Has anyone been able to load custom POIs on the 8.4AN from a usb drive?
I have seen it listed on a number of Jeep/Chrysler sites that say it's possible.
I formatted the usb flash drive as FAT32
On the usb flashdrive I created folder structure: H:\Garmin\POI
Download/Installed Garmin POILoader app along with basecamp
In basecamp, created a new collection and added a couple of waypoints
Opened POILoader, selected Garmin device for save option
Selected the USB flashdrive to save file to
Selected Install new POI on your device
Selected the folder where the basecamp data files are saved
For the custom poi file name, typed in Poi
Left Distance/Speed set to Feet & MPG, Left Express mode as default
Popup saying succefully installed custom POI
Open flashdrive to verify file was created: H:\Garmin\POI\Poi.gpi
Went to RAM1500, turn key on, switch 8.4AN to navigation and wait for it to load
Inserted usb flashdrive watch light flash on flashdrive nothing happened
Also tried using Computer instead of Garmin as the save option with the above steps and same results.
Radio model# 68238619AE, running 18.45.01 installed in a 2013 RAM1500 ST
Thanks
