my custom POIs aren't showing up at all. Referring to those Shell, hdb logos, etc. All not showing up. Using a newly bought garmin 2650. Any idea?

just wish to provide feedback on this map,

able to load into my 255w and 2465, but noticed in 2465, when i select only MFM POI 111024 to be used with MSM Map (well my sis wants the JV), the unit automatically select MFM Map 111024 with it. no such problem on my 255W...

the odd thing is, didn't have this problem with previous versions of MFM map..

is it the map or the unit? would appreciate any feedback on my problem...



my guess is the unit, newer models have more map compatibility issues with the map sets here

Hi, thanks. Just want to clarify, do the POIs show up only on the browsing screen? will it show up on the navigation screen cos mine doesn't show up irregardless of the level of map detail i set?

It should show up on both screen modes. Have you tried zooming in all the way...?

This is normal for all the new nuvi 1xxx, 2xxx, 3xxx series. It's not a fault, it's a feature. :mrgreen:

The reasoning behind this is Garmin feels you shouldn't be distracted by colourful POIs while you are navigating on the road.

Solution: Live with it, or get an older 2x5 nuvi.

Thank you bro tympg for the info... I thought Garmin forgot to draw the POIs. So it is a feature of the newer Nuvis to keep us from any distraction. Will it be good idea to take away all the roads we are not using during Navigation?... :lol: :mrgreen:

Cheers!
