Can you point me to somewhere that shows about the Garmin registry tweaks to improve its usability and user interface? All I can find is instructions on how to reduce lag and how to move to a larger storage card. Ive been googling for an hour. Id love to add some commenly needed buttons to some menus.
My garmin also saves to contacts fine but only when in options for a poi. If I click on the map and save that spot it will auto name it (location 5) and show in on the map. I then have to click on location 5 to see the location options. And clicking on location 5 is hard to do.
Oh I just figured it out but it still requires way to many steps. If I tap on a place on the map then instead of hitting save location tap on the icon in the top right (circle with an i inside) then click on the lable for the spot on the map, then click on options, then save to contacts. But it still forces me to use auto naming and that requires many many more steps to re name. And it wont let me save it to an existing contact. Instead click on tools/manage my data/contacts.
