If you have the correct type of USB cable the unit should initiate startup into USB mode.
The unit will not "run" on USB power alone if that's what you are asking.

Re: XT not flagging closed roads
The XT can only report what it knows about. Chances are the road closures were not reported to whom ever supplies the information to the XT/Drive App.
I've experienced the same issues with closed sections of the Blue Ridge Parkway... closures of multiple years, yet still not known to Garming maping.

Re: Newbie Questions re recently acquired Garmin Zumo 550
Newbie to Garmin Zumo 550 here (but a very long time Garmin user) and have a couple of Zumo 550 specific questions: 1/ is there a way to force the GPS into GPS mode, as opposed to mas storage mode, when plugging into PC? Not sure I can answer this question. 2/ I would like to update the map (North ...

Re: Earlier versions of maps
Not to cross post between your threads, but each Garmin device has to have it's own independent, specific unlock code for each map version you try to put on it. Just because you may have an older map version unlocked for (1) 660 does not mean you can install the same map on a 2nd 660 without it's ow...

Re: Tread app drains battery on Android phone
I had a similar issue with the Drive app when it was 1st released. I couldn't stop it from loading in the background when I didn't need it. I ended up totally uninstalling it when I didn't need to use it. it was a pain, but it was the only way I found at the time. I have noticed that since my last i...

Re: CN NA 2025.10
Just today I had my 550 connected for map updates and the last map I could access and activate was 2023.1 which I was able to do. Download to PC, and then use map installer to put it on SD card. Worked fine with no issues. After 2023.1 it's my impression that the map data FORMAT(not size) is beyond ...

Re: Distribute routes on multible zumo gps's
Based on what you have provided, it's to hard to say. Too many variables. Are you being given a "route" or a "track log". What format are the routes being provided in. What map was the routes based upon. Do all 15 riders have the exact same map. Others will chime in as well I'm s...

Re: Road Names Missing Letters
Unless you switch to OSM maps for your 550, you cannot get new maps from Garmin.
They dropped the 550 from map updates earlier this year.

Re: The "NEXT STREET" listing at top doesn't work
So I'll mumble as well on this, have you tried different zoom levels?
Just a thought.

Re: Garmin withdraw map updates for older devices
What are osm maps? I can't update my 665. Strange 660 still gets updates but not 665. There are links to many sources here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/Download Have only one active routable map on your Zumo at a time. Also make sure that you use the same map on your PC wh...
