Cannot connect my samsung phone to garmin gps using bluetooth The phone is a Samsung SGH-T456 and the Garmin GPS is a 265WT. They can sync to each other but the Garmin does not show the answer screen when the cell phone is called and it is not possible to call from the Garmin screen out through the cell phone. If I call the cell phone and press the talk button on the cell phone, then the incoming voice can be heard from the Garmin but talking to the Garmin is not heard on the outside phone.

Does your Garmin Nuvi 265WT GPS get stuck or freeze at startup, or when loading maps?

Looking to reflash the firmware / system software for your Garmin GPS device?

Replacing the brains of your Garmin GPS is the surest way to resolve freezing, hanging, and erratic behavior. Keeping the system software and firmware in your Garmin GPS current and up-to-date is also the best way to keep it performing well.

Your GPS may not start properly at all, and display a 'System Software Missing" message. This tip will describe how to restore your Garmin Nuvi GPS system software using Garmin Webupdater.

ce00fb3.jpg

  1. The first step is to download the WebUpdater software.
  2. Plug in your Nuvi GPS into your PC with the USB cord.
  3. Run the WebUpdater program to install it to your computer and update the system software of your GPS.

Your Garmin Nuvi should now be running as good as new.

I hope that helps.

I wish to erase phone numbers, transferred from my cell phone to my Garmin 265WT when pairing the phone to the Garmin. These phone numbers came from my cell phone and I cannot remember who is associated...

I can help you with the phone numbers on your Garmin Nuvi 265WT.

The phone numbers transferred to your Nuvi are only supposed to be available when your phone is paired to your cell phone. Changing the entry on your phone should allow that entry to show up changed the next time it is paired with the Nuvi. Sometimes, a bluetooth mix up causes entries to be duplicated or entries' phone numbers to get repeated.

To correct this, I recommend backing up your favorites, clearing all user data (this hard reset will remove the phonebook info from your nuvi), and then updating your Nuvi' firmware to make sure the nuvi and cell phone bluetooth process runs as smoothly as possible in the future.

Follow these three steps to take to get your Nuvi 265WT running like new:

  1. Back up your Favorites.
  2. Perform a Hard Reset.
  3. Download and then run Garmin 265WT WebUpdater to replace its firmware / system software.

I hope that helps.

Iwant to know if my 265wt is compatible with my sanyo scp-7050 to activate bluetooth

Strangely, the Garmin web site doesn't list any Sanyo phone in its compatibility list. Don't despair though; the Bluetooth connection protocol is pretty standard (and my Sanyo phone happily communicates with a Bluetooth headset).

Follow the Pairing instructions on pp 14-15 of the owner's manual, which you can download as a PDF file from the Garmin web site. My guess is that it will work just fin.

Changing the entry on your phone should allow that entry to show up changed the next time it is paired with the Nuvi. Sometimes, a bluetooth mix up causes entries to be duplicated or entries' phone numbers to get repeated.

Also, a Nuvi that is turning off and on is symptomatic of having corrupt firmware.

Downloaded and installed Bluetooth firmware update - Won't Pair

I recommend rerunning the webupdate software available below, which was updated March 30, 2010. Run through the update steps again.

  1. Back up your Favorites.
  2. Perform a Hard Reset.
  3. Download and then run Garmin 265WT WebUpdater to replace its firmware / system software.
After successful webupdating, a hard reset is often helpful at this time, too.

I hope that helps.
