[mkgmap-dev] phone number bug?

Tue Aug 4 15:00:18 BST 2009

FWIW, I think this problem is model-specific. My Nuvi 250 can't do
Bluetooth, but it can display addresses and phone numbers and it
formats them perfectly for me.

Cliff's device seems to dislike the same data from the same img file, though.

>> Hello,
>>
>> I use mkgmap to make Garmin maps for my Nuvi 860T gps.  I notice that
>> POIs which have only a phone number can be used directly with my

>> follows in the info screen for the POI:
>>
>> POI xyz
>> street adress+353 87 1234567
>>
>> Notice that the phone number appears at the end of the address info
>> without any space and it is no longer available to me to dial directly
>> from the gps unit.

>> The call that I use to make the map is as follows:
>>
>> ava -Xmx512m -jar /Applications/mkgmap/dist/mkgmap.jar
>> --remove-short-arcs --ge
>> nerate-sea --description="OSM_Ireland" --country-name="Ireland"

>> java -Xmx512m -jar /Applications/mkgmap/dist/mkgmap.jar --family-id=1
>> --gmapsupp
>>   6*.img M0000001.TYP

>> Does this look like a bug?

>> Thanks,
