    Is there a way to run google maps throught the entune screen, as the navigation program is very bad? Thanks.

    I'm just curious, what does Google maps do that your factory navigation doesn't do?

    Take a good route, can pull up any address, use GPS coordinates if you want. I hate the factory navigation, even in town it takes shitty routes. I pull maps up on my phone and let my phone rest on the little 'edge' of the radio.

    There is a few threads on mirroring cellphone, but not sure how google maps pulls up on it. Wish Entune had a Google Maps App and DI.FM App. I use both of those majority of the time.

    Just run Google Maps on your phone and use Bluetooth. You can't listen to radio, though

    DI.FM is still around?
    I used to listen to it all the time when they still had a hard trance station that actually played some kick ass hard trance.
    Now days its too much UK style hard trance.

    Wonder if they have a classic hard trance station with all the old stuff

    ya they used to have a hard trance station back around 2010 or so with all the german style hard trance. All Uberdruck Records, Druck Records, Tracid Traxxx, Fe Records etc.
    All the good old hard stuff. Then they stopped playing a lot of it. Wonder if that classics statio nwould play it more

    I have a LG G5 phone and with it I can open Pandora, get music started, open Google Maps, set destination, and Pandora will play and when google maps gives direction it overtakes the sound, when direction is done, music is back.
