Re: Is there any way to get around paying for GPS on Sprint?

If you want turn by turn, check out Waze (http://www.waze.com/download_usa/wm_symbian_download/, or http://m.waze.com/ from your phone). It has turn by turn, and is free (at least for now). It even does voice prompts in the latest beta, but sometimes the routing fails or gets a little off. Could be a good product to watch, though.

I've found that if I start the older version, it asks me to subscribe for a monthly fee. If I start the newer version, everything works as normal. So you may just need to update your shortcuts.

Where can you get the update at?

Great app, but makes my phone virtually unusable, so slow.

As stated before Sprint Nav is free for the data plans. Contact Sprint. Personally I use the unbranded Sprint Nav (Telenav)
