GPS SYSTEMS HAVE A TENDENCY TO LOSE CONNECTIVITY TO SATILLITES BECAUSE OF BAD WEATHER, CLOUD COVER, TUNNEL ENTRANCE, BAD OR NO POWER, BATTERY LIFE HAS BEEN EXPENDED, HAZARD OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE TO GPS SYSTEMS, AND IMPROPER VEHICLE MOUNTING AND HAND HELD POSITION. FREE SOLUTIONS 1. ALWAYS PLACE YOUR GPS DEVICE IN THE UPPERMOST PORTION OF YOUR VEHICLE SO THAT THE GPS SIGNAL MAY EASILY LOCATE YOUR DEVICE EVEN WHEN THE WEATHER IS BAD 2. KEEP YOUR BATTERY CHARGED ONLY WHEN IT NEEDS IT MOST AND AVOID CHARGING OFTEN 3. IF YOU OVERCHARGE YOUR GPS DEVICE, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE BATTERY LEAKAGE, WHICH CAN EAT AWAY AT YOUR CLOTHING, DESTROY YOUR DEVICE IN SECONDS, AND CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE SEATS 4. YOUR GPS DEVICE HAS A TENDENCY TO FREEZE BECAUSE OF THE SIM AND MEMORY CHIPS LOCATED WITHIN IT 5. YOU CAN FIX THE FREEZING PROBLEM BY REMOVING THE SIM CHIP AND MEMORY CHIP AND RESTARTING YOUR SYSTEM 6. OTHER FREEZE PROBLEMS OCCUR BECAUSE THE DEVICE IS COLD WHEN IT IS KEPT IN THE VEHICLE AND CHIP CREEK OCCURS WHERE THE DEVICES MICROCHIPS BECOME LOOSE AND TIGHTEND BECAUSE OF WARM AND COLDER AIR FLUCTUATIONS. IT IS BEST TO KEEP THE DEVICE IN A PURSE OR ON A TABLE WHERE IT IS NOT SUBJECT TO CONSTANT TEMP. CHANGE 7. PREVENTION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE IS BEST SOLVED BY: interference from devices located nearby, and even a radio turned on and located really close to your unit. This is normally known as electromagnetic interference to electronics and is very common
My 14-bct is frozen to
Hi,
This is a common problem with this set. There are two small tricks that might work.Unplug from power supply and let the battery drain out completely and restart it after few hours.If you have already tried that, then attach the GPS to the computer and see if your computer recognizes it. If that is not the case, unfortunately, this is a firmware problem and the unit needs to be re-flashed. You need to send the unit to Nextar for firmware reloading.
Let me know,if needed further assistance.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
Not finding new address when traveling
not all map/address info is on any GPS, there are mistakes in the software map program, this is a common complaint, also map software that is more then one year old is out of date as well.
How do you update nextar x4-t if the this model is
Well, that is going to be near impossible.
You can TRY, with no guarantee, to find out what map company makes the maps for your Nextar. It's either IntelliNab or Odyssey.
Then you would have to load new map data direct from those map companies onto your SD card and pray it works.
From experience it usually ends up crashing the GPS. If Nextar doesn't offer an update, then you're probably out of luck.

Sounds like a software problem. Do you have a backup of the software? This can sometimes happen when you install updates. If no backup of the software then you need to contact the manufacturer or find someone wih the same software to back your up.
