Guest Chris LT250R Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Hey, im new to the site and these kinds of phones. If someone could help me out on what to do to get the full service gps out of my phone. Does it come straight out of the box rdy to use on the road with turn by turn instructions n voice? or is there something i can dl for free to use on my phone that will do that. Im not sure how to do any of this and i dont want it to mess up.
Guest su6oxone Posted March 23, 2008 Report Posted March 23, 2008 You should be able to use GPS with Garmin Mobile XT, Microsoft Live Search, and Google Maps. Refer to the "thelostsoul's thread of tips" and other threads for details. You have to use the "gps intermediate driver" for gps settings in those apps. Avoid using other apps that require COM port access for GPS (like CoPilot Live, TomTom, etc.). Hey, im new to the site and these kinds of phones.

Im looking for anything that will give me driving directions turn-by-turn with voice.. i thought the blackjack II came loaded with that application but the TELENAV that i have doesnt even give me the option to find my current position. I havent driven on the road with it yet so i havent tried telenav's driving directions yet but will they give me what im looking for? also this garmin program will it do all the GPS things i want? im not sure on how to install an application on the phone yet..
