Garmin nuvi 24xx (GCD File) software version 3.20 Released!

 

Garmin has finally just released an update for the Nuvi 24xx line. This fixes numerous bugs - AT LAST!!

Hmmm

I don't know -- the fixes listed don't seem to apply to my main uses of the unit. Is installing it tempting the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" rule?

Either way, thanks for posting it.

Later

The link had several good fixes. Going on a trip. Will update after I get back. Don't want to take a chance of doing something wrong.

Thanks for the information

I updated my 2460 but not before I backed up my GUPDATE.GCD file. If there's a problem I can always revert to the prior software.

I did find four of eight fixes that would be beneficial to me.

1-Fixed several errors with the Trip Planner.
2-Fixed an error that caused the wrong speed limits to display in some areas.
3-Fixed an error that caused route calculation times to lengthen over time.
4-Fixed an error that caused search subcategories to not display for some 3rd-party POI files.

Thanks!

Thanks so much. Having just run WebUpdater yesterday to get Jill 3.10, I doubt that I would have found this for quite some time.

I just ran the update and all looks normal so far.

looks encouraging--

we'll see if the "route calculation lengthening over time" is gone when the fancy eco-goodies are turned on...

No noticable difference for me

I guess the speed limit errors are in the maps themselves in my area. No difference for me on this point.

I turned the trends back on, so I guess time will tell about the slow down issue.
