nokia 2730 classic has no integrated gps...

so no way to use gps..


if you still want navigating.. use the google maps... but you still need to online , so it required data connection to load the maps..

hey guys, need a little advice here. I am planning to get a GPS, some Garmin Nuvi (dunno wat model yet), but a friend of mine suggested that I get a handphone with GPS capabilities. Cant make up my mind, would a phone with GPS function as well as a Garmin Nuvi? For phone, Im considering Nokia e73.

any charges for using a phone GPS? (sorry if im asking nooby questions)

thank you all.

if your purpose is navigation e73 screen is too tiny 2.36inch only. U can consider garmin phone

i think garmin nuvi is better, for phone we use garmin mobile xt which has been discontinued so no lane assist and junction view feature, nuvi has these useful feature.

driving in kl without lane assist is difficult.

just go for garmin-asus nuvifone.. it is better...


actually.. it has no charges.. but it depends on the setting...,if u enable go online , enable a-gps .. then.. you will be connected to connection[internet] during navigation.. it helps gps performance though..


yes.. it also can be free..


if u mean garmin nuvi [standalone device] .. yes it has better performance and no charge at all...


yes e73 has gps too.. but well maybe you wont satisfied with the screen and gps performance

so... the garmin-asus phone is the answer

alright guys, thank you for the replys!

how to turn off/disable a-gps permanently? now i need to turn it off everytime i on my gps.

what is your phone..?

what is your gps application..??

if it is symbian / nokia and garmin .. please go to 1st page..

Depends on what you wanted.

If you do not need phone function, then surely a dedicated Garmin Nuvi would be better.

If you do not need to carry a GPS in your pocket like only use in car, then surely Garmin would be better

Common sense.

hmm i got a question. Before this i had garmin mobile xt working on my phone nokia 5730. It was installed by the shop when i bought it. But i accidentally reformatted my mmry card n garmin was deleted as well. I installed it back n did everything rite i guess. But the gps isnt working now. The signal bar stays at red forever. Any help? Thanks.

do you have backup the license..??

if not ... of course it dont work..

by the way.
other factors is such as..
your place --> go to open place.. clear ..

got it to work already! btw wanna ask isit good to charge hp using the car charger while using gps? bcoz some ppl say not good charging+talking on the phone or msging coz it will dmg the batery. how bout gps? it drains battery too fast.

Buy a good charger & dun buy those Cheapo RM10 can liao..Those cheap wan no powesurge/regulator thingy & thus if there is irregular voltage/surge can spoil...Those expensive wan got wor..but dunno how true....ehhh I use the cheapo wan..& yes I charge frequently using car charger

your phone is rubbish so it wont make much difference.
btw we need to go for dinner.

Just want to ask, currently I'm using malsingmaps, if I back up "my location" and then replace my map with malfreemaps, can I still restore "my location" data to new map?

yeah can be installed i guess.

garmin mobile xt runs only on symbian,palm and windows mobile, so if the phone runs on any of the OS, it will take garmin.

thnks..
aft read the review..
the garmin xt juz can run on symbian,palm and windows mobile and oso sony UIQ3.0 sistem..
so i oso tink Sony ELM can run this software gua~
thnks guy for t explanations ~ ^^

Kenot. As u already mentioned, those are Windows & Symbian. Garmin MXT does not support other platforms other than the 2 & also Blackberry (US only>)
