Help Google Navigation on the Galaxy?

Today XDA Developers have released Google Navigation for G1 and MyTouch.

I installed it on my Galaxy, but it force closes on startup, maybe because the build*prop files are not customized for the Galaxy.

Has anyone managed to get it running?

UPDATE: posted the force close log and the /data/anr/trace to XDA developers (I'd post here too but the forum doesn't support attachments)

WARNING: installing the app bricked the phone part (phone can't get on the network). Not sure if this is because the installation overwrote /system/build.prop and /system/build.trout.prop

Can anyone please post their Galaxy .prop files?
 
You can copy build.props from other phones if you want, but you have to keep this bit:

#
# system.prop for capella7200
#
rild.libpath=/system/lib/libsec-ril.so
rild.libargs=-d /dev/ttyS0

Thats the com port and library to talk to your phone. The rest of the buil.prop stuff doesnt matter much, except to check your phone's model and version.
