The display will tell you the number of satellites it can reach and your location. Go to Options -> Advanced Options -> GPS -> select the menu and choose “Refresh GPS”. Free Google Maps works great with the integrated GPS and here is how I got it to work:ġ) Make sure that the GPS is working and has connection to satellites. I guess that’s not surprising since RIM does not advertise this feature, pushing instead the paid for maps and direction service from TeleNav. I noticed on Internet forums that a number of people have challenges using the GPS with Google Maps. The key new feature of the 8310 however is the integrated GPS. Unlike older phones it does not require you to record all names, but it uses speech recognition on your existing address book. I spend about an hour to customize it to my needs. Last week I upgraded my 2 year old Blackberry to the latest BlackBerry Curve 8310.
