Doing the rename of
rename MapAniPOI.psu -> MapAniPOI.psz rename Papago.dbp -> papago.dbp rename standard.mb6 -> Standard.mb6 I am not using the Taiwan ver.. Not sure is it the same.. QUOTE(red-queen @ Feb 9 2010, 03:06 PM) follow the steps that i have posted. you need to edit 3 files because when you install the ver 100203 maps, it's actually for android. so you need to rename 3 file names. i've posted the detailed steps already.  Added on February 9, 2010, 3:32 pmOk.. Done.. How to use it for NAVIGATION.. I launch the app. Click the ROAD SEARCH. I which to key in the address such as 199, Jalan PP19/19 Taman. Then, i am stuck.. No more space for entering the address. Like that how to Navigate? If i continue with Search. The from the top it return result Matched 199, Jalan PP19/19, Taman.. And the click is light blue in color.. Tat is all.. I can only click BACK button..   This post has been edited by sugen: Feb 9 2010, 03:32 PM |

Great ! Thanks & it works now.. Ok, my problem solved by reinstalled the app & re-update the map. Now our Iphone is a TRUE GPS navigation device with the malfreemaps... TomTom/ Sygic and others.. we can forget about it.. To me the most important thing is the map...Somemore got Junction view !!! Thanks Papago & malfreemaps.. Yahoo
QUOTE(red-queen @ Feb 10 2010, 12:32 AM) yes, i also cannot type the full address. so i just search by road name. cannot put like the house number or lot number. once you're in that screen, just click on that road and then on the next screen, click on a Go! button and it will automatically start the routing. Added on February 10, 2010, 12:34 am doesn't matter if yours is taiwan, my/sg, bangla, or china version. you still need to rename the file because .psu if im not mistaken it is for Android, hence you need to change it to .psz which is ppg format. as for the papago.dbp and standard.mb6, it's just about the caps and no caps because Unix base OS is case sensitive. |

no problem la.. As long as they have a complete map.. that it stuns already..
QUOTE(mmmbop @ Feb 10 2010, 10:52 AM) The M6 does not support full address search. Even X5 doesn't as well. Hope further update will give more features and pretty please..fix the UI lag..really doesn't suit the smoothness of iPhone capacitive screen Update: I have X5 which also uses MfM and it seems the map database in X5 is even newer than M6. While Papago does not support full address function like garmin, road search is available. And in my case, a specific road name that I wish to go appeared in X5 but not in M6. So it all boils down on the database, not the apps itself. |

Bro,
Papago uses Malfreemaps... So, is a must to buy.. Why? Tomtom/Sygic and others.. their app is good.. but they don't have a complete malaysia map.. and they only cover 40% map of malaysia.. And most of it is outdated.. If you heard about malsingmaps or malfreemaps.. They r so far the MOST update/complete map cover for Malaysia & Singapore.. Share with you my experience of Papago for my CNY trip 1.) PG-KL-Afamosa Resort- Tamping-Melaka town Man.. i relay on it for all the POI & address to visit friends/relative.. I i am so confidence driving in KL City.. Even to Afamosa resort.. From Afamosa resort.. I use it to search for KFC restaurant nearby.. As, u know la.. Afamosa resort's food is very very expensive.. To my suprise, it leads me to KFC at Tampin town.. It is about 4.5KM away.. Man, i never know this place & you see i can go directly to the Tamping KFC... Spend a nite in Afamosa resort.. Then, navigate to Kota Afamosa.. And it leads me to there.. I love the the Junction view, even the POI along the road such as Petrol station is very accurate on the map... with Papago malfreemaps, i can now say our iphone is now a true navigation device. No need to buy the GPS device anymore.. And 1 last thing is.. You can update the latest map release from malfreemaps directly without going throught itune... No JB is needed too.. QUOTE(zxc999 @ Feb 20 2010, 11:38 PM) is papago worth buying??? there are bad reviews, for exp, not stable, wrong location,... 19.99... This post has been edited by sugen: Feb 21 2010, 06:10 PM |

Bro,
No doubt that tomtom and Sygic have better GUI..But, themost important fact is the map.Tomtom/Sygic is uses Tele Athlas map,and Tele Athlas map only cover 40% map of Malaysia only..ONLY malsingmap or malfeemaps have the complete coverage of Malaysia/Singapore.Why? Because these forum is local and contribute widely by Malaysian.They compile up all these piece and parcel..That is why u see Garmin uses malsingmap andpapago uses malfeemaps.. What is the point of having a F1 class's GUI but having a lousy map...Think about it.. QUOTE(denzel88 @ Feb 20 2010, 01:04 PM) Yup, Tomtom has a better interface and it is easier to use compared to Papago. In the world of software and programing, sometimes interface and user friendliness can be factors to increase users/customers. Eg. iPhone Interface In addition, it is useless for a software to provide many functionality such as detailed maps if it does not provide a good Software Usability. |

how Tomtom can be the best where it uses Tele Atlas digital maps.. And if you check on Tele website, it stated that the map only cover 40% of Malaysia map.. And this mat saleh Co.. map is not up to date. They rely on our Gov official map.. U know la.. ONLY malfreemaps or malsingmaps have the most complete map coverage for Malaysia & Singapore.. No others !!
QUOTE(denzel88 @ Feb 17 2010, 05:02 PM) Tom Tom is still the best, but sometimes its scary when it brings you to a narrow road or a dead end. |
