Geocache lists function causes GPS to reboot [Crash 1]
I was trying to use the Setup -> Geocaching -> Geocaching Live -> Geocaching Lists function and found out that it does now work. It causes the GPS to reboot.
After 'Geocaching Live' is selected, I get this screen:
and after a few seconds, the GPS simply reboots.

We are unable to reproduce with version 4.70 installed. Can you please retest and verify results? Please share a video that also shows the firmware version on the Setup > About page for submission to Garmin if you can still reproduce.
Thank you!

Re: Geocache lists function causes GPS to reboot [Crash 1]
Just performed a quick test:
1) deleted the .ggz file present in /garmin/ggz/ - no fix, 'geocache lists' crash remains,
2) downloaded a few caches using 'download caches' function then tried 'Geocaching lists' again, issue resolved, no more crash,
3) did a 'remove live data' then tried 'Geocaching lists' again, issue still resolved, no more crash, but wait,
4) power off/on GPS - the crash is back.
After step 3 'remove live data', the power off/on is required for the crash problem to return.

Can you please share a link to the GC List you are downloading when this crash occurs? The Garmin engineers are trying to replicate.

Re: Geocache lists function causes GPS to reboot [Crash 1]
My lists are private except for this one:
I had 30 days to return the GPS to Garmin for a full refund and I did. The GPS was useless for me for geocaching.
So, I will not be able to test anything anymore.
