It will cost you around RM100 but it differ one from another. You must seek from your device which type of socket you current device use.


That round symbol with number represent actual satellite up in the space.

hello.a newbie here.
what is Garmin version for htc touch 3g?

Check out this...

Mobile XT for Windows Mobile

It take times to lock the position. Sometime 5 minute, sometime 3 minute and sometime even take 10 minutes. I wonder will the external attenna really does help to expedite the fixing gps position o not.

Btw, got one problem is when go into tunnel, the gps signal wil lost and when i am out of the tunnel, there is left or right turn. The gps havent comeback to 'live' yet and thus it's quite a gamble either to take left or right.

Also when there is two turning which distance is quite near to each other, it will make us confuse too to take chich turn. Either the first turn or second turn. Happens to me when going Dynasty hotel.

That day when i tried Kepong to USJ, it show me a very far road (i choose recommended road on mapking). Instead of using LDP to Federal Highway and back to subang, it navigate me to elite highway and all the way to Bukit Raja and the GPS unit still show there is another 10KM b4 making left turn. I chicken out and follow NST there keluar shah alam and back to USJ.

sometimes must use logic also if u think yr direction is better than gps suggestion. unless u are totally new to that area

if i'm not wrong sirfstar connects to 12 satellites right?

According to WiKipedia regarding SiRFstar_III, it can received up to 20 channel (means 20 satellite perhaps...) but for normal usage you already can get your coordinate after getting 4 satellite fix.

Can anyone let me know if i can download at Malsing forum on

1. Traffic Light Icon
2. Speed Trap Warning

to my GPS Bay 3033? Will it have voice warn me speed trap or camera ahead? But it seems that my GPS Bay have this function that i can turn on the alert for Traffic Camera. But it didnt alert me b4. Only speeding warn which is annoying as above 60kmph sudah bising.. I turned it off in the end.

It spose to warn me 60kmph is over in city road but in highway, i can go 110km. But in highway, it also warn me and ask me to go slow after i reached 60kmph..

If I'm not mistaken your GPS device software was base on Mapking application (but I dunno which version of Mapking). From my previous experience when using Mapking, you can't download that saperately, it already been integrated with the map. That was different from from Garmin device where you can created that alert separately...

Hmm.. i think should be Mapking 2008 cause the latest map i using is Sept 2008.

Btw, can i use mapking for china in this unit?

Map version have nothing to do with software version. You can still have map update for the earlier version of Mapking (Mapking G10) same as in your Mapking 2007.

Yes, you can use the same software for map from other place. Just ensure the extension was the same...

got mapking2008 meh?

can anyone help me.........


1. which gps device is better........a pda....?a navigator like garmin....?
2. garmin device is it auto update......?or have to update manually.....?

Hi all, I need some help here
Just got my PDA not so long and has a built-in SiRF III GPS
previous owner of phone already installed Garmin XT into my storage card.. after reading thru a little here, i decided to download the map from malsingmaps and unrar into 2 files, one of which i copied into the main folder of garmin under my storage card. the file is gmapsupp.img for Malaysia/Sabah

But when i opened up my GPS i still have a blank screen.. have i missed something here?

A navigation device is always better than PDA and GPS phone.

But since price is nearly the same, I`d rather get a phone/PDA with GPS

Have you get the satellite fix while stare at the bank screen?

I need some help myself, I suspect its a GPS receiver fault. My location is stated as in Tengekera, although I`m moving. And GPS data cant be accessed too. Whats the chipset/ I forgot, willl see to it later.

Main while, have to use my P552w`s GPS for the time being
