bluetooth and USB solutions, and if you can get us WiFi hot-spot-ish capabilities, you might just get a big hug from yours truly.
Scroll Bar. The inertial flick scrolling is nice and all, but sometimes I have a really long webpage or list and repeatedly flicking and flicking and flicking gets rather irritating. A controllable scroll bar would do wonders for this qualm. It doesn’t even have to be persistent like the Palm OS of old, in fact I’d prefer it not. Here’s an example: I flick to start scrolling and a translucent scroll bar appears, then I can grab onto it and slide all the way down the page to where I want to be. When I release, it fades away. Magic, no?
Sprint Navigation. It’s nice that I can map a contact’s address directly from their contact entry, but when you have the actually-pretty-decent Sprint Navigation application included, why on Earth can’t I send the address over there for real navigation? Same goes for Calendar event locations.
Syncing Tasks/Memos. Being able to sync my tasks with Exchange is nice and all, if I have an Exchange account. But what of us that don’t? Maybe Google Tasks would be a good option, especially now that it’s out of beta. Additionally, applications like Memos need some sort of syncronization option for PC-based editing, even if that has to be through my Palm Profile.
Text Messages. Forwarding. Really.
Undo. This goes along with the upgraded cut, copy, and paste request. There are times when I hit delete and utter expletives at my idiocy. With a simple undo command I’d live a life with less profanity.
Universal Search. Make. It. Universal. Applications, contacts, and the web are fun and all, but you guys in Sunnyvale need to make it truly universal. I should be able to search my emails and memos and tasks. And if you really want to go wild and crazy, allow third-party applications to join the search mix. All of this information of course means we’re going to need some Universal Search options to filter and order things the way we need them.
Video Recording. It took Apple two years to get it on the iPhone. We don’t necessarily need fancy video editing tools (but we won’t complain if we get them), but the hardware is more than capable of supporting video recording.
Virtual Keyboard. At least for landscape mode. Don’t get me wrong, I love the physical keyboard, but I like options.
Visual Voicemail. Sprint licensed visual voicemail to work on the Samsung Instinct, so it’s time to get them to do it for the Pre. I don’t want to use the excuse of “the iPhone has it,” but it does. So does the BlackBerry Storm.

Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I think this is an excellent indicator that not only is Palm reviewing the feedback from the support forums here, but actively reviewing feedback/comments/wishes on other sites as well.
As the original poster copied this (quite solid, IMO) wishlist from Pre Central, the palm support staff acknowledged first seeing it there.

Suggestion for the next update

WebOS 1.4.0 had some great improvements...but there is one other improvement I would love to see. If you receive a text message or email with an address, it would be nice to be able to tap and hold the address and have the ability to use that address with Sprint Navigator. This way Sprint Navigator would open automatically and the desired address is already populated. I really hope Palm can add this type of feature.

Good idea. Suggest using the official palm Feature Request page here. www.palm.com/feedback

How to preserve your battery all day - MUST READ

when roaming out in the boonies this past weekend, my phone died within ~6 hours without using it at all. i was pretty annoyed.
the second day, i did the following:
1) turned off GPS and Google location services
2) turned off data roaming
3) turned off data usage
turning off these three things immediately reaped benefits. my battery life went down about 2% per hour without using it. off the charger at 9am, texted for maybe half an hour off and on (i.e. the screen was probably on a total of 30 minutes) and i made one 5 minute roaming phone call. still about 70% by 5pm.
i turned on data usage and data roaming the next day, and sure enough, the phone was hosed by like 3pm.
i know some of you need to use data/GPS heavily, and the only way to deal with it is to get a second battery. however, with data off, you can still call and text message, and that alone is acceptable to me when in roaming-only country land.
i don't know if this suggestion has been posted. if it has, please lock/delete this thread.
also, there have been complaints about the phone just being off sometimes, with the user having to power it back up. webOS has been blamed, but i think it's just the fit of the battery. i've found that even light jarring of the phone on its end can disrupt the connection at the battery to the phone, so i took a post-it, cut a small strip the length of the battery, folded it in half once, and placed it between the rounded end of the battery and the phone (on the side of the battery). it keeps it more snug and in place, and i have not discovered my phone to be off since i did this.
it's kind of a ghetto fix, but honestly, i never take the battery out anyway, so i don't mind.

also, it should be noted that i live in the DC area, and even with data usage and data roaming enabled, my battery still only drops like 2-3%/hr if i'm not using it. if i take it off the charger at 9am, by 5pm, i'm at about 75% with maybe 5 minutes of phone calling, 5 minutes of texting, and ~15 minutes of internet use (mostly mobile sites like m.cnn.com, etc).
if i use sprint TV or navigation, it seems to drain the battery very quickly, but i can always plug it in either to my computer, an outlet, or into the USB connector in my car. it's certainly not bad for a small 1150mAh battery, but i wouldn't count on using sprint navigation as a replacement for a true garmin/tom tom.
however, when i'm using navigation in the car and i'm also listening to music via bluetooth audio, the audio will drop by 90% in volume for the turn-by-turn voice instructions to come through my car's speakers, which is really nice.

Having some Issues After Installing Windows Vista

I just recently installed Windows Vista Ultimate 32 Bit SP1 on my Intel iMac running OS 10.6. I thought everything was good until I noticed 2 things. 1. I did not have a Boot Camp icon in the system try, nor could I find it listed in control panels. 2. When I tried connecting to the internet via Internet Explorer while in Windows, it told me that I did not have a internet or network connection. When I'm on the Mac OS X side my internet connection is fine. I tried reinstalling the drivers, but my only options were install CD/DVD or to connect my computer to another computer. I tried installing them manually but I noticed a yellow exclamation point on my iSight and Broadcom drivers. I can't update them because I can't connect to the internet. Can anyone help? Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I'm not a PC expert. Thanks!

Hi Adeedo,
Even I have the same kind of problem. After reading an update features list, I turned off and on the "Network Time Zone" button, its the same issue and its almost an hour its still saying that "Waiting for Network Time. After reboot the msg didn't appear but after turn off and turn on, same issue.
Seems like the update broken this issue while fixing the part of not showing the city and country when the "Network Time Zone" option is turned on.
I have got the 1.3.5 features info from the following link.
http://www.everythingpre.com/forum/palm-webos/official-webos-1-3-5-update-discussion-25209.html
( Date & Time
When the user has Network time zone enabled, a city and country are no longer displayed.
I got this phone recently two week ago, and it was on WebOs 1.2.1 till i upgraded to 1.3.5 a week ago.
I am also having some other issues like Alarm. I have set two alarms one at 6.30 am and another at 6.45 am. It used to work fine, like getting buzzed for two alarms one after the other till before I update to 1.3.5. Today morning i observed that i got the buzz for first alarm, but i was waiting for the second one and it didn't come at all. I dismissed the first one. The phone was in charging using AC power.

A user can launch Sprint Navigation from an address in an open contact entry in Contacts
Either this statement is wrong or the update is not working as it supposed to if this statement is correct. When i click the address from the open contact entry it takes me to Googles Page but not to Sprint Navigation launcher. Either i am doing wrong. Some one can help me how to launch Sprint navigation from the contact entry.
