From my experience using GPS in Iphone, you need to ON "3G or EDGE or GPRS" but since i have a some cache on the maps (i not using any offline maps yet and iphone somehow got cache for the maps i view from google), it never eat my $$ . this maybe because the iphone gps is A-GPS, where it use the cell tower to locate where you are.

Basicly, the GPS u need on the 3G/EDGE/GPRS to locate your location, but not eat $$, as long u nvr load the maps.

It should be work same concept as offline maps installed.
PS: having exam, prolly will try offline maps system when i finish my exam and projects ^^

if the google map shows a radiating, pulsating blue dot, then your gps device is being placed in action. to prove this, simple try to activate it in a very enclosed building where the gps signal simply couldn't penetrate; it will not be a blue dot anymore.


however on the other hand, if it shows a round constricting circle (twice), you are probably being triangulated via cell tower or your internet provider's hub.


just observe the wheel encircling beside the 3G, E, . , if it does rotate then data is currently being sent and received.

Actually mate, GPS is irrelevant to the 3G coverage by your respective telecommunications providers. GPS coverage strength is dependant on your location's satellite coverage. Just a note wink.gif
