Offline mode issue
-
I know that I must be doing something wrong, but I cannot get the offline mode to work properly. I do have the most current maps downloaded for the areas where I'll be traveling, and I have Offline Navigation enabled. I also have my routes synched to my device (DMD T865X).
If I disconnect from the Internet I can see the map and route using the HERE map, but the resolution is very poor when I zoom in. Obviously the other maps don't work. If I establish my Internet connection and turn off Offline Navigation everything works properly, however the HERE map resolution is still very poor when zoomed in. All of the other maps appear just fine as long as I have an Internet connection and Offline Navigation disabled.
I'm starting a 3 week trip tomorrow and this is the first time that I've tried offline navigation and I'm concerned about what's going to happen when I lose cell coverage.
Thanks for your help!

@Steve-Jarrell you are looking only at the front layout, and that requires internet.
After going offline, go to your Routes, select the route and hit Navigate !
Only then it will be opened in the Here offline maps from the phone !
You cannot navigate using OSM or TomTom maps!
I wish that they were replaced by Here (the offline maps downloaded into the phone !) -
@Steve-Jarrell In doing a little more testing it seems like the problem is the latest version of the offline version of the maps that I just downloaded for my regions are very low quality when zoomed in. I'm using the United States maps for North Carolina, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine and Massachusetts. If someone could confirm this I would appreciate it!

Thanks! I was just opening the route and not selecting navigate!
