QUOTE(Optiplex330 @ Nov 10 2011, 11:02 AM) You may find it hard to believe but I have seen housing estate that has been in existence for past 20 years that is still not being shown on Malfreemaps but was shown on Nokia Maps. So there are flaws in all maps. Generally speaking, the bigger cities you go to, the better the maps so unless you want to Long Lama, Nokia Maps are useable. where's the exact location? need to feedback to MalFreeMaps forum |

QUOTE(Optiplex330 @ Nov 11 2011, 02:08 PM) 2. Whether it's set to AGPS iPhone4 uses AGPS? I dun think so, but I may be wrong.  iPhone4 locks in the sat signal very fast. - less than 30sec. Currently I'm using PAPAGO!M8.2.0. This version is so much better. No more that cheong hei 'at the intersection' this 'at the intersection' that! But I can't get use to the ang mor voice of pronouncing our road names 'turn left at Gel Ann EM Tee Eskine!  (Turn left at Jalan Mt. Eskine) This post has been edited by DarkNite: Dec 3 2011, 07:24 PM |

I agree. Using iphone 4 with papago M8. Lock very fast. Retired my Garmin Nuvi 255(gave to my wife).
But my iphone got very hot and the backlight will be turned off (after few minutes) if I enable "recorder ON".. Anybody here experience the same thing? If I enable recorder ON, where is the recorded video file?

Is there anyone here know how to update the MFM map on the non-jailbroken iphone for Papago? I did a search here but seems like the link is already invalid.

Tried out Waze on my 4S, awesome, lol it diverted me away from a jam because some Waze user there flag the route as "standstill traffic" so I used an alternative route  |

QUOTE(Optiplex330 @ Nov 11 2011, 10:05 AM) I have only ever used Nokia Maps and Garmin (running Malfreemaps) so I know the later had surprised me when part of a 20+ yrs old housing estate road was missing but shown on Nokia map. On POIs. Yes, Malfreemaps has a much more comprehensive database but on a phone with slow processor like the typical Nokia, the redrawing is so slow as to be a pain in the back side. Nokia's problem, not Malfreemap's. Nokia Maps saving grace is free worldwide maps ranging from Argentina to Zimbabwe and all for free. On the other hand, Nokia's maps are so much easier clearer to read. All those colors on the Malfreemaps give me headache. Well I would love you to show us first hand just where exactly that place is. MFM is not perfect but I'm 100% sure it covers Malaysia 100% better than say nokia maps |

If I gave it to you, then people will know where I stay. Can't do that. But like you yourself said, nothing is 100% so why should you be surprised if it misses some road? And I was told MFM tends to miss some of the very old housing estate roads. |

Fine it's your rights anyway, but I don't have any problem showing my own housing area in Bangi. It's not like I'm pinpointing my exact house along with the house number and car plate no. anyway  Here it is: That rounded area supposed to be packed with rows of houses for..years  |
