last time before i brought nuvi 1250, i got brought garmin nuvi 205 which is no junction view. but that one can view the icon even i on the move. so can i know how to make it visible to see the icon even on the move that time.



Newer Nuvi firmware restricts viewing of POI icon during navigation and view mode. Older Nuvis doe not have such restriction.

hmm? :nutz: it's useless new feature..
better using old firmware, viewing POI while searching area is very important...
seeing map while driving is NOT dangerous, only tweaking while navigation is dangerous.
i think garmin copr was too eerie..

how to downgrade Nuvi?

poi adalah sebagai rujukan dalam masa sebenar dimana kita berada pada ketika itu. poi ikon semasa memandu adalah penting bagi saya supaya dapat memastikan dimana lokasi saya sedang berada dan mudah hendak beritahu polis atau kawan untuk mencari kita jika sesat. :mrgreen:

POI的是一个真正的时刻,我们在那一刻是引用。 POI的图标,而驾驶对我很重要,以确保我在哪里,位置很容易告诉警察或我们的朋友找到,如果丢失。จุดที่น่าสนใจ คือการอ้างอิง ในเวลาจริง ที่ เรา มี ในขณะ นั้น ไอคอน จุดที่น่าสนใจ ในขณะ ขับรถ เป็นสิ่งสำคัญที่ ฉัน เพื่อให้แน่ใจว่า ที่ผม และ สถานที่ตั้ง เป็นเรื่องง่าย ที่จะบอกตำรวจ หรือ เพื่อนของเรา ในการค้นหา หาก สูญหาย

Only way POI will show is in 80m zoom when your touch screen during movement or navigation. :-'

I also a Garmin 1250 new user, you can download custom poi & save it under x:/garmin/map/poi. at least it will alert with junction/intersection instead of traffic light icon.
