Just a great app for your phone! You can choose from different maps like Yahoo, Microsoft, Google and Openstreetmap. The best thing: you can download the maps on your computer
I've just downloaded the latest beta version 1.42 and it works great with the internal gps and it's the only J2ME nav software that which works with offline stored maps. AND IT'S FREE!!!
Installed fine on BlackBerry Curve 8330 and worked fine, but the app disappeared, icon disappeared. I reinstalled it and the same thing happened, and I already checked the advanced options application and it wasn't there. I think the BlackBerry maps is the culprit. I had this installed on my old Samsung M520 and it worked great.
Actually it's Google Maps for mobile, it uninstalls MGMaps! See the MGMaps forum at http://forum.mgmaps.com for more details and possible workarounds.
Bold 9000: download, install all ok. Operation is slow or sluggish. Seems to perform as indicated. I will keep loaded and see if there are some settings that may optimize application response. Rating 5 due to speed.
this is a great program, this is the first program i have installed that has a internet connection that gave me the option to grant it full permission for internet connection (not even opera mini does that)
I tried google maps firs,t but didn't like the fact that I had to be online to view the maps. GMaps offers an offline mode and I found that quite usefull. You can download maps, copy them to your mobile phone and view them without having a internet connection. (I formated my memory card to fat32 so the maps use less storage).
great application. only problem after scrolling through map/s my phone tells me Error Of Memory/..., I admit nokia 6300 has only a small phone memory, however the application runs from my 2gb memory card extension. can you help?
There's an option Low Memory in Settings/Map Browsing, enable that and the application will no longer crash. The 6300 and all Nokia Series 40 phones have only 2MB of "RAM" memory (heap memory) available for Java applications.
I tried one of the older versions and it wouldnt work at all so I deleted and reinstalled this version. It works much better than the previous version, however, its still is a little slow and it displays some parts and leaves adjacent tiles blank. Its also crashed on my phone a couple of times. Other than that it works fairly decently.
this version is even better!!!
The program works fine, but you should know that it is not true that you can use it without internet connection with preloaded maps. In its main page it says you can but when you try you will see such feature does not exists, and then in the FAQs it clearly says you CAN NOT download the maps as they are copyrighted. So this part of their promo (of GMAPS) IS FALSE!
Please visit the forum at http://forum.mgmaps.com/viewtopic.php?t=725 to learn how to pre-download maps and use the software without an internet connection.
