Guest philly-d Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I thought I was having a severe case of deja-vu as I'm sure I have used this software before, but read some recent news items on the "recently released turn-by-turn navigation software".:) What it seems to be is Portuguese mobile network Optimus has done a deal with amAze to use their software, but it seems to be the same version that is available on the main site as I can't notice any differences, and the version number is still 4.5, although version 5.0 is being worked on. It actually works well on my device, other than the voice can be a bit quiet, but it's better than no voice at all! So take your pick, brush up on your Portuguese and download from dl.locationet.com/optimus or if you prefer English from amAze.

Guest nscxp2005 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 does this work on the Samsung Omnia i900? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest G1LIW Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Here's the main problem for a lot of folks - it's NOT an off-line package. It downloads maps over your data connection, and this WILL eat up your monthly bandwidth allocation. For most of us in the UK with our hideously restrictive data bandwidth allotments therefore, it's not a practical solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do i need to have an external GPS device or just need to install this software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest G1LIW Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i900_omnia-2422.php Your phone has built-in GPS with A-GPS support. You don't need an external unit. you can therefore load the software to your phone without having to get more hardware. You still have the problem of downloading the maps every time you want to use the package, of course, as you would with say, Google Maps, et al.

Guest philly-d Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 The nearest to a free solution I've found, that doesn't require a data connection is ZorroGPS (£18 for UK and Ireland) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darlene Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Nowadays privacy is an important thing. Every one has his or her little secret that he doesn’t want others to know. We can lock up our home, computer, or mobile. I can also lock up my ZorroGPS software. Otherwise, others may peep at my contact person, home address or recent destinations. My ZorroGPS can do more. It can automatically switch off the lock when I am near my home or company. Isn’t it marvelous? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
