@kazasho : Not to say lag but if I were to load a 5GB map in, I would guess loading speeds will be rather slow. Same for any apps. The iPhone's processing capabilities can only do so much.
@frequency : erm.. I'll need more details than that... what do you mean by when you click the map? Which window is this at? |

QUOTE(Maverick Wil @ Nov 28 2008, 06:09 PM) @ feizaiII : Coolness! thx for the singapore maps.. u da man la.. @ jimnuz : Mediafire is working now. Maybe there was a que. Rapidshare has reached download limit so I'll update that in a bit tonight to a better server. Thnx for the heads up. @ milky : Sure I'll add it to the list. @ ahsin, Mike3300 : Actually, the GPS does work because the aifontriji itself has a built-in GPS chip that communicates with the satellites. With offline map caches however, you can only use the GPS to view where you are on the map a.k.a the blue dot. You won't be able to use search or find directions. Added on November 28, 2008, 6:18 pm@ mamet : No reason you shouldn't! @ twinkles : thnx. @ siawgu : Don't make your file size too big but from what I've been reading around, there has been no problems so far loading a 1GB file. My personal max that I tested without problems is up to 500MB. I tried a 5GB file too but that didn't quite work out. Added on November 28, 2008, 7:12 pmI have just updated the tutorial (1st Part) on how to view offline maps. I found a way for those who do not want to jailbreak so bro stringfellow, that fix was created for you in mind. You might want to make your own maps though because you can only load one file at a time. Anything below 1GB should be fine.  |

@ harmeet15 : Oh no. I must have forgotten to rename the Klang Valley file. Will fix it in a bit but you can do it yourself as well. Rename the folder as whatever you want but my format is "KV---KlangValley" because I've found that the front 2 initials will show up on SB and the rest of the name is for view in OfflineMaps. I chose to go with this refercne method.
but it seems like oni map is active at a given time ya... << I don't quite get this. @pehkay For real? How come? Which part doesn't work? |

I reckon that you will not be able to access the folders required to upload those maps as your phone needs to be JB to acess the root folders. For non Jailbreak iPhones, you will only see your media folders. I'm not sure if ifunbox can help but do give it a try. Cheers |

Are you using Windows or a Mac? I'm on Windows. I went and examined DiskAid and found that I can access the folders I specified. You can toggle to explore the 'root' directory instead of 'media' at the drop down menu on the bottom-left of the window. If files don't show up while you're browsing, hit F5 now and then to refresh. The MapTiles.sqlitedb file is most definitely there. Try again. The non-jailbreak method works. I'm not sure if the mac version of DiskAid has the same layout but it should. If anyone can confirm the same description as above, that'd be great. Cheers. This post has been edited by Maverick Wil: Nov 29 2008, 10:54 PM |

@ frequency
As stated in the tutorial, routing for OfflineMaps is not supported for FW2.2. Not for Malaysia and not for anywhere else. Not yet anyways. Besides, even if you were to do routing offline (I'm assuming you did not turn on any data connection 3G/Wifi/EDGE), you have to do it in GMDL first by setting points of interests. I am still learning about this so once I get around to figuring it out (very busy at the moment), I'll update the tutorial to share with you guys how to set points of interests yourself and access them through your bookmarks on the iPhone. Essentially it is like having a street directory offline. |

Oooh i c...I don't get that error message because I'm jailbroken. Argh... That's so not cool. From what I've been reading up on DiskAid is the only possible one which managed to do it before. I guess Apple clamped down on the loophole in the 2.1 and above fw... Sorry mate. I'll have to take down that bit of the tutorial then. |

I'll be back with updates after a while. I'm pretty caught up in a project for the next week plus so I won't have the time to really sit down and work on the offline maps for now. I'll be around though.

Internet connection has been really bad these few weeks and getting worse by the day. I keep resetting my modem to get a better ip range but seems like all the bloody ip ranges are messed up. |
