Re: XT coming next week

The problem with the Zumo XT is, that it only charges when it is running or in standby - so when the battery is really flat, it won't start up and so no charging on mains! The only solution to this is to let it charge in the motorcycle mount for a while...

Re: Wacko traffic auto-recalc routing

Snave1000 One thing I don't understand is why in some instances you will be offered one or more options to get around a traffic issue and in others the XT just re-routes. Perhaps it is traffic delays the produce options vs. road closure the triggers a re-route. The only reason I noticed this re-rou...

Re: So, who trusts their XT's navigation?

As you said - only a few things to make for a stressless ride: Set the starting point a few meters in front of your starting position when planning a route + turn off 'traffic information' + turn off 'automatic/prompted recalculation' and if you must take a detour just go 'on sight' back to the pre-...

Re: Wacko traffic auto-recalc routing

Looks perfectly logical to me. The XT is re-routing what it believes to be a closure. But you have forced it to visit each point on your original route so that's all it's doing- taking you from the calculated route, to a point, then back again. Repeatedly. Is it not as simple as skipping the points...

Re: Speed Camera Sound - Replacement?

@ThePowster
Hi - Warning tone can't be edited/changed. For the second question - if you from Europe or from the UK, the Cyclops speed/safety cameras are coming with your Zumo XT for free and will be updated only by Garmin Express from time to time. No updates of safety cameras via WiFi!

Re: Wacko traffic auto-recalc routing

The unit itself is not a mess - the way, Garmin's firmware uses it, is a mess! They had a good working routing algorithm in the Zumo 59x/39x series before, but their unprofessionell try's to make it better and better and their ignorance of the customers wishes make it more and more worse - until fir...

Re: Wacko traffic auto-recalc routing

Sorry, but that is bulls**t - what the heck should this error have to do with a map error? :evil: For me that error appears after an automatic recalculation for a road near Kastelruth, which was allegedly closed after a thunderstorm (there was already a local detour, as i was told in my hotel later,...

Re: Wacko traffic auto-recalc routing

Peobody - Jepp, can confirm this! This bug/error/feature(?) is known (ignored?) by Garmin for at least two years and i also was affected two years ago in our motorcycle-holidays in southern tyrol. :( Many users in Germany/Austria had informed Garmin of this weird behaviour and also this exact behav...
