Turn off Nuvi, then press and hold lower right corner of Nuvi screen, turn on Nuvi, continue to hold (the screen) until you get the prompt to clear all user data, select Yes. Important: Before performing hard reset, back up current.gpx from ..\Garmin\GPX folder. After successful reset, rename backed up current.gpx to temp.gpx and place it in ..\Garmin\GPX folder. Note: After resetting Nuvi, it's also advisable to let Nuvi gather satellite data outdoors and stationary, until GPS fix is obtained.

If after hard reset, still the same, I'd advise you back up all files and folders in Nuvi (including hidden files), and format it using PC (just like a USB drive), and then replace all files.


Thanks for your recommendation.
I tried to hard reset but couldn't work. I wanted to try the format it but didn't dare as I was worried that it would delete the system files as well. I know that this might solve the problem as the similar problem happened before on my USB drive.

I was playing around and manage to free up the space using this method.

In windows explorer, go to Folder Options > View. Uncheck "Hide protected operating system files".

Browse to Garmin drive (e.g. E:). I saw a "Recycled" folder in my Garmin. All deleted files were in the Recycled folder. I deleted all files in that folder hence free up the space :)

I have tried your method but found the "Recycle" folder in Garmin was just the same extra folder that was shown on the pc desktop display. what ever contents of deleted files by the pc will be shown and kept in this folder as well the one reflected "Recycle" folder in Garmin. Both "Recycle" folders are belong to the same thing. No different at all.Click the "Recycle" folder shown on desktop and compare with the one shown in Garmin. No different of contents.
Thanks.

Bro..
Wrong Forum bro.. This is MalFreeMap forum.
Anyway.. I guess some of the Mapper can still answer your question about the Postcode..

As for me I dunno how. Sorry..

Bro try this..

You will have to follow thru
1) Go "Where To"
2) Select "Addresses"
3) Search "Country"; type in "Singapore" select Singapore Sla Address/Postcode
4) Under Spell City, select "Search All"
5) Skip House Number, by pushing on "Next"
6) Enter Street Name, here's a TIP

i) You can enter exact house address, like 21 Tampines Street 34
or
ii) You can simply enter the exact post code, 529233.

Bingo!

Bro: I am using Nuvi 255w with MFMv091221, I tried the steps listed by you but at step #2, after I typed in "Singapore", I didn't see "Singapore SLA Address/ Postcode". Are tehre something not right with my device? Or I have missed out some steps during installation of the latest version of maps? Thanks.

Bro puawk, it is because you do not have the Singapore SLA PostalCodes data in your Nuvi.
MFM maps by itself does not contain Singapore SLA maps data which is copyright.

The SLA PostalCode was released to MFM users in a "limited" edition Garmin gmausupp.img file
This was made available via courtesy of EastGear, ( who have the "rights" to the data from SLA Singapore ) some time back to those who registered during a "promotional" period.
