ParticipantAfter a major update yesterday on my Garmin Tread Overland I am having a lot of problems. It is no longer possible to select the dark colour scheme. The DMD2 app crashes continuously when I try to do this.
When calling up the map view, the current position does not appear but somehow a point on the world map. The GPS does not seem to work. Only after I have manually scrolled to my location is it possible to determine my position.
The new option to create different profiles does not seem to work. Apart from entering a name for the profile, it doesn’t seem to have any other function.
Previously functioning GPX files are labelled as faulty when trying to import them.
Several new boots have not brought any improvement.
Thanks Thomas

ParticipantOkay the last update helps a lot, but now it’s impossible to navigate with DMD2. After a search like Gas Station, the navigation stops with a failure message.
calculate error
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/2009-172E/Android/data/com.thorkracing.dmd2launcher/files/Router/Calculated/directions0.gpx:open files: ROFS (Read-only file system)
I think I need help to solve the problem.
Thanks

ParticipantHi Thomas, I too am having issues with my Gamin Tread Overland. I’ve done a hard reboot, basically wiping the unit and reinstalling a fresh DMD2 on to it and still nothing. I get a blank white screen on my maps and have had to consistently redo the license input to no avail. Somethings an mis on the Garmin side blocking DMD2 or the recent DMD2 has some issue on it, not sure how all this is going to workout. Very frustrating as this is an expensive trial by fire that works for a time then doesn’t. It’s starting to get expensive and I have been steering my less tech savvy friends away from this stuff because even what I know, I feel more like a beta tester than an end user. Don’t get me wrong, this is all leading edge stuff and I applaud the DMD Team but between Garmin and DMD, something has to be ironed out.

ParticipantHi Pcfly,
Thank you for your reply. I also had the problem with the white screen. However, the solution was that the map assumed I was somewhere in the Arctic because the GPS wasn’t working. After the second update it worked. Currently I only have the problem that any navigation crashes with the described error. As much as I like using the DMD2, this forum is actually pointless. No matter how often and what I write about, I don’t get a single hint from support. DMD2 support is actually non-existent. What bothers me personally, but maybe I just don’t know where to find it, are the release notes. I install some update and then have to search around to find out what has changed, plus the constant features that don’t work. For example, the ability to create profiles. When I try this, DMD2 always crashes. Testing is done at the customer’s premises, as always.

ParticipantA new update every day, but still no solution for the broken navigation? Without exception, problems after problems after every major update, and one wonders if any testing was done before the updates were distributed? Really not good.

ParticipantSeit dem letzen Update lässt sich der OBD Scanner nicht mehr mit dem T 665 koppeln

Hey, thank you for responding, at least we can complain together and not feel like nobody on here is listening.
I agree with everything you wrote. I’ve said this before, Its a complement and complaint each time I introduce this product to friends and fellow raiders asking about it. I completely and utterly applaud these guys (fellow Portuguese ADV Brothers) for attempting and successfully putting this product out. I know its no easy under taking and they derive a ton of praise. That aside, I feel like a beta tester than an end user. This app isn’t for the non IT educated, it’s frankly frustrating! I understand they’re working again and again with issues from the various hardware manufactures who also tweak and update things from their end. It’s basically why Apple is what it is……despite their missteps, however this DMD2 software is annoying! Working for a few days, weeks snd sometimes a month then problems.
I too tried to do the group ride function and had the crash. At this point I just want the basics to work correctly.
As for this current issue, they updated a new build today and I installed it. My blank white screen in the maps work correctly however now I’m having the issue of needing to reenter the license code….and doing the song and dance of deleting it from the Thork Racing webpage then reentering it again on the device. It all works until the device or app is turned off…..then the dog and pony show starts all over again. Ugh

ParticipantBonjour l’équipe
En effet depuis la mise a jour il y a eu des changements et malheureusement des bugs!!! Quel dommage ça fonctionnait ci bien.
J’espère que l’administrateur prend note de nos messages pour corriger tout cela.
✌️✌️

ParticipantHi,
After the last major update I have lost all my maps and I am unable to download any of them, it is just showing a message that there are 7 downloads and nothing is happening.
It is like this from yesterday. Tried everything, restart the unit, etc.
I am using DMD-T665 unit

ParticipantI posted this elsewhere as well, DMD got back to me today and stated there was a bug in the last build and it’s working now. Build 3.00163 is current as of Jan 31st. My maps work correctly and I don’t always have to input the license code.
Are you guys up and running?
