Have anybody tried porting Here maps on Android. I was searching for good offline navigation for Android in India however no maps could match the ease and places shown in Here maps :banghead::banghead:. Any good suggestion on maps in Android is also fine however it needs to be offline and should store whole India map.

Thanks.

theres even navfree but its not as good as here maps or even google maps as such but the offline maps works excellent and is great for a rough idea and turn by turn navigation

Looks like a worthy alternative to Here maps of Windows Phone.

Sorry was not active much since I posted.

I will definitely try this. Also, sometime back I read a news about Here map coming on Android, does anyone have any idea on it?
