NDrive 10 - What's New?
Redesigned user interface
We've made the interface simpler for you. Now you can interact with the interface and choose which information you want to see.


TTS - Text-to-Speech(1)
NDrive now has the capability of telling you the street name following the maneuver. With this feature you will hear the voice instruction indicating the street you're about to enter.

Signposts(2)
With Signposts it's even easier to identify where you need to exit or stay. Road signs are displayed on the top of the map to better orientate you in complex junctions and highways.


Lane Assitance(3)


It has never been easier to choose the right lane to stay in. Lane Assistance will tell you the correct lane(s) to stay in, to make your next maneuver easier and safer.







Online POIs(4)
Search for Online POIs from your NDrive using search engines like GoogleTM and find additional POIs in any location.

2010 Maps
Upgrade now and benefit from 2010 maps.When you upgrade to NDrive 10, your maps are updated to the latest version available, featuring the latest changes on the roads and updated POIs (when available).

NDrive Store
Now you’ll be able to easily purchase new maps and download other voices and radars for free.
With the embedded NDrive Store, all NDrive products are available from your phone and are just a
few clicks away!

As imagens tridimensionais são obtidas a partir de fotografias aéreas captadas pela empresa norueguesa Blom. Recorrendo a tecnologia avançada, imagens de 5 ângulos diferentes, permitem ao utilizador a visualização de todas as perspectivas.

Just took a test drive with map for Germany and German voice, no noticeable lag. GPS fix was really fast, and portrait and landscape modes indeed run smooth. Only "complaint" I would have that German voice is not a native speaker, so "Anna" sounds a little bit...well, like a Portuguese girl... :-) Great selection of available maps, including more exotic (from a German view) countries like from Asia and Africa. Western Europe map collection has 2.7G, so should provide nice detail for some metro cities.

Software looks good so not having a go at that but I run the HD version copilot 7 and that also works fine in landscape without altering files, just doesn't have auto rotation built in.

I'm using the Ndrive V 3.4.19 Real Navigation (updated yesterday), and just for Portugal I need 7Gb for the imaging

Love the software, stopped using IGO8 and TomTom , but I do get tiny bit of Lag, ( does not compromise driving), not Ndrive fault, It's and HTC HD characteristic:p

I am testing NDrive but cannot get GPS working - no GPS. Could someone please post me the NDrive.ini passages:

Or do I need a GPS fix?

Which zipped voices do you have in ndrive\voices ? Because choosing a voice also seems to install the language.

14th March 2009, 02:37 PM
originally during instalation i only had maryen, then i added all other voices, which i can see if i go (bindly) to the language settings and i can choose any other language but the fonts dont change

Eriol, my ndrive.ini has the same settings, but they do not seem to matter - program shows my GPS in HD on port 4. Have attached my untouched ini, maybe it will help you. Just had to change .ini to .txt, so I could attach it. Change back to .ini

NDrive 3D Navigation

http://img237.imageshack.us/img237/5523/ndrivemainlogo.png (http://www.imagehosting.com/)

Bonjour à tous,comme promis voici un petit retour concernant ce logiciel de navigation gps on board en 3D .



Présentation en images :

http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/pccapture124.jpg (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/pccapture124.php) http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/pccapture213.jpg (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/pccapture213.php)http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/pccapture37.jpg (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/pccapture37.php) http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/pccapture42.jpg (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/pccapture42.php) http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/pccapture51.jpg (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/pccapture51.php)http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/pccapture61.jpg (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/pccapture61.php) http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/pccapture70.jpg (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/pccapture70.php) http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/pccapture80.jpg (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/pccapture80.php)



Commentaires :

NDrive 3D est disponible en téléchargement sur le site officiel (http://www.ndriveweb.com/products/ndrive-phone/) pour la modique somme de 40 € pour la version France après inscription sur le site,l'application étant gratuite après paiement de la carte du pays concerné . Le mail envoyé contient donc les 2 liens de téléchargement ainsi que la clé pour débloquer le logiciel .

NDrive Agent se télécharge également gratuitement sur le site,ce logiciel PC sorte d'ActiveSync pour le logiciel de navigation permet de synchroniser le pda pour des éventuelles mises à jour .L'éditeur fourni également une base de données radar disponible aussi en téléchargement via NDrive Agent pour la carte du pays concerné .

Toutefois il est possible via l'application que nos amis de XDA ont mis en ligne suite à l'ouverture de mon post,d'utiliser un logiciel PC pour convertir sa propre base de données radar . Egalement disponible,l'équivalent pour convertir ses propres POI . Les 2 logiciels XDA se trouvent en pièces jointes .



Ajouts des radars et des POI :

Comme décrit ci-dessus utilisez les applications suivantes :

http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/180d30e526bd5f02d07a4e47e830b0d33.bmp (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/180d30e526bd5f02d07a4e47e830b0d33.php) http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/2a90b127a8f486b1b69a18ca28d620bb4.bmp (http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/2a90b127a8f486b1b69a18ca28d620bb4.php)

La manip est trés simple,il suffit de copier vos radars ou bien vos poi dans le dossier PDI des logiciels respectifs puis de lancer la conversion . A noter que pour les poi persos,le nom du poi ainsi que l'image ( au format png ) devront porter le même nom . Les radars se mettront ensuite dans le dossier speedcams du logiciel et les poi dans le dossier favorites . Ne pas oublier ensuite de les importer via le menu configuration du logiciel de navigation pour les intégrer à la base de donnée du logiciel de navigation ( voir image 8 , importation / exportation de données ) .



Test sur route :

Le logiciel étant compatible avec une multitude de pda ( y compris le HD ;D ) il n'y a aucun bidouillage quelconque pour le fonctionnement . Celui fonctionne aussi bien en mode portrait qu'en mode paysage ( possibilité d'utiliser la rotation d'écran ou un logiciel du style Gyrator ou similaire ) .

Mes premières impressions sont plutôt bonnes , un fix gps quasi instantané dès le démarrage du logiciel,la navigation est fluide ( 3D absent chez moi , petite ville oblige ;D ) , la voix féminine est très claire et le son est fort ( réglé sur 4 d'origine ) . La voix n'est pas TTS mais comme d'autres logiciels concurrents elle vous mènera à bon port . Sur la route la navigation est fluide,aucun ralentissement ou bug constatés . J'aime bien l'affichage de la vitesse ainsi que le défilement du nom des rues en bas de l'écran . L'affichage des changements de direction se font un peu comme sur iGO8 . Un point positif aussi , c'est la possibilité de classer ses propres poi en plusieurs catégories . Bien entendu des poi d'origine un peu comme Tomtom sont fournis avec le logiciel . Il est possible également d'avoir une alerte sonore pour le dépassement de vitesse . Je regrette l'absence d'alerte vocale personnalisable ( celle d'origine comme "attention radar caché, réduisez votre vitesse" ) est un peu longue, en espérant que cela soit modifiable dans une prochaine version ...


Conclusion :

Même si son utilisation reste très basique,aucune customisation n'est possible,Ndrive reste un bon logiciel de navigation pour ceux et celles qui cherchent la simplicité à un prix abordable ...

I explain it but in french in my post above so :

For speedcams :

- put ov2 files in PDI folder
- start the software
- put the files in the correct folder with the arrow
- click on "create database"
- the kml file is created in cams folder

For Poi :

- put ov2 files in PDI folder
- start the software
- double click onto the poi file to move it in the poi inserted folder
- click on "create database"
- the kml file is created in cams folder

15th March 2009, 09:38 PM
Ervius, thanks, but can you explain where kml is written to after generating it i.e. with test.csv - cannot find it. Step-by-step instructions welcome.

put csv (or asc or ov2) files into my program \pdi subfolder, then execute program....
move from right side to left one the pois you want compile.....
compile and finally have or unique kml file (speedcams!) or more kml files.
if speedcams, it goes on ppc into storage card, in subfolder
ndrive\speedcams

if pois they go into storage card , into
ndrive\favorites folder,
with they go also all images (same name of poi.kml and same directory, and they must be .png images)
run ndrive on ppc.....
select import/export data
(import allerts or import favorites),
when you are at 100% importing you 'll be able to see
new speedcams (only on map)
and
new favorites on favorites menu!
bye!

Works fine.
Trying to see if anyone knows if converting a TomTom voice to
the format used by NDrive, is possible.
TomTom
data64.bmp
data64.chk
data64.vif

NDrive is a zip file with 128 files. (.wav; .iu8; .bin; .png; .xml; .info)

All I know is that the new German native voice Stefanie has been self created with this program http://www.linguatec.net/onlineservices/voice_reader/ The German voice might sound familiar to you from other navigation programs :-)

The NDrive people should be very thankful, their German-Portuguese voice sucks bigtime...

I think, it's a chip-issue and not a software issue, or am i wrong? I bought the HD to use it as my car navigation BUT:after some tests i decided to use my old navi-combo (tomtom+HTC Tytn+ a 5 year old bluetooth mouse) because it has no lag. i am very angry about this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi ervius, can you please upload both programs again? Since the links are down...
For the speedcams: Do the generated files also include direction and range information?

Thank you!

I think, it's a chip-issue and not a software issue, or am i wrong? I bought the HD to use it as my car navigation BUT:after some tests i decided to use my old navi-combo (tomtom+HTC Tytn+ a 5 year old bluetooth mouse) because it has no lag. i am very angry about this.

I did so too, but it's just on the brink of beeing unusable due to the lag. :mad:

Hello

Do you have the same problem as me :

Every I do a check for update with the ndrive agent it says the I have old version of the agent and need to update...

Do you do the check with active sync or you plug the memory card in your pc directly ?

Thanks in advance

I just bought Ndrive and North America maps yesterday, and I must thank you guys for introducing me to this company. I didn't know it existed, and I think it's incredible software.

I don't know if it's just the NA maps or the WinMo app, but I definitely do NOT get any 3D view. It's just a simple drawing-like view like all the other ones. So at least for NA maps, it looks like you have to have one of their units.

as far as i understand you would also have to buy the "3D Photo Maps on a 8GB SDHC card"

product website and list of supported countries and cities:
http://www.ndriveweb.com/products/product/40/

and even then, i can only guess that you would have to copy those files to your micro-sd card to get it to work somehow?!

but the website says:
Compatible with all NDrive G280, G400, G800 and Touch/Touch XL models.
(please note that the 3d maps appear to be compatible to their own devices only)

I think if your country does not have 3d photo maps available you just get 3d landmarks on the ordinary maps. If you go into the city you may find them maybe.

The version that came with my tmn hd didn't work in landscape, and i send an email to ndrive asking when they expect to have a new version that work in landscape and they didn't know, i don't like their suport, they took about 3 weeks to answer my email. If they have a solution for landscape i will buy, i have a 3 month version.
In that time i tried with all app gyrator, gsen and change screen, but no sucess, in landscape navigation freeze a lot.
Is there a new version that works in landscape in hd?
Which rotation software to use?

Realview is nice, but if you follow this thread you realize that Portugal alone has 7GB files for photos. Other countries (Greece is already) will be available in April. But I stick with TT and iGo, NDrive is just too basic and unflexible. I dont need nice pictures of what I can see outside, I need precision and flexibility in parameters to achieve the perfect route.

There is no trial, but I encourage MJRL to share his 3-month trial one for you :-)

When you go round a roundabout you can see the navigation arrow going round with you and you come out of the roundabout and the next instruction is there waiting for you within seconds. I've never seen that precision on my Touch HD using navigation software. That's how TT6 used to be on my Polaris.

With TT7 and Touch HD if you go round a roundabout when you leave the roundabout it will take 10-20 seconds to catch up with your position and give you the next instruction.

Hello,just a little bug during driving,the speed limit seems to be the same for all maps . For me the speed indicate 80 km/h ( in France is 90 ) and 120 km/h on motorway ( 130 km/h in France ) . I think the settings are only for portuguese people ...

You can delete a past that has the realview pictures and after that, NDRIVE only has about 1gb for Portugal maps.
And the program still works (only with the map view and not the real pictures, of course).

alerts db editor version 1.0

what it do:
you have to load "alerts" database into....
you can:
edit records; add records manually; delete records, delete all records and imports speedcams from ".asc" and ".csv" files

the updated alerts database is stored into \cams subfoder, while speedcams files have to be stored into \pdi subfolder...

Hello,
yesterday i've found a website with the software + many many maps for Ndrive. Its "free" and you can download it there. You only have to register there, but thats a little thingy which will consume 2min of your time :)

The Website is in German, but the Forum registration is equal to any other forum, so u wont have any problems. After that u can see the Text from the first Posting and can start downloading it.

I've tried it yesterday, like i said, and its cool. Yeah, no Photomap, but the normal map, and it works very fast and i like it more that Igo.

Thats the website.

wow what a killer app.

Copied files and installed in 5 minutes.

Start up is incredibly fast on Dutty's latest.

Without any settings, got a fix to 8 connections in 15 seconds outdoor.

UI is so simple and lean, it all works flawlessly.

Knowing that iGo, TTN 7 and Navigon were barely working before on my device, I'm glad I gave this app a try.

Thx for the find guys !

The software works like a charm, but I never was able to make the speedcam feature work in Ndrive. Neither display the icons of the speedcams at their location, nor fire an alarm when approaching one. That's sad, because that's really the only thing that keeps me from throwing Tomtom and iGO to the recycle bin.

So if anybody could explain how to do that, that would really help a lot. For info, I'm looking specifically to activate the feature in Belgium, Spain and France.

NDrive V9 NEW version

www.ndrive.com

navega para novas funcionalidades




A NDrive mostrou hoje a última versão do seu software de navegação. O produto, que começa a ser comercializado a partir do próximo dia 23 de Maio, inclui seis grandes novidades, a que se junta o facto de oferecer compatibilidade com um maior número de sistemas móveis.

Ao contrário das versões anteriores, restritas à utilização em sistemas Windows Mobile, esta V9 passa a funcionar também em sistemas Symbian (usado nos smartphones de marcas como a Nokia, a Samsung ou a LG), no iPhone (a partir de um de Junho) e em sistemas com Android.

Outra novidade é precisamente o tipo de designação dado às versões de software, que a partir de agora passam a ser identificadas pelo ano de lançamento, V9, neste caso.

Entre as principais novidades da V9 do NDrive é possível encontrar novidades mais interessantes para utilizadores profissionais, de interesse genérico para qualquer utilizador e especificamente pensadas para diferentes contextos de lazer.

Nas funcionalidades pensadas para utilizadores profissionais destaque para a possibilidade que passa a existir de pesquisar no software informação sobre empresas. Integram a base de pesquisa disponível mais de 250.000 empresas, referências que se juntam à informação sobre pontos de interesse, já disponíveis nas versões anteriores. Isto permite que o utilizador introduza no sistema o nome da empresa, tenha alguma informação adicional e programe automaticamente a rota para lá chegar.



Outra novidade pensada sobretudo para os utilizadores profissionais, mas que pode ser interessante também para outros perfis é a possibilidade dada ao utilizador de criar trajectos encadeados, gravá-los e partilhá-los com outros. Uma função que a empresa admite ter sido pensada para ajudar quem precisa de fazer entregas em vários destinos e quer registar as melhores formas de o fazer para recuperar em ocasiões futuras.



De interesse mais genérico é a possibilidade que a nova versão do software oferece ao utilizador de seguir um caminho que pode não ser aquele que está cotado como a melhor opção para ligar determinados pontos. A NDrive explica que aqui pretende responder sobretudo a questões práticas como a entrada ou saída numa cidade em horas de trânsito, durante as quais o percurso matematicamente mais adequado pode não se revelar o melhor.



Uma outra novidade que a empresa lança com a versão 2009, e espera de grande sucesso, é a informação sobre trânsito. A empresa admite que esta ainda é uma oferta limitada na capacidade para fornecer uma informação abrangente do tráfego na cidade de Lisboa e Porto mas espera conseguir melhorais significativas ao longo do ano, com o aumento do número de pontos de informação a alimentar o serviço. Hoje são cerca de 250 até final do ano deverão passar a 500 ou 600.



A edição 2009 do software de navegação da NDrive faz também uma piscadela de olho aos aventureiros, com a introdução de um modo aventura. Quando configura o seu sistema para o modo aventura o utilizador fica com uma ferramenta de navegação para actividades fora da estrada. Neste modo não há outra informação pré-carregada, para além daquela que também está disponível no modo normal, o utilizador pode é descarregar da Internet para o sistema de navegação (do Google Maps, por exemplo) diferentes tipos de anotações que podem ajudá-lo a orientar-se em caminhadas, passeios de BTT, passeios de barco ou mesmo durante a pilotagem de uma aeronave.

Finalmente, destaque para um incentivo à partilha de informação no âmbito da comunidade de utilizadores NDrive. As versões anteriores do software já permitiam que o utilizador fosse mapeando restaurantes, bares ou qualquer grupo de locais de interesse nos seus favoritos. Na nova versão pode partilhar essa informação com outros. Se decidir publicar online o que coleccionou, a informação publicada (o que de forma imediata só pode acontecer se o utilizador aceder a partir do telemóvel) ficará disponível para toda a comunidade, que pode votá-la numa lógica de classificação do interesse para quem a vê.



Quando começar a chegar às lojas, no próximo dia 23, a V9 do sistema de navegação NDrive ainda não disponibiliza informação de trânsito, devido a uma parceria que a empresa fez com a TMN e que permitirá à operadora comercializar a funcionalidade em exclusivo por um período de três meses. Após esse período, qualquer utilizador da nova versão terá também acesso à informação dinâmica de trânsito de forma gratuita.

A V9 chegará progressivamente aos vários mercados onde a NDrive está. No caso do trânsito a aplicação estará disponível sempre que existam parcerias com entidades responsáveis pela gestão de câmaras que monitorizem o tráfego. Existem algumas outras funcionalidades que podem ter acesso limitado, quer noutros mercados, quer em Portugal, mas pelo tipo de dispositivo usado para usufruir do serviço, nos casos em que exista conectividade. Por exemplo, a opção comunidades tem uso limitado nos dispositivos de navegação simples só podendo ser usada em pleno com a ajuda de um PC.

Actualizar uma versão antiga do software de navegação NDrive para a nova versão vai custar 20 euros. A compra de uma nova licença custará 40 euros.

Sempre foi grátis os udates e era o ponto forte da Ndrive a pagar, para quem adquiriu recentemente um apareho ou licença, enfim lá se vão os clientes lol

Yeah, great, good that we all speak Portuguese...not! Software release is May 23rd

NDrive announces new version V9

The new version will have new V9 features the ability to search by name of business, instead of its address and is already included in the database 250 thousand enterprises to Portugal. It adds new features such as the ability to create routes, alternative routings, the method of off-road navigation and others.

Another innovation of this new system are the traffic information but this is necessary for the device has connected to mobile communications. "This was a partnership that we did with TMN in isolation for a period of three months and currently is only available on the phone Bluebelt," said Eduardo gorse, Administrator of NDrive.

The compatibility of the NDrive will also be extended to the iPhone platform and Google's Android operating system in addition to already supported Windows Mobile, Symbian and WINCO.

This new version will update them paid, and a new license will cost 40 euros and for whom customer NDrive cost is 20 euros, in this case the map of Portugal. Eduardo gorse justifies this by established trade agreements that support some of the new features.

The NDrive V9 will be available to update before the end of May, while the iPhone will only be available from June 1st. On the phone that will have the Android software from Google, which has not yet come to Portugal, also will be available later.

Hi
I have read all the pages but did not find the answer. I have 3.4.19 installed on Diamond HD. Program runs and gets the GPS lock fine. But when I put any map from Canada or US, the program gets stuck on initial screen. At the bottom for a few seconds it says Loading Maps... and then it just shuts down. If I remove all the maps from maps folder, program works fine.


Thanks for the help eveyone!!

You can disable stretching in NDrive.ini

Just modify StretchMap = false

[HTC Touch HD T8282]
StretchMap = false
DPI = 245
Key.VolumeUp = 0x75
Key.VolumeDown = 0x76

[HTC T8282]
StretchMap = false
DPI = 245
Key.VolumeUp = 0x75
Key.VolumeDown = 0x76

Hi, you can use comm manager + and create a new shortcut , you can also use gyrator or similar . ( I prefer comm manager + and it works fine for me ) .

I'm having some problems with my Touch HD,

It keeps telling me no gps found.
Don't know what to do?
Do I have to change some preferences?
Hopefully someone can help me.

Please!, could somebody guide me step by step through the installation process?

I've downloaded the complete western europe map, and have installed the ndrive agent on my pc. Then ive copied all the maps via the option "active sync" in the map agent on to Touch HD (is that right?, cause i've vista...).

And now? - when I click "open" on the agent, he says "no device found, please try again"...when i look under programs in my winmo menu, there is no entry for ndrive, even all the maps are at my storage card...what do I have to do:confused::(

Hi
Bought the europmap version online yesterday and tried to install it, but I must have missed something?
Installed first: NDrive_app.exe to my HD, then NDrive_Europ.map.exe, but got the message_ The installation volume does not have enough memory
Free: 2671Mb Required: 2777 Mg
I've a new 16G memory card.
What went wrong:confused:

I tried version 3.4.19, unfortunately it has made several serious navigation errors. TT7 and IGO8 didn't make these errors taking the same route. Perhaps it is the area that I live, but route errors are a no no. The refresh rate is good, but available options are few in comparison to the other nav apps. Maybe in the next version it will be improved....
I'm afraid IGO8 with smooth 3D graphics is still the king in my book.

Folks,

Anyone has experienced importing Destinator 6, 7 or 8 versions of their radar/POIs files to Ndrive? And successfully? All Destinator files are DAT files which Ervius tool does not import.

How's that? Any idea?

Lastest version works really fine in Brazil. No problema faced at all. :D

I tried to uninstall NDrive. The HD said the uninstall was successful but all the files were still there. I had to delete everything manually, including some entries in the registry. I hope this doesn't happen to everyone, if so, that is a bad bug.

Hi my friend :),
My first question is:
Could U re build link to :
alerts db editor version 1.0
and
new version of pois and speedcams importer
because they all dead :(

Second question is :
I understand that the speedcams are work on your device.. please, could U one more time type hire a manual how we can do it (use your program-> connect .kml file with allerts file->put it to correct folder-> and enjoy using NDrive with speedCameras) :D
I’m thinking about step by step idiot instruction :P.
For me, main problem is connect .kml file with allerts file it doesn’t work. When I just put .kml file to NDrive\speedcams. I know that I need to do something with allerts file but I don't know what.
And finally, when I need only speedCams I have to do some thing with .png files ? - I Hope that U put some thing obout this in to Instruction.

Thank U for everything ;)

Ok, I made one step forward ..
I find your aplication on another forum .. I've got now Ndrive-Pois-importer.exe 1.1 with only "Poi inserted" and "Poi to insert" window.

tell me now how it use to made SpeedCam working file ;)

Is it necessary to add a .png file to made SpeedCam file ?. Or we use .png olny for POI's like Hospital, Hotels, Gas Station etc.. ?

and what with alerts file :confused:

Best regards :rolleyes:

start to convert Ndrive-speedcams-importer.exe after having put the file. ov2
or. cvs in a subfolder of Ndrive pdi-speedcams-importer
click on create database and automatically creates a file. kml folder
cams which will then copy the folder: E: / NDrive / speedcams mobile.
start the browser, menu - configuration - data import export - import alert
and click on file. kml file which will install automatically.

It seems to be very easy ! .. very ..
But It doesn't work

Hello friends,

I'm using NDrive ver. 3.5.24 (854) DI with the Greek maps.

It runs smooth on my HD and the overall size of maps for Greece is close to 4 Gigs.

It's an amazing software and the maps is an eye catcher.

I have to tell you that it came along with the HD in the package.

I've been using NDrive for a few days now. Map installation procedure wasn't smooth, it interrupted in the middle but I found the temporary ZIP file with the maps in the Documents and Settings folder during install, so that I've finally managed.

For the rest, ultrafast, good GPS recognition and excellent route calculation, POI's are excellent, ease of use, nice feel, nice look, all in all better than the Garmin software I've been using before. Also better than the TomTom navigator, which once told me "Turn around wherever possible" on a highway ... Hopefully, NDrive will include real navigation in future versions, as this is quite handy for pedestrial mode.

sorry guys but i've had nothing but trouble with this application.. this whole thread seems like an advert to me (yeah i fell for it) but maybe i'm being cynical..
i had a recent trip to eastern europe so purchased the eastern europe map.. i tried to activate the program when i reached hungary but it steadfastly refused to work.. also it left my gps running.. i didn't find out until the battery ran out in the middle of nowhere (ukraine):rolleyes:
i reinstalled the uk map and it came back on but i couldn't get a signal even though the settings were ok (stock htc rom btw).. so i ran the update and got the 'bad image file ' message like the previous poster.. (so you aren't alone mate)
i've emailed them a couple of times.. i wait with baited breath.. can't help thinking i should have bought a stand alone unit.. shame tom tom only works on poxy 2 gig ram sticks (i emailed them about this)..
i'll let you know how i get on.. the tech support seems a bit flakey:mad:

ok guys.. finally got a reply 8.9.09.. 5 days not too bad i suppose.. marked high priority.. perhaps they saw this post:p
can confirm all working well now.. here are the instructions they sent.. i've edited out the links as the files may be copyright.. but if you have them already then they are the same as the ones on the website.. also i've made minor edits to make it simpler to follow (in <> brackets)

The best solution for your case would be to perform a manual installation of the Ndrive software and respective maps we provide from the links below.


Before installing the Ndrive application, please go to Start > Settings > System tab <in activesync> and select Remove Programs. Click on NDrive for Windows Mobile and then remove button.<remember the 'uncheck' box removes in activesync.. counterintuitive but hey> After that, perform a new installation from the links provided below.


NDrive Software for Pocket Pc: ..ppc_3.5.26.zip




1º Download the NDrive software to your computer;
2º Connect your GPS <mobile>to the computer through the USB cable, activesync will find the equipment;
3º Go to activesync, and click "Explore". Access "My windows mobile based device" and access "Storage Card";
4º Open the zipped file you have downloaded and extract the 2577 and NDrive folders to the "Storage Card";
5º Wait until the files have been copied to your device;
6º Disconnect the USB cable. The NDrive installation shall begin. If not, go to the 2577 folder and click on "autorun";<i had to do the second option>
7º After the NDrive software is installed, install the maps provided below:

<whatever your maps are..>

1 - Download the maps to your computer;
2 - Connect the GPS device to your computer. Keep your GPS in the main menu (do not start ndrive software);
3 - Open the map you have downloaded <by double clicking the .exe on your computer whilst activesync is connected> and then the installer will recognize your equipment. Ensure the \Storage Card option is selected and then click on the install button;
4 - Wait until the map is transfered to your equipment. After that you can disconnect the USB cable from your computer. Perform this steps to every map you have transfered.
5 - Click on navigation to start the NDrive software.
<added>
you will need to reenter your serial numbers
i authorised by sms.. you have to wait for it to authorise.. don't cancel or go back until it has finished (unless you've waited more than 5 minutes and you have to re register again due to sms saturation)

works really well btw.. well done ndrive..

I've complained at NDrive support regarding the below-standard installation and update procedures. During map installation it may happen that not all maps are copied to the card, then you have to find the temporary zip file and extract it yourself - very user-unfriendly. The Update Agent looks nice but you have to connect your phone to the PC when downloading the updates (very slow servers) and during installation (which may even be stuck at some point). Personally, I can't affort connecting my phone to the PC during several hours.

The reply I've got after insisting was that my message would be forwarded to the development team. We'll see ... :rolleyes:

Meanwhile I won't perform any updates, I'm very happy with NDrive as a navigational software. Hopefully, the rest will be fixed very soon ... ;)

Nope, reverted to older version.

I don't understand this company, they solved that on older version (when i bought my hd ndrive didnt work in landscape), launch a new version and have the same problem.
I'm glad a didn't pay the upgrade, the other day they send a email to upgrade, and i told them that V9 don't work in landscape, never got any answer.

Here's my 1 year experience with the NDrive package. While the software is great, there are a few significant drawbacks to the support features:

- the initial download / update service requires you to download all the language files, there is no possibility to customize ;
- the download speed is super ridiculous, thus it takes ages to download the updates - I have a decent broadband connection (4 Mbit) and 300megs is usually only a matter of minutes, in case of Ndrive it takes literally a few hours (i.e. for 300 megs), they should invest more into bandwidth. I've tried downloading at different times (night, afternoon, morning), that doesn't have any impact at all (even though their support states sth else, see here below) ;
- while downloading you absolutely HAVE to have your phone connected to the computer via active sync, you unplug it, the downloading immediately stops and you can start from scratch again (it does not remember what it's download before) ;
- there may be errors when installing the downloads, in that case, the installer will already have deleted the relevant downloaded file in the temp directory, great, you can now start from scratch again. I recommend downloading and backing up the downloads in another directory, unzip the whole thing and then manually install - that's more reliable.

BTW all the above of course applies to the very first download of the software and the maps (not to mention the time THOSE take to download). Last year in autumn, I sent a mail to NDrive Support telling them about all this, well here's the response:

Good afternoon, we are aware of the situation of the NDrive installer. We are doing our best efforts in order for it to be fully compatible with most of PDA equipments manufactured recently.
Due to the massive quantity of users updating their devices, there is a need to distribute our bandwith through all costumers in an equal way. In peak times, you might experience some slowdown regarding the updates. We are constantly doing our best to improve the speed and reliability of our NDrive Update Agent, so we advise you keep updating to the latest version.
Cumprimentos / Best Regards - NDrive Support

Nothing has improved in this area so far. So, if you plan on updating your maps and/or software regularly, I'd strongly advise against NDrive, unless you are living in Portugal where the software makes at least use of many extra-nice features (traffic, signs, etc.).

Overall, the software is really good and fast and the maps are of decent quality - luckily they use Teleatlas for Europe. But you can happily forget about ALL the rest, that is only if you've endured the initial download.

Wrong again! I have 8Mbit internet connection and it's fast

True, but you still can do other things on mobile!

You actually can't, there are selection boxes but they are grayed out. :cool:

They seem to serve Portuguese IP address users differently then I guess. Maybe other users here can share their experience. It's the kind of things you want to know before you buy a given product. I have absolutely no download speed concerns with most other downloadable contents, NDrive is pretty unique in their slowness, as far as I've experienced.

Now, I have to say that if I lived in Portugal, the whole package would be more attractive but given the fact that the price is the same for all, it looks as if the users outside of Portugal were co-financing the features available in Portugal...

I wonder, are the software updates (v9->v10) free or does Ndrive also require you to buy the payable map update at 35 EUR (e.g. Western Europe maps update price) ?

Last time I updated the software in Sep/Oct, the only way to get the update was that way, or have I missed a trick ? Ndrive releases a new software version approx. every 6 months, so you might easily pay 70 EUR each year (in case of WE maps) ...

They both have the same problem, don't work in landscape. I don't say its more complete, v10 its more complete, but less user friendly.
There was a update during the V9 updates that work in landscape, but after some updates never worked again.
