There is something weird happens to me with tha map I dowload here :
both north america NT 2020.20 ( lower version) and 2019.30 works perfectly on my very old NUVI 860 ( from 2008 !)
I put the gmapsupp.img on a garmin folder on my sd card and all is ok
then I put the same card on my new garmin drive 51 lmt-s and I have a french message said " Mpas are corrupted and can't be used. go to garminexpress.com....."
My old nuvi don't work perfectly ,the tactil screen is not very responsive , ...
that's why I would love to take my drive51 .
it's for an raodtrip from SF to LV and more.
I try to unlock the file with the .exe we all know but still the same message
What goes wrong ith the drive 51 ?
thank you for your response
Your device will need to be Patched to use Unlocked maps
Check in your Garmin folder for garmindevice.xml open with Notepad and Find and confirm your
HWID number
<PartNumber>006-B
2586-00</PartNumber>
<SoftwareVersion>620</SoftwareVersion>
<Description>Garmin Drive 51</Description>
Only when you have confirmed the HWID 2586
you can use this SD card Patch kit
- Hidden Content
- This board requires you to be registered and logged-in to view hidden content.
Make sure your device is fully charged.
Unpack contents to fresh SD card formatted FAT32
Ensure your device is fully OFF (not in standby), insert the card into device and power on.
"Loader" will appear on screen for a while then the device will boot up when the flash of patched firmware is complete.
Your device may reboot its self during the process just be patient.
Your SD card will have a new file named 154.bin this is a backup of the device's non-volatile memory region and may save your device later if needed,so keep a copy of it somewhere safe.
