Nuvi 755T screen issue.

You are not alone. Many others have reported the same problem. My suspicion is that if you call Garmin, the stock answer first offered will "We have not had any reports..."

But that's a guess on my part.

I've got a 755T that has the same issue. I think part of my problem is that I came from using an iPod Touch which has a very good touch screen. With Apples screen you just barely touch the letter and it registers, and does so correctly. With the Garmin I notice that you have to hold your finger a slight bit longer for it to register right. It's annoying but something that I got used to.

Wonder if the 780 has the same issue? I just ordered one as a gift....hope I didn't give a problematic model as a gift!

I haven't had any problems with mine. (knock on wood)

I wouldn't worry about it. The 7xx series is different than the 7x5 models in many ways. This hasn't been a problem with the 7xx models to the best of my knowledge.

Same problem here, couldn't fix it yet.

I have the same problem with my 755T. I was wondering if I was doing something wrong. I hope that a system upgrade can fix this issue.

My 885T did that, I called garmin they told me to send it to them , I only had the unit 2weeks so they sent me another brand new one. This was in august No trouble now it works great.

I have the same problem, but not problematic enough, beside it is a good price. Still waiting for a stupid screen protector

You can buy cut-it-yourself screen protectors at just about any office supply or electronics retailer. Put one on your phone, one on your camera, etc.

I'm also having the same problem. I've been in contact with Garmin, they wanted my unit back but I never sent it. It is an annoying issue but I can deal with it.

I have had the same exact issue with my 765t. Over time it has got better. The touch screen improved after I recalibrated the screen about 3 or 4 different times. The last software update a couple weeks ago has made it even more better.

I know, "more better"=bad english, but the update did make it even "more, better".

I see that these are old posts, but has the issue been resolved or is it more like isolated problems?

The problem was fixed in firmware version 4.00. Garmin also took that opportunity to break the Garmin Language Guide to which there has not yet been a fix. :/

Try a screen calibration. I have a 755T and discovered by accident that if the power switch is in the lock position when I put it in the power cradle it starts a calibration. Garmin also provides the following directions:

Start with the unit powered OFF and unplugged from power supply.

Press and hold your finger anywhere on the touch screen.

Next, slide the power switch to the ON position and then immediately slide it into the Lock position. (There is no need to wait for the screen to flash on or show the Garmin logo before moving the switch into the Lock position.)

Leave your finger on the screen for about 45 seconds.
Two intersecting lines should display on the screen along with the message: Press Dot.

I thought that newer firm ware solved any issues. Also thanks for the tip on doing the screen calibration.
