GPS signal is totally free..but the navigation system is not free. U need to buy the navigation software such as Garmin MXT, Mapking before u can enjoy the free GPS signal & also the free maps from the websites in my siggy.

For Nokia maps (Another navigation system, they even smart...you can download their free maps & even nolia maps is free ! BUT..The navigation function..i.e prompting u nst ture & guide u to a preset destination is not free..U need to subscribe! & the subscribtion rate oledi increase from RM38 to RM42 now (probably due to USD inflated)

Help.. I using SE G900. which oso a symbian hp.. but it don hv gps function.
is't possible i install a gps software to it? and our telco wil charge on my usage of it?

Not sure if a GPS receiver will work with G900 or not.

U need to find a version of GPS software that will work in G900, till now I havent come across yet~

logical if the SE UIQ is same as Nokia symbian it should work the same means can install If really work or not i dont know

U can check by clicking at the "Garmin Buyer Guide" icon here:

https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=138&pID=9796

So far I can't see any Sony G900 but Sony P1i yes.. If your phone symbian similar to Sony P1i probably yes..

Updated the FAQ with Garmin General Guide as well as some FAQ bout A-GPS.

Keep asking question so I can add them to the first page

U probably wanted to add malfreemaps as well, currently the most updated North, central & east Peninsular maps except Melaka, Jojor & Sabah Sarawak...Also no unlock code required

built in pda gps or gpsr sux....

small screen, thousand settings etc

get a dedicated gps better


... im using 205w ... but having hard time using malfreemaps... map not loading properly (it comes with malsing 2.30)

Yes, I had included it already the download link with ALL the FREE MAPS. Added it 2am This morning

Partially correct, Built in PDA/Smartphone GPSr sucks, however Bluetooth GPSr does not sucks, it works great and can lock the position within seconds.

Getting a GPSr using with Smartphone is cheaper solution

Malsing Free MAP for symbian is different with those MAP for dedicated GPS~

Hehe , What I mean is not malsingmaps but the new forum of malfreemaps here:

http://malfreemaps.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=468&start=0

my friend got a nokia 6110.....he want sell to me..now i consider this gps can install the garmin...
someone let me know.....

Malfreemaps? Can tell me more bout it, I am lazy to read all over it. Then I'll add it to the first page. Thanks


Yes can

PMed to you oledi but it's good to highlight again the history..Infact abit of sad history ...Malsingmaps started off wth Adilothman (M'sia) & Aprivate (Singapore), In between, others such as antyong, jmleng, noah, berngps & more joined in & resulted in MSM as what it's Today, However in 2006, there is a differerences between few mappers and resulted on the 1st word of war in believer of opensource & mappers' owned maps.

Then nearing to 2007 & continue till Aug'08, survey was put up to commercialise malsingmaps and suprisingly majority support malsingmaps to be commercialized i.e copyrighted the maps & sell to commercial interested parties. Nevertheless, the maps will still be free for contributors. Although survey was put-up by the admin, certain mappers & even the admin are actually disagreed on the commercialization. & also impending "Gray" area on how Garmin going to re-act to this issue!

Thus, it was decided that those mappers that disagreed on commercialization to pull-out from MSM & set-up new forum..i.e malfreemaps.com and in the beginning, malfreemaps will provide updates to malsingmaps too...However on the day the new forum set-up, things doesn't works as what it should be and thus...the emminent break-off of MSM & Malfreemaps...

Hehe..u should knows by now who are those mappers that disagree on commercialization Well, although there's differences in opinion, thing will probably cool down in future...Well, the 2006 mapper that pull out from MSM has returned as the new mapper to EPM & NPM & probably PRK-R too...so wait & see-lah

At this point of time, if u ask me which maps is more up to date, I will say malfreemaps bcos it's updated every week & no tedious unlocked code needed. Progress on Melaka, Johor & Singapore in malfreemaps is catching up very fast too..

thanks a lots.........

Oh, ok,

So that means Malfreemap will continue to contribute to Malsing Map? But is Malsing Map's update gonna be included in Malfreemap?

No both are consider competing website already. Suppose to be win-win but now total break-off...U either choose Malsingmaps or malfreemaps.

Malfreemaps are more up to date & POIs are more prominent for eg logos of Shell, petronas, Esso, Giant, Tesoc & etc. however they are starting new on Melaka, Johor & singapore maps which is suprisingly fast from the day 1 of breakoff...Too bad up to todate no Sabah & Sarawak mappers yet.

Malsingmaps are less updated in North Central & East coast bcos the last updates was in Sept'08 whereas, malfreemaps has been updated ~ 5 times since break-off!! However, contributions in malsingmaps will not be updated in malfreemaps & vice-versa..Each forums have their own contributors.

So what u se now in malfreemaps & malsingmaps are different!...In future..no idea..

thanks chicaman for your clue. thanks. starbucks. haha

A tough choice man, I can switch over the map in Mapsource easily, however I cant do that in Garmin Mobile XT, I have to edit it manually to switch those maps which is quite troublesome.

No idea which Map to use now >.<

Haha

Ok, I've updated the first Page with Malfreemap and explanation by Stimix.

i simply re-name the gmapsupp & get best of both world. if go southern part then switch to MSM & vice-versa
