I can confirm the same bug with VENRUT (just like Mapear but from Venezuela). The APP crash when calculating a route. VENRUT also uses cGPSMapper Maps.

After several days (and nigths) testing, I think i found a workaround. It is NOT flawless but allow to use the APP without problems. Just in case is relevant, I'm using Android 4.1.1 (HTC One X AT&T STOCK -NO ROOT, NO BOOTLOADER UNLOCK, NO S-OFF-).

01. Download and install the APP (choose the one that fits your needs) from:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

02. Download the BaseMap 5.01 and put the file (gmapbmap.img) in your storage card at "/Garmin /.System" The basemap can be found here:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

03. Download the TimeZone Map 13.00 and put the file (gmaptz.img) in your storage card at "/Garmin /.System" The TimeZone Map can be found here:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

04. Download City Navigator Sout America 2014.20, UNLOCK the IMGs, and put the files (gmapprom.img and gmap3d.img) in your storage card at "/Garmin /.System"
- City Navigator can be found here:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ] (Download the FULL SAM. The 3d is not necesary but is so fancy)
- IMG Unlocker can be found here:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

NOTE: Yeah, i know, i know, Mapear at Argentina (like VENRUT at Venezuela) has more detailed maps... Just wait a minute, take a deep breath and relax. You will use Mapear (or VENRUT)... Keep reading...

05. Download your favourite map (Mapear, VENRUT, etc), generate the IMG with MapSource or MapInstall, put the file (gmapsupp.img) in your storage card at "/Garmin /Map" NOTE: The Map folder (inside Garmin folder) does not exist and you have to create it... Just make sure DO NOT put at "/Garmin /Garmin"

That is it... Now, the explanation...

For an unkown reason, Mapear (as VENRUT) fails to calculate route. Also missed categories and some other bugs. I'm sure it is because the cGPSMapper.

When you put the City Navigator as gmapprom.img at /.System and Mapear (or VENRUT) as gmapsupp.img at /Map you create a hierarchy. As you already know, gmapbmap.img (basemap) is the first map the APP check for routing, the it checks the gmapprom.img (City Navigator) and finally it checks gmapsupp.img (Mapear or VENRUT). The APP does not fails routing because City Navigator tells how to do it and Mapear (or VENRUT) just indicates the details of the route.

I already tested. It does not fail. It routes to anywhere, short or large distance... You will have the Categories back, Gas stations, POIs, all the Mapear (or VENRUT) stuffs... You can search, browse, do whatever you want.

But this method has a fail... While you are driving (after calculate a route), you can not see the coloured path that indicates the right road... It is because you are using two maps with the same route at the same time...

You MUST use both, City Navigator and Mapear (or VENRUT), at the same time in order to search, browse categories, calculate a route, etc... When a route is calculated you MUST deselect City Navigator Map in order to see the coloured path that indicates the right road.

You should reselect City Navigator Map every time you need to search, browse and route...

Yeah, is a crappy workaroud but it works for me.

Hope this helps..!
