2)Although there is a function to record tracks...but I hv not tried that..always comes wth error msg...who cares since u can't use the tracklog for contribution to Malsingmaps :
3) The 20min to get GPS fix (not tracking) is probably due to the location u try to acquire the satelite...U need to stand in the open sky & not under a shade/house/trees or even those highrise beside u! GPS satelites is very weak & cannot penetrate thru buildings. Initial or cols start (after soft reseting -5min. Hard start ~1-2min..It's pretty normal for SirfIII chipset to acquire slowly compare wth those wth AGPS (Nokia/HP) but the accuracy is much better than those AGPS or even those wth 32/40 channeld MTK chipset!!
4) U need to change the brightness setting to only 3 bars..(I bet u the battery life of thsi is even better than my new Nokia 6120!!) - U need to switch off bluetooth/GPS & wifi too..those are the culprits. The battery on GPS can goes up to 5hours compare to 2 hours using Noika Maps + BT GPSr on Nokia 6120!!
..Standby time on idle witout running any BT/GPS/wifi is an astonishing 3 days!! much better than Nokia 6120!!5) No idea on diff charger....but for sure the car charger is the fastest..Fully charged <1hr...wth GPS on probably 1.5Hr-2hr
6) Yes few of us using it....but for me, naked is better

Hello guys, new user here.
Still learning to use the mapking software,
~realised you have to find a location, save it as POI(repeat this for another location), then only you can route it and simulate it, can't you find it and route it straight away?
~How to record ur track using Mapking? Meaning I want to record the roads I've passed.
~GPS Tracking was taking ages to be fixed, approximately 20mins+- lol. Got to try to use it more often.
~Battery drains like my fat hamter food ;D Noticed i've set the Brightness too high to be the cause.
~Regarding the charger, i found that PC usb charging is much faster than the normal charger, probably because I'm using the dopod charger. However dopod charger has the same output current as the original charger. Hmmmm. Anyone using dopod charger to charge?
~Just bought RM10 silicone casing. Good but the camera is not protected.
Looking forward to the CAPDASE silicone cover or the likes. Anybody using it? Good? How much and where can I get it in Malacca? Don prefer to use leather casing, find it troublesome and bulky. ;D
Nice to meet all the XI FUs here.
