now i am at the screen where it says---> before you can start using navigation........... you will first need to connect to your Garmin GPS receiver.....make sure your GPS device is powered on and has a clear view of the sky...

below there the status always say scanning bluetooth and scanning attached.. is something wrong with it?? i wait very long (20 min) at this section and fed up, then i just skip this part.

u are able to use Garmin if only u have bluetooth gps Garmin branded.. u also can use internal gps to work with garmin by purchasing microSD card Garmin branded

I'm looking a casing that can store stylus thats available locally. Have visited many shops cannot find.

I also try to make most application thumb friendly (use thumb calendar/finger keyboard/Home2) but find few application still need to use stylus, so cannot leave it behind.

Omnia got built in gps rite? i ady solved the above probs, i went outside my house and the signal is full. the prob now is when i try to search addressess in that garmin software, it says ---> detailed maps are required to use this feature.......

i ady copy the gmapsupp.ing into mystorage/garmin. anything that i must do or try? thanks in advance

try using malfreemap from link below.
http://jomheboh.com.my/jomforum/garmin-map-poi/

malfree map is free map, can download it for free.........
and it update every week.
i also got this problem before, n after put malfreemap, problem solved

just wanna ask, can ur gps detect your location or not????

gud luck....

thanks one0202... will update you later k btw, which one is better, malfreemap or the other map?

No necessary.
before u use garmin program. try go to ur setting in Settings>External GPS.
1. In program tab, select an COM for ur program. I pout COM3
2. In hardware tab>GPS hardware port put COM9 and bandrate 4800
3. Access tab, click automatically

it work prefect with me.
normally first locking of satelite will be longer time. u can make it faster by click on new location (in garmin), then change ur locatin on the map to a place near ur current location.

thanks bro... i change my map to MFM and my GPS works perfectly.. maybe i did some mistake when using the Malsingmaps.. thanks for your suggestion


thanks for the tip.. btw, its hard for me to have good signal although i am outside my house.. normally i only get 2 red signals. any recommendation how to improve my signal ??

Hey guys. If any of you..(somehow) don't want the accessories for your omnia, do drop me a pm eh.?

I'd buy it,given a reasonable price.

plz dont use other links but instead go direct to the source

for malfreemaps www.malfreemaps.com
and the other one www.malsingmaps.com

and giving out that link is the same as giving out the link to a pirated software as the gold edition is only for contributors...

congrat.......actually i also have same problem with u before.......im also newbie in omnia
still learning.
if want fast detect signal. must update XTRA Data Download
go to ----Setting>System>Enhanced GPS....and update XTRA data download.
normally the data will expired in 7days, so, need to update back.

gud luck mate.......

how much do they charge for that XTRA Data Download? can provide me with the rate?

MFM is already giving free maps. No any contribution needed.
Why must you link to somewhere else?

its free la bro..u can update using free wifi at wifi zone..
or u can download it using pc sync..

-connect ur pc to internet
-connect ur omnia to ur pc
-then press XTRA Data Download in Enhance GPS
-wait until it say successful

or maybe u dunno what to do wif ur prepaid or ur bill then u can download using 3G connection

may i ask another question please... hmm, if i am connected to a wi-fi connection. how to make sure that web browsing, messenger and all the internet related stuff is connected using that wifi? i am afraid that my hp will use my maxis prepaid to surf the interet when i have the wifi connection

next time go through 1st page of this topic.... already mention the relevant program.. NODATA!

already go through the first page... cant find anything about wifi? and what is NODATA!


edit--> thanks.. ady googled NODATA. thanks for the guide
