Don't have to do anything unless the roads aren't marked. Roads with the dots are roads you get points for... other roads are just "there." From time to time, I've found roads I've already traveled get the dots for points again, but I honestly don't know the methodology for determining which roads give you points.

using the latest cellular south radio i had an issue where the GPS would need "primed" before waze would pick it up. the newest vzw radio works great & gps locks within about 5 seconds.
D^SH dont forget you can go to
& login & you will find you can add new roads & some other neat stuff from the interactive maps/dashboards. GL
D^SH dont forget you can go to
Code:
www.waze.comi dunno could be but even when i come to a stop it doesnt always load it... think im in rev a at all times and never drop to 1x.
i know that but the map will be there and than disappear... the roads were showing than when my car gets to where the top of the screen was it is gone..... the whole map is gone.... and my vehicle does move i dont have a map to move across though cause it dissapears about 20 seconds after starting to drive in any area.... im giving up on this app and calling it a failure in my books.
For those of you who have it working well, you can make custom icons. They're just .png files. I made one that's a cartoony overhead of my van.
D/\SH, I'm thinking it's probably the ROM you're running. Wasn't that the issue, earlier?
I'm on a boring ole' stock Sprint ROM, myself.

Hey Dash, when you get your Droid, try running it on there and then you can find out if has anything to do with location, data, and so forth. I ran this on my TP when it 1st came out and it ran w/o probs. Running it on Android has been spectacular, no problems at all. I think I mentioned this in the beginning of the thread and Roopull mentioned it again. This app is not what I use to find a location and get directions to. It can do that, but not with capabilities of other Navigation programs. However, it is a great program to communicate with your community on what the roads are looking like. If I know where I'm going, then I just run Waze and I can feel a little better about what I might run into on the way there 
I also, mentioned earlier in this thread how fast the communities are growing. I hoped on Waze from almost the beginning and I hardly saw any posts being relayed, but now it's all over the place and this program has not been out forever, but growing exponentially. Hey Roopull, with you being on the road all the time and no outlets, you can go pick up a portable charger. They run $50 or so and work great. Could be a good investment for yourself considering. I would, but that's just me

As a side note, before long, I'll be at the top of the user rankings.
Are you referring to the little chargers that run on AA batteries? If so, I have one, but only use it for emergencies.Hey Roopull, with you being on the road all the time and no outlets, you can go pick up a portable charger. They run $50 or so and work great.

Like I said above, Dash, just try it on your Droid and then see how it runs for ya.
Naw Roopull, I'm referring to a $50 portable charger. Slightly bigger, you can charge it with AC and then get two full charges or run your phone while connected to it. Best Buy actually gave me Best Buy money for purchasing my Plasma through them and I used that to purchase my charger there. It's $50-$70, in the cell phone section. You can get it at other electronic stores, like Fry's and so forth. Good Luck to both of you.

They do and it's not like I need mine all the time, but when you do... it's there for you. For Roopull, he would live off of them based off of GPS running and nothing to charge with, lol
