Jawawa and Zumo XT2

Post by gwilki »

Has anyone managed to get Jawawa to see a USB-connected XT2? I have had excellent results from Jawawa on older Garmin GPS units. I connected my XT2 to my PC today, windows saw it as a drive, but Jawawa said that it could not see it.

Thank you

Windows will only see an XT or XT2 as a media device, not mass storage. Windows will not assign a drive letter, which is what JaVaWa requires.

I seem to remember using a JaVaWa utility to modify some map names by copying the map to a USB stick, running the utility to modify the map, and then copying the modified map to the Zumo.

Hi Anders,
The zumo XT2 (and XT) use MTP exclusively, JaVaWa Device Manager cannot acces them. There is no workaround for it.

Jaco
This is the answer from Jaco at JaVaWa on my question why it dosen´t work wit XT2.
