I have been trying to get the firmware updated, but no luck so far.
Would anyone be so kind as to help me out? Greatly appreciated!

ok, figured it out...
it takes some time, but its worth it.

So the issue was: getting a FW unlocked and flashed to a Garmin device which is not in the known lists... while using windows tools on a Mac. (you can also do the following using windows).

-First, find your device type on the device. GarminDevice.xml
-Find out that your device is not listed on the known HWID lists.
-Try to find it somewhere else online
-Either find it here ([Please Register or Login to download file] ) or follow this guide to download your latest FW onto a USB stick ([Please Register or Login to download file] )
-Now you have the FW you want to patch, but you can only do this with windows .exe's. Download Virtualbox for Mac and a Win7 image from Microsoft ([Please Register or Login to download file] )
-Download the patcher from first post of this thread
-Download RGNTool from its authors website (google for RGN_Tool)
-Execute all steps in the tutorial from this thread in the VirtualBox guest (share drives to copy paste all files back and forth)
-Connect the Garmin and select in Virtualbox that you want to share this device as USB device in (install Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack to share usb device)
-Find out that virtual box is too slow to catch up with the short time of the boot loader of the Garmin.
-Find a hotel nearby with public computer, install Garmin drivers, run update.exe
-....
-profit

So, managed to get a firmware patched from a device which was not on the list. But only with the help from a windows computer.

Don't use the legacy Patcher and outdated FW list.
The current version of the Patcher is 1.30 and there is the FW list as of 15-06-18.

Works fine on my Etrex Touch 35 firmware 3.70.
Thanks !

I could not see Topo Germany V8 on my Etrex Touch 35, after having patched it now I can see this map.
Here is how I proceeded, my Touch 35 was already with the latest firmware 3.70, so I downgraded the version of the GPS with the 3.60, I patched the version 3.70 and I installed it.
I do not use Updater.exe (Win 10 refuses to launch it and tells me it's dangerous) I connect my Touch 35 to the PC with the USB cable, I see the GPS in the explorer (I configured the USB in MTP mode in "system" on the GPS) and I copy the firmware in the Garmin folder.

Looking to patch a Garmin Drive 51 LM. I believe the HWID is 2586 and software version is 4.00. Can someone confirm this based on the info from the XML file below, and post a link for the latest patcher version?

Thanks!

<PartNumber>006-B2586-00</PartNumber>

<SoftwareVersion>400</SoftwareVersion>
