hey all

I've got a few questions regarding using GPS on my SE K810i. It is to my understanding that I need a gps bluetooth receiver for it to work? And then I will also need a GPS software for my phone. Well, I've gotten as far as running the .jad file on my phone and installing the software, but what is the .jar file for? Is it an alternative?

Also, I don't have a data plan for my phone subscription, so I'd like a software that is easy to use and perhaps I can store maps in my media card. I've read about TrekBuddy, but I'd prefer not having to create my own maps, as it seems I'll have to do.

But anyway, is this all I will need? A GPS bluetooth receiver and a GPS software?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I looked at the links in that thread as well.

But I didn't really see any actual solution as to what I'm looking for, which is:

GPS software with maps that do not require connection to the internet

maps of the US premade

actual realtime GPS position functionality

and perhaps turn by turn directions

Thanks
