GPs not Booting past Logo

Hi, I updated my Nuvi 3590LMT the other day via Garmin Express (Lifetime free Map), and now it won't boot up past the logo, when it reaches the logo it beeps, and switches itself off. I tried to reset it, but it refuses to do so, and beeps at the same point, as when trying to boot.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

zumo 595 Alert voice and volume?

Do you know how to get spoken text alerts, like for example:
"speedlimit is 50" if you ride to fast, or
"speedcamera in 500m"

I can barly hear the alerts due to the "Bong" sound and the low volume of this sound.
In the settings all selections are set to 100%

Thanks for your help

Stop device from going into MTP mode when connected to car c

Hi all,

I have a Garmin Drive 50LMT, and whenever I connect the charging cable to my car's USB port, it immediately goes into MTP mode. I.e it shows the screen with the orange icon showing the device connected with a cable. I have a lot of trouble trying to get it back to viewing maps.

Is there a hack or a way to permanently disable MTP mode, so I can just have it charging ...
