That's pretty rubbish. I would put in a support ticket to HH via support@hammerhead.io

HH should be doing periodic updates to their maps.

I could be wrong because I haven't installed 3rd party apps on my Karoo, but I think the only change is that those apps are now visible via the stock Karoo launcher. I assume that this means there's less need for 3rd party launchers now. The way to install apps should still be the same.

Does it still boot loop if connected to your PC in USB debugging mode (you'll need to be in Developer mode to turn that on). Raise a support ticket with HH.

Ok, that measurement is approx 40mm on Karoo.

1. Sorry, I don't know, but I suspect not.

2. No. I agree that this would be a very useful feature, also for if you find the Dashboard is down just at a critical moment you need to download a route before you go out.

3. Can you clarify exactly which dimensions you mean, please?

I don't recall seeing anyone saying they use one with Karoo, or any release notes from Hammerhead saying that they'd added support for it, so I strongly suspect that it doesn't work. Though I'd be happy to be proved wrong.

Bienvenido Alex!

To the best of my knowledge, neither Garmin or Wahoo publish a roadmap. If they do, I’d like to see it. Hammerhead used to publish a roadmap and, while nice, I thought it sort of crazy from a product management perspective that they did. It’s common knowledge in tech marketing of the disastrous con...

No one who has introduced a cycling computer in pretty much the history of the industry has had it go smoothly or as quickly as they had hoped. No, but Wahoo progressed 1000x more in their first year than Hammerhead did. Hammerhead were so overly optimistic to start with it was foolhardy (and Wahoo...

My answers to your main questions (sorry, I don't know the answer to your bonus question) are as follows: 1. Vaguely. It's very big and heavy. The good thing about it being big is that the screen is very nice indeed. That's the best feature by far of the Karoo for me. But I'm on my second replacemen...

The colder weather has started to remind me of Karoo design flaws again. Random reboots early on when the weather is colder, disappearing as things begin to warm up through the morning.

Karoo Software Build Version: 1.99.692.3 Release Date October 24, 2019 Introductions and Enhancements: Users can now long-press on the map (if no route is selected) and create a route to the destination indicated by the press point. Karoo will provide turn-by-turn directions along that route until t...

I'm not aware of any way to do that, sorry. If I've missed something, then hopefully someone will correct me.

If anyone noticed that the forums were down over the last 20 mins or so, that's because I was updating the board software (phpBB) to the latest version. Always good to have the latest security updates and fixes. Should be all back to normal now.
