20 Most Recent Mitac DigiWalker C230 GPS Receiver Questions & Answers

the first place to look is ebay, look for a broken model, as is. if you are handy, you can replace it yourself.

go to the map screen and touch the radar symbol that you want to erase from map. It will bring up a menu with more functions. Choose remove cam ;)

If it's the battery, it will cost you in service about 50 euro. But first you can try to open it and see if the battery is connected ok (sometimes that connector can be out)

mio service charges $100. you an buy a new unit for $50 n Ebay

the maps are on the 1gb sd card in the side of your c220 unit.
If it's missing, get a 1gb sd card and find a computer that will accept sd cards and your cd that came with your gps, then download the maps from the cd to the sd card.
Your c220 only has 4 states on the unit itself.

The c230 has all the maps on the unit but only 1 million POIs versus 3 1/2 million on the c220

The C220 comes with an SD card with all the maps. Or an SD card can be created with the included CD

Which same problem!!!!

I would appreciate if you can explain the issue that your are facing with C230 gps. Is that regarding Map, or is this regarding other issue?


Thanks for using Fixya.

the c230 only has 1 million POIs. The C220 has 3 1/2 million POIs. Thats why.

This is a common problem that Mio acknowledges, and from what they told me in my phone call to them, they will address that issue in an update which they are working on "right now", but I fixed my gps, and unlocked a whole bunch of other neat features like an mp3 player by unlocking my Mio C230:

This guy's work with the c230 is amazing, and everything works great..... it basically just turned my 100 dollar GPS into a 200 or even 300 dollar GPS. Very cool stuff.

Hope that helps.

If you were panning the map while navigating, the map on the display will stay where you panned to; despite the fact that you are still moving. You need to exit "pan" mode by pressing the PAGE button (right side, top button). Good Luck.

I got mytec GPS long time ago, need to upgrade, can you just tell me how to do. Mat
