i don't want to be a pain or sound ungratefull because im not and i thank you for your help but is there not a simple to follow guide for all of this, reading through the thread the advice has gone from doing one thing and downloading one thing to downloading another.reading back its gone from download unlock images, download maps source , download g map tool?
i have the map i want use use downloaded CN2012europe(the unlocked map source files), i have the add on files i want to go with this maps.
What are the steps i need to follow to get this map working on my device?
Why did i need to run mapsource unlock when the files i download said unlocked mapsource files
do i need both mapsource files and the map image file
is the gmap tool for joing the map images into 1 file?
im relucant to alter any files on the device until im sure i know what im doing with these files
again dont want to sound ungratefull just want to make sure i understand things prior to doing them
1. you not need unlock mapsource if it unlocked already (that info just for future if you download locked map)
2. you not need mapsource if you have map image file
3. if you have full backup you cant brick your device...
4. this is not so easy what tomtom is
5. understad that...garmin use map what is packed to .img file... if you use unlocked image just replase old ones \Garmin folder (after backup)
6. that unlocker link is only for .img files...
reason why I say you to use unlocked image is just that....then you understand how garmin works...
after that you can start learn with locked images and jetmouse and unl files and .....
