Each GPS software has it's own positive & negative points.
That's why most of us prefer to have both.

Now PAPAGO! X5 is available for Windows Mobile, we've decided to give it a try since the map & 3D view is much much better [from what I've heard lah] than any other GPS software.

There are just too many GPS software in the market.

Garmin Mobile XT
Mapking
PAPAGO!
iGO8
TOMTOM NAVIGATOR

& a few others....... I think.

Woohoo!!! Yay!
After 5 times of trial & error, I've managed to Install PAPAGO! X5 without any errors.

This is how I do it:

1. Copied everything in the PAPAGO! X5 installer into the main hard disk, example: C:\. I didn't create any special folder at all, just paste everything directly in C:\
2. Then I opened my MicroSD [MicroSD directory is H:\], create a folder named "MagaNavi", then open that folder & create another folder named as "Maps".
3. Then I run the MapInstaller from my main hard disk which in this case is C:\.
4. Wait until the installation is finished without any errors at all.

What I can say about PAPAGO! X5 is, it's FREAKING PERFECT! The user interface is even better than Garmin Mobile XT, the Maps are clean, & map drawing is very fast! Not like Garmin Mobile XT which is uber slow!

Now, to download the latest map from http://malfreemaps.com/.

PS: legend1108, RM50 for Garmin Mobile XT is ridiculous, that's pirated. The original software will cost you much much more than that.

chin, I'm browsing through MalFreeMaps right now, but I only see "MFM-Papago Custom 100106 (for Papago Z880 & R58x0, Holux 62-series, Wayway, Altina & X5 for Android)" & "MFM-Papago Standard 100106 (for Papago X3 for Windows Mobile & HTC X3)".

Which one is for our PAPAGO! X5?

Because none of those states that they are maps for PAPAGO! X5 for Windows Mobile.

Thanks.
Though I have just posted a question in the Free MFM-Papago X2/X3/X5 100106 map topic. Lets wait for antyone [The MalFreeMaps Site Admin] to answer our question.

X3 doesn't have english version.
Except for those that came together with some HTC devices lah.

Offcourse ler, Android is owned by Google also.

What the heck did you just type? I don't understand a thing.

Anyway, just to solve your curiosity, Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 is not build by Sony Ericsson. Xperia X1 original manufacturer / designer is HTC. Sony Ericsson only does rebranding. Like Naza bought the design of Peugeot 206 & rebrand it as Naza 206 Bestari.

Only Xperia X2 & Xperia X10 is the original product by Sony Ericsson.

chin, do you have any problem using MFM PAPAGO! X3 maps on your PAPAGO! X5?
Because if you do, please state it now as I'm about to reply antyong's post.

This way, we can let him know about the bugs of using Windows Mobile X3 Maps on Windows Mobile X5.

PS: He also told me to use Windows Mobile X3 maps on Windows Mobile X5.

Valkyrie v5.6 RapidShare & MegaUpload Links

agent_47 told Valkyrie FireStormLEO 28206 users to be cautios. This is what he said: "Contact icon on incoming screen don work."

I think he meant contact picture on incoming calls doesn't work.

It's important to me.
90% of my contacts has pictures on their contact.

Flashing to Valkyrie FireStormLEO v5.6 23518 now.

Yeah, can't seem to change the HTC Sense background theme to none wallpaper.
But then, I prefer this way.

At least the homescreen look more lively than ever.

None yet.
Just finished running Garmin Mobile XT, Mapking 2007 & PAPAGO! X5.

PAPAGO! X5 installation is very complicated.

Had to do this & that before the installation of PAPAGO! X5 runs 100% fine.

PS: Not sure about you but I've been getting a few lock-ups, but not that much until I wanna flash the ROM right away. Will continue testing this ROM for 24 hours.

Manila home page starts to slow down after 4 quick links has been added. But if there's only 3 quick links, Manila home page speed will be back to normal. Damn.
Valkyrie FireStormLEO v5.6 23518.

LOL, that's a typo.
Yerp, I'm on 5.6.

Don't use 28206, it's very buggy right now.

By the way, don't use EnergyROM, it has a lot of problems.
If you really want a fast ROM, use Valkyrie FireStormLEO v5.6 21889, though the UI for all 21889 is based on the old Windows Mobile 6.5 interface whereas the Start Menu is at the top. But if you want to try the new user interface whereas the Start Menu is at the lowest part of the screen.

Why don't you try Valkyrie FireStormLEO v5.6 23581, it's a good ROM to start with.

You can get Valkyrie FireStorm LEO v5.6 from these links below:

Guys, help me request agent_47 to re-cook Valkyrie FireStorm LEO v5.6 23518 without the 16 quick links. This way we'll have an even faster Valkyrie FireStorm LEO v5.6 23518.

If more of us request for the same thing, he will do it for us. Help me to help you all.

The 16 quick links lags the Manila main home screen like hell when 4 quick links is added into the space. Though I just can't leave any of the spaces blank as it'll look ugly.

Post your request here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512050

Yes there is.
X5 is first made for Android based platform.
But later on PAPAGO also produces X5 for Windows Mobile.

Using it now.

Trial? Really.... ?
