            I am gonna throw my computer. Ok windows vista can not find this anywhere. I have done this on two other phones (old pc) with out a problem but i can not find this

            7. Open Windows Explorer
            and select your GPS.
            In the directory Garmin, delete gmapprom.img or gmapsupp.img
            (should be about a 1 GB file).
            You can backup this file first in case something goes wrong.

            please help thanks

                Sprint Nav is nice, but like GoogleMaps or Bing, it requires a data signal AND GPS reception to work. Go to an area with no data & you just lost your map.

                Garmin, Tom Tom & the like store the maps on your device. All you need is GPS reception & you're good.


                Sprint Nav is a much smaller app with fewer features. As far as navigating goes, generally, you won't really miss those features because they'll be duplicated in other apps on your phone. But, it's still nice to have all the goodies in one spot.


                A plus for Sprint Nav, Bing, & GoogleMaps is that their maps are constantly being updated automatically. For updated Garmin maps, you have to go through the map updating process, which we have made perfectly clear isn't so simple.


                I've used both types of nav software extensively, and both have their pluses. For me, though, while I keep Garmin on my Touch Pro, if I had to do with only one, I'd go with Bing. The maps for the Atlanta, GA area are more up to date and more thorough than any of the others... Might be different in your area, of course.

                  garmin simply is better cause it has commercial routing. i use it daily...as far as updating after downloading takes me 1hr to completely update.. the only time i spend is pressing yes overwrite.lol so like aminute is interactive...and as far as getting the update....spj knows im on it...i usually update within first few week if not days of a leak.

                    Well, with all due respect, it's better for you since it has commercial routing. For folks who don't need that, the feature is useless.

                    That being said, I think Garmin blows Sprint Nav out of the water. I wasn't trying to say Sprint Nav was better... just clarifying for iTouch24 some of the differences.

                    If I were to have only one of each TYPE of GPS (that being constant connection like GoogleMaps/Bing or maps based like Garmin,) I'd have Bing & Garmin. I could go into why I like Garmin over Tom Tom & iGo, but that'd be a mouthful.

                          if you right click the file goto properties/ compatibility tab the check the box for compatibility and choose run as xp.

                          but i've never had a problem running any garmin programs in xp, vista, or 7.

                            i think we may be missunderstanding each other I can not find the files we are supposed to delete, In the directory Garmin, delete gmapprom.img or gmapsupp.img I can not find those files I searched for them the only thing that showed up was the .rar files on my desktop from the download 22 files.

                              hahaha dude I so remember those days.


                              the file you need to delete is on your phone and its gmapsupp.img but with the map from the other thread, just rename the new map to gmapsupp.img and drop it in the garmin folder on your phone select yes to overwrite.
