WrongwayUK Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Roll on the next beta. Quote Link to comment
+zeus661 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 I have the Beta 3.68 on mine now can I, or should I install 3.70 over it? Which is better? Thanks Quote Link to comment
WrongwayUK Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 I am assuming that 3.70 is slightly better than the last 3.68 beta going by the numbers. Quote Link to comment
+zeus661 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 A couple times doing the updates I have notices the profiles change. As an example when I went to 3.68 (Beta) the "automotive" profile was the same as my geocaching profile. Same background and icons. Anyone else notice that happening? I am wondering if there is a way to do a factory reset to reset it like it just came out of the box, then update it? Quote Link to comment
+taeke Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Fixed an issue that could occur while reviewing certain geocache descriptions Still not fixed. Keeps stumbling over geocache descriptions which contain HTML-tables Quote Link to comment

I had something similar when my profiles got screwed and I wanted to return to default. After emailing the beta team they sent me the default profiles in a zip file which copies to your garmin/profiles folder. I can send a copy if you wash. PM me an email address if you wish a copy.

+Cacheoholic Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Sometimes for some reason the active profile settings can change during software update. The best way around this is to either make a new “Update Profile” and change to this profile before updating or change to an existing profile you never use before software updates.

savant9 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 It seems there is also an update to the Time Zone Map from v7.0 - v9.0, unless of course I have missed that in the past. Quote Link to comment
