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

Hello. Install garmin on my galaxy s2 no root rom 4.1.2 without major problems.
Copy the garmin folder on the SD card, then install StreetPilot_216_no_root_sdcard.apk, create the folder Map and copy the maps from Mapear Project, then install StreetPilot_A80.apk to add spanish language.
Reset and then start the program.
But outside of what I read in the forum, from time to time, the program shuts itself and return to the main screen of the phone.
Anyone else have this problem???

Thanks and sorry for my bad english.

Same Problem. As you installed Mapear Project maps I understand you are from Argentina. Maybe the maps are the problem.....
Street Pilot is useless in my s2 with Jelly Bean 4.1.2 as it freezes and exists very often. Sometimes it works but when you recalculate route it exits.
Perhaps we need to wait until more stable version.

Yeah, I'm from Argentina.
When StreetPilot recalculates, freezes and exits.
When I look for a destination and want to see it on the map before starting the route, also freezes and exits.
Practically I can not use it, because it constantly freezes and exits.
First put maps from Project Mapear in the Map folder... StreetPilot freezes and exits.
Then delete the folder Map and replace the file gmapprom.img in the .System folder but also freezes and exits again.

Yes... when StreetPilot freeze and exits, is still running in background.
I should be rooting my galaxy s2 and retest the street pilot.

I will comment my test progress.

I just did a test:
When I look for a destination and want to see it on the map before starting the route, StreetPilot freezes and exits only when GPS is ON and signal is OK. If GPS is OFF or is ON but no signal, dont freeze.
Magic?
