gps on V9m
while most of the content here is not original (ie created by me), but it does take a bit of piecing together when i did it the other night... anyway, from what i know, there are 2 free programs that has gps capability for the v9m -
where 2.0, you should be able to to get it from sprint easily, works right out of the box mobile gmaps - require a bit of setting up: Enable developer root - https://developer.sprint.com/site/gl...activation.jsp Once you register you can click on the "Device/ESN Activation Go there now" link. - 1. Click on the "Develop" Tab - 2. (On the left) choose "Enabling device for activation" - 3. Click "Device ESN Activation" (ESN is in HEX and case sensitive. Use A, B, etc). The ESN is on your box or behind the battery. - 4. Add your phone - 5. After your phone is added, under "actions" choose active. You might need to wait a few hours until the activation occurs. download the program to your pc here - http://forum.mgmaps.com/download.php?id=115 upload both the .jad and .jar file to "applications" using this website http://www.gtoal.com/pcs/ and you should be good to go. if you are getting errors, it's most likely due to your developer root wasn't activated properly. goodluck all. |

sprint navigation is available, and is completely visable on the outer LCD.
 the problem, for me anyway, is that after 1-2 minutes the phone will say "NO GPS" when it's certainly available.

I can get mine to work with the sprint navigation. I have not tried it with the flip closed as of yet. I will try that on my way to work this morning and see what happens.

I am currently using MG-MAPS on my V9M and it is workign great using the internal GPS and Sprint Developer active. Could not be more happy, unless I was getting Sprint Navigation for free.

3gInferno has Telenav & two Garmin app's available for d/l. I think they have Garmin 303, and Garmin 21. Any opinions on which of the three works best? BTW, they're free d/l from that site (3ginferno.com on your V9M browser).

Hey, I followed the installation steps outlined in this forus thread, but it seems like it takes a long time for the maps to load, even when I have good coverage (bars). Any issues with lthe maps loading slowely (white screen)?
