Garmin talk

it released today for update

My Garmin 680 has stopped speaking through the internal speaker. It works through ear buds and through the vehicle radio. Any help would be great.

How do you hide (get rid of) the unasked for POI,s?

In some areas gas stations, restaurants and banks were filling up my screen by changing banks to rest areas helped.

I really don't want them on the screen.

Bad news. Had my Nuvi stolen. Good news, police caught the guy going through another car in the parking lot. Got it back, except for the cable.
Saved a bundle and ordered one from China on 11/28/16. I wonder where it's at? Lesson learned.

With the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2017 announcement of the new Garmin automobile navigators, I suspect that many here will look at the Garmin DriveLuxe 51 LMT as a premium automobile navigator in the current Garmin line up. With that in mind, I suspect that at some point comparisons will be made to the now slightly dated Garmin Nuvi 3597LMTHD.

During the installation of map update 2017.30 on my Nuvi 2460LMT, I was required to install an SD card.

GE recognized the card and the update completed without problems.

The lasts update to 2017.20 required 63 minutes to complete the update, however this update to 2017.30 required 3 hours and 50 minutes.

Hello, I'm having a question regarding the proximity alert function of the Garmin Nuvi (and Oregon) models. I programmed custom points of interests for road culverts to warn public works mower operators of culverts that are not visible and to prevent damage to both equipment and infrastructure.

CN EU 2017.30 was released by Garmin yesterday, but there was an issue initially downloading for those with the full EU map installed, which now breaches the FAT32 4Gb limit. To cope Garmin now split the map into two, CN EU North and CN EU South, but Express was only installing the North part. That issue is now resolved.

I just noticed that the weather part of the 3597 no longer works...it will still show the temperature in the data screen but the separate weather feature is now gone...did I miss something or is the last update corrupted?

TIA, Ted

The In Reach Explorer looks interesting.

I don't think this has been discussed on POI Factory before.

looks like Garmin is getting it's 2017 offerings ready the 51/61 series

CN EU 2017.30 NTU just released ...

My old trusty 350 is running outa space I want to start putting maps to SD card to do that do I need GE or BC?? I've been using MU for years and it don't let you install to SD card, not that I can see.

Looking for a poi file for Ufa card lock stations for Western Canada??

I’m considering whether to replace my almost new nuvi 52lm. I have been looking at 58LM or the 2539lmt,2589. The 58 has all the features that I like: school zone speed, lane guidance (for exits) real directions (turn left at the gas station)direct access and 4 square. The 2539 & 2589 have most of those features. My question is the 2539 & 2589 have capacitive screens.

Had used nuvi 3590LM for 2-3 years. Like the unit, particularly its capacitive screen, charmingly sensitive. But the socket and/or power cable have been really annoying for the past year. Whenever I plug in, the unit senses that (as the screen lights up), but just continue to show warnings of no charging power (as the battery icon indicates, not in a charging mode).

I am getting ready to download the latest map to my Garmins. I hope I don't run into any problems.

Just wanted to report that I came back from Iceland yesterday. Took the Garmin 3597 and preloaded it with Iceland maps from http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/

Worked perfectly! We were able to get around everywhere and every POI we needed from attractions to grocery stores was on the map data.

Hello, I can really use some wisdom from the forum.
