No problems searcing for both on Garmin Mobile XT v5 with MFM 1.57 running on HTC HD uing Spell Name on POI search.
Except Thye Hong Center is spelt Thye Hong Center.
Most often, the buildings are more comonly referred to using their commercially known names as opposed to their official names.

Re: Garmin XT Buildings search
Thanks Drsec & Badrol. I've been using address search or "shopping" in POI search. "Spll Name" in POI works for me!

1) download free total commander ce ( http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm )
2) after download & install , go to your device registry with total commander and see HKLM>> SYSTEM>>CURRENT CONTROL SET >> GPS INTERMEDIATE DRIVER
3) Change the following string values to nothing (don't delete them, just edit them and clear the value):
4) BEFORE CHANGE:
CurrentLogFile \GPSID_log.txt
OldLogFile \GPSID_log.bak
-----------------------------------
AFTER
CurrentLogFile
OldLogFile
5) Soft-reset your device
6) With File Explorer, go to My Device, and delete the two GPSID_log files you see, and the file named xtra. If you don't soft-reset, you will not be able to delete some of them.
7) if u dun see the file named xtra then nvm .just make sure u delete the two GPSID_log files after soft-reset .
8)Check again the registry setting. Sometimes in rare cases it may revert the settings back - but that's a general WM problem.
9) if it revert setting back again then go to step 3 untill u confirm the string value is nothing there , remember to soft reset after u clear the string values.
10) i do step 3 ,4 times untill i really confirmed the string valus nothing there
tis small hack can make your phone detect gps signal in 2 mins
Yeah, It makes it fast but there is an disadvantage.It will drain the battery faster.
