This seems to be related to my trailmap. No idea why.

Meanwhile i have also tested sending mtbmap Germany + mtbmapalps each 
with 2 tiles.
The address searchs works, but only in the tile where you are actually 
located. You can search in other tiles by moving your postion with gps 
in off Satellite mode.
