So it is not working on G900 right? If not on G900 it won't work on p1 probably... Cuz I was about to get a bluetooth GPS adapter and I'm interested if it is going to work with my P1. Does someone have experience with P1 and BT GPS modules?

I've recently bought an HGE-100 GPS enabler and I'm having a hard time finding software for it. Besides Wayfinder (which I don't like) and Google maps, what other software can work with it? |

@strizlow800: It is working fine with G900 and Nav4all so I assume it also works with P1i. |

So is mgmaps compatible with it? because if it that is brilliant as that can let you store map tiles on your phone so it doesn't have to connect to the internet all the time
Also out of interest whats the quality of the GPS signal with it i mean does it work if youve got in your pocket or does it need to be out in the open?

Well, I just use it in my car and I never take it out cause I was hiding the cables as good as I could. I cannot imagine that it works when it is really covered, when I tried it out I had it stuck to my jacket.
When I tried it , Amaze did not recognize it, Nav4all does and MGMaps I have not tried yet. |

I just tried out MGMaps, like with Amaze it does not find it, only Nav4All works at the moment for me. Also Wayfinder used to work but it is not free.
If you really wanna walk around with it then go for a Bluetooth one. The cable is really long and even with the headset removed part of it hangs around. Makes you look like a Borg. |

Ok then thanks for the help, ill probably get a bluetooth one but do you think that the Tracker app would still work with a bluetooth one instead of a wired one |

Hmmm I have no idea, it should. But then again SE does only have built in GPS or this accessory, I would not be surprised if tracker does not scan for bluetooth ones. If I were you I'd ask in a new post, someone who has a Bluetooth one can try it.
If you only really want to have tracker: the big advantage of the HGE-100 is that it needs no charging, that's why I bought it in the first place. |

I know it's an old topic but some people are still searching for this 'Sony Ericssin tracker' -app, so here it is:
