hi guys, im new Omnia user. i have few questions:

1. can anyone teach me to how to use the GPS? wat is the step? i dunno i should click on which program to start to use it. i used to have NOkia, it charge my mobile credit, which i don wish, i see most of my frens using free navigation. can Omnia do it? thanks.

2. i change from LG KS20, how can i transfer the SMS from LG to Omnia? i have quite a lot important SMS. if not possible, got any ways to backup to PC? thanks.

3. i wanna change the scrollbar to thicker one, easier to use. i check one website, it wrote there:

HKLM\System\GWE

wat does this mean and how it works? thanks


4. wat are the main differences for Active Sync 4.0 and 4.5? i haven install 4.5, using 4.0, but still can sync my Outlook. any special function or advantage for 4.5? thanks


when i encounter more problem, i will post it here, hope to have guide from all senior here. thanks

thanks Baronic

regarding Garmin or Mapking, can i know how much it cost? just walk into Garmin shop and tell them i need a software for PDA phone? thanks.

thanks for the guide for PIM backup and registry editor. will try it out later, hope no problem

thank you so much.

sorry to ask one more question, can anyone here assist to guide me on how to download Malaysia map from Malsingmap website?

i tried searching around the website, don see any option to download.

preferably it can download whole Malaysia map + singapore map.

thanks.

Thanks Baronic,

but after i click download, it went to forum page. i click
Free S'pore & West M'sia Map

then it went to a page to download

GM-MySInMXT.exe [14.24 MB]
GM-MySin.exe [14.89 MB]

these two files are the map? but how come if i follow the guide by sukhoi35mk

the file name is call:

gmapsupp.img (Malaysia)


are they the same thing?

sorry for the silly question, im very new to GPS

thanks.

thanks Fence,

mapsource is a name of software? can download from Malsingmap? i will check later, maybe can get some tips from u, then easier to find

thanks.

Thanks to Baronic,

Added on March 29, 2009, 12:12 amya, i saved the backed up PIM file in my Micro SD card, to make sure it wont get deleted during the upgrade. but i will remove the microsd card before i upgrade ROM

hopefully i can successfully upgrade the ROM myself

thanks
