Thread: Install Garmin Street Pilot v.2.16 Samsung Galaxy Android 4.1.2 Detailed Instructions&Pics

Thank you .... it works now.
many thanks catymag.

I have a problem. i wonder if anyone can help.
Originally, I loaded StreetPilot onto my Samsung Galaxy S2 following the instructions in the first twp posts and it worked.
I used 2.16 no root sdcard.apk since my phone is not rooted.

Then I decided to try to load SP onto an external SD card using 2.16 extSdCard no root add language.apk and that worked.
The SD card that I used was not the one in my phone (which was pretty much full) but a blank freshly formatted one.

So far so good. But then I decided that I wanted SP back on my phone's memory (internal SD card if you like).
So I overwrote 2.16 extSdCard no root add language.apk with 2.16 no root sdcard.apk.
When I started SP everything was there including maps, but SP asked me for a 'locale', which sort of suggested that it didn't know where I was.
I chose United Kingdom and then when I went to view the map I was located in London and it couldn't get a satellite fix to put me where I actually am in Doncaster in Yorkshire, England.
Acquiring satellites folllowed by failure to locate my position.

So I put the fresh external SD card back in and reloaded 2.16 extSdCard no root add language.apk to overwrite 2.16 no root sdcard.apk thinking that what once worked would do so again, but I got the same no satellie fix scenario.

So I erased everything and started from scratch using original Garmin folder and maps and .apks, both on the phone and on the external SD card, still I get the GPS not getting a fix (even though it is switched on at my phone).

It is almost like, I only had ONE chance to get it right per card and that there is something then embedded on my device that prevents reloading of SP on my device.
What is it that is stopping the GPS part working?
