Garmin Mobile XT for Symbian

I told you it can be impossible to lock on when your tint is metallic like Vkool... How do you expect the satellite signal to penetrate when the tint acts as a shield (Faraday shield) when you cover up your car... After you have log on it will 'continued' to function.... crossed your fingers that it doesn't loose the signal in a concrete jungle like KL.... You have these choices...

1) Remove and install a tint that is non metallic
2) Cut a hole in your tint to allow the antenna to receive the signals
3) Use an external antenna

Hope this helps.... cheers!

everything seam work fine with N95 8G

everything is fine too with N95, but user here want to make their GPS more efficient.. the 8g also use same GPS chip as the usual n95.

Noticed when approaching roundabout, also in the top left corner is shows the round about however , it shows the driving direction to the right but should of-course from the left.

Does anyboy else has seen this issue?

yeah.. seen that on GMXT. what device/software u use? maybe it's for left-hand drive format.
anyway, it's just the symbol, the actual route is to the left, so it's no issue for me

Thanks for your reply , I am using NOKIA N95 -3 (US Version), Installed Garmin 5.00.10s60.9. TW, all works 100% , with of-course the latest Malfreemaps 1.22 . Just one minor issue is left is in the route settings, in TOOLS -> Setting -> Routing -> Route Preference Priority to HWY-1 and HWY- 3 , have no idea what kind of impact that has on navigating .

Regards Robert

Can your N95 8G use an external antenna? My N95 (non 8G) doesn't have an external jack for plugging in an antenna. I think your choice is limited to the first 2 suggestions.

Have anyone experience while nagivating, GMXT (v5) just shuts down. I have to reopen it but funny thing is the route is still active? Sometimes, the device cannot get a lock at all the whole day? Having said this,

a) Do I need to reinstall the program?
b) Will window tinting affect the reception?
c) In N95, they have an integrated GPS & assisted GPS? Is there any preference over the other? I tried both but it seems the same.

Thanks.

It happened to me too,in I did try the latest version (v5.00.10) also causing some issue. No doubt the interface of version 5 is very cool and user friendly but seems the old v4.20.20 is more stable.
