Hi
Any idea why these differences happen and how to fix them? Why some POI/Countries are not found?
I will have a look at your map and see if anything could be changed to make it work better.
Mapsource and the devices do work very differently when it comes to searching and it is possible that there is nothing that can be done easily.
I'm aware of such differences, but I had not faced a case like this one before, with missing countries (can't type Cuba on nuvi 300 address search, so no address can be found in this country) or no POI findable at all (nuvi 3760). On the HCx I've discovered that "La Bodeguita del Medio" is included in the list of nearest POI displayed by device and you can select it, although if you try to spell it, it doesn't appear. Yesterday I compiled a map with only Cuba in it [1] and a little part of Bahamas and even so, nuvi 300 is unable to use Cuba in the address search menu but can find addresses in Bahamas. [1] Cut from central-america extract from Geofabrik with ./osmconvert32 central-america.osm.pbf -b=-85.075,19.25,-73.72,23.462 --out-osm -o=cuba.osm and compiled with java -Xmx1000M -ea -jar mkgmap.jar --gmapsupp --latin1 --code-page=1252 --country-name=CUBA --country-abbr=CUB --area-name="Cuba" --family-name="OpenStreetMap Cuba" --family-id=121 --product-id=1 --series-name="OSM-Cuba" --overview-mapname=55121000 --overview-mapnumber=55121000 --index --route ../mapas/pruebas/63240001.img typ/AME-121.TYP I've had a chance to test both Central America and Cuba maps on a nuvi 1340 with similar result: it finds the POI's, but is unable to find addresses in Cuba. I checked the information in the bounds files and Cuba is correctly covered for admin_level 2 and 4, so it should appear in the devices, as it does in MapSource. MapEdit also shows Cuba in the list of countries.
