Other Garmin Devices
In other garmin devices is not present the .System folder , all the maps will be inside Garmin folder, the same here gmapprom.img map is the original pre-installed map
To update this devices you can:
1 - Replace the original map (gmapprom.img) with the one downloaded, you can rename the downloaded map in gmapprom.img if it is named gmapsupp.img
2 – You can use the downloaded map named gmapsupp.img just copy inside Garmin folder.
3 – If you want to have more maps in your device you can rename maps file in:
gmapprom.img (original map/ or renamed new map)
gmapsupp.img (2° map)
gmapprom1.img (3° map)
gmapoem.img (4° map – can’t be unselected)
devices with 3D buildings support, can rename in
gmap3d1.img (5° map)
4 – Using a SD card
Format in Fat32 your SD card and create a Garmin folder. Copy the gmapsupp.img inside the Garmin folder. You can use only one map in SD card.
You can have 2 maps named gmapsupp.img one in device and one in the SD card. It can help if you can’t put a full Europe map and you need a <2GB map. Copy the big one in SD and the rest usually a small file in Device, go in Setting\Map\Info and select both maps this way you will have a full coverage of Europe.
