Garmin talk

Playing with my 775T last night and I decided to turn off the 3D maps for NA, and Europe, as I use 2D only.

After using it today, I noticed the touch screen was far more accurate, and no misses for entering addresses, or any other icons. My only conclusion was it cut down on the processor load, and freed up a fair bit of memory as well.

Where are all the cameras?

Hi all!!!!
Another "newbee" here. We recently purchased a 765T.
GPS works great......so far.

The Garmin 1390T uses street names instead of route numbers. Is there a way to make the Garmin tell me street numbers and the names?

Is there a way to find the lat/long coordinates of Favorites that are already saved to a GPS? I have not been successul in finding that information.

I know I can download it through a couple of downloadable programs available but I hoped there may be a way to view them without downloading.

The one that goes from the flip up antenna into the body. I just did a stupid thing. Anyone got a source / price? thanks /mark

Copied pictures to SD card and they are small
How do you View them full screen

I have a old nuvi 350 that i bought years ago, it's a brick. I think it needs a new touch screen now. I'd like to repair it. Anyone have any advice to some, or should i just do garmins flate rate repair?

Hi all, I'm new here and I was wonder what the best POIs would be to download for a road trip from Spokane Washington, to the upper part of Minnesota, Basically driving through Wa, Id, MT ND, and MN. If anyone has so good advice, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Can anyone direct me to a source of supply for an end piece and silver tip (Garmin's names: go to Garmin's FAQ page and then click on the link labeled How do I reassemble my GTM 20 or GDB 50? for an illustration) for a GDB 50 cable?

Going down a flat highway on cruise control my speedometer shows my truck going 73 mph--Nuvi 765T says 68--who's right?

A 1999 Tacoma 4x4 ext cab is my main rig. I run 31 10.50 R15 tires which came stock on my TRD version. I know that oversized tires and/or rear diff mods can impact speedo accuracy, but generally speaking the GPS should be more accurate right?

Hi.

What is the fastest way to delete all waypoints in my 255W without deleting them individually?

Hi all,
My clock is showing an hour later than the actual time. I deselected "automatic" & set it manually so now the clock shows the correct time but when I set a route the arrival time is still an hour off. Interestingly, its world clock shows that today is Monday July 16, 2029 (time flies).

Hello guys,
I have a question about wav files alerts for custom poi's on the c340. I know this is an old unit does anyone know if this has been done with this unit?
thanks in advance

Since updating to the .30 version and my C530 updating 1 version to the latest firmware, I have noticed a marked change in performance when working with Custom POIs. They are loaded on my c530. Previously, after selecting Custom POIs, I would select the particular group I am interested in and it would appear almost instantly. Now there is a several second delay.

Hello, all. I'd bought my first Garmin (and first GPS) in Spring 2004, preparing for a cross-country road trip. It was a StreetPilot 2620 and boy, did that come in handy while wandering the country.

But the car I bought in 2006 had a navigation system built-in; it wasn't nearly as good as the Garmin--see

Amazon had the 285WT for $130, I think. But the price had gone up since then. You can still get the 265WT for $160 with free shipping and no tax most places.

Hey, I am new to this site and new to GPS systems. I just purchased a Garmin Nuvi 765T. I was hoping that I could get some help. Do you have any advice as to what I should do to avoid future issues (etc) right from the start. Should I plug it in a get updates, new maps and if so how do I do this?

Please help me. I have a Nuvi 755T and I loaded a lot of poi's but I can not get it to show up on map or get the alert sounds to work. To start with,, YES I have loaded pois and when I follow the directions, I go to TOOLS-SETTINGS- BUT there is no proximity point icon to go to. I can load pois and go to them but I want to have alert sound when I get close.

Lots of language files taking up space on my Nuvi. I don't plan to sell it to a non-English speaker (ok, I might keep Spanish), so I could make room for the 2011 map, which is sure to be another gig or so.

OK to delete?
