[Google maps alternative]Geopositioning by gsm maps & no internet connection needed?
hello, what i'm looking for, is a program kinda google maps, with geopositioning by gsm, and that don't needs to have an internet connection to download the maps.
I tried navizon, but it need to use internet to dowload the maps...
Any ideas? Something similar to the progam that allows to use google maps offline in the iphone??
Cheers

I have been using GPS software for more than a year now, and never found a good software that was for free. Google maps is ok, but if you want a good one, then you have spend some $$. If you happen to come across any good free ones, let me know as well.
The paid software I use now is Odyssey Maps 4.0. Used to use DeLorme, but didnt like it as much as Odyssey.
Also windows live search new version has maps in it too like google...
whats a good free mapping program to use for the wing? i haven't really been able to find anything decent..
thanks

you can just go to google.com/gmm from your phone and it will find the version appropraite for your phone and tell you to download it.
just go to google.com through IE on your phone and search for "google maps mobile" it will come up, download it directly and install it, VERY easy.

hi to all
i wanted to ask, if it is possible to use google maps without the internet on my diamond....
for example : is there any way to load the map of germany on my phone so i can use it without paying for internet
thanks for responses
try smart2go; similar and you can store maps...
can somebody explain me how i get that on my diamond?
i guess it´s for nokia...
new bie question
I am confused. I would like to know whether we can install the google maps on diamond? can we use it just to find our way without connecting to GPS and so on.
I am sorry I don't have so much knowledge.
thanks for your kind reply.
greetings!

I use TrekBuddy for the same purpose. It works nice on the Diamond.
search for smart2go wm6
I use GoogleMaps in Colorado, and it does work with and without GPS. Here in the US, GoogleMaps will use cell towers to triangulate where you are (been off as much as a half mile before), but it is better than nothing if you have no data plan.
no, it is not possible. you need internet to download maps on the fly. gm does have limited memory where you can browse a map (via internet) and it remembers a few frames for when you arent connected

That's called AGPS. Without using GPS and internet connection, the device finds your location. Iphone uses AGPS. I have no idea whether GoogleMap on diamond uses AGPS or not. But it's really annoying that when using GoogleMap without turning data connection on, GoogleMap keeps on popping that it needs some sort of data connection and I need to cancel it constantly.
Guys, anyway to get around this?

I just started working on GL Maps this past week. It caches maps for 48 hours.
It's still very early beta though, so it probably won't fit what you need for a while.
Hi everyone,
I am from Greece and I am interesting in a program that will be able to download the whole Greek map of Google Maps in my HTC from home.
So, when I go to a mountain that I don't have Internet access I will be able to track my position.
Do you know any program that can do that?
Do you know if I can do something similar using a GPS software?
Thank you
It's way better to use a programm like GPS Tuner with the right map then using Google Maps for that!
Just my 2 Cents
Thank you for your reply animelover.
Do I have to make the maps in GPS Tuner or can I find them?
search for google navigator !

If there's an exsisting Map for the wanted region, why not? But you can also make your own maps by scanning a map of trails!
If you know to use Google, you can search for an app that can make huge GPS-ready maps using Google Earth on your desktop!

no, only for Set Destination need internet connection.... when you set destination, you can turn off internet connection
is there some other apps that use just gps satelites to position??
Search for Navigon wp7 cracked software.
I am not allowed to post here cracked links so you have to search it on google...
I hope I helped
P.S. Navigon is a full gps navigation application that is working completely offline
All you need to do is download in the start up the maps and then you go offline for ever.
