Wow! Download 'Nokia Drive' now for HTC 8X.

[TruPlaya187]

Downloaded for my 8x, tested it out the other day! Its fantastic! Luckily I never drive so I wasnt missing my google navigation that much, but I really thin Nokia Drive is better, a lot more accurate and even tells you wheres gas stations and what the speed limit is...

Does anyone know how to install the voice turn by turn though?

Open the app, press the settings (3 . & 3 ---) after settings, navigation voice, download new, check for English street names announced, then select it.

It's not available on Mexico yet. I just hope they don't take long to release it in other countries.
It would be great to have it on my 8X.

How does the phone verify that you are in the UK, US or Canada?
-GPS?
-Service provider?
-Phone settings?

Any way to get around this and get the app to work in other countries?

It checks the country code of your SIM card. I managed to install and use it by changing the region setting and using my English SIM card, but it won't start when I use my German SIM.

Is there any way to get see a list of the directions for my trip? I used it the other day for directions and couldn't figure out how to see a list of the directions for my trip. That's pretty basic functionality, I"m surprised this doesn't have it, so maybe I just don't know how to find it.

Can finally stop trying to use that VZW nav abomination.

That would be the country-code assigned to your Microsoft account. You specify the country during your WP device's initial setup, and isn't easy to change afterwards (impossible without going through Microsoft support).
