i don't think anyone could answer this question except me  , you need :
- Navigon.2.5.1.NoActiv.Androappz.apk
- Navigon folder (cracked)
- ME_2010_Q2_3.rar (middle east map)

links:
- Nvigon software+ its folder
- Map

instructions:
- Unrar Map and copy files to \Navigon\map\ME_2Q2010\*.*
- Download the precracked apk and install it

the problem is that i can't confirm if its working or not cause i don't have a symbia phone but you can google for Garmin on symbian + lebanon map you'll find so many links but for the android none :)

@kassem, yes there is a solution, a friend of mine told me about today and he gave me the needed software and it works like a charm on his N97 mini, I have an N97 mini too. I will install everything and try it first, then I will reply to this thread or open a new one with instructions as soon as possible. Have a good day :)

And me 

AndNav2 from http://www.andnav.org/. This is a FREE open source solution where all you to do is just register ur email to use it.
You need to make your own map tiles using a free tool called OSMMapTilePackager http://wiki.andnav.org/index.php/OSMMapTilePackager

I can confirm that this solution will work with Android1.6 Vanilla UI (stock) as i use it every year on my holidays in lebanon using my HTC Dream (My last use of it was last year). I haven't tested this with the SE xperia x10.

Why the hell Lebanon is not appearing in list?!
All countries (Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates) are appearing and working.
All the countries have map files like COUNTRY_ENG.map except for Lebanon, it is Lebanon_FRE.map
I'm on Andoid 2.1 but I don't think this is the issue.

Re: Offline Android GPS application?

Same story here, i can find POI that are in lebanon, i can read area names in Lebanon when i click on Show On Map, but Lebanon is not in the country list, nor can i search city names in lebanon.

This sucks, did any of you guys find a solution?

Re: Offline Android GPS application?

Navigon is a good offline GPS app for Android. However, they still haven't released a version compatible with Gingerbread. So in case you have upgraded from Froyo2.2 to Gingerbread2.3 (or considering it), just keep in mind that you wouldn't be able to use Navigon YET!

I'm using Locus Free. You can download directly from your phone many kinds of map from free providers. The whole detailed map of Lebanon is approximately 1 Gb big. But you can also download the area you need only.

Re: Offline Android GPS application?

Hey all, finally got a solution for j2me users (may work on android). Use MarioAdvisor, it can open any opentype garmin IMG map...
But it lacks some features such as routing, it also need alot of memory...

Re: Offline Android GPS application?

I guess its 2010 because it does have mistakes. But it's still worth having, I tested it for a couple of places, and it was good enough.

Re: Offline Android GPS application?

sure, here is the website where you can download the modded Google maps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthr … ?t=1007132

Follow all the instructions, then when you have the app installed, enter the app, go into options, brut mod, save maps to cache and read maps from cache.

Hope this helps.
