Garmin Mobile XT In Your Car

[angrysnail]

1) How do you connect ur phone gps with the dvd screen?
2) As far as Ive tested, phone gps receivers are low sensitivity a.k.s slowpoke.. (when u need them to save ur life on a rush time, ull be very dead)
3) yes maps are free, BUT when u use the navigation.. they would want you to pay. Am I right? (Tried this with the OEM nokia maps)

All ur question have been answered b4 in this thread..pls browse it..thanx bro..

question - this free gps is it hard to get signal sometime?

it depends on your location...if in a car with vkool=difficult...under a bridge/basement = difficult.

in open space...=not difficult.its not because its free or not.depends on your signal and device.not software.

turn on A-GPS (if your phone and telco-plan support it), my experience is that I can get the GPS position in less than 15 secs and GARMIN voice pop-up before my eletronic door gate fully open. Again, telco will charge you data cost. it also depends on your location.

my worst experience with turning off A-GPS is waited at the road side for 15 mins, waiting for sufficient GPS signal to plan for re-route.

in theory, your device need to get signal from at least 3 satellite to provide a basic GPS location (trigonometric and math), of course, the more satellite signal your device received, the calculation will provide much better and accurate position (according to Nokia Map, my E71 can receive 5-6 satellite signal at Jalan Perak, and barely 2-3 at Jalan Raja Chulan sometime.)

A-GPS basically utilise your telco nearest communication tower to feed-in additional location data (just like fake satellite signal if you want to call it), which speed-up the GPS position calculation much more faster.

My advise is you only turn on the A-GPS if you have unlimited data plan with your telco or you are on a rush.


Anyone using Windows Mobile (Omnia for my friend case) are lucky, you can download a software to help your device to grab your position even before you start GARMIN.

just sharing my experience

BlackSamurai,
Both numbers did not work :(
I just realized, there are 3 sets of numbers there.
IMEI, IMSI and Card ID.
Tried generating keys with all 3 codes but still failed.

Bro,

I downloaded the file, unzipped it and double clicked on "GarminMobileXTforSymbianS603rdEdition_50040.exe" and clicked 'setup' then nothing happened

I also tried unzipped it and double clicked on 'setup.exe' but also nothing happened.

Why ah? I got my 5800XM connected as mass storage
But I used windows 2000 :). 2000 cannot, meh?

Hi Kengster...

After you clicked teh setup, you will see the files copying into your memory card. ( you need to choose memory card for the installation location).

Then, disconnect your phone from cable.
Go to phone menu, files manager, and look for GarminmobileXT.sis, and double click on it.
Then follows the phone instruction until you finish installing the Garmin mobile into your 5800.

Next, follow all the instruction to get your Garmin unlock.

Happy trying!
