DriveSmart 65

Hello Volks, how do I install maps on the DriveSmart 65?
It won't work via wifi, it stops for 2 minutes and throws an error... via Garmin Express it starts activating maps and throws an error. I don't have anything on the device or on the card. Only a couple of folders of 1 megabyte each.

DriveSmart series device for off-road driving

Hi,

I would like to use a DriveSmart series device for off-road driving (ATV).

Is it possible to modify the software so that TOPO maps work and there is an off-road driving profile for dirt roads to avoid asphalt?
In short, I don't want to buy a TREAD series device.

Thank you in advance for your answer

Camper 895 and APK files

Hi everyone. My Cemper 895 updated its system this August. After the update, all the Android apps I installed from APK files stopped working. I wrote to Garmin support. They replied that third-party APKs are no longer supported. The ability to use native Android apps was the only positive aspect of this 700-euro piece of plastic. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? For example, by downgrading to the older firmware. Thank you.

It just brings up the splash screen then goes blank then brings up the splash screen again. I've tried several USB cables and different ports.

Since I don't really need the USB connectivity and just want to use it in the ...
