GPSMAP67

I found five bugs on my 67 after doing a factory reset, firmware version 4.80 (see GarminDevice.xml file):

1) the RINEX file of the 67 is non-compliant, the layout of the files is not good, some satellites are missing, see the two attached files of the 66sr (compliant) and the 67 (non-compliant), it does not does not display correctly on RTKplot for example. 1) (two Rinex files from 67 and 66sr to compare with notepad).
2) Hide the dashboard, when the map is displayed, I hide the dashboard then I go to another page, I come back to the map page and the dashboard is back. (doesn't do this on my 66sr where it's nicely hidden until I bring up the dashboard again)
3) the trace files stored in the internal memory of the 67 in Garmin\GPX, are sometimes invisible as if the directory were empty (it's random), by putting them on the µSD in Garmin\GPX, I see them. (which does not happen on the 66sr).
4) In the configuration, I want to change a parameter, I display the corresponding page and the subpage, the latter is displayed halfway (see attached image file)
5) I couldn't get Live Track to work, yet the 67 is well connected to Garmin Connect, I launch an activity, then I launch Live Track, my PC does show me an email telling me that I I have an activity, I open the link on the PC, the map is displayed and I wait after a few moments, a message tells me that there is no activity. (read on Facebook from two other people who have this problem), (Live Track works fine with my 66sr).

Thanks for sharing, but please let's continue discussion on these issues in the original topics instead of this one. This makes it much easier for other users to find new information.
"Half screen" issue is imho not a bug, it's just how the UI design works. This has been the case on 66 as well, see for example the screenshots on this site. Only thing that could be considered a bug is that with French language the padding in the popup window is not correct.

I consider the half screen a bug because I never had it on any of my Garmins, nor on the 66sr. Even if it's related to the language, it's a big anomaly.

Ok then I'm curious what the difference is you're seeing. Can you post screenshots from the same popup menu on the 66sr and the 67?

Attached some screenshots (from a YouTube video, not my unit) that show that a popup on the 66sr is not the full width of the screen. But maybe you mean something different?
