Bro, GPS meaning "Global Positioning System", its not meaning the map. Map and GPS is different items

G5 does has stock GPS apps(Map), its call google maps

You can choose to use Google maps instead of papago, it up to you

Google maps can move and follow your movement

This question has been answered many time in the thread.............

There is no way to install in sd card without froyo

its just Google map. for location you need set it at setting>location & security>my location.it need wifi or network internet to locate you.

hhehe.. most people who r new to GPS would get confused about this. GPS (Global Positioning System) is a chipset, a piece of hardware in the phone which is required by a GPS-navigation software to run such as PaPaGo, google maps

just tried Google maps and it does work and follow you just like other map app but you will need internet connection and Google account to use it properly.

THANK YOU! so i have to download the google maps?

Added on November 10, 2010, 3:04 pmlong press in any of the text input/textbox, select input method -> DioPen Chinese IME
after that, you could choose to type chinese/english by pressing on the button that switch between alphabets/symbols/numbers, you can also change the keyboard type by pressing the settings button. only 3x4 keypad you can type chinese using pinyin, qwerty only have stroke option

Hey guys.insya'allah Just wanna share some info.

I use a lot of widget and addicted to sync. Google calender, google task, contact, weather etc.

Before this many of my widget when crazy and refuse to update or sync. I found out from the web this is caused by task killer apps. So after I deleted advanced task killer, all my widget and sync now working fine. Except facebook contact,, still showing error. Don't know why.

So if you guys have problem with widget. Maybe this info may help.

Hi all G5 users.

I just got this excellent device myself and I am astounded by the value that this device provides without paying a hefty sum for an android phone.

I have some questions regarding data access/mobile internet or mobile network (as the android menu calls it). I would normally turn off "Enable always-on mobile" and only turn on when I need data access, however this will prevent push gmail or other syncs to happen (i.e. facebook updates, etc.)

Is there a way/option to only access mobile internet/data based on need basis rather than always on?

I came from a symbian phone and there is an option provided to only connect to mobile internet on need basis.

Appreciate all your help. This thread has been a great resource for G5 owners.

Thanks.
