i also got this phone, i want to buy the HGE-100 GPS Enabler but im not sure about the software, is there a navigation software with the HGE-100? Or are there any free Software to download?
I just got this one (P1i) ...and I was wondering if I could use the GPS function without connecting to the Internet? Otherwise it's just not worthed ... (using this in my car and paying for it)!
PS: I really don't know much about those stuff ... so be nice }X)
I have P1i an I am not using Wayfinder for GPS because it recuires internet conn.. so i installed TOM TOM, it doesnt need internet, it is free. there is also GARMIN, both are great... of coursd you need gps receiver, it comes with your mobile device
Hello. Could you please inform me, from where, and how did you install TOM TOM on your p1i. I am having trouble with installing applications on this phone. I would be very thankful if you could help me. Thanks for now!

This is not the real P1's funtion. He is just using external GPS Tomtom through Bluetooth Phone. It means you shuld buy GPS device seperately. Samsung or Nokia is better. This dosen't has even built-in GSP reciever. Sony products usually has less features and lower Technology comparing with other brands. Only stupit idiots who does not have any knowledge about Elec-devices thinks sony shuld be better because brend name looks better and expencive. Be smart!
You clairly are so insecure with your phone that u watch sony ericsson videos in action just to comment and put down its features to make you crappy phone look better...
Why don´t you have a look at SonyEricssons latest device, Xperia X1, and compare it with todays smartphones... Have a look through the technical specifications as well before you presuppose that S/E has "lower technology" comparing to other brands... Peace!
hi there djbjesni! I just want to know what firmware should I use to install tomtom 6.. My firmware is GW1 R9K009 but it fails to install even on my older firmware RJ005
Guys I'm not a very tech person so I need your help. I have bought P1i and I need to know how GPS Navigation works? I know in N95 it just works without installing and having internet connections. So how would it work in P1i
Hi i'm from greece.Can someone tell me if that program(wayfinder navigator 7) needs an internet connection to work? i have instal the program, it opens but it doesn't work!
It needs an internet connection because it download the maps by GPRS. But the firs time you install wayfinder i think it has to register and that´s probably why it didn´t work for you. Contact your operator to setup your p1i for GPRS. Good luck.
you get both receiver and software from the box??? how come i don't i hav that wayfinder navigator 7 sticker on the box but don't hav what you hav, but do this cost money lik to your monthly phone bill??
I think actually the software ad GPS reciever vary in what country you buy it. I´ve heard aswell that the GPS reciever was a kind of goodwill from sony/e just for the firt set of p1i. But it still comes with it here in Sweden if you go buy one today so I don´t really know. But obviously you didn´t get one then. Be sure to ask the retailer before buying it.
And yes you pay data-trafic cost for downloading the maps by GPRS.
to zebric: that is because it does not have an internal gps receiver. you'll have to buy that. They do mention that it has several applications installed on the memorycard. One of them is Wayfinder 7.
You get a bluetooth GPS reciever with the Wayfinder 7 software in the package. Anyway with the first set of P1i released. Otherwise any bluetooth phone works with this bluetooth-GPS and software.
