Just put a new SD card in the XT and turn it on. It does the formatting for you. I've never been able to get the XT to format a card. I think it might format a blank card, but it seems like all the cards I've purchased recently have arrived pre-formatted as exFAT, and the XT will not recognize or r...

When you start a route, the Zumo first calculates a route from your current location to the selected Start point. The Zumo did not know where you where until it acquired a signal, so it sent you to that point first before beginning the planned route.. That's one reason why it is best to plan your ro...

I have just enough computer skills to be dangerous, literally. I understand zero of what you are saying. I just want know how to remove the excess themes from my XT. I connect it to my Win11 laptop and go to zumoXT/internal storage/themes/map. The names of the files I see do not match the names of ...

Your duplicates are probably using different file names, but the displayed name is actually contained in the file. Likely the theme was modified in a text editor and saved with a different file name, but the <TITLE> field was not changed. Every theme begins with a section like this: <?xml version=&q...

I rely on voice instructions for long stretches, so I can easily miss seeing the track diverge from my route. Using a wide, black track puts a border on the route, giving me reassurance that I am still on route. If I don't see the border when I do look at the screen, I know I've gone astray. I've a...

The option to display the track is not available if you are using Explore. That's one of the reasons many of us do not use Explore at all. There are detailed instructions here somewhere to disable Explore, but I think it involves removing the Explore app from your phone, a reset of the XT to restore...

There is probably a better way, but I usually take a peek at the files with a good text editor. (For windows - Notepad++)
There is usually some clear text in the first few lines that tells me what is in the file.

Basecamp actually makes decent choices to keep travel time short with Faster Time. The 590/595 did pretty well also. It is the XT that tends to disregard total time when selecting "faster" (major) roads. It will add lots of time and distance just to use a highway when there is a shorter an...

I misunderstood where you were finding the categories... I don't think I've ever noticed or used those Find options before. I do now see all seventeen categories in the list, but it does not matter which map I select. The categories here seem to restrict results to only the selected category. If I s...
