They where demo maps! you can buy a full blown map from LIGHTINTHEBOX.COM for fifty bucks

    You have to watch out People! for the low priced GPS units. Most brands from China only come with a demo map that locks out in a short period of time. Read the fine print at the very bottom of the sales add. Some honest sellers will reveal the Mapping as only a demo. OK here is the web site to buy a full blown mapping software.

You most likely need a firmware update. My company designs and programs GPS units and software and about 3 months ago the government changed the sats. in such a way that certain Chinese gps units stopped receiving data. Email me at [email protected] and tell me what you can about the make and model of the unit itself and I can see what I can do about getting you a firmware upgrade.

I have iLive IBD704 Bluetooth Movie/Music and it won't power up with batteries. I bought brand new batteries and triple checked the alignment. I still get no power. Works fine with electrical cord.

Question edited for full 'make model (what it is)'.
Question moved from 'Power Up Computers & Internet'.

Check alignment again and if it is correct, the Customer Support number is also on this page.

I got the VR3 gps with back-up camera less than a month ago, the first day it worked perfectly fine, then when I installed the route 66 stuff it started showing me some really long message saying to...

Ok so this happened to my gps after an improper shut down. Here is how I fixed it. Follow each step carefully and make sure your gps is fully charged before beginning.

1st open up the route 66 disk to see files not actually accessing the program. Right click on the disk and tell it to open from my computer. you will see many files one folder will say memoryimage.

2 Then on the gps click on settings and go to backlight setting backlight to the dimmest stetting. Now go into power and tell your gps to never standby.

3 Plug your gps into your computer then turn it on. Windows mobile will come up click on connect without setting up your device. Under file management click on browse contents of your device. You will now see what is actually on your gps. Open NANDFlash.

4 Now select all items except the route66 folder in the memoryimage folder of the disk and move them into the NANDFlash folder of your gps. When it asks how to transfer tell it to replace current folders with the same name. It will then take several hours to transfer.

5 On mine the route 66 exe file would not transfer back into the actual route 66 folder so I created a new folder then transferred the route 66 exe file from the route 66 folder in memoryimage of the disk into my new folder in NANDFlash. Once it is transferred you should be able to click navigation on the gps and have your gps load route 66. Your maps will be locked.

6. I kind of forgot how I did the next step because I cannot get back to where I was because I have already activated my gps. Go into the main menu from inside route 66 and either enter the extras folder or route 66 settings. Somewhere in one of these you will find a place to activate your route 66. It will then give you a website and an id for your gps. Go to the website and enter your gps id and the code from the voucher code card which came with your gps. Once entered on the website you will receive an activation code which you will have to enter into your gps. I recommend you turn off your gps then turn it back on and give it time to find you. You can go into gps status to watch for a signal and once you have a good signal it may take several minutes to locate you. After it has found you it should be working fine.
