With 6.30 firmware update, Categories of Custom Pois are not shown correctly !!!
To get over this problem you can do as I did:
On my PC's hard drive I've organized my Custom Pois like this:
- C:\My_POI\General_GR\ gpx,bmp and wav files
- C:\My_POI\Radars_GR\ gpx,bmp and wav files
- C:\My_POI\Dangerous_GR\ gpx,bmp and wav files
Poi Loader was reading from the "red" folders and before 6.30 everything was OK
NOW with 6.30 here is what you have to do, so you can see the Categories of your Custom Pois:
- C:\My_POI\General\General_GR\ gpx,bmp and wav files
- C:\My_POI\Radars\Radars_GR\ gpx,bmp and wav files
- C:\My_POI\Dangerous\Dangerous_GR\ gpx,bmp and wav files
Now Poi Loader must read from the "green" folders so you can see categories in you Nuvi
With 6.30 update Poi Loader does not like to read from a folder that inside have POIS, but to read from a folder that inside has another folder and inside this one are the POIS!!!!

New Address Search filtering
A few weeks ago I updated a 3490LMT to 6.20 firmware and 2012.40 maps. I did an address search today using Where To > Address and there is a screen that prompts you to select "Spell City" "Enter Postal Code" "Search All" and "State or Country." The interesting thing is after you select one of these items and start inputing the first letters or numbers, the unit starts filtering the number and letters on the keyboard to only the ones that are applicable for your search (like the way Magellan does it).
To my knowledge, Garmin has never does this on any unit (?) and I don't remember the 3490LMT doing this before. I tested a 3590LMT on 6.20 firmware and it doesn't do it either. On the 3590LMT, when you go to Where To > Address, you don't get the screen described above "Spell City" "Enter Postal Code" etc. Instead the first screen that pops up is a number pad to input the house number.
Does anyone with a 3490 or 3590 do this filtering on address searches? Does anyone know how to enable it?Last edited by class3; 5th June 2012 at 05:30 PM.
