I have a nuvi 770 and a Samsung phone which is not listed on the
Garmin list of compatible phones (the new Gleam 700). My Bluetooth
connection wouldn't work until I got in touch with the Garmain tech
support and received a DOWNgrade of the BT software from them by e-
mail that I installed on the nuvi without any problems and--voila!
everything started working great between my nuvi and the cell phone.
There are two things, though, I don't like: 1) the phonebook is
volatile and vanishes after the connection is lost (it takes a while
to get it transferred again) and 2) I have not figured out how to make
calls requiring multiple sets of numbers with pauses (like calling my
cheap intn'l. service, then country number etc. etc., but it's a mnor
problem.
So, downgrade your nuvi BT software to S/W version 2.40 (HW100-SW240)
and enjoy the connection!
