Thread: Simple Guide to setting up Garmin Mobile XT on S60 and WM

Caty, you might know the answer to this, I have a running GXT version 5.50 installed on my E71 but every time, I start the program, it asks me if I want to turn the bluetooth on or not. Even if I select NO to the bluetooth option, it works just fine, even the bluetooth is already on, than I dont get the massage. I know that some how it asks for it (bluetooth) even though it uses the built in AGPS.????????

you should have the option in settings to choose just internal AGPS, if you selected it
it shouldnt ask for it

I got both on my phone and I used the correct filenames (I think?) but I don't see any options around to "choose map" that Garmin should use...?

you should have them both if you have the 2 unlocking files in your garmin folder

Hi Caty,

perhaps you also can give me a hint how I could use the map with my Garmin eTrex Venture HC?
There is no SD-Card slot or anything, I can just connect the device by USB, but nevertheless it does not appear in Windoz.

Thanks a lot!

no if you cant see your device in windows it's impossible to install garmin,
try to update drivers
It's this one?

Code:

I see a 256 MB microSD memory card among accessories, you must have a slot

Hi Caty,

no, it's this one:

The "HC" devices unfortunately do not have a slot, only "HCx" devices do have one.
I'm quite sure I use the newest driver, but I will try a firmware update, perhaps that helps to solve the problem.

Hi Caty,

I updated drivers and firmware but still it does not work. Obviously I have to use MapSource to upload a map. Any idea how I can import the img-file to MapSource in order to first unlock it and then put it onto my device?

Thank you very much...

IMG files must be imported directly in your device, no mapsource needed if locked look at the guide unlocking trick works on every device

Unfortunately your device has only 24mb of internal memory so really is unsuitable for for displaying .img files of this size.It would be possible to get a copy of City Navigator DVD which you could install on your PC,unlock with jetmouse then transfer a couple of map segments to your gps.I used a Gpsmap 60c which had 56mb in this way for some time b4 I got a larger unit.
