GPS without GPS hardware

Anybody know of any products that will run without the hardware? just over WAP/GPRS?

RAC does a system called trackm8 but it costs about £500 to set up then £150 a year. It is so cheap to add a gps to your xda, I have seen TOMTOM3 with gps selling for just over £100.

Since I'm norwegian I'll see if I get time to test/translate the tip this weekend...

Awww awesome man! Thanks
I travel around alot, so only having one device would be very handy

I looked through it and fihured out how to do it. Howver I will tell you right now, in any language, it is not worth the effort.
Howver if you are going to do it, I suggest using
Pocket Controller-Professional as aposed the free microsoft app, MS app sux.
Also the Soft Cam App also kinda sux...
But i guess its better than nothing.

It doesn't say wizard supported (im on cingular 8125) but it does say magician, i have yet to get this to work. Best of luck to others on getting it working.

CoolCamera version 1.11 works as Webcamera on HTC Wizard (and other models).
Download:

More info:

I confirm, sup2006 is right! The last version of coolcamera finally does it, you can use your wizard as a webcam

great!
this works pretty good... too bad it only works for 25 seconds for the unregistered version... does anyone have the update or whatever to make it the full version????

Well, PCP has been tried and all I can say is:
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
Its ace and if you are willing to spend cash, then this is it.
LOL, its excellent, I have no idea about most of the features as I have just used it for 10 minutes and went straight for the kill with the remote camera.
Actually, I say remote camera, the entire device is remote, you just see on the PC what is on the device screen.
Definate must.
The one drawback I can see is that it doesnt work if the device is in standby. i.e. One press of the power button. Coolcam works so I don't see why this doesn't, but hey, I'm not complaining,

Should i buy Cingular 8125?

Please give me advise, i like the the design and the keyboard, but is there any other bad things i should know about this phone? also any other suggestions? pls help me, its nice to be here.

i have made a really good comparison between the 8125 and 8525 here:

while i know you are only asking about the 8125 but this may give you a better insight but i would definitely tell you to go for it

your welcome.. and to be honest, there isnt really much reason to change roms if you dont need to, if your satisfied with the device then leave it be (the theory of, if its not broke then dont fix it applies here) if you think there are things that need to be changed then by all means, read up and do something about it

this person is selling a used 8125
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286560
and the 8525 is $409 with a 2 year agreement (meaning upgrade or new contract) i think you can also flat out purchase the 8125 from cingular for around $250

there is no virus greater than human error i would suggest investing in a back up program such as SPB or Sprite

only if you think you necessarily need the extra space.. i would probably spend some quality time with the phone, and get to know it a little better before changing it.. it will help to you to get a better idea of what you are looking for, maybe you will want some faster, or more storage.. there are a lot of choices out there that will help cater to your needs

Some companies produce software to sell, it's a fact of life =)
It is a great app, I prefer it to all of the other touch managers I have tried.

i have spb shell 2.0 on one of my wings and its a pretty niffty app.
on my other wing that i use a lot more i use opentouch rom and its very similar..

SPB software rocks... you can't go wrong with it.
The only thing I dont like is each one of their programs takes up alot of space..

Program for the dollars and euro?

Is there annyone that knows a program that can help me see how the curse of ex. dollar or euro are going?
Im using a HTC touch diamond.
Please help me, i have lookt for a eternity for that program, i know that iphone has a fimilior program like that.
Again, please help me.
Manny thanks!
And sorry my bad english

Ever tried Yahoo Finances or Google?

Google does it pretty well, but if you prefer using a software (to convert currencies without connecting to Internet each time), MSSConverter can handle it. But it is not finger friendly at all...
