GPS: Garmin releases MalSingMaps Malaysia/Singapore/Brunei NT 2010.40 for free update

Garmin has made available MalSingMaps (MSM) Malaysia/Singapore/Brunei NT 2010.40 (2010-Q4) for free update now.

Due to this improvement, the installation file is much more smaller than the previous version. For example, the installation file for nuvi 255w is now 237MB only (compared with previous version’s 743MB)

The installation program will update gmapprom1.img, gmapprom1.unl, gmap3d.img and SGMYMAL.JCV into your Garmin GPS navigator. As nuvi 255w doesn’t support 3D maps, if you are installing to this model, gmap3d.img will automatically be removed during the end of the installation process.

During the installation process, you’ll be asked for the unlock key. The key is stored in the existing gmapprom1.unl file in your Garmin GPS navigator, which you can open with Notepad or any text editor. Just copy and paste the key to the installer when asked.

Version highlights:
Update Traffic Message Channel in Singapore
DPOI of Singapore
Add more POIs, postal code data and laneinfo of Singapore
Extended road shield of Singapore & Malaysia
Trails are built into the map
Road Signs value-added
Synchronize to Malsingmaps v5.00
Extending more Junction Views for complex intersection around Malaysia

Surprisingly, this version has a smaller SGMYMAL.JCV file of size 217,747kb only (compared with the previous 352,764kb), but it contains more Junction View pictures and more lane assist triggers.

You can download the installation file of MalSingMaps Malaysia/Singapore/Brunei NT 2010.40 from Garmin server. The download file is split into 4, and you just need to download the file relevant to your Garmin GPS navigator:
nuvi 3790
nuvi 1460, 1350, 765 or 255w
nuvi 1250
nuvi 205 or 205w

Software: TinyUmbrella 4.1.12 Released

October 31st, 2010 by ytechcity

With the release of iOS 4.1.1 or even iOS 4.2 soon, it would be a wise thing to do to save your iPhone iOS 4.1 or early version of SHSH blobs either on Cydia, or locally with TinyUmbrella. Saving your SHSH blobs will be helpful if you ever want to downgrade your iPhone to previous firmware version

TinyUmbrella 4.1.12 is available and has many bugfixes and features.

Save All SHSHs – Click on ‘Show All SHSHs’ and the Save SHSH button changes to Save All SHSHs
Exit Recovery – Right Click on a recovery device and ‘Exit Recovery’
Change device name – Double click on a Known Device to change its name.
Preferences:
When connecting a device, prefer my custom device name over the name set on the device – This preference will use the name(s) you set over the name found on the device. Useful for folks with many friends that have phones named ‘iphone’

How do I save my SHSHs on Cydia?
If you have the option “Request SHSH From Cydia” enabled your SHSHs are requested through Cydia. This means that if your request results in successful saved files, Cydia DOES have your SHSHs. There is no way to force Cydia to store SHSHs for older versions of firmwares. There are security concerns there.
