Did you try on ExtSDCard also?
My is rooted too, have Ditto ROM. Thx in advance

I tried extSdCard, but could not make it to work. So, i moved IGO navigation to extsdcard, and installed Streetpilot to internal sd. I used ORAK's apk, post #113, now I see he managed to answer to you before me, cool guy
Thanks ORAK.

I took the phone out for testing on real navigation, guidance, etc. Maps installed are CityNavigator Europe NT Unicode 2015.10, almost 3.6GB.
The program takes on destination easy , works with phone gps and blutooth GPS (garmin GLO), but performance is very VERY laggy. Stuttering when showing movment on the street, and (my God) re-routing is taking sooooooo Loooooooong, sometimes a few shorter streets are longtime over until a new re-route is calculated and shown, possibly even this one is not appropriate anymore.
After this I switched to a much smaller map ROAD2008 - Romania only - and performance was OK.
Is this because the hardware is not up to the app or are there some tweaks for better performance?

Yeeeess, veeery ssslllooooooooooooooooww

Everyone who is having "black screen/freeze on first start-up" (ex: Samsung S4 Stock 4.4.2 with no root) it is because on Google 4.4.0 and up the apps do not have permission to create files on SDcard
That is why you need to make an .apk with default directory: /storage/extSdCard/Android/data/com.garmin.android.apps.gmobilext/files/Garmin
Step 1 install .apk [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] thanks to rf711 from 4pda for creating the .apk by my request
Step 2 after 1st start up, copy the Garmin folder to /storage/extSdCard/Android/data/com.garmin.android.apps.gmobilext/files/
Step 3 enjoy StreetPilot on Samsung S4 with no root
Good luck and enjoy!


Thanks, added in starting post

İt works on My Note3 4.4.2 stock rom [noroot]

Guys, anyone have an idea as to why maps keep crashing out street pilot on my phone and same maps work on my wife's phone? My phone is an S4 with tw4.4.2 Custom ROM and wife's phone is a S5 with stock 4.4.2

Hello Crog1959,
maps did crash my phone too a few times, and then I wiped clean Dalvik and Cache in recovery and they worked afterward. You could give this a try. Cheers.
