    Newbie from Sta.Rosa

    Hi there I recently got my Garmin Nuvi 255W, and currently finding my way on how to make it work with the Philippine map on it.

    Hope to get into the right direction soon

        Was able to load up the Philippine map. Going home from the office, when I exited at Mamplasan there wasnt a map available anymore.

        Now if someone can show me to track roads and add waypoints
        Is there any link available?
        Is there any Garmin GPS manual for dummies around here?

          RG map is divided into 12 areas you have to select all areas using maptool before sending it to your device . in your case you probably send ncr map only thats why after Mamplasan exit there is no more map

            check out the FAQ/"How To" Thread for Newbies(link posted by hbt and also found on doki's signature).

                Minor correction. 1.07 basic map has 13 tiles.

                  Marami na pala tayo from Sta Rosa, we can have mini-EB
                  I can share some of my little know-how.

                  As what they have said, the best way to start
                  is to read How To's thread.

                    Why not, maybe you could help me, I can recieve and edit waypoints by opening the gpx file but Im having trouble uploading edited waypoints from mapsource to my unit, it says data has been sent but i cant find the uploaded waypoints on my gps, i also tried replacing the gpx file but that doesn't work either

                    btw i run on GMXT version5

                            Welcome to Roadguide rosanro1! Please be on the look-out for EB announcements/threads. Or better yet, you can try organize one. I'm sure our kung fu mappers will be willing to attend and share their mapping tips...
