Nokia 5800 - Part 2

[dvpro]

harlo sifu..

i m new to 5800.. my wife just bought one unit with map loaded.
Is there any discussion thread about how to update the map on 5800?

i have the Nuvi but i'm not too sure if the method is the same. I also want to load in the custom POI if it can load in.

If the navigation software installed is Garmin Mobile XT, the method is similar to a Nuvi (also pls read up on this topic: MFM Map Installation Step by Step Guide). As for detailed IMG map naming, GMXT data card can recognize GMAPSUPP.IMG, GMAPPROM.IMG and GMAPSUP2.IMG.

Also similarly like Nuvi, GMXT can support Custom POIs too. Get the latest compiled Custom POIs installer from this link: Free Malaysia Garmin Custom POI: MFM-CPOI v2.04 (27/08/09)

hello all, would appreciate if someone can advise me on this

isn't normal when we first access to View Map, the map shown is Europe Map? I already do the setting right, eg Positioning Method = AGPS & Integrated GPS, Remote GPS = Assisted/Built-In......but i can't lock on to the satelite, wait for a very long time ald

same here. I think is normal until it get the satellite signal lock and know our location, then should change to our location map.

Got my new Nokia 5800 couple days back. I have a problem transfering my fav locations to 5800 (SymbianS603rdEdition_50050) from mapsource (6.15.6).
Have no problem between my HTC Diamond 2(WindowsMobile_50020w)
Each time I do the transfer, nothing happens at 5800 but on mapsource, transfer is completed.
Searched but not able to find a solution to problem.
Have tried copying the file GARMIN_WPT.NVM and CURRENT.GPX directly but no avail.
Any sugguestion?

Just re-enter your Favorite Locations in the N5800
