is there anyone who are rendering ("paid") services to have the GPS running?

ok ok. try ko bro..

FYI lang, you need to install Training Center first before Mapsource.

Pwede ba ang OSM Philippine Map sa Garmin Nuvi 1360? Kailangan pa ba install ang MapSource? or I just have to copy the gmapsupp.img file? TIA.

pwede po... but you need to install Training Center, Mapsource to your pc to transfer it to your device.

bumili ako last November 2011 ng Garmin Nuvi 1360 philippine version 2011 and it is accurate. kahit nga yung mga street na walang pangalan ay makikita mo. And very simple to use. at kung kailangan mo ng bagong map ay mag do- download lang directly sa garmin website for free. So far di ko pa nasubukan kasi halos lahat ng kailangan mo ay loaded na. it is a good stuff. Sulit sa ibinili.

I think so. Better buy there. I'm sure it will work here. Got mine (Nuvi 50) for 120 usd. I've seen reasonably priced units at sulit.com.

Just got my second garmin from the states a nuvi 50 5inch screen. Almost all of the featurse of the 1350 are there except for the POI icon, calculator, world time and the satellite display. It's easier to use because of the big screen and the touchscreen response is much faster. Just two American voices to choose from a TTS and one non TTS (much clearer).

Yes it will work here but at 120 euro I think it's better to buy at eBay.ph or sulit.com or visit classifieds at Roadguide.ph

I have a Nuvi 1300 which I bought in Kauai, Hawaii 2 yrs ago. Worked very well there and when I got back, I joined Roadguide.ph. Downloaded Training Center, then Mapsource and was able to get regular map updates after contributing waypoints and other POI's. The unit worked very well and continues to serve me well. However some glitches have come up:

1. I can't update my contributor's map anymore, and it's been like this for 3 months now. A glitch happened to Mapsource and despite reinstalling, I can't get it to run.

2. Since I bought a lifetime update for my US map, I updated it before going to the States last month. To my surprise, the unit wouldn't pick up a satellite signal no matter how many times I restarted. My guess is, something may have gone wrong with its software ever since I got Mapsource and the local maps. So when I rented a car in the States, I had to add money for a GPS. Kainis.

3. After coming back, I tried my Nuvi and it was working very well. Picked satellite signals on the way home from NAIA.

Has this happened to other Garmin users? What remedies were you able to take?

Thanks.
