Garmin talk

I have a Garmin Nuvi 650 and I want to know if it will accept POI Camera database. I realize I have limited memory so I just purchased a 4GB SDHC card.

thanks for your help.

I have Nuvi 2555LMT when I try to transfer from my nuvi to google earth or garmin map source they do not see my gps. I check on my hard drives and it shows up can send locations and all this is only trouble having. Am I not holding my mouth right or what sure would like some help thank you

Is there any way to download my custom POIs from my nuvi 855? Turns out that I can't find my original files. (Stored them on an external drive that won't work!)

If I could find the files on the gps, then I could probably find a convertor from gpi to gpx and use EPE

Hello, I am trying to upload a few POI's with their BMP icons. I have dome this before and have had no trouble however, for some reason, the .bmp files are not uploading.

I am using POI Loader 2.2.2 for Mac. I have a Garmin nuvi 3590LM.

I made sure the POI file and the icon were name exactly the same. Both downloaded from POI Factory. Example: mobil.bmp and mobil.csv

After 2 years I think, here's an update to Extra_POI_Editor (EPE).

Changes from v5.32 to beta v5.35
•Fixed the Geocoding and Batch Geocoding functions
•Reduced the maximum POI loaded in EPE to 500,000 instead of 1,000,000.
•Fixed a runtime error when hitting the Grab button before the map is drawn in the POI Edit window.

Hi Guys,

I love my Nuvi 2460 but!!!

I like to have my ecoRoute HD on to show me the fuel consumption on every trip.

This means every time I start a new journey I have to agree to Garmin's terms then go through 2 (or is it 3) menus, to get my fuel consumption on display.

Is there any way I can set it to come on automatically.

I would love to hear if it can be done.

Regards,

Garmin Express hangs and causes problems when updating maps.It installs automatically to replace Garmin Updater. I called support after 6 hours and after disconnecting usb and reconnecting Express worked. Can't Garmin get it right?

I have noticed that whenever accident is reported by traffic update on my Nuvi 3597, it will stay for days. Only way to get rid of this accident icon is reboot of the device. Standby mode does not clear it. I use Smartphone Live traffic. Any one else notice the same issei on 3597?
I will appreciate your feed back.

Has anyone created a 'silent voice' file for the Garmin? That is, if this 'silent voice' is selected, then the Garmin does not give instructions (drive 1/2 mile) or speak street names but tones and alerts are still audible. Selecting mute or turning down the volume silences both the voice and tone alerts.

I did find a thread for this topic on another forum, but no solution was ever posted.

I recently purchased a Nuvi 50LM. It was a reasonable price and my wife loves some of the improved features from our old Nuvi.

I went to delete the Trip Log and cannot find out how. It seems completely absurd that there is not a way to do it. After all, once you start stacking multiple trips, all are pretty useless, as you cannot identify the new one.

Ver. 2.7.3, as of Nov 07, 2013

Hope they didn't screw anything up. I've downloaded and installed ... yet I renamed my old poi loader so it wouldn't be overwritten.

I have been using the rest areas combined POI file for several years on my Garmin C30 and really liked the alert
display(nice large white font on red background) on the device. I have upgraded to a Nuvi 52 and
the display of the alert on its screen is so small that it
is a safety hazard to try to read the details on the device. Have others had this same experience and is their

I ricently took a trip from Ohio to Long Island NY I used both GPS on the trip the Garmin C550 and the Garmin 1450, both Garmin told me it would take me 8 hours to get there, mileage 423, before I start the trip I reset the mileage counter on my car to zero.

When I update maps on my Garmin 660 I can only install
Eastern States, in past years I could install all of USA
I only have one set of maps on my 660 and it over writes
it when I do a map update.

This is regarding Garmin POI Loader.

There's a "Alert Setting" box that allows you choose from speed or distance. (see https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-d7vyNbLlZmQ/UnsKnz8O04I/A...)

I created POI files: Redlight.gpi and Speed.gpi.

I installed them on my Garmin Nuvi 3590LMT GPS. (I can see them on the device \.SYSTEM\POI folder.)

When I go to Settings > Proximity Alerts > Alerts, I can see only one entry - "Customer POIs".

Hallo, i have some questions about some stuff again.

I tried to run extra poi editor in my linux-mint computor, i installed Wine but i could not get EPE to work.
My skills about this things are low so instead of invent the wheel again i ask if there is someone around here that gets EPE to work wit Wine or is it a dead end?

hi i have a garmin nuvi 500, well thats what im guessing thats the model. anyways i want to install a dinnferent firmware/os on it like a linux distro is this at all possible? i got it as a gift without a manual so i dont really use it at all it seems to be more usefull as a mobile linux box.

Does anyone know how to completely reformat or wipe memory clean for a Garmin GPS? I have an older Garmin Nuvi 1350LMT. I have cleared all of my user data in the device settings and even tried to reset the device by doing the factory reset at boot up and nada!

Ford Navigation or keep my Garmin 2350 LMT, I'm researching into purchasing a Ford Explorer 2014 with Ford Navigation included.
