Crash when enabling Chirp (Geocaching)

Unread post by mity! »

When enabling the 'Chirp Searching' function (Geocaching) it takes about 70 seconds before my O750 crashes. And it seems, that it doesn't find a nearby Chirp in the moment (but I am not sure about it as far as I have no own Chirp to test).

I am using FW 4.00 and I cannot say what the last FW was which I was finding a Chirp with.

Does anyone meets the same behavior?

Okay, seems to bei a known error with firmware 4.0 and "in progress" as far as we can trust the german Garmin forum...

Finally the fix is there...

New FW 4.2:

Changes made from version 4.00 to 4.20:
Added support for Garmin HuntView Plus.
Fixed possible shutdown with Chirp searching.
Fixed possible issue transferring Geocaches from Geocache Live.
Fixed possible issue connecting to secured WiFi.
Fixed possible missing end tag for GPX route files.
Fixed possible issue with Share Wirelessly app.
Fixed possible issue where EPO data would not be downloaded through GCM.


Keep my fingers crossed... (I haven't dared yet to install it. :oops: )
