Head Unit now has solid bar post Firmware update.

This morning connected my Garmin Edge 820 to pc and Garmin express to upload firmware update, as been a while. I went to disconnect and noticed I now have a solid bar running left to right at bottom of screen. I do have pic's. I now regret updating head unit. It still works just annoying and does obscures some info.

Last firmware release (12.70) was over three years ago so most all 820 users have been on it for a long time. This is not a problem I've heard of so it's very unlikely to be related to the new firmware. If it were mine, I'd try a factory reset and see if that resolves it. Could also be a hardware problem.

Is this a new unit as I'm also surprise that you received an update. The only update that I think you would have received is an update of the Time zone map, which would not affect the unit this way.
