Hi all - hope you can help, have been having some GPS issues on my new Touch Diamond (http://www.mypocketpcmobile.com/FullReviewHTCTouchDiamond/tabid/247/Default.aspx)

1/ I keep downloading "Quick GPS" but nothing seems to happen after the download?
2/ Using the GPS - where I can see the maps?

Any form of help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Thanks!
Pete

Welcome to the forum, the qGPS you are downloading is a small file that contains data used by the GPS receiver to work out where it is thus speeding up the time it takes to achieve a position fix. It isn't needed if you use the device with GPS enabled on a regular basis - I stopped bothering downloading this qGPS data over 18 months ago

To see some mapping data on the device will require you to add an application (software) and possibly a map, there is also the option for the device to download the map to the device over the air.
If you go for an application that does download over the air make sure you have inclusive data (GPRS) within your tariff.
If you decide on an application where the map is stored on the device such as I-Go, McGuider, Navigon, Route 66 you need to make sure the application will activate correctly as your phone doesn't have a memory card - check this BEFORE you purchase any application. You can download Navigon and use it free for by clicking Here and you get to use the free trial for 30 days - Mike
