Hello everybody!
I am new on this forum and i need a big and important help with my i780. I did download the GARMIN gps from the currently website, but unfortunatly seems not work on my device.
Please if someone who could have a pation to teach me step by step where to download and how to install a GPS on my mobile, can be GARMIN or TOM TOM i would be so gateful for the pation.
I am from sweden, and u can send to my mail on [email protected]
Kind of regards

you need to get the modaco smartphone gps activator software. www.modaco.com (i can't browse there atm so i cant give you the exact link).
btw, i found the samsung i-780 gps to be really poor. it takes ages to sync and give you the location. ebay that thing and get yourself a htc hd

Hi all,
I'm just hoping some you who are more familar with the trinity can give me a few pointers... to save me time and less confusion, thanks in advance and much appreciated.
I'm currently using the Australian version of Windows Mobile 6 on my trinity...
but i'm NOT sure how to get GPS running (if it's is possible), please tell how to set it up and what software etc, i require. (I'll be using the GPS in Australia)
and also in terms of syncing... after updating my trinity from mobile 5 to 6, do i need a new version of active Sync, because i'm having trouble sync now...
Thank you all~~~ I'm hoping there are nice and helpfully people around

I think you meant to write "but i'm NOT sure how to get GPS running".
If so, you do not need to install any software. GPS works. But without a software program that actually uses GPS, GPS itself is quite useless. So install TomTom 6 (if you don't have it let me know, I'll post it), follow the instructions and your GPS will work. Headsup, first fix will take some minutes, so be patient.
and also in terms of syncing... after updating my trinity from mobile 5 to 6, do i need a new version of active Sync, because i'm having trouble sync now...

You need ActiveSync 4.5.

http://www.tomtom.com is the place to create an account and download a paid map, but you can use Route 66 too.
Let we start with Google Maps, that's free of charge and easy setup. I've attached the file.
ActiveSync (XP or earlier) is available at Microsoft, http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx
Windows Mobile Device Center (Vista) at http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx

You can download Tomtom 6.03 from rapidshare:
http://rapidshare.com/files/47514040/1.bin
http://rapidshare.com/files/47519726/1.b01
http://rapidshare.com/files/47523589/1.b02
Just rename the files:
1.bin > 1.zip
1.b01 > 1.z01
1.b02 > 1.z02
Upzip the file and copy the content from the zipfile to the root of your SD. Use File Explorer to navigate to the root of your SD card and tap on Start.exe from and TT will install itself.
Arilexed: Thanks for your Tomtom 6 links, much appreciated once again...
For those familiar with google maps and gps settings.... when i use google maps on my trinity it keeps saying seeking GPs satellites (0)... but it never finds anything....
is there something i need to do with the setting??
How about tomtom 6 do i need to change the gps setting in order to make it work?
I'm hoping someone can help me out~~~
Thanks in advance~
Doesn't GoogleMaps require you to have a constant internet connection to be able to use?
yes, i believe you are right prawnz....
piitaa, ensure you are outside, away from tall buildings and built-up areas. a first-time lock can often take 10-15 minutes to obtain.

no problem, glad to be of service. could you confirm if the download and installation has worked for you?
Hi dos anyone have this problem? I've tried installing WM6 official OZ ROM but finds that the in build memory is smaller. and since TomTom needs to be installed in the phone inbuild memory I have only small amount left to install other stuff. Plus how come there is no office in the official ROM.
hello, don't have the answer to your question but I think you would have more chance in getting a answer if you started a new thread for this. just a thought...
TomTom - making more room
Hi - you can just move the folder "Navigator" from the program files out to the Storage Card - just correct any shortcuts to point to the new location. It works fine and frees up that much space on the device...
Hi Guys,
I am planning to buy HTC P3300 today. I had certain questions for the same and wanted to know if any one of you could help me out.
Please help me understand:
Does using the HTC GPS also use the GPRS connection even if I have relevant maps loaded
Can I install TouchFlo from the HTC Touch phone in HTC P3300 to get the same functionality
If Yes where can I get the same (TouchFlo)

1) No
2) Yes. You will find it if you do a search on the forums.
I agree with glam's answers, but if you use Tomtom for navigation and if you want to use the optional extras like Tomtom Traffic, you need GPRS connection to download the infos. But this is entirely optional, I myself dont use it.

If u r 4m India.. They have Mapking 12 as default GPS software.. u have preloaded maps, 1 map is free, & u gotta pay 4 d rest u wanna buy..
All infos & traffics are on server which means, using GPS without GPRS in such case is like using google maps where u can simply locate urself.. No directions routes, no traffics, no shop infos..
Choice is urs..
HI guys..Im new to my phone and this forum..I hope you guys can help me to find a GPS software for my phone(even the install instruction) =P..i heard that Tomtom 6 or 7 is a pretty good one for US region..but ive tried to find it for a long time but i just cant find it..by the way i have a Holux gps receiver (is that what it called?)..I would be very appreciated if you guys can help me out on this..thanks
P.S: my phone is HTC(softbank) X01HT, i think its same as Dopod 838 pro.
garmin
You can download Garmin Mobile XT from the Garmin website. (you need I think the garmin support files and basemap)
Then with their mapsource software, you can upload your maps from windows to the phone.
GPS
um..actually i am looking for free download..if you have it..
Then you went to the wrong forum...

Hi Everyone
At first I have to say that my English isn't the best but I hope you can understand me
I'am looking for a way to use a Tomtom GO (All In One Navigation) (in my case TT GO 500)
as a GPS-Receiver to feed my HTC Phone (in my case Wizard), to run another GPS-Software on it Garmin, another Version of Tomtom oder GPSgate.
I've allready searched the Forum but I couldn't find any Thread that matches (It's allways an DataConnection it download Maps to Tomtom Go or to run Tomtom on WM with other third Party Receivers).
So if anyone has a good Idea, please share it with me (us)

No. That is not how this forum works. When you come here, don't talk about getting served in days. First, read the forums for a few weeks, get to know the forum, the people and the content. Then it's reasonable to start asking questions.
Many people before you have asked this question - all are welcome here, but not on those terms.
mapking or garmin xt?
hi i would like the best for my xperia. so which do you guyz recommend for my xperia? mapking 2007 or garmin xt?
TomTom is the best GPS software for X1 it`s faultless! aslong as the maps are available for your counrty
but tomtom maps are specified for certain countries, for a person who travels alot i recommend garmin xt - even though it's a bit complicated when it comes to map making, but it's reliable
