You have to turn on the notifications on the XT in settings. I actually shut mine off as it was a bit to much to be watching while riding down the highway.We need to start a Garmin XT thread ! LOL
How am I able to see my text pop up on the screen ? I hear my phone "beep / text" me but I dont see anything on my screen and can't see to play the text back to me... Could you direct me or PM me on how to do this ? THANK YOU
I had a Sena 50S when I started this Black Hills trip. After day one's torrential downpour it quit working. From past experiene we always travel with backup headsets, so used a S20 for the rest of the trip.
I replied to that email and waiting for my next communication from them.
You got me! It just works. The answer about notifications sounds good. Some people say there's an order to what you turn on first. I start the bike, then turn on Sena/Cardo. Sorry I'm not more help.We need to start a Garmin XT thread ! LOL

I should clarify. I've had the Cardo/XT combo in torrential rain for a couple of hours. Not the Sena 50s/XT. I think the build of the 50r is a much better solution for water than the 50s. But the 50s is much easier to use with multiple helmets. Just buy extra mounts and snap away. Very much like Cardo.I had a Sena 50S when I started this Black Hills trip.

Now that I've contacted Sena for my 50S about the failure, they've informed me they are not waterproof and should only be used in light rain.
As a user of most major models of the Zumo over the last 15 years, I can say it is actually daylight readable, not just a claim, this time it's true. The XT is the Zumo we've all been waiting for but was never delivered. It answers most of my complaints that have built over the years. No more being unable to know where the hell you are because you zoomed out just a tiny amount. You see the small roads now.
Gaia GPS is a smart phone navigation app. I personally use OSMand+ on my Samsung Note 8. You can download maps so internet connection is not required while riding. I do have an old old Zumo 595 permanently mounted too, but only use it for general orientation and immediate route tracing. Any route planning and recording is on the mounted phone.
Hey Snert! Hope things are going better for you! Hope and pray you are on your way to a total recovery! Let us know how you are doing.
