Hi,I want to know where the GPS data in E63 is stored?

What do you mean? Do you expect to find a file you could access and read/copy that contains stored/accumulated GPS data? If so, then there is no such file.

If your goal is something else, please explain.

In general, the GPS receiver gets its current position info from the GPS satellites and there is an application programming interface (API) to retrieve it. The software that gets the location info from the GPS receiver may, in addition, complement the data with network-based info, and then returns the location info to the calling application who needs to know. Then the next moment the position is calculated again.

Applications can use the value to show a location on the map, or save the current location to a photo to record where it was taken, etc. Applications could also log/save the location over a period of time, but as far as I know, the phone has no such built-in applications, so you'd have to find and install such an app yourself (or create/develop one, if you have the skills or decide to learn).

So, at most, one could say that the GPS data is stored temporarily in the phone memory, but lost if no applications read the data and use it for something.

Thanks for your response.Actually I want to know about the accessibility of the data(in phone memory or the card) while I am using the mobile with a Bluetooth GPS receiver.

I would suggest downloading and installing the application GPSInfoQt from the OVI store. It's free and works extremely well, producing a lot of information such as position, speed, altitude, number of satellites and their signal strengths, satellite time and horizontal and vertical accuracy.
