I had experience once only on the auto close issue, which is use the map in night mode.. Upon from that, never encounter any problem..
QUOTE(blugear @ Mar 22 2009, 09:40 AM) My XGPS works only for around 7-8 minutes and then it auto close. I dunno why. I still prefer the pre installed map software use with offlinemaps. More stable and reliable.  |

GPS services is FREE of charge to the world by USA... second part is the map. iphone uses google map.. Xgps offer us to download google map offline..If not, then need 3G/WIFI in order for the online map to work
QUOTE(maru @ Mar 22 2009, 02:54 PM) just want to ask is the GPS free of charge or u need to hook on the net for this 3G iphone ? will it work like those nokia handphone? |

Issue a ping command from your Desktop to your iphone WIFI ip address to confirm the connection.. If your iphone is ping able.. Then, to me is your Windows Firewall is blocking.. Pls turn off any personal firewall...Good luck

Question.. By default the EDGE/GPRS is not being configure with a new SIM card.. It has to configure on the phone itself.
Check out from your phone in Setting-->General-->Network-->Cellular Data Network-->Advanced Digi Setting is APN=diginet username= leave blank pass=leave blank If you really want to prevent this happend.. Just key in any dummy value into APN.. Then, it will not connect to EDGE/GPRS QUOTE(enilegna @ Mar 25 2009, 09:53 PM) Thanks for answering my question. When I just bought the iPhone I leave the EDGE on, thats why it automatically connected to the internet for directions. And it was the main reason why my phone bill went double. Thx Nokia2003 for the reply. |

QUOTE(igeu69 @ Mar 28 2009, 11:31 AM) Anyone got Klang Valley map to share? xGPS Manager not working on my laptop  . Only seeing grey background. Earlier I thought it could be my pc problem but apparently it's not. Am using company laptop as my own desktop got hardware problem. Have a feeling it could be some Microsoft security patch that causes the thing fail to work. |
