    Well I did it. I loaded bbmaps on my 8310. Pretty cool stuff. It is a shame that att attempts to block us from using bbmaps. It is not the fastest or best navigator out there, but it is free, and it uses the gps built in the 8310. It beat paying $10/month for telecrapigator.

    That's why there's also Google Maps, which is also free.

    Yes, BBmaps is nice, so is Google Maps, and Nav4all, both also free. Of course, TeleNav is the best with all features.

    are BBMaps and Google Maps step-by-step GPS apps (update automatically with each turn)? Kinda like how a Garmin or normal GPS device works?

    Yes and no. Yes, you can get directions, and you can see where you are on the map, but there is no audio, and if you happen to get off of the route, there is no auto-rerouting with BB Maps or Google Maps. You will need something like Telenav for that. That's what I use, and it is well worth it if you rely upon your GPS to get around.

    Strange. I never cared much for BB Maps and much prefer google maps. I never even noticed that the icon is missing from my phone.

    I think BBMaps is more accurate in narrowing your location down, at least from the last time I used it which was on my 8700c.

    For looking up places and satellite views of where I am, I like Google Maps.

    For directions while driving, BB Maps is easier to use and follow.

    I think Google maps has much nicer looking maps. I also like the satellite view feature. As others have mentioned, BB maps is better for navigating purposes, but thats why I have a Pioneer with navi in my car

    PS - ShadowFox, BB Maps doesn't work on my 8310 with 4.5.0.42 either.
