Need help!

I am having problem when loading MFM into my Nuvi 52...

I copied the "gmapsupp.img" into SD\map folder, the map can be seen, "checked or unchecked" in the "settings\map\info".

When trying to search for POI, for example, I key-in "kopi" in the search column, the screen only show "No Matches Found", no matter what I key-in in the search column, the result is always "No Matches Found". all these didn't happen when I used other map (NT 2014-20).

Please advise, what should be done to use the MFM in my Nuvi 52.

Thank you.

Yep, the 42LM and 52LM has some limitation when used with the CGPS Maps. I sort of regretted getting the 42LM. Read the below 2 posts..

Not much you can do about it.. you can however follow the recommendation from the second post above ..

Quite disappointed after buying the 52LM and tried many ways but still fail to use the CGPS Map...looks like I have to stay with my old smaller screen unit 205W :( !

I thought all the while MFM is collaborating with Garmin in the CGPS Map update, but why the new models are not "accepting" the CGPS Map? Is there any listing of models (before 42LM/52LM) that can use CGPS Map and still available in the market? Thank you.
