So, I have the dreaded Telus model where these bastards pretty much 'turned - off' the GPS rendering it useless to BBmaps or Gmaps. The only way to make it work is to apparently DOWNLOAD their friggin 3rd party Navigation program and PAY for service.
I have read in here that I should download their software and use the one month trial to get the GPS activated. Then, once BBmaps or Gmaps is working, I should cancel the free month and voila the GPS should continue to work indefinitely.
I have 2 questions:
1) can and will the GPS continue to function on Gmaps after the 1 month trial
2) Can I delete the teus NAV software OR will doing so remove the 'key' that tuirns on the GPS on the unit?
Please help me!
Thanks in advance
Steve

Okay.... I finally got it to work by installing the Telus Navigator software AND starting the subscription service. Once I did that, all of the GPS software worked. Gmaps, BB maps, etc.
So, my next question is, can I now end my subscription and delete Telus Navigator? Will the GPS still work? I have read in here that you can do this and everything should still work. Can someone in the know please chime in and let me know if this is true?
