According to google, if you flash a custom rom meant for unlocked phones it might brick the device.

I got question regarding the GPS on Android smartphone:

i) without 3G, without interness access, with offline mode, can i use GPS function like a GPS device (Garmin/Papago) with pre-loaded map inside?

ii) Can I install Garmin or Papago on Android? With apps support offline map?

Is the 3G and mobile internet settings for Digi in the simcard itself? That means, if i use the digi sim card from my nokia to my galaxy, will it have the settings automatically?
*
assume you are DiGi smart plan user, and your device NOT automatically detect the settings;

go to settings ---> go to wireless and networks ---> go to mobile networks ---> and go to access point names

from there add new APN

CODE


Menu -> New APN

Name : DiGi Internet

APN: diginet

MCC: 502

MNC: 16

APN Type: default (some devices, like mine shows either mms or internet or both, but i put internet+mms)

(Others, blank/empty)

oh, then the map can get easily update one?
So far I just familiar with Garmin and Papago which can easily download the updated map from time to time.

Anyone using the GPS with 3G & WIFI off?
What apps you are using on it?

As far as I know there's no garmin yet for android.

You should be able to use Papago without 3G/wifi
