Garmin Nuvi 3790T

 

Does anyone own a Garmin Nuvi 3790t. I would like to
know if POI files and red camera files work on this unit.
I was thinking on purchasing this nuvi but would like any feedback or comments from users who have this Garmin Nuvi 3790t.
Thanks ...

Yes, red light camera POIs work just fine as long as you disable the pre-installed Cyclops safety camera file (just rename the file to something else to disable it) which seems to override any other POI file(s) installed. This is a known bug in the unit and there are work-arounds until Garmin fixes it. You may want to check out the following topic for more 3790T discussion:

I've owned the 3790t for the past 3 weeks and it's the best unit that Garmin has ever produced. the screen is gorgeous. The unit has 2 known issues; they are the red light camera issue; and you cannot use the "send" feature from Google maps or mapquest in Windows 7. Garmin know of the 2 issues and will come out with an update sometime in the future.

I have the USCanadaCyclopsSample.gpi file on my 3790T along with the red light cameras file from POI-Factory. The Red Light cameras work fine and I haven't renamed the Cyclops file. Is it some other Cyclops file you are referring to?

Same USCanadaCyclopsSample.gpi as you. The reason I rename it to disable it is that the 37xx's bug does not allow you to deselect only the Cyclops file and only use your own POI file...it's only both or the Cyclops file. I don't want the double alerts at the same RLC intersection and I trust the POI Factory RLCs more than the Cyclops database.
