Guest galea Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I finally got my new HTC S740 from work and I see that i comes with a build in GPS reciver... What GPS Program can I use on it? What do you run? Tomtom ? version? Is there a program that can import digitally seamaps too? Wold be aswome in the boat :rolleyes: thnx for your time... The S740 is a non-touch screen (use to be called Smartphone edition) now called Standard. TomTom abandoned the non-touch screen so version 6 and 7 do not work right. Some folks run them using fakecursor and the like, I've not found it to be usable. TomTom5 works fine on this version of the device (although I do not have an S740 myself). Not sure how that's going to work with the internal GPS, version 5 is picky. MS Live Search works well on this device and includes turn by turn directions but requires a data plan. As does Google Maps. For off road stuff I use a program called RunGPS which works very well. It's meant for exercise but can be used for simple navigation stuff. Hope this gives you a start ...

Some other program that I can buy for that phone insted of tomtom? (gps program.) I will check out the rungpgs Route66 version 7 and Garmin Mobile XT 5.0 also work on the S740. Sygic McGuider should also work, as well as CoPilot Live 7, but I have not tested those last two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Confucious Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 For road use it does depend on where you are. In the UK I would certainly recommend CoPilot 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Wombleuk Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Memory map (Maptech) with Pocket navigator have marine maps available. I use their Ordnance Survey land maps on my S710 and they work fine; can't see any reason they wouldn't work on a 740. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
