hi im using malfreemaps latest v131 on nokia n79 garmin latest build. A newbie who just started using it.

What's the best way to go to a specific road name?

-eg lets say i want to checkout some houses for sale in Kelana Jaya and need to go to the road, for example Jalan SS6/1
-if i search via address and put in the house number and road name it usually could not find it, but if i browse the map the road is there
-is there anyway i can search for route to the road only?

thanks

try putting a space between SS and the number - eg. SS 6/1
no need jalan

i dig u bro

like 1 example i tried searching friend house in Bangsar @ Jalan Tempinis

put in city = Kuala Lumpur, road = Tempinis, result = not found

However,

put in city = Bangsar, road = Tempinis, result = found

So basically when it prompts city it means the area name in malfreemaps i think

i think we need a tutorial on efficient usage of Garmin, u know like all the small points u can only know by experience like what we just discussed

btw for routing, i set to 'Shortest distance' as default 'fastest time' usually does not use my usual routes and makes it further

and does anybody know where to get more car icons? im sure its just some copy paste action into the memory card folder. I only have arrow, luxury car, kembara-like car, and monster truck, and they are all blue lol.

i wanna update to new malfreemaps version. Is is adequate to only run it on my pc and let it overwrite the previous gmasupp.img?

will all my saved places be still there?
