Just noticed that the first voice used for the start of navigation doesn't use TTS. It is as if it isn't ready yet and falls back to the American female prerecorded voice.
After setting off it's fine.

He doesn't know maybe because he's not ON the beta. Don't think we're meant to be giving out links.

If I select the map editors theme, the words for the Cities become corrupt. Only every other letter is shown, ie S e r e s for Sheerness.

A rendering issue is hardly a coincidence if it didn't happen before. Thankfully Waze aren't as dismissive of beta problems ;-)

Looks Swedish or Finnish. Definitely a Germanic language, but not as far South. Doesn't fix your problem though. But Waze have it here, so I'm sure they'll see it and hopefully fix it.

Yeah there are 2 Waze icons in the search results. Both clickable, normal buttons, there's just two of them.

Right after install it works few minutes and crash when i click on gas reports. Than after restart it work few minutes and then another crash, now it crash every time i start it. Even after full removal with cache cleaning removing of waze folder from sd, remowing waze data from data system directory etc. Waze crash after start right after gps search icon show on status bar.

I'm using an HTC Wildfire. This version is much more responsive and usable than any other Waze v3.X so congrats, I can finally use waze 3 instead of waze 2 !
Problems encountered :
  • Crash everytime I want to report something (as soon as I click the report button or if I drag it to the left or even if I answer yes to the "stuck in traffic ?" prompt)
  • Alternate routes are not displayed properly : the first route (#1) is a straight line from the start till the end. When I want to display only 1 route by clicking on its button, no route is displayed at all.
  • While driving, additional lines are displayed in purple (in addition to your route) : it looks like they are joining nearby junctions with a straight line.
  • GPS is rather stable but like for previous versions of waze, you need to shut down waze and start it up again to get the GPS back.
  • A few crashes when turning my phone (from portrait to landscape or vice-versa) but hard to tell exactly when : it only happened twice in a full week of test (and I use waze at least twice a day).
  • I'm in belgium and there are several official languages spoken here : french, dutch and german. The TTS only proposes dutch male & female. By the way, why don't you use the native TTS feature of android ? I have bought the SVOX TTS engine (for other apps) but it's not in use by Waze.
  • I went past 2 accidents and each time I wanted to say thanks to the reporter but the accident icon wasn't there anymore : is it because I didn't confirm it in time and waze removed the accidents ?
