Yahoo Go

ok i just installed yahoo go on my herm 8525, how do i use the GPS as in could someone help me on telling me what ports to use, i searched google but i Couldn't find anything on it or about it so could you guys please help?????

Unfortunately my friend there is no internal GPS (working) inside hermes model handsets... You must buy external Bluetooth GPS and the BT set-up will assign a com port to the external GPS which can then be used by any program on the device.

Gps + Google Maps ?

Hi Guys,
I am using Artemis and looking for a GPS program that can be used with Google maps.
So that I can download maps from Google earth and load in to the program, some thing like that.
Thanks,

google maps for ppc works fine! streaming the maps through gprs now (infinite gprs abbo). But could always prestream through usb conn?

Thanks

Maps, Navigator

Hi, I'm looking for a google maps style program which I can actually download a map pack for to use to navigate to places... I don't have gps and I don't want to use the internet, I just want to do a search for a street address.
I live in Australia and was wondering if anyone knew a good program which would suite me?
Thanks heaps

You could always install tomtom with aussie maps as you can browse the maps even if there is no gps signal...
Any reason why you don't wanna use the net? I find its one of the main features of the phone...

well, I do use the net on the phone for some things... but I really just want to store the maps so I don't have to download each time like with google maps.
How do I go about getting tomtom? I think I did actually have tomtom on the phone when I first got it, but it wouldn't start without a gps plugged in.
The maps cost money don't they?
Is there a free alternative at all?

I have the Garmin 10x bluetooth GPS reciever that came with maps, and even does voice tun by turn. I use it when driving. It was 120.00USD, but I believe that you can get oz maps too.

thanks heaps mate, works perfectly

Cheers mate... You could always buy a keyfob sized gps for $60-100 to get that fully functional...

tom tom and google maps

I've tried using the search but it comes up with nothing when i type google maps and tom tom unless there is something wrong with my browser.
anyway.
i wanted to know if i had google maps on my hd could i store all the info on the sd card and have it run off that and not use my data pack on my plan?
if not what about with the tomtom software can i do it with that?
pretty much i want the gps to work like a navman would or a tom tom or something that doesnt download anything everytime its being used...
and i can always update the maps when more updates come out?
cheers

yeah it's possible with both google map & tomtom.

no info on how this is done or where to get the applications?
