Interface in my PhilZ rooted Galaxy S2 stock rom is perfect. Satellites fix works, some glitches.
Navigation is ok, simulation works fine.
Best condition to have it working fine is: rooted phone and install to sdcard. Other solutions can give problems with autorotation, battery and sat.signal icons.
Warning: Maps compiled by CGPSMapper compiler often crash when calculating a route or recalculating a route, Garmin City Navigators work fine. A workaround here:

Solution:Volume must be managed by phone volume settings after starting SP.

download gmaptz.img and put it in the.System folder of Garmin

All other settings will be retained after you fix satellites and Street Pilot gets the position.
GPS ON drains a lot of battery so, when you close SP close GPS too by hitting the backbutton and selecting "OK". Don't exit using your "Home" button.


Step by step instructions and files.

Spoiler: instructions

I removed from original Sosaw's pack China map and I added some needed files I could download with Webupdater copying, in a Garmin folder, in a pendrive ,StreetPilot GarminDevice.xml file-

To test it I installed it to sdcard , but you can use other libgarminos+ related apk to install Garmin in other locations.

First download Garmin folder(Complete Package) and copy in your phone sdcard (internal memory)

For bigger resolution, like me on Galaxy Note (1280x800), you can use the libgarminos.so from v2.14 and it will give you large font and better view.
Cheers!

from a BlackWolf post in another thread :for people who do not want to root their Android devices, my idea is to repack original StreetPilot .apk files and adding patched libgarminos.so and libgmxt.so, which would replace the original .so files - libgarminos.so, libgmxt.so , which are inside .apk, so in that way patched files will be added to the places where they need to be added, and the installation would then be ok too for no-rooted devices

If your phone does not replace the libgarminos file at reboot, you can use any apk and place the modified libgarminos in the correct path. But if your phone does not work that way and if replacing the file on every reboot is too much of a hassle, you have two further options

1) Use a blank apk, ie an apk whcih does not have the libgarminos lib file included. Then you just need to place the modified libgarminos file in the correct path and nothing gets overwritten on reboot.
2) Or you can decompile the apk, and make the necessary changes in the libgarminos file and recompile it with the modified file.

JCV test
Galaxy S2 rooted ,SP posted in starting post +languages +CNEU NTU 2013.41+Nuvi 40/50 NTU D3589070A.JCV

I tested JCV just in simulation and it works, I disabled highway mode.
When testing check please for the right path and for the right file: JCV version must be the same of CN version (2013.41 NTU .img+jcv 2013.41 NTU version).
Some maps will show jcv with copyright warning (Thai map).
Path is Phone/Garmin/.System/JCV/DXXXXXA.jcv
I used Nuvi 40/50 NTU JCV ,not so great as resolution but it works fine in portrait as split screen and in landscape as full screen, 34xx high res. NTU JCV shows a blank window instead, better resolution ,but it shows correctly just when you tap upper blue bar and select the junction you want to see, but it doesnt show in navigation.

Using NT map you can try series 1xxx jcv and give us feedback

Working on Samsung Galaxy s3 mini GT-I8190 non-rooted Jelly Bean 4.1.2

I installed it this way

I think it's always better to understand what we're doing, so read how to, instead of being spoon feeded
