i wonder if i can fix this annoying feature in garmin xt:

it displays ok while the car is moving like in this pic:




then when the car is stop moving at the traffic light garmin suddenly change the view to this



if stop long enuf it will keep changing view to all crazy directions and confuse the hell out of me.

when the car starts moving it will go back to proper view direction. how to fix this thing. thank you.

my 5800 auto rotate display is disabled.

why my n95 cannot detect gps?..anyone please help me...

i once bought a Nuvi 205. I wanted to know how can i check and download the latest map into my garmin device? All i have here is the device and the car charger only. Please help me.

N95 is older version chipset & the antenna is hidden too deep to get the best signal. So u really have to stand long outside hot sun, wityhout any blocking trees & building to get satelite fix..can be as long as 10min for 1st time, once got it, getting fix the nxt time ~3min. Otherwise, u need to activate your AGPS (need 3G/GPRS hor & not free)..that way faster.

Thereafter, just to to that folder, copy "gmapsupp.img" & paste to your Nuvi garmin folder...it will overide your old maps. So if u wanna keeps the old one, copy & paste the old gmapsupp out sopmewhere..This post has been edited by stimix: Nov 6 2009, 10:54 AM

throw away the 5800xm la. thats the most useless gps fon on earth

does than mean other nokia phones like N78, N79 and E series have better GPS?

What actually happen to Nokia S60 R5 in 5800 are few apparent bugs that till the end of Garmin MXT era yet to be fixed for eg...u kenot type ;'/?$@& keys otherwise system crashed & they have yet to resolve the browse maps function i.e whenever u drag the maps elsewhere also crash!!

Currently Garmin has stop developing garmin MXT thus no more bugs fixing for Garmin MXT in newer Nokia phone except older S60 R3 such as N78, N79, B82, N95 & more...meaning dun buy new version of symbian if u wannna stable Garmin MXT.

i got n79 also i wan throw liao. lock fast but not accurate for what.



basically i've tried the gps on most nokia phones, ranging from 6220c to some e-series and n-series. all also not accurate. all mostly give fei kei readings. make my track logs look like crap only.

6220c is one of the best. 1 sec tracks look very decent for a cheap plasticky phone with xenon camera. N79 can go sau pei la. even my n79 also i vomit blood.
E66 another fei kei positioning like N79. and when i see stimix's 5800xm, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, its a phone i shall avoid my whole life.
n85 quite ok. comparable to 6220c's standard. and i think stimix used to have n82, didnt hear him complain much bout his 82's accuracy.

N82 my brother wanlah....no complain from him so must be good liao....atleast Nokia phone although might not be good in track recording 7 also bugs in 5800, but can run GPS simulatneosly wth data loggers (Race chrono, Velox) & navigation (Garmin MXT)...winmo really period..kenot run together wan!!

u didnt read mfm pm ah from king of trackers ? i sent on your behalf ......u really KNN go check pls.
and your n82 > 5800

cannot detect??or take a long time to detect??
if cant detect mean,ur garmin not un-lock yer...
buy d seriel key lohh

hi now got new version of garmin 5.00.60 for symbian is it? I saw from other forum and there is this standalone version but after install cannot use

wat tokking you ?

That's the last Garmin MXT version b4 they discontinued Garmin MXT. But it is for Taiwan market & in mandarin..However u can change to english version by following simple steps posted in MFM by 76gpsguy.

Anyway this version has not solve the bugs in the touch screen version of S60 Release 5..esp Nokia 5800...I am using this version & yes the bugs stil there..

i still use 5.00.10.

This is a normal thing for all garmin phones. Because the only way the gps know which direction u are going is when ure moving not stand still. I dont see a problem for this. It only happen when u stop. When ure moving it will be on track again.
