Hi Bro Wsian,
as mention on Q2, I thought MSM NT 2011.40 & City Navigator 2011.40 have both JVC itself ( SGMYMAL.JCV & SgMyNav.JCV). If it is shared means I can remove or delete away the SGMYMAL.JCV. Please advice. Thanks

Sorry but I have a super-noob question *embarassed*.

I just installed MSM 2012 NT 5.58 on my nuvi 2460LMT. But I seem to have problems with searching for addresses . For example, a typical address search would go through the following steps:

1. Select City (country is already Singapore)
2. Enter building number (e.g. 123)
3. Enter road name (e.g. ABC Road)

Then the search result is shown - with the complete address (123 ABC Road) shown. But in my case, only "ABC Road" is shown . Very often at a totally wrong end of the road - resulting in an unusable route

I hope the problem lies with me & not the unit, as I bought it from the US .

I think Mappers have already started to do Street numbering in certain areas but it takes time to do the whole
country. For the moment, try to leave out the Street No. in your search. Wrong end of the street is still better
than wrong end of the country

So you mean to say, there is nothing wrong with the device or the way I am using it? Just that there is a lot of work to be done & street numbering is one of them?

Unlike a commercial entity, this is a "hobby" site so we only do things in our spare time. So project is ongoing .....

I have no problem with that... just wanted to make sure I didn't end up with a lemon :P.

Hello,

Please help.

I have a Garmin Nuvi 765 bought from France. I would like to install the Malaysia map temporarily.

I have downloaded the MSM NT 5.58V map. As my computer does not have a SD card slot, I extrated the file to the SD card which is put directly into the Garmin unit.

Now I see the extracted file as gmapsupp.img. There's a file with the same name exists in the Garmin memory. Do I overwrite from the PC or from the GPS unit? And if I do, will it erase the French map?

Hoping for a prompt reply as I need to use the GPS ASAP...

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
C

Sorry, I have not done this before and I am so afraid of losing the French map.

But how do you update maps? Do you mean copy the file from the SD card and replace the file in the Garmin memory?

Right now each gmapsupp.img(s) are in individual memory (SD card and Garmin unit) and there's still no Malaysia map.

Do I have to program my SD card as it was an SD card for photo?

Download our latest weekly released map from this link ( V5.58 ) : viewtopic.php?p=199752#p199752

Unzip the map file, gmapsupp.img.
Go buy a SD card.
Create a sub folder /garmin
Copy this map file gmapsupp.img into the sub folder/garmin
Plug SD card into your Nuvi.
Enjoy.
