S200 - static navigation | geocaching - neoTouch S200 General

hi... =)
i am looking for a new phone
and acer s200 just looks pretty good...
but i need a good GPS in my phone
i use my phone for
- car navigation
- geoaching
the car navigation seems to bee no problem with the s200
but has anybody tried geocaching with it?
or does somebody know if the s200 has "static navigation"?
and if so, can you disable this "feature" somehow
i clicked through many pages here but still haven't found the answers to my questions.
Thanks for reading - and answering...

magician + navigon 4

Does someone know if navigon 4 works great on the magician ?
Can we receive some feedback from users that have tried it ?
Thanks.
I have used it and it works fine although personally I prefer TomTom
yaaah
I have the same problem with Navigon 4.2 when I connect it to a bluetooth GPS,
I'm tryed with so many options but not yet, nothing at all, IT DOSN'T WORK WITH THE BLOODY BLUETOOTH GPS, unless I find I a way out to change the bluetooth setting there,
I hope anybody can advise...
regards
Navigon works fine with my BT GPS. No problem at all.
TO jacoh.
Did you mean it is working with the imate jam (magician)?
if yes,
did you pair the bluetooth gps with com5 (as outbound)?
then normal setting of navigon,
then work fine (it is not finding the bt gps at all) where other small navigation software finds it and work with but not the navigon,
ANY SPECIAL STEP YOU DID TO LET IT WORK OR WHAT?
please advise!
thanx in advance
maybe you should call the Navigon software vendor and ask why it does not work.
unless you did not bought the software of course, but you certainly are not a f**king hacker are you?
Yes. It is working with iMate Jam (well it's a Qtek S100 with french OS). Com5 in Navigon settings. GPS is an emtac. No problem. Most of the time, problems come from BT pairing. Does your GPS receiver comes with a test application (emtac provides one for example)?
to mms72 :
i've read that the 4.2 doesn't work. Only the 4.01 does.
to jacoch :
Is it slooow or not ?
for example, when you don't follow the route, how long does it take to recalculate a new one (big delay or not) ?
thanks.
I've heard poeple in France saying it's quite slow to recalculate and almost unusable in cities. I have no problem on my side. It takes 1-2s to recalculate. But it seems to depend on the map density. I live in switzerland in a small city and the maps are probably simpler than the map of Paris or London.
Hi all,
I spend a lot of time to get MN4.2 working reliable. It depends on the protocol that your GPS is working with. As default for my RBT1000 was
GGA=1, GSA=1, GSV=5 RMC=1,GLL=0 and VTG=0. With this configuration the bluetooth connection will lost from time to time.
Now i have changed the protocol to GGA=1 and VTG=1. This combination works perfect for me. In some case (depends on your hardware) you need
GSA=1 also,
\\Yoshi
thank you yoshi:
simple and small question:
How to change those protocls :roll: in my imate jam..
Hi,
It depends on your mouse how to change the protocolls.
In my case the mouse came with a special software to change the protokoll. You can also some special tools for that for example:
winfast navigator.
\\Yoshi
thank you for the advice Yoshi
thank you Yoshi,
it (MN4.2) finaly worked with Holux GR-230 Bluetooth GPS after I changed some protocls (((( BuT )))) not stable , it works like 2 sec's on and 4 sec's off in finding the GPS Signal and I'm still trying to play with protocls to find the best combinations...
:evil: :evil: :evil: still fighting with it... :evil: :evil: :evil:
regards,
MN4.2 working great on my MDA compact with Fortuna Bluetooth GPS.
Mapfile > 330 MB! on 1 GB SD-Card.
Waiting for my 2GB Card to put the whole European map file on it.
Excellent product!
Just purchased MN4.2 with Navigon's GPS receiver. Their own receiver is great because it has TMC reception for traffic updates.
The software runs really well, routes are very fast calculated, no problems at all.
I think this software is really nice, all completely usable without stylus using the d-pad, it might look less appealing than TomTom, but it is way more sophisticated, and the maps are much better quality.
On their website they offer a very attractive upgrade price from any competitive product.
Only issue I noticed so far is that when I miss a turn it is sometimes very fast in giving me another route, and sometimes it is slower, don't know why, but always acceptable.
The only problem is with voice guidance, as it sometimes speaks too late. Particularly when there are turnings one after the other (very close, say 20m), then the voice guidance is a bit slow. It is ok if I am driving slowly, otherwise it speaks too late.
Having a glimpse at the map display clarifies any doubt, so no big issue.
The software is also extremely stable, you can open and close hundreds times without any problem. In my case, everything is installed on SD Card.
For the bluetooth, I first paired using the OS bluetooth config screen, and then I opened MN4, and gave COM5 as the bluetooth port. If it doesn't work, you should restart the program after switching off and on the receiver.
By the way, I live in London.
When I will have more experience with the product, I'll post further impressions.

Quick Newbie Question ?

Am about to purchase a GPS bluetooth receiver for my XDA Exec - I'm interested in either the Ledtek 9553 or Holus GR 236.
Whilst there main use will be car navigation - with the right software could they also be used for orienteering and letterboxing?
Does anyone know of good orienteering software that would use grid references as mapping points?
Thanks again
Jean

Bluetooth connection to Tomtom Go 300?

Hi all. I tried to pair my P3600 with my Tomtom Go 300. Although the GPS system saw the phone, it claimed that the phone didn't have the correct features to complete the connection. Anyone know what features it's talking about, and why the P3600 doesn't have them?
Lee
Is there a solution to pair the trinity with tomtom one/go ?
Regards,
Doubt it, don't think you can share GPS over anything.
Hello,
The probleme is not to share GPS but Bluetooth to access Tomtom Plus services (traffic for example) on my tomtom One.
I'm having identical issues with Tomtom Go 500. I rely on the tomtom for handsfree and texting in the car. Has anybody found a solution yet?

How to Remove the GPS static navigation ?

like the title, anyone know hot to remove the GPS static navigation? i use my jade and my old cruise most of the time in the citycenter by walk... in car i've already a navigator so i don't use my ppc gps...
anyone know nothing about that?
thx a lot for any kind of help
yes, need help too.
Thanks.
I used the navigator while walking and it worked fine.
I think, that GPS radio is off by default. It's turning on while running on a navigation software. In my navigation soft, I can turn GPS on/off manualy.
