QUOTE(cute_boboi @ Mar 5 2012, 05:46 PM) Results or reason ? is reason la .. haha  It depends whether you want an integrated GPS app in your phone, or you prefer standalone dedicated GPS. Both have pros and cons. But, if you are very good with roads and can go everywhere without ever looking at maps or asking for directions, then you don't need GPS   -- then i dont need la .. i thought can use GPS to detect police |

QUOTE(XiuKeong @ Mar 6 2012, 02:39 AM) I think it will be weird hearing ang moh speaking our road name. Probably more confusing than distance Not really. It is safer than you squinting your eyes trying to look the tiny 4" screen for road names whilst driving. |

Probably more confusing than distance It's not that weird, same as an ang-moh asking for directions / road names in KL.CODE Turn left/right into Jae-lane Tune Rae-zack  |

Then i think GPS apps is for travellers or city new comers. Say if I stay in KL for many years, I don't think I need GPS apps to find a place. If really necessary, I can simply use Apple Map to spot a place.
And look at the Papago file size ... it's more than 300 Mb ... what a memory leech  This post has been edited by work_tgr: Mar 6 2012, 11:24 AM |

Hi, I really need help in installing MFM map to Garmin USA Version. This is what I did, change gmapsupp to gmapprom and transfer to ../storage-usa/.system. Change the permission correctly. Open Garmin, map loaded correctly. However, I've encountered the following problem
1. When searching address, the app crashes and bring me back to springboard 2. No voice navigation. No audio data found when go into setting, audit & display, navigation voice, it show "none" Any advise would be very much appreciated. Thanks |
