if I want to use Basecamp (which is dead) to plan routes in EU, the GPS must be plugged in to the Mac, which slowly reads in the maps. So I had to pay another $100 to get *Garmin's* SD Card with the same maps I've already paid for so that they'd work on the XT. Both my old Montana and my XT function, I am still working to trust the XT). (The idea was just to switch SD Cards between devices, you still only are able to use the map on one device. Theoretically, Basecamp will also tell you about any map updates you paid for (different from Device software), but you have to use Express to download the map updates, sloooooBut, the EU maps that I downloaded onto my own SD Cards in my old Montana do not work in the XT, and the maps cannot be imported from my Mac. *then* you find out what version you now have. You must choose Garmin Express > About Garmin Express to see what version you have, then visit the Garmin site, search for Express, then download and install. Program Name > Check for Updates is a MacOS standard, but Garmin Express does not have.

On Macs, all software works pretty much the same way. The system never does the same thing the same way twice.

And now that the new units have Android OS, the problem is even worse. Garmin does much better with PC and has never done well with Mac. Sometimes Express comes on, sometimes Android starts. Express is also set to come on when the device is connected to the Max. I have Express set to automatically download updates but it does not do it. There you can see if your devices up to date, but not the Express software unless you check your version and then go to the Garmin site. Sometimes Android File Transfer fires up and you have to turn that off. When you plug a GPS into a Mac, nothing happens except it goes into file tranfer/communication mode. I don't find the process of keeping current to be onerous at all.

Once it's done that, it checks the Nav for firmware and map versions, and if the are newer versions it asks if I want to upgrade them.

Then it checks the version of Garmin Express and offers to update itself if needed. My PC is set up to load Garmin Express when it detects my Nav VI.

If you are already a member of the BMW MOA, please log in to the forum in the upper right hand corner of this page. A $15 plus tax fee to change your device isn’t cheap, especially if you’re the type of person who likes to regularly switch to different phones. This is welcome news for Metro by T-Mobile customers. The decision was met with a lot of negativity by Metro customers, and now it looks like Metro customers will be able to avoid that fee if they want to. Recently, though, Metro by T-Mobile began enforcing it for all device changes, which it said was being done “to keep pricing low.” The $15 device change fee has been around for awhile, but customers said that you could previously get around it by contacting customer support. “All current Metro customers can now complete a device (IMEI) change free of charge by calling 611, *228 or 888-8metro8 and using our automated system,” says Metro.īecause your SIM card is linked to your phone’s IMEI on Metro by T-Mobile, you need to contact customer service when you want to change phones.

Metro by T-Mobile confirmed to me today that customers can now change their device for free over the phone.

Now it looks like it may have backed off that policy a bit. Metro by T-Mobile made headlines earlier this week when it confirmed that it would begin enforcing a $15 plus tax fee any time that a customer wanted to change a device.
