[QUOTE="veraj2000, post: 7852711, member: 187635"] [b]Solution to Place Name Abbreviation Problem of Sri Lanka GPS Map[/b] Found this info on the placename abbreviation problem of the Sri Lanka GPS map now we use. "Zayeshk" has found a very very resourceful solution to this particular problem and has uploaded a map with place names too. Just download this map, gmapsup2.img, and upload it to your Garmin Mobile XT device. Leave the existing mapsupp.img in it as it is. Now you should be able to see place names WITHOUT names being abbreviated in to initials. A BIG THANK YOU to Zayeshk. This is what he says about his method:- "I managed to find a method to show the labels. the labels were not shown due to a error in the text encoding used.the encoding used was not compatible with the garmin mobie XT version.so i changed the text encoding in the maps with GPSmapedit and extracted only the locations as a transparent map.add this file to the garmin folder in the phone,and the locations will be visible.the locations are not well classified as small town ,large town,medium town etc..They will all just be visible as small towns..I'll try to classify them later..this is what i could do for now.Use it ONLY for Garmin mobile XT.."
