I would love to get this to work on my phone.

When I first found the SP running on Android a few weeks ago I tried everything under the sun to make it work on my phone. Some of the SP apk did not start at all on my phone.
The ones I could get to work and would show a map, the map had to be on the internal storage of my phone. Nothing I did would work to show the maps for my external SD card.
My phone has such poor storage internally; this will only work for me on my external SD.

I decided to check to see if anything was new on the site and I see a new post #469 making it look easy to install. So I decided to try again and I still have no luck.

Here’s what I did:
Downloaded the Garmin folder in post #469. I placed this on my external SD.
Installed the SP application for /storage/external_sd/Garmin. Pretty sure that’s the path to my external SD. Looking at Total Commander behind SD-card (2) it says /storage/external_SD.

So I went ahead and tried starting SP. It boots up to where you need to set it up. It says “Select a Locale” with a blank box. Nothing to select and hitting the OK does nothing. Tried restarting the phone and starting SP again boots to the same place.

I do have a few questions. The beginning post about SP mentions about libgarminos.so and libgmtx.so. Are these files needed to make SP in post #469 work?

If so is the libgarminos.so file that goes in the /data/data/com.Garmin.Android.apps.gmobilext/lib/, is that to be the Internal or External SD?

Any thought on how to get this to work on my phone would be greatly appreciated.
If you use baghdvaio's install files you do not need to mess with libgarminos and libgmxt files. Seems like you used the wrong .apk to install SP. Check again as it could be something close. Or you could have copied his Garmin folder incorrectly. Make sure you have on the root of your sd card only one Garmin folder containing: /.system, /Garmin, /GPX, ... and not /Garmin/Garmin/containing:/.system, /Garmin, /GPX, ..
