Just noticed in Garmin Express that device software 5.90 is available for my GPSMAP 67. Unfortunately again no change log available. Hopefully it fixes some of the known bugs (and hopefully no new ones ).

[JungleJim]

Bug 16 (After attempting to pan and zoom the map while reviewing any Outdoor Maps+ map set, the user is no longer able to change the Map page zoom level without first restarting the device.) seems to be fixed in 5.90.

Bug 17 (Selecting LiveTrack tile on Status Page and pressing (Enter) only returns the user to the Main Menu.) seems to be fixed. After staring LiveTrack, and pressing Enter on the LiveTrack tile in the Status Page, the LiveTrack session is stopped. The UX is not entirely clear though, as you do not get a confirmation popup (like when starting LiveTrack).

I just ran the latest version of Garmin Express and synchronized my GPSMAP 67. It did not offer firmware 5.90 as reported by JungleJim. Has anyone else been able to update to version 5.90?

I disconnected my GPSMAP 67 from my computer and powered it off. I restarted the 67 and the device installed device software 5.90. I verified this using the "About" setting.

I see you got the update, but for others it may be good to know that Garmin releases updates in stages so the update may not be available for everyone at the same time.

That is certainly very true and it maybe helpful to turn the 67 off after running Garmin Express and then re-starting the unit. I did this and then my 67 asked me if I wanted to update my firmware and gave me the option to do so. I pressed enter to install the update. It took several moments to do so.

No 5.90 update for me. Just plugged into Express and says software upto date (5.30). Same on Explore the only update is some time zone rubbish.

Here on GPSrchiv we find the update as soon as it is released, I download the file and I put it in the directory of my 67, I turn it off, turn it back on and it updates. Why wait so long ?
But this time it's the automatic update this morning by turning on my 67, update done.

Out of interest those of you that have had the 5.90 update which country are you? I am in the UK and still not had 5.90 yet. Just wondering if different areas get it different times?
