AT&T Cell Phones Blog

I have the AT&T HTC Tilt 2 , and  I use the Garmin Mobile XT on my tilt2 phone, I think the Mobile XT is the best GPS appliaction for my AT&T Tilt2. As so far it works great for me, and there is any problem with it. Especially it’s FREE and no data consumption.

The Garmin Mobile XT features:

• Google Local Search gives you access to points of interest near your current location and enables you to navigate directly to the destination
• Get spoken turn-by-turn directions with coverage of North America and nearly 6 million points of interest
• Includes Garmin Online — you’ll have access to weather data, traffic information, current fuel prices, flight status and more. AT&T Cell phone Software

7. Install all three Garmin Mobile XT, Support files and Free basemap one by one with the same procedure. 8. Disconnect your mobile phone from the PC and see your mobile phone for new application installation process.

Adding GPS Map files to your Garmin Mobile XT

Now that we’re all set with the application, it’s time to install GPS map files to your mobile phone. In my case, I use MalsingMaps Malaysia and Singapore map. You need to download the installer files to your PC first, and it is available here:

• MalsingMaps Malaysia and Singapore map (MFM) : Download (at the moment: MFM v1.60)
• MelsingMaps Malaysia and Singapore Topo map (MFM-SRTM) : Download (at the moment:  MFM-SRTM v1.02)

Now that you’ve downloaded both these files. Reconnect your mobile phone back to your PC with USB cable. This time, I will not going to connect my phone via ‘ActiveSync’, but connect via ‘Mass Storage’. On your mobile phone, go ‘Start > Settings > Connection > USB connection’ and choose ‘Mass Storage’. Now connect it to the computer.

Open up the downloaded files on your PC by double clicking the MFM map installer file. Then repeat the installation process to install the MFM-SRTM topo map.

Hope it works for you! If you still do not understand the instructions above, leave your question! Or you have other better GPS app than the Garmin Mobile XT, share them here! thanks!
