Neues Beta-Update 3.63 Beta

Einstellungen - Profile - Halterungsprofil
Da schmiert mir mit der beta das Teil gnadenlos ab.

Den Fehler habe ich gestern gemeldet, wurde jedoch bislang nicht auf Garmin: Fehler melden publiziert.

Sind noch andere betroffen? Im Geocaching Forum der Schweiz sind mindestens zwei weitere Montana-Besitzer betroffen.

Hello Montana-Team,

thank you for the new FW 3.63 and its new features. I like most of them very much.
Unfortunately I still encounter many old an new bugs:


1. (new in 3.63) The new TripComputer page and functions are very useful but now the trip computer settings are stored system-wide and no more profile specific. I "hope" this is a bug and not intended because I like the profile specific trip computer settings very much!

Method:
- configure the trip computer page
- change the profile
- this (and any other) profile now have the same trip computer settings


2. (new in 3.63) Set Mount Profile (under profile settings), trying to change from "No Change" to anything else results in the white screen of death and shuts the unit down.


3. The Montana stops talking at the car-navigation in the car-cradle after 3-4 new route calculations, which were triggered automatically by a different route selection.

Method:
- Montana in the car cradle set to the nüvi-mode, City Navigator Europe active
- start a routing
- drive another way then suggested by the Montana
- Montana recalculates the route
- do this 3-4 times
-> Montana stops "talking", no vocal route instructions are given any more
- only a power cycle get rid of that problem till the next 3-4 recalculations.


4. The Montana looses settings when plugged in and out from the car-cradle. I.e. the voice/volume is muted (new in 3.63).

Method:
- Montana is set to automatic changing profiles the plugged in and out the car cradle. In my case it switches between a "car-navigation" profile and a "hiking" profile.
- now sometimes the active maps in the profiles have changed then formerly set in the specific profile. (hiking maps are active in the car-profile and vice versa).
- the volume is set to mute


5. When the Montana is powered up by the alarm-clock it fades to a white screen and crashes.

Method:
- Set the Alarm-Clock in the Montana and let it power down
- Wait till the alarm gets active and powers up the Montana
- Stop the alarm and start using the Montana
-> see graphic errors on the screen while using the Montana until it fades to a white screen.
-> you have to reboot the Montana to use it again


6. The Navi-mode "nüvi" view is very slow (takes a long time to
start recalculation, turns are no longer updated) when the logging
is set to "Automatic" -> "often" or "very often". If the logging
is switched to "normal" nüvi works well again.


7. If a waypoint is created in BaseCamp with an approximity-alarm
and this point is then transferred to the Montana the
approximity-alarm is lost.




Nice to have:

I. If you navigate with a track it's never clear in
which direction the track points. Small arrows on the track would
be very helpful!

II. Taping on the GPS-reception bar should result in opening the satellite page, like it's handled at the Oregons.

III. Taping on the north-arrow in the map-screen should result in northing the map when you're using "track up" or the "car-view" (like it's done at the Oregons).

IV. The barometric altimeter should the deactivateable to get the GPS-elevation stored in the tracklog. Very usefull in airplanes with a pressurised cabin. (Like it's done in other Garmin models when you set the device to "fixed elevation").
