the one im using is 5.00.30. i tried updating to that version but it still crashes.
i can open the garmin software fine, but the moment i start the turn by turn navigation the screen freezes, then it just crashes. could it be something to do with the s60 firmware compatibility?
*
hmmm.. you can find answer >> here

seems that when you open garmin.. dont open any other software..
if u do multi task.. it will crash..

mind that your ram is only 128MB
maybe garmin use a lot of ram memory..
hmm.gif but i'm not so sure

i wonder how's the performance of nokia navigator's (such as 6210 or 6710) gps as compared to other nokias such as n78, n79, n82...?

besides the lifetime licence for the nokia maps (very little POIs but fast image rendering), is the signal stronger? better accuracy? faster sat-lock?
*
it is just almost the same..
when testing 6210 navigator.. the performance.. is just like Nokia N85... ohmy.gif

not yet try the 6710 Navigator[maybe its better]

but seriously the standalone gps.. is better than phone's gps laugh.gif

how come my garmin xt always got 1 bar coverage only? and searching for satelites for so long..im using n85 and currently stay at kl
*
well.. there is many factors..

here is the factors

1st.. the place.. if you open garmin in open place.. @ i.e outside your car.. and in open place.. no roof @ only sky.. and not in the building..
i'm sure you can get full@green bar in less than 2 minutes

2nd.. if u haven't open your garminxt for long time.. it can affect too..

3rd.. let say.. you open garmin in perlis.. than you off it while you still in perlis.. then.. you want to open in KL.. for sure it will take time.. as your GPS still locking at Perlis.. it will take time about 5 minutes to lock the GPS in KL.. ..

well in my N85.. I can say that the GPS performance is excellent !! never taking more than 5 minutes to lock[I disabled the A-GPS] usually in less than 2 minutes... and sometimes not even a half minute[as I'm always use]

hi friends,

i'm using nokia 5800, got GarminMobileXT installed. Garmin is running fine.
my doubt is when started Garmin 'always ask to enable Bluetooth'.
what i always do is i just enable it, & when finish serching i just cancel to connect, then only i can use/navigate gps (Garmin)

1) Is it possible to avoid the Enable Bluetooth Menu?
2) Is GarminMobile really need our bluetooth ON to activate our Build in GPS?

thanks guys...

IF you have original license from garmin.. this problem will not exist..

firstly.. how you get garmin software..??[from the website.??]

well usually garminxt come packaged with 2GB microSD.. USD 99 ..but now the production is stopped..

and there should be no problem..

this problem is existed if u have no license to use garmin navigation system..

anyway.. you need the license or use external GPS receiver[about RM 200-RM 400] that can be connected via bluetooth[thats why there are option to connect via bluetooth]...

if you have original licensed that is activated.. then.. there are two option to choose.. whether use Bluetooth GPS or use Attached GPS

go to Tools >> Settings >> System >> Remote GPS >> Disable >> choose option no.2 - Use attached GPS >> Enable it >> Done !
