My C905 won't work with Google Maps via GPS. Also, my geo-tagging won't work with the photos. I've been told that's down to O2 - but not sure if that's true.

Yes it true, you might try upgrade using USB data if still not work, bring to SE service center, they will do it for you.

This is absolutely true.
I have the generic SE firmware on my c905, which includes the google maps software.. v2.0.0 (#2019), the GPS on this version works perfectly, down to around 10m. This version however has old style menus and search and does not support streetview. So I downloaded the latest google maps from m.google.com/maps from here you can install v.2.3.2 (#2375) which installs separately in that it doesn't overwrite v2.0.0 but on this one the GPS does not function at all, it only uses GPRS triangulation, however it has modern menus and streetview works brilliantly.
There is no logical answer to this apart from to wait for a new version which should update automatically at somepoint in the future, for now I use both.
I'm sure you could find a jar of v2.0.0 on the internet somewhere, which is the generic version installed on the latest c905 firmware.

hey mate. Just got the C905 too. Mine tells me accurate to 2700m, and I am inside my house. Do you need 3G or WIFI for GPS or? I have GOOGLEMAPS V.2.3.1
