Someone should kindly answer this question for me.

i get to see peeps buying cars with navigation system, to the best of my knowledge, such stuffs don't work in nigeria, (i stand to be corrected),

Even car dealers brag with the gadget, in some cases, a car with navigation system costs more,

i need to know if the navigation system works in nigeria.

me self tire ooh ! it doesnt work in Nigeria,it is just an effizzy stuff.

We have a detachable navigation system with all lagos streets and some prominent businesses as well as Abuja and PH fully functional with voice direction, DVD functionality, mp3 storage and playback etc
Available at 27 Opebi road ikeja

Things are not that backward in Nigeria guys.
Your Nokia phones or Android and Apple phones all have maps.
I use mine a lot to get to places I do not know
and I have not had issues yet.
Very reliable.

sorwwwy, my bad. I meant the google map navigation on my Desire HD android phone works in Nigeria on few Major roads and streets . The topic should have been does in-built car Navigation system work in Nigeria?

Navigation systems work in certain areas in Lagos and Abuja. We have GPS sats in these regions that are fully functional, only issue is that it's footprint is not really extensive in Nigeria.

YES; Inbuilt car navigational System works in Nigeria. Most of the car's with this inbuilt navigations are either from America or Europe and have American / European maps installed in them. Thats why it seems they dont work in nigeria. You have to first buy a nigerian map for that particular car and load into the navigator before it works in Nigeria

Heck it does. Well maybe not the in-built car stuff. But that on my nokia phones does work perfectly even in some remote parts of the country. All I just have ta do is to jettison the in-built one and have my phone connected via tv-out to an in-dash installed monitor and I'm good to go. I can listen to my musics, watch pre-loaded movies and receive my calls via hands-free and have the audio routed via the car speakers. I even play games and browse the web with it using bluetooth mini keypads. Virtually everything you do on that phone is brought into your car. Only that I had to fix the sim card permanent into the car as a car as my car number.

And remember, Nokia maps are currently about the best for Nigeria and most of Africa. Cheers.

My blackberry map works well when I start gps navigation. I have used it well in abuja and ph. It vehicle navigation has gps, I don't kw why it shouldn't work

I think what Ighadavid said my explain the reason why. But what I think is that most GPS devices for offline navigation only works in an area if the map of such area is already pre-loaded in the device. And example is Nokia maps which requires you download African maps and voice guidance on the map application if you would like to do offline navigation. If it will not be preloaded, the alternative is ONLINE navigation which means the device has to be connected to the internet throughout the period of navigation so that the map data and voice guidance would continuously be streamed to your device while navigating. Now that isn't cost effective, is it?

Concerning those installed in cars, most of them are for offline navigation which means Nigerian map has to be pre-loaded on it for it to work in Nigeria, otherwise, it'll be useless.

i need a navigation system with dvd, bluetooth for phone conectivity and av input for rear view camera. If u have, contact me on 08035403666 or chyndorek@yahoo.com

Navigation system on nokia will show you even the service lanes on ikorodu road. It covers the remotest part of nigeria and you can search for place of interest - shops, fuel stations, hotels etc. I think same applies to garmin gps

However, is there nigeria dvd for factory fitted car navigation?

Car GPS Navigator system for Nigeria

Navigation systems does work in Nigeria. My company Third Dimension Technologies pioneered this since 2008 and we are still on top. Visit:

But the OP was actually asking about factory fitted navigation systems that comes with the vehicles. These are the ones you need a CD/DVD with the maps to run. Unfortunately, the car manufacturers do not make such DVD/CD with Nigeria maps. What people do is to remove the factory fitted device and pop in generic Chinese devices which uses SD cards and runs on Windows CE 5.0 or 6.0. These ones work with our maps and we had been able to fix some out there in the market.

where can one buy a "nigerian map" for a factory fitted navigation on a toyota camry 2009?

Maybe make some inquiries in Lagos especially but the good news is that the inbuilt car navigation systems do work in Nigeria. Mine is Honda Civic. u are to be load with nigerian map installation DVD. 2010 models upward discs can be used to update older models. voila: nigerian map will calibrate in the process. im reliably informed too that network providers help to make such discs available
