You must have said something bad about them. Garmin knows...B)B)
Ha. Jay is their craziest fan. They should be cutting special versions just for him.

Wow. I just realized GP was not updating versions automatically on mine, and I just went from 2.3.2 to this new one. I had to go to the app store and tell it to install, then it updated.
Huge difference.
It is easily possible for GPS-using apps to use more power than a 12/24vdc car charger provides.Tablet also lost charge steadily during flight despite indicating "Charging AC".
I operate with the understanding that the recent app list is no big deal, and that Android is desisgned to switch quickly from app to app, there is not supposed to be a resource or battery drain simply from recent apps UNLESS you are getting memory errors.general Nexus question:
If I hit the right button, icons of apps pops up and usually this list is quite long. Then I hold/tap an app and up pops "remove from list" Often I remove all but chrome.
Am I not correctly exiting apps, resulting in them staying 'active'? Are all these apps hogging tablet resources/speed?
Or should I simply ignore this list and not worry about 'closing' them: in other words is there any advantage to closing them?
Thanks
I think it will stay on the list. I don't know if they use any resources or not when they are in that state. I didn't know you could press and hold to get a 'remove from list' message. I've always just swiped the app off the side of the screen to remove it.
Guess it's time to read the manual.
Put another 2 hrs on 2.6.4 using the FSX sim setup while watching the Reno Air Races (flew the incredible A2A Civilian P-51D from Stead to Montgomery) - no crashes this flight even with several split-screen changes and other activities.
Paying more attention to what is happening, it appears the app starts/re-starts the weather animation every time that the weather data is updated, so basically every time you look down it is animated again, very annoying/distracting.
2.6.2 was completely stable on my Acer A500, but 2.6.3 and 2.6.4 have gotten progressively LESS stable - come on Garmin....
'Gimp
The continuously-animated NEXRAD is annoying,
Skywag, are you on 2.6.4? Many of us that updated are seeing the weather animate itself, even AFTER we tell it stop. For me, it seems to reactivate with weather updates - I can select it off again, but it will invariably turn itself back on.You can stop it at any point.
i need recommendations... Nexus 7 or Galaxy Tab 3 7? Can i please get pros and cons from your experiences?
Nexus is cheaper and has a track record. Samsung makes good stuff but no experience with it that I've seen reported here.
actually Galaxy is cheaper. I like it because its smaller, but i'm wanting to hear any recommendations or previous experiences on it
Relatively new to Garmin Pilot, so maybe someone can help me out here. Version 2.6.4 on a Nexus 7. This just started happening after I tried to input the following route in the "File & Brief" window:
KBZN HIA4.HIA KMSO
GP didn't like it, so I tried putting it in the "Active FPL" window. Now whenever I try to go to "File & Brief" GP just restarts itself. I cleared the route from the Active FPL and now I can't even get to the File & Brief window - every time I try GP just restarts itself.
This message appears for less than a second before it restarts itself: "Unfortunately, Garmin Pilot has stopped." Also, if I log out of my GP account and use it as a free trial, it seems to work fine. In addition, I am running GP on my laptop through BlueStacks (a program that lets you use android apps on windows) with the same exact problem.
Is AR21 an airport (heliport?) in Arkansas?
Then there's the problem. What was it supposed to be?

An airway.
It's a fuel route.
OK. I don't think GP understands V routes, either, so it defaulted to a heliport that had that designation.
I don't think you understand AR routes. This has nothing to do with a V route

True, I know nothing about them. I was simply observing that GP may not know about them anymore than it knows about V routes, hence its confusion with a heliport with the same designation.
