What do you mean by auto-shutdown? It turns itself off after some time or it soft-resets itself or it turns itself off when you are using it???

it turns itself off without me noticing it..
it's like sneaking sneaking to turn off...
but when i'm using it, no problem le.. never auto-turn off..

it's not soft reset.. it's total turn off

P535 is having a "Hold" or lock key.on the right side of the PDA..check that u unlocked the button....Happen to me so many time initially until found the mistake...

yea,, i got check the 'hold' button.. it's already unlock...

then i press the 'standby' button on top once, nothing comes up, twice nothing comes out..
the screen totally blank and the there's no LED blinking on top...

so, i press longer, then it started up the PDA..
so, meaning, it got shutdown automatic le..

but dunno why also...
hehe

Could it be the contact between the battery and your P535 ?
It auto shut down when you left in on the pocket when you are walking?

So what you are saying is it goes off, and you can't get any incoming calls or such? And when you turn it on again you have to enter your password again?

Usually PDAs don't go "off" like that, it will go off but more in a "standby" mode, unless you remove the battery, have you checked your "Power" options, of how long it takes for it to turn off and such.

But in your case, if it does goes totally off and you cant get any calls in, there is something wrong with it, better send it in for warranty.

i checked everything.. nothing is wrong..

yea.. it just went off.. totally no power.. and i have to power up the PDA again.. and enter my PIN and everything to get it up lo..

maybe going to clean the contacts and stuff like that..

maybe your batery problem..

I have a P535 Chinese model. After installing Garmin Que and GPSGate, and the Malsing maps I could see the maps present. When I use MapSource ( came with CD accompanying my GPSMap60CS but updated to latest version) to check it shows the unit ID as "0", just wondering is this normal? Also I could not load a world Map into the unit as it showed a fault and asked to be re-installed. Other wise I could see the satellites and everything seems normal.

I could not try the MalSing maps as I am in China, also GPSProxy failed with a fault message but GPSGate is okay.

Any enlightenment will be much appreciated.

i'm testing Miomap 3.3 with P535 and in the config there is option to use sirf and nmea mode. Since p535 got sirft chipset, i did try to set miomap config in sirf mode..then my GPS signal cant be detected, even if i use gpsproxy or gpsgate. After hard reset also the signal cant be detected. Acnt do anything except have to send for service..luckily my p535 GPS signal back to normal.
After reading few forums, some users with builtin GPS having the same problem,and the solution to get back the signal is to remove your PDA battery for one night, then can gain back the GPS signal...
