Garmin talk

i have a nuvi 770 and while i was looking through the some audio software (turbocc)to change played messages like "Recalculating..etc" on my "TTS - Daniel"; I found some other messages like 64-Welcome to garmin or 72- Gps is oph which if i'm not mistaken they should play when you turn on/off the device.
my unit doesn't play these messages... any ideas ??

Does anyone know if the units that WalMart sold on black friday contain state only maps? A friend of the family is claiming that his gps only works in Kansas, not Nebraska or Oklahoma.

He is not technically minded and I have not been able to figure out which unit he has exactly yet (thinking nuvi 200).

I have not seen this else where and was just curious what others had experienced.

Hello Everyone

FIRST Thanks for all the info I have found for my Nuvi 2000!

Can someone point me in the right direction (No pun intended) with WebUpdater.
When I run it I get a list. Most are voices but there are 3 on top that I have a about.
Localization Data, XML file
Text, nuvi 2 series, All languages
Text, Proximity Alerts, All languages

I got my daughter a 250 for Christmas. Though it gives turn-by-turn directions with voice, it does not name the street to turn on. For example: instead of saying "Turn right on Main Street", it simply says "Turn right". I looked through all of the settings, but couldn't find anything that would change this. I haven't seen that on any of the other models I have handled.

In creating CSV file, does it necessary always the longitude is negative (-) or just in the USA. In my location in the Philippines the longitude is positive.

i loaded the state parks onto my nuvi, when finished and i checked them all it said was campground, no name of the campground or any info at all is this correct?

Im trying to change my pic but cant, I did it before but forgot how?

Is there any way of Programmatically creating garmin routes from poi files or is there an external program that would do this?

I just purchased a recertified 350 and it is supposed to have the latest maps. How do I locate the map version on the 350?

Anyone have any input about this new (I think) feature and if and how well or better it works.

I have a Motorola Q with bluetooth that is on thge supported device list for the Garmin Nuvi 370. I can make/recieve phone calls through the GPS dial function but the GPS will not upload the contacts from my phone and I continue to get an error when I send a contact to the GPS by bluetooth. Any suggestions for getting contacts into the GPS?

Hi everybody.

I uploaded some POI's and their associated icons, even up loaded them with the uploader, and I still only get a blue flag for all my POI's instead of the custom icon. What gives?

Thanks,

Is it common for a gps to recalculate after stopping for a short period? when I start to move it jumps all over recalculating and has at times caused me to turn at the wrong road. any explanations?

just wondering, how do i use garmin communicator, i realize its to get pois off of google maps but how do i do it?

Hopefully this isn't considered too far off topic. I have been using Garmin Mobile XT the last few days. I have update the operating firmware, downloaded POI files, and added favorites from Mapsource. Now I want to add a custom vehicle. Does anybody know for certain that it can be done?

I just downloaded a file called Quilt shops but when I go to load open it I get a message saying it can't be opened as the computer doesn't recognize the application that created it. What do I do now?

I purchased a nuvi 755T a few days ago and have some questions about a couple of the features on this device. The first feature is 'lane assist'. I've used the GPS several times through Nashville and have yet to see a 'lane assist' display. I assume it's only applicable while in a route, and I've been navigating a route. What else has to happen to trigger this function?

After reading the post on the POI's I went to the factory POI'S site downloaded the Yamaha dealers

When I open my Zumo it says Found new files do you want to manage now. I push yes and then it gives me the only option to bring them in to my favorites . I know that is not were they should go .

On our trip from Dana Point back to San Diego Jack tried twice to route us off the 805 only to have us get right back on.
