Don't do anything else to your Nuvi. It just needs some Medicine, I'm sure that Caty will send you by PM later.
You are going to need an empty microSD card.

Yes, got it guys!!! Catymag, you ROCK my friend, you save me from sending my GPS from Costa Rica to the US and back, or buying a new one, I made a donation, but I`ll keep donating to support you guys.
Thanks Again.
We should contract out Caty [who does indeed rock] to Garmin support who want to charge AU$199 + shipping to supply a 'refurbished' exchange 3790 for this same problem experienced by out-of-warranty units. Seems a good system, their software breaks the unit and then they change you to fix it. Reminds me of a crooked glazier who used to slip a card under the door of local businesses and then the next night chuck a rock thru their front window.
In all fairness though, Garmin do give a 3 months warranty and it's also the same exchange charge even if your nuvi has been run over. :lol:
Hi guys,
I converted my 3790T to 3490, but I reverted back to 3790 because of the infamous satellite reception issue. Now, I don't know why, I lost many functions of the GPS (3D buildings, Videoplayer, bluetooth, ecc.)!
The GPS About says "nuvi 37xx". Unfortunately I don't have a backup of NV41 (I modded before the backup post...).
Caty, can you do the miracle for me, please...? :)
Thank you!
I wiil , I sent you a pm ;)
NOTE:
Just to earn time, who has this problem ,send me by pm a screen of his 37xx Settings/About.
It's a precautionary measure ;) Thanks
My circumstance is identical to gabchs, including being a new subscriber. My 3790T locked up, restarted and is now very Plain Jane (37xx displayed), no bluetooth or voice. If someone (read Catymag here :GJ: ) could help me, I would be most appreciative.....
Thanks in advance and I enjoy reading the posts.
@smore
You need to send catymag a PM, see the note in her post above yours. To send her a screenshot link of your About screen showing '37xx', click on her username in that post then select 'Private Message'.
In Nuvi go to Settings/Display/Screenshot.
Go to Settings/Device/About and take the pic.
Attach Nuvi USB and go to folder SCRN, there you'll find your screen pic to upload
Upload it to Imgur and add link in pm (not in this thread)

Please help Caty
Thank You !!!
:mn:
note by catymag :pic removed it contains unit id, I'll send you a pm
@CCVR
That screenshot with your Unit ID needs to be sent by Private Message only. By posting it publicly, you risk your unit being cloned by someone. Big problem particularly if you have LifeTime Maps! Caty can retrieve the link even thought i've removed it though ;).
LOL, I think caty & i removed the link at the same time!
