You just need to get to know how it works, I had the same problem with it, but my son made it work for him with no problem. I can't tell you how it works because I let my kid do navigation in our hunting trips.

I did the update, went smooth. Do you know is there is a comprehensive list of what was fixed/updated?I have some issues driving on a divided highway (Dale Mabry in Tampa) when you go by all the turn lanes between median, the gps tells you to "stay right ahead", every half mile or so, very annoying and not needed. I am already on the road I should be on. Any word on the volume, I have sebring convertible, with the top up it is noisier than the average car, really can't even hear the gps.

Hi, actually the Auto / Manual Track button did not work so it wouldn't record. I sent it back. But I am thinking of trying a new one because it really is a nice unit.

Sports Tracker only works with its own app (a very good one) check on their website whether it works with the Android version on your m obile!

Yes, you can track where you are going. Push the menu button until you get to the options screen, there is an icon labelled Tracks. Select it and at the top of the tracks menu there is a tracking on/off button, highlight the on option and hit enter. It will record your tracks. When you're done go back into the tracks menu and turn tracking off and SAVE IT, it will save the tracks and give you the option to name it or change the colour of the tracks. If you turn the gps off and restart it in a different location with tracking still on it will snap a line from your last known point to where you reacquired a signal. After you save your tracks you can clear the memory to make room for other tracks, just DON'T DELETE THE SAVED FILE. I've noticed when you save your tracks it will sometimes straighten out your tracks and make it more linear that what was originally recorded, so be careful. I've also used a garmin colorado 400t, the tracks on that are way more detailed, so you may want to consider getting one of those, but it's not as rugged as the 76csx and it's a bit less user friendly. Hope that helps.

My boyfriend has a Garmin Venture HC that we had been using for geocaching. We both have macs and wanted to update the device so we could upload maps onto it. The firmware update for the software took over 20 minutes and never finished. Since then the device won't turn on at all. We have done every possible thing to make it work and nothing has made a difference. We are now looking at buying a new GPS. Hope this helps even though it really sucks because it was a great GPS device before.

I have not encountered that problem. It alerts me a little more than 1/2 mile before turn then keeps me posted every so often until the turn. Wish I could give u more insight.

I can only think that you must have pressed the track mode button before the OK button, as this action would make Spot go back to track after sending out the OK message. If you did not press the "Track" button previously, it should not go to track at all. You may have a hardware problem. Turn it off, pull the batteries, try to start it up again and hopefully it will reset. If not, I would suggest talking to Spot via email.

I am also looking for the best unit; especially for rural areas as we do a lot of hiking. We have been depending on cell phone GPS navigation but it sure doesn't work well in the Far West nor on a recent hiking trip to the Great Smokys and Blue Ridge Mountains. I am thinking of the Garmin nvi 2797LMT 7-Inch or the Garmin nvi 3597LMTHD 5-Inch. Not sure what one I will pick but there are 100's to choose from and reviews are all over the place. Wish Amazon provided for comparisons. Try Best Buy for details, they do a much better job of showing all features and allow comparisons. Then search the web for that unit and get the best price (not always on Amazon).

I bought a used garmin and a cable later. They did hook up after I loaded Picasa (sp?) however either my device was too old or I was not the original purchaser and could not up date my device. But I might be wrong because I am an internet idiot. I am a writer. On SCRIBD I publish as SpecialDad.

it counts, but not accurately. And there is no way to edit the info on TomTom's MySport website or apps. I sync with RunKeeper which does allow me to edit the distance, but since TomTom only transfers the most basic of information from the watch, prepare to bust out your maths

Honestly... I do not know... good question for the Garmin folks... Have you tried the garmin support forums?

I've used this HR with Digifit on an Android. Used to work great (~6 months ago). Now it consistently does not initially and repeatedly disconnects during workouts. I'm not sure if it's the HR or the app, but it's extremely frustrating.I've experimented with the iDoMove app, but haven't used it enough to really comment on it.

I dont think it matters what phone app you use, android or iphone, it the device itself. personally i think its about 10% reliable if that. i have the trackr which is the same thing just in different packaging (From what i have read.) btw don't put feedback on any threads linked to them. They deleted my comment and made it so i cannot comment on any threads, Like pretty much saying what i am here.
