Posted this in the Venu 5.60 software update thread and received a reply from Garmin-Isabella that different regions receive updates on a different schedule. At this time, this update is not currently released to APAC/SEA devices.
Followed up with a reply clarifying that 100% available does not include APAC/SEA even though they're part of the same planet. H3nny asked for the schedule for APAC/SEA devices.
Not a word/update since then. This was three weeks ago.
Venu SW 5.73 Beta was released 19 hours ago, thought that might be a straightforward way to get current since according to Garmin, APAC/SEA just disappeared off their radar.
Followed the installation instructions and guess what? They do not work! Not that surprised anymore.
Every time I drop the GUPDATE.GCD file into \GARMIN and disconnect my Venu, the update does not install and when I reconnect my Venu to the computer, the GUPDATE.GCD file I dropped is missing.
Would help if Garmin were more responsive. Released instructions that worked and cared about their customer experience. I dread requiring Garmin Customer Support at some point here in India. Fairly sure it won't be a stellar experience.
Que sera, sera.
