Default please someone provide step by step guide to use the GPS

Hey guys

I know I posted this before asking for help with the GPS

I live in Israel, I really wish to have a working GPS to use in Israel

How can I do that, I have used the age of beauty from Thaihugo.

After that I am stuck, since I don't know how to set it up, or what to use as software. Please someone I would really appreciate if someone writes a step by step guide on how to use the GPS on the shift. And how can I have a GPS on the Vista side

I am a newbie and I rely on you guys to learn, so far from this forum, I learned how to hardspl, and install custom roms. BUT the GPS from me is a different story it is so complicated for me to look for threads to that, so please I need a step by step guide

Thanks

Default try this

HI if you want a real good basic gps program try BeeLine GPS. Its only a small app and it works great on the shift. http://www.visualgps.net/BeeLineGPS/default.htm

If you want a gps Nav, you need maps and at this stage it a "no go" because there in not enough storage on wm( no sd yet)

DONATE TO ME
The first or second post of Thaihugo's Age of Beauty Rom tells you how to connect GPS from WinMo to Vista side. You definitely need to follow the link, download the Windows software, install it and set up as per that website's instructions to get it working though.

I've done it and it seems to work fine and seems easier than GPSgate (which you also have to pay for whereas the one in the ROM is free)

I know it seems like an uphill battle, but honestly, really do read the forum as all the info is there
