LIVE TEST: Google Maps + GPS on T-Mobile WING / HTC Herald, w/ iFonz, S2U2, 6.1. Gmail on Opera Mini
→→ LINKS to Software. Finger-navigation + Google Maps + GPS & driving directions using T-Mobile WING. Other finger-touch friendly apps developed & tweeked by XDA-Developers at http://forums.xda-developers.com .
==================================
PLEASE RATE THIS VIDEO.
It will make it easier for others to find. Thank you.
===============================
WHERE TO GET ALL THE SOFTWARE I HAVE ON MY WING (HTC Herald):
AT THIS LINK BELOW is a posting I made over at XDA forums. At the bottom of the post is my SIG FILE. All the additional WM software I use is linked to from this sigfile.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2917394&postcount=564
That includes the “PCM KEYBOARD” Application that gives you an iphone-like touchscreen keyboard on your Windows Mobile phone.
==========================
→→→→ PLEASE READ: IMPT
This is a PREVIEW VIDEO only, which is showing what you can do very easily on your Wing. BUT — the initial SOFTWARE INSTALLATIONS ARE NOT YET CONSUMER-FRIENDLY.
I am planning a series of specific-detailed videos that will walk you step by step how to do the software installations that enable some of these functions. Until then, →→ just know that your WING is not obsolete. Far from it! It has a full sliding keyboard, shoots video, does MMS messages — 3 things the iphone can’t even do at all yet.
FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO READ UP ON HOW TO DO these OS Installation upgrades, go to the bottom of this posting.
==================================
BUT YOU CAN RUN “GOOGLE MAPS” right now, on the standard-issued T-Mobile/Windows Mobile software. No prob at all !
TO RUN IFONZ APPLICATION LAUNCHER, you also do not have to modify your phone. It is just software that runs on your standard Wing.

HOW TO MODIFY YOUR WING TO RUN MUCH
FASTER, and enable some great additional features that T-Mobile simply doesn’t bother to install onto these great phones, then read on. And do me a favor, RATE-UP this video. It matters. Thanks
=====================================
1. In USA this phone, the WING, is offered by T-Mobile. The phone is actually designed & manufactured by HTC — the same company that has made the first G-phone running Android, Google’s new phone Operating System.
In Europe and Asia and elsewhere, THIS PHONE is called the “HTC Herald” .
2) So, start by going to the Overview wiki page for the HTC Herald, here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Herald
IT IS YOUR STARTING POINT.
3) This link is the TOP-LEVEL page for all XDA Forums pertaining to this phone model”: The wiki has distilled knowledge; whereas the forums have ongoing discussions. NOTE: The people there are very technically sophisticated. They WILL help newcomers, but …. they get really testy if you don’t bother to use SEARCH, or read FAQ’s about the specific phone. SO if you want help, you have to invest by reading some of the Overview info.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=348
4) SEARCH THE XDA-DEVELOPERS SITE:
http://tinyurl.com/XDAwing
5) Here is just a partial list of terms you will encounter. If you don’t recognize them right off the bat, then don’t invest time in modifying your WING — yet — unless you read up on each term. I wish it weren’t this complicated. And that’s one of my goals: To make this easy — when following along very detailed VIDEOS.
RUU – means ROM Upgrade Utility
HardSPL
SoftSPL
Radio Rom
ROM — this is the installation piece of software that contains an optimized OS plus streamlined applications that work with finger-navigation vs just-stylus.
