I have used the SD card patch, the chinese GPS now works without an issue with genuine garmin maps. Thank you, boss.

Would it be possible to apply the universal firmware patcher to a Garmin Alpha 100 already patched with Alpha regional limitation patcher?
Currently with version 8.60 installed on the machine.
If it is possible, how to do it correctly?
Thanks.

Welcome to the forum .
Assuming your device is HWID 1562 it does not need to be Patched as you can change the CP value on maps that are NTU

MSV: Weak - it verifies the validity of map signatures in a simple way, you can unlock an .img using gimgunlock-0.04 (without patching your firmware), but in case of unicode maps (CP65001) you must modify the CP value.

Alpha 100 | 1562 | 860 | MAP: Yes | GMA: Yes | MSV: Weak | GVS: --- | File: Alpha100_860.gcd

But here is the Patched firmware
