Garmin Mobile XT Q&A

[Sil3ncer]

Currently, the one I downloaded has a gmapsupp.img file in it. Will it be OK if I copied this to my Garmin folder on my HTC TP and renaming it to something else, say gmapsupp2.img? I don't wanna override the one I already have.

Rename to GMAPPROM.IMG or GMAPSUP2.IMG (note the single "p").

GMAPSUP2.IMG or GMAPSUPP2.IMG?

GMAPSUP2.IMG

Thanks for the swift replies, dvpro.

Don't mention it...

In the future, if I download more maps, let's say map of US, I rename the subsequent maps gmapsup3, gmapsup4, etc. right?

EDIT: Also, the map I downloaded from MFM are maps of Singapore, Brunei and the whole of Malaysia right?

[dvpro]

Errr... no. GMXT data card can only recognize GMAPSUPP.IMG, GMAPPROM.IMG and GMAPSUP2.IMG. If you have more than 3 IMG maps, you may combine them using GMapTool.

Yes.

Hi. Newbie here.
I'm using GMXT with my Dell PDA (WM5) + Holux GPS BT Receiver.
Is there a setting in GMXT that will enable my PDA's Bluetooth whenever I startup GMXT?
Currently, I need to enable my PDA's Bluetooth manually, wait for a while (around 10 secs) for the pairing/connection to the BT receiver, and then start the GMXT program.
It will be convenient if I can just start up the GMXT program and everything will connect automatically.
Thanks.

Sorry, 1 more question.
Is there a way to disable the Licence Agreement screen whenever GMXT starts up?
Thanks.

Hi vacuumes5, it's been quite a while since I last used GMXT with a BT receiver. Can you try this out (not sure if would work though):
1. Go to BT settings in PDA, and remove BT receiver pairing.
2. At Mode tab, Turn off BT.
3. Turn on BT receiver.
4. Start GMXT, tap at GPS Receiver Status icon (top left).
5. Tap Disable > Use BT GPS > Enable.

No. But if you wait long enough, the page will close automatically.

Hi dvpro.
Thanks for the prompt reply.

I turned off the BT in my PDA (as per your advise no.2)
Turned on BT receiver (advise no.3)
When I Enable "use bluetooth GPS" (advise no.5), I got the following message :
Flight mode must be turned off before Bluetooth can be enabled.

In my PDA, when I turn off Flight Mode, my PDA Bluetooth turned On.
That's the same as what I have been doing, turning on the PDA bluetooth manually.

I didn't try your advise no.1 though. Cos I think my BT receiver need to be paired right?

Thanks.
