I think I've installed this correctly, as in maps first, then camera overlay.

1) How do I check the speed camera database is on the phone correctly
.

.



2) How do I get it to warn me about cameras!!

Well to check the cameras simply in map mode scroll to the location of a camera known to you and zoom in. They only appear once you have zoomed in. and for the other part Garmin will automatically warn you as long as you have the setting turned on. --> settings --> proximity points.

Or simply drive past a speed and see if works. It works perfectly for me and has done from installation.

My only problem is trying to find up-todate POI's. As speed cameras are forever popping up in London. I normally get mine from a free websites where all the information about POI is slowlly accumulated. The only problem with this is they are often out of date.
Where did you get your POI set from?? and do you know if i can create my own POI's

Hope this helps ya!

If I've installed them correctly, would I be able to check in either the 'Map Sets' menu or the 'Custom POI' menu or something?

I'm not convinced I've installed ut correctly.

did you try what i said.
Unfortunatley that is all i did and it works. I am still trying to get my head around these poi's and mapsets as this satnav thingy is a real first for me.
It took me forever to figure out how to put the maps on the bloody thing.

sorry i couldnt help any further, but i cant believe that no one else has tried to help, i sure some people know what to do.

When you say you have install the poi correctly, did you use garmins poi installer? If so you shouldnt have to change any of the settings. I got the lastest database from pocketgps.com and then used garmin poi installer and it worked fine.

When a camera approaches, i can see a pic of a speed camera and the top bar lights up red with a beeping sound and speed limit.

i got speed cameras and rel light camera alerts by using the garmin POI installer. and i just googled for free poi websites, downloaded a free database poi file, and garmin poi installer did the rest. works great, but only when i have a route planned and i am approaching a rel light with camera.

i have the garmin xt mobile on my n95 8 gig. i installed both standard red/speed cam poi in it and also the advanced. i was able to load the standard maps through the poi loader but the advanved maps must be installed manually. all that ment was to extract files to hdd. then copy that over into the POI folder on ur garmin device. if that folder doesnt exist then just simply create it and away u go.

GREAT PRODUCT!
