Hi all, I also would like to update my Garmin DriveSmart 61, ver 3.70
Not sure how to check for the HW ID, would be good if somebody could tell me how to do this.

Thanks

@Sinbad66
There nothing to do with HWID - it just used to check that prepared patched firmware is exactly for your device.
Read all in viewtopic.php?f=89&t=17987 - you will do the job.
To be sure that you use correct and last update for your device - just start official garmin updater and process with SW update online [ or if you on latest - just reinstall it ] - in this case you will have in device memory latest firmware for your device [ gupdate.gcd ] in ./System folder - Use it!

PLEASE do not confuse the people more! They have to know that if they will patch with a firmware with different HWID their device maybe stacked thats the reason that we are always asking for the HWID because sometimes same devices have different HWID
Everybody can see the HWID number on a file Garmindevice.xml there is a text like 006-BXXXX where XXXX are the four numbers declaring the HWID
As much at it concerns the Patching everything is on the post

Superb, thank you both. will give it a bang.

<PartNumber>006-B2588-00</PartNumber>

Thus HWId is 2588, that was easy enough to find.
Thanks

I have a Smart Drive 60LMT with the latest version 5.70. I`ve patched the update file with IMGPatcher 11, then converted to rgn with rgntool and filnally while updating with updator (in preboot mode), it gives me an error that "The Garmin device is not responding" . What else can I try. Thx

прошу помощи, таже проблема. 2588 только прошивка 6.10

I have the same problem.Garmin Drivesmart61,latest software update i think its 6.10.
when i look for those numbers you ask for me its hard to see which one of those is correct.
I find in lower portion of window Filename>GUPDATE.GCD/FilName and it comes with part number 006-B1257-00
So is this one B1257 you are looking for or not, there are other b or D numbers in there?
Thanks in advance I hope you will send me detailed instructions how to do it since I am not really familiar with this stuff.Thanks!

Firmware Identification FWID is the most critical information required.

Look in your Garmin folder and open garmindevice.xml and let us know what the numbers are highlighted below

<Model>
<PartNumber>006-B2588-00</PartNumber>
<SoftwareVersion>600</SoftwareVersion>
<Description>Garmin DriveSmart 61</Description>
If someone makes a patch for you with the wrong FWID it will BRICK your device

SD card Kit only for HWID 2588 FW 6.10 LOCKED Password is 2588
Password only after confirmation of HWID
