How to Install Navitel

[arvin555]

Visit the Official Navitel Websites:

http://www.navitel.asia/download.html


Download the appropriate file depending on your smart phone OS.
(Note that iOS and Bada users need to download using their "appstore")

*Please use Navitel Ver. 3.0+++ instead of 5.0+++ there are still some very small issues with ver. 5.0 though tolerable. Anyway you can upgrade for free once maps are compatible.

http://www.navitel.su/en/downloads/
This one has the latest versions and even bada and iOS downloads


Download user's guide while you are at it. Follow the user's guide on how to install on your particular OS.

After installation, you are asked if you want to activate or buy a key, you can already buy a key from there. Or alternatively visit these sites to purchase online the key. Note that there are different sites and different currencies.

Yes I think so, heck the license is even good for other Navitel for a different OS as long as you haven't used it.

Eccm, May we know how much you paid for it?
As mentioned navitel.md which is also english website offers $28 without any map, it might be the cheapest one?

i can confirm that your license can be used for both version 3.5 and version 5. i have just changed version today and the version 5 was automatically was activated.
provided that you have the same device as the license is device-specific and not version-specific.

also this site says the same.

http://www.navitel.md/en-navitel-price.html For PDA and smartphones (with OS Windows Mobile, Android, Symbian, Bada).
Same license key unlocks any of these versions.

Note: 1 license will work on one PDA/smartphone only.

I just made an order from this site http://navitel.asia/store/index.php?...tegory&path=20 and its £19.42. I will keep you posted.

[arvin555]

Sorry to say this eccm but I think that it is cheaper to go with the navitel.mb site which offered $28.00 specially cause US$ is way cheaper nowadays.
Other would be buyers, please take note!

Also I am surprised that you guys sometimes report russian only sites and also that when you install navitel it is in russian.

1. Most of the Navitel sites, even the main russian sites, have an english website version, just look for it, usually the URL is wit EN. Anyway the links for english websites were posted above.

2. When you first install navitel, it is in Russian as default, but the very first screen that you get is the language setting, just tape on the drop down menu and choose english! If you make a mistake an accidentally start navitel in russian, you can still change, by going to menu icon, settings (gear icon), Regional settings Map with Red gear icon, and then click on the flags icon and you should be able to change.

on the website that eccm used, you can also change the currency to dollars (including rupiah and euro).

price is currently $27.93.

[arvin555]

Cool! Thanks for the info Kuya Pokz.

Not sure if their rates fluctuate according to market rate but might be a good idea to check in the navitel.asia site first as per eccm's purchase, vs. the navitel.mb one that is fixed at $28.

Anyone out there who has successful bought online a navitel license key? Went through the steps for checkout forNavitel for Symbian v3.5.0.1105 USD 27.93 at the navitel.asia site:

http://navitel.asia/store/index.php?...ontact/success

As you checkout there is no other option but COD.There is even a flat rate of USD 3.21 for the delivery(key and program?)! Would be a big help if someone can suggest another online site they tried?

[arvin555]

I'm having problem installing version 3.5 on my galaxy s2, it unable to run the apps, any galaxy s2 user here?

Posted by Japp on the map download page.

Japp please post more info, what problems were you encountering?
Where did you download the software form?

Your Galaxy SII is actually using BADA OS if I understand, if so you need to download from your samsung appstore it should be free to try, though you need to unlock/key to load the RG map.

A friend of mine who has a Galaxy S working on Bada was able to do what I described above, but he hasn't ordered a key yet, so he can't load RG map yet.

As you checkout there is no other option but COD.There is even a flat rate of USD 3.21 for the delivery(key and program?)! Would be a big help if someone can suggest another online site they tried?

Registrar, please wait for a reply here, there are a few that purchased from that site but no report yet.

Thanks arvin555 for your reply.

Downloaded the 3.5 version at navitel.md/download.html (android version) and successfully installed it. But when I am trying to run the application, it can't load and hanging up or force closed.

The OS of my Samsung Galaxy S2 is Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread not bada. Anyway I'll just try to download it via android market. I guess I have no other option but to buy the license key then which cost almost $30.

[arvin555]

Japp,

Thansk for the clarification, it means then that I was mistaken about my friend's unit, I am sure he's is bada so probably different Galaxy.

Yeah, here is the thing, if you download from android market you most probably will be given a ver. 5.xx which is not the best version for our map but usable (I myself am using ver 5 for my symbian).

Yes there is no other way around it but to purchase a key, if you want to use RG map. Heck even if you don't use RG map you only get demo maps in other countries and only for 30 days, everyone and all the OSs are in the same boat.

Update on navitel.asia. For those members who are interested in getting a Navitel Navigator license key navitel.asia offers a way to pay online instead of COD. If you have a paypal account then log in directly at paypal.com and pay admin@navitel.asia the required amount as indicated in the navitel.asia website less the delivery fee(I paid USD 27.93 for Navitel for Symbian v3.5.0.1105). Forward paypal email confirmation to:

Akwang
Navitel.Asia
info@navitel.asia

Akwang will email you shortly with the license key.

[arvin555]

Thanks for the update, this is really helpful.

So paypal.com confirmed!!

Direct credit card transaction, not yet confirmed.

COD: Are they crazy?
