Garmin GPS 2012 models (3400, 3500, 25x5, 24x5 US series) has a limitation irritating to many: does not show the name of the street where you pass, only the name of the side streets that we will find ahead.
Like others, I thought that was a problem inherent of the firmware and that had no solution, but, fortunately, I was wrong. The solution is very simple: just Clean User Data in Diagnost Page, choose Luxemburg as a country (among others) and your language. It is simple as that.
Below the
step by step for users less acquainted:
1. from the home page of the gps, enter in the Volume page, press and hold the upper-right corner of the screen to enter in the "Diagnostic Page"
2. click on "Clear All User Data", but before backup your data if necessary (read note below).
3. gps restarts and requested the name of the country. Select "Luxemburg and press OK.
4. following appears "Select Language", select "Other"/OK/your language/OK.
5. Change in Settings, the language of the keyboard, if applicable.
6. Ended procedures is necessary to tune patiently satellites, time-consuming process because the system thinks are in Luxembourg ..
Then test on the move on the street and everything will work perfectly.
* Backup of user data:
copy the current.gpx file of the GPX folder of Gps before of the reset (clear all user data, clear non vol, etc.) to any location on your computer, but changing the file name to current1.gpx. To restore the data copy back the file to the GPX folder of the Gps. Or use Basecamp or Mapsource for this.
** tested in Nuvi 3490 and 3790 mod with 3490 fw, so should be functional with all families of 2012 firmware already mentioned. It also works in "Pedestrian mode"
