streetpilot c310 software???

Postby meadyyyy » Sun Jun 22, 2014 8:37 pm

hiya all,

found a garmin streetpilot c310 in loft of house when I was doing the insulation (been there for years I recon) anyway, it charged and powered up to my supprise, got map for it but it appears to be American software as address search asks for state, cant find a way of doing postcode or street search, tried garmin webupdate and it did an update but still usa version asking for state.
is there a way of putting uk version software on it (if it exists) or something else so can search/goto postcode or street

thanks in advance

What map do you use? It could be, that this issue depends on a map image > 2GB or on the incompatible Unicode version.

am using City Navigator Europe (Unicode) NT 2014.40.gmap selecting uk-ireland areas on 512mb sd card installed via mapinstall, map loads fine, tap "where to" and can select city and type city name, select it and navigate to, or select transit and find airport and so on, but if I select address or intersection it asks for state and can go no further.

Try the non Unicode version! It's a well known issue, that address search with unicode maps don't work properly on some older devices.
