Garmin 2597 New POI .. 99% ok
Hello
With the great work of this forum I have successfully used POI Loader, sox.exe, created POI's using GPS coordinates in .gpx and made wav files. I have made 8 different POI's and the file name of each POI is identical to the .wav file except for the extension.

NuviCam
I have owned the nuviCam for about a week. Overall, aside from being rather massive, I like its features. I am still getting used to it and working with it, so I have not been able to access all features yet, but the new ones that I have used are useful. The dashcam is also a nice feature, although I know that some grumble about it.

POI sound alert for Garmin Nuvi 2568LMT
Hello,
I am unable to customize POI sound alerts for my Garmin 2568LMT. I used POI editor 2.7.3 with SOX 14.4.2. I had a doubt with my WAV files so I used sample WAV files found on this site. WAF filename is the same that csv and bmp file (except extension).
The only sound I have is a "dong dong" sound while I expect my WAV file is played.
Do you have an idea of what's wrong?

Time for a new Garmin
Well, my wife's 765T died after almost six years of solid service. My 765T is still going strong. I have to replace the unit with a new one, and I don't have a clue about which Garmin to choose. We're not looking for a lot of bells and whistles. Don't need Bluetooth since that's already built into her car.

Garmin Express won't 'see' map update 2015.40
I purchased a 3597LMT a few months back. We are leaving for a big trip in few days so I check online and see they have released 2015.40.
When I plug in my 3597 and fire up garmin express it doesn't show the update......yet if I select the 3790 I used to have it does show the update for it. What gives?
Thanks!

CSV and GPX on device together
This is a pretty newbie question, but if I load CSV and GPX duplicate files will I end up with duplicate files on my Nuvi? I wasn't sure if it would default to just one of them. For example there is a CSV and a GPX file of donut paradise. Will I end up with duplicate data if I install them both? Thanks, Louie.

Time Zone Map V16.01 Fixes V16.00 Problem
I was just updating some POI files when Garmin Express showed me that Time Zone Map Update 16.01 was available. I had updated to 16.00 yesterday (Sunday) and had to change my GPS to Mass Storage Mode to be able to use POI Updater. After installing 16.01 everything works great again. I changed back to MTP Auto Detect and now the GPS correctly communicates with POI Updater.

Finally decided to list my only remaining Garmin Unit on eBay
Update 5/23/2015: Everything sold and has already been paid for using eBay. It sold for $187.50 + shipping in just 5 days so eBay comes thought again.
Original post:
I have been using Garmin units for years and have been generally very pleased with their features and reliability.

Charging 3790
I'll be going to Europe for all of July. I'd love to take my 3790 with a Europe map on an SD card.
Can the 3790 be charged via the mini USB port from an electric outlet using a mains to USB adapter?

Garmin nuvi 2598lmthd custom poi
I downloaded the poi loader from Garmin, and got the red light camera files from here. Upon connecting my gps to the computer, the poi loader program would not detect my gps unit when I told it to save the poi file to my gps. I then told it to save the file to my computer and it worked.
