How does GPS works in Omnia?
Hi there. I am new to GPS so need to ask some basic questions, Please help me.
My Omnia (I900) comes with a built-in GPS and has google maps installed as well.
Firstly I need to know that am I suppose to purchase the Garmin software even after having google maps on my phone. I have heard of some free softwares as well. Where can I get them from and how do they actually work.
Secondly, the google maps on my phone works only if I am connected to the internet, which means it's of no use if I am on the road with no internet connection.
Please guide me.
Well I guess google maps are working fine for me. But getting an internet connection is an issue now. Cuz if use Qtel's GPRS service, it will cost us a lot. Lemme knw if i can get these maps from u, wud really appreciate.
Thanks :)
yes you definately need the internet and the garmin works perfectly, if you got your phone from here the the maps should be preloaded. I have on omnia too but alsa i have no clue how to get the internet connected. the settings qtel sends are incorrect for the phone. If you know the manual settings could u send them to me thanks.
Ps I did manage to obtain the qatar maps from another garmin and loaded it on my phone but need the internet to make it work
