Deleting additional voices on c340

 

Reading between the lines of earlier posts, and after communicating with Garmin and getting advice there, it appears that the extra voices I added to my unit cannot be deleted.

I re-installed one of them, hoping an "uninstall" utility would appear, but it didn't.

I wanted to make a bit more room for some poi files, but I do have the two I really wanted: red lights and combined rest areas.

Tech support at Garmin told me that poi files and the non-stock voices do share the same memory space, and that there was no way to delete the voices I had added.

But in one of the other threads someone mentioned doing a hard reset of the unit, and implied that that had gotten rid of the non-stock voices.

That would also get rid of my favorites. But now that I have had my GPS for a couple of months, I think I could re-duplicate them in about an hour.

I actually do have a question!

Has anyone with a c340 with non-stock voices done the re-set to delete added, extra voices?

I only like two of the 5 or so that I added, (I really like Lee!), so some of them are definitely just taking up space I'd like to have available for additional POI files.

I have never tried that on

I have never tried that on my C340, but I am not sure you save any room for custom POIs by doing this anyway. I thought I read a post at one time that 2 MB of internal memory was reserved for custom POIs. I don't know if the extra voices use that same memory block or not. Does anyone else know for sure?
