Thread: Transform a Nuvi 37xx in a Nuvi 34xx for dummies

In MyGarmin (after the conversion) are the software updates offered meant for 37xx or 34xx?
Do we need to use just webupdater?

After conversion you have 34xx unit. All updates are offered for this model. You can use webupdater , but with caution.

I have 3790->34xx to and have same problem like aiexbadboy.

How about satellite signal accuracy while the car "jump" ?

CN EUR 2012.30. I reset nuvi multiple times.

Satellite signal is full.

Satellite signal quality and accuracy would not apply to the "jump" problem in this case as the problem seems to occur in simulation mode.

It's more likely the "magnetic" snap to road positioning that gives circular events between routing and simulated satellite positioning calculation. Often seen in roundabouts and city streets with multiple junctions where the automatic zoom also affects visual feedback of the problem.

Gradually getting there. Voice Command working now (though several menu options are listed but not available with my language files limiting usefulness).
After conversion 3790 to 3490 should there be a \SID folder in .system?
My G2S (Traffic Trends) folder is now empty and I have no SID folder.
MyGarmin tells me a software update is available but as my registration details refer to 3790 model. I'm not sure whether it is offering updates for the 37xx or for the 34xx. Can anyone clarify.
Webupdater shows some 34xx updates but only language files (that I don't need).
