Go to roadguides.ph and read the stickys in the forum. It sounds easy to install but you'll find a lot of obstacles doing it. Eventually you'll get to figure it out yourself.

I loaded roadguide version 1.07 and when I passed the Fort, it was asking me to take a U turn in a no U-turn slot. Pinoy nga ang gumawa nito.

It was also asking me to turn left on Lawton street, the road in the corner of the Lexus dealership that connects to Kalayaan ave., but it was still closed.

I took a right in a relatively new road across Serendra and the map got confused until I took a left going to Market Market. Now it gave me an idea what to contribute to roadguides.

As for the Elevated U-turn, it did recognize the u-turn and asked me to go on it. So that is at least updated.

Roadguide's FREE map ver. 1.07 is a year old already... so you can just imagine the changes that the map went through already after that.... FYI, we are now on ver. 1.20.


when planning to contribute... do base your planned contributions against the ver 1.20 DEMO map which you can upload to mapsource but cannot be transferred to your gpsr.

Oh I plan to contribute. Still scratching my head though on how and what to contribute. I do hope in time.

I did offer alcohol but surprisingly, they seem to have turned it down.

it would be better if you can attend an EB whenever there's one to speed up the learning curve.
