MFM is not good enough in borneo period.

1 - register as member
2 - use a tracking device
3 - start tracking
4 - upload tracklogs to appropriate thread
5 - done !


please use the appropriate device for tracking. whether hardware or software. 1 sec tracklogs are best.

i'll be heading to sabah for a 5 day holiday and get some tracking done. if u collaborate with me, we'll cover the area without clashing into each other. saves time, work and money. i'll try to finish up kundasang and ranau area. u can have any other area apart from those 2.

Thank you !


I'm in Sarawak, so no clashes with yours. will test drive it tomorrow. but i'm confused between malsing and MFM, right now leaning towards MFM though, since I'm using their maps

most of us jumped ship long ago. u're probably one of noah's last few supporters.

hi, i recently bought a garmin nuvi 205, it worked fine right until today when i can't switch it on. thought it was a dead batt and plugged into the car charger but still no signs of life. Any idea what's wrong and how to solve it?

maybe try press the reset button on the back and see how 1st.

you lost me there. who's stronger now ? newbie to all of this

does it matter who's stronger ? earlier u already told me, enough to navigate through major towns. cukup kan ?

I don't want to upload to a group that might stop updating in a few weeks. Tracked around 100km worth of uncharted MFM roads these few days.

besides, MFM claim malsing are copying their maps and vice versa. so it's hard deciding which to contribute to ...

yeah...Holux is da bestest brand for GPS receiver device...

politics isnt something to dwelve into. a tracker and mapper does not have ulterior motives other than to provide free maps to the community. wherever/whomever you contribute to is irrelavant. its your ulterior motives and therefore your's is questionable. stimix and many others contribute to both at the benefit of society. its not a hard thing to decide anyway.

Wan to ask for the GPS lock on time between Asus P750 VS Nokia 5800 VS Omnia 8Gb which GPS more faster among these? FOr lock on time and re-calculating time. Lock on time determine by Processor or GPS chipset??As i know..Asus P750 using SiRF III chipset..it would more better than the other 2?Thanks!

It's probably useless asking you which community is still going strong then.


jeez, if you can't answer a simple question then quit acting all arrogant. since you're still a newbie around here, i'll direct my query elsewhere.

ok. go direct it somewhere else. especially on MFM yah, i'll be waiting for u there. oh oh or mypdacafe also can.

the current MFM already covers main road through kundasang and ranau, unless u wanna make those small kampung road leading into the jungle. anyway, good effort .

all main roads were covered long ago.
