Lane assist with junction view (displays junction signs) DOES NOT WORK 99% of the time. I Upgraded ha) from a 760, the LA worked 99% of the time even with small junctions.

I just got an email about the new 7" Garmin with a DriveCam and Navigation functions. $449.99 seems steep. Are there any takers?

I did a dumb thing. I somehow uninstalled Extra POI Editor.

I wasn't perfect, but it still worked.

Does anyone have a link where I could download it?

This is very curious and I wonder what your thoughts are. There's an eBay seller whose seller name starts with likenew... offering many used Garmin devices for sale. Right now, there appear to be 51 Garmin GPS auctions offered, some auctions with multiple units listed. The seller has feedback of over 7000 and has been on eBay since 2012.

On a recent drive across Pennsylvania, I experienced a navigation error with my Driveluxe 51 that I have never seen before. I left Pittsburgh and used the "Home" option to create a route to my home location just east of Scranton.

I'm about to pull my old 3490LMT off the shelf and use it on a new electric scooter. With that said, I will not be plugging into any cigarette lighter so was wondering what the usual battery life is supposed to be on this unit? It's the original battery (going on 10 years) so maybe I should replace it for good measure.

Ok thanks.

I had been using Turbo CC, but it now constantly comes up with script error. I did a search for an alternative and found POI Editor.com.

Is anyone familiar with it?

It is free, so that is a plus.

Does anyone have an alternative?

Hi, I made a mistake, I lent my etrex 20, it came back with the file directoy deleted, so I need a copy of the file directory for the extrex 20... I woundering if there was someone who would be able to email the files to me at 2020ewen@gmail.com

What is the maximum Icon size that I can use with the DriveSmart 65?

I have a number of Icons, but all were for the NUVI 2555.

Thanks

They're back. If you always wanted them, or of you have no idea what they are, check the new FAQ:

I've posted a couple times about our Nuvi 660 not working correctly with latest few maps.... Here is an update....

History... Last few updates have not installed correctly... Instead of asking for a Quadrant of NA to be selected, It loaded entire NA onto SD card, that exceeds size of what 660 can read (even with corrected names applied)... so map would not load...

Hi there,

I'm pretty new in the todays GPS World and switched just recently from a Garmin GPS 12 to a Garmin DriveSmart 76.

I'm tying to overlay a custom JPG on my GPS but it doesn't seem to work.

I've decided that it's time to upgrade from my faithful NUVI 2555LMT.

I'm looking at the Drivesmart 55 & 65 with Traffic. I would appreciate a bit of feedback.

-First off, I only use the GPS for long road trips.
-Voice Activation would be nice.
-Have no need for Bluetooth to interact with my phone, but might be nice to interact with my hearing aids, but not essential.

I have a Garmin Nuvi 500. One of the modes is bicycling. Does that have all of the features of Garmin Cycle Map North America?

I like to know how Garmin user feels about the vehicle suction cup mount. Do you think it is up to the mark? Does your suction cup stay while you are driving? I have tried many ways to fix the suction cup but it never stays on the dash and the GPS fall on the ground.

Anyone else find this version to be worse than the last one on the "Road ahead" feature?

OK, I'm dealing with a nuvi 2689. I had previously used the device in a 2012 Lincoln MKX that had an accessory outlet that was off if the ignition was off. I'm pretty sure that if I had used the steps to turn the Garmin OFF (holding the power button and awaiting the OFF prompt) the 2689 did not power up when I restarted the car.

Somehow with all the tinkering with map update 2023.20 on my old nuvi 755T I can no longer get it to power up on battery or through the USB port. It does power up through the powered cradle and seems to work properly. But as soon as I unplug it from the cradle, it goes dark and will not power back up except through the cradle.

For those that want/need the Large JCV file associated with the Garmin CNNA 2023.20 map update.

The download consists of two files inside the JCV folder, D1279470A.jcv (800.4 MB)and D9673010A.jcv (751.4MB).
