Google Maps
Can anyone confirm that google maps works on this phone, and that google maps can pinpoint your current location.
Thanks.
...
i dont see why not. i have the mogul and it works on mine. i just downloaded from a 3rd party app. i tested it out turning on gps and it works EXTREMLY fast. dOT ACTUALLY MOVED WITH ME WHILE I DROVE. PRETTY COOL. DOT MOVES A LIL BIT EVEN WHEN IM MOVING AROUND IN MY HOUSE. :0)
...
Just trying to confirm that Sprint doesn't block the functionality.

just make sure you have a data package so you wont get charge for data transfer. ive heard you can get it at google.com i actually got mine an accident. its a pretty cool feature. good luck. 😁

Why does anyone need Google Maps when Sprint Navigation is so much better anyway
...
Probably because it is not free if not included in plan.
I was able to run Navigon 6 on Mogul and Touch with preloaded maps. Will try it on Diamond when I get it.

not really. i had sprint nav and it never picked up my location when i was driving or even when i stood still. it would say that my location was being blocked or something and i would be outside no buildings no tress. google maps picked up my location while driving 75 on highway and i would cut off gps dot would stay still and in about 5-10 sec i would cut it on and the dot would INSTINTLY jump to where i was on the map.

It works and will pin point your location. Just be sure that when you open it up that you hit menu and select "use phone GPS" and you'll be fine.
It is pretty accurate and looks great on the phone.
