Thank you, I saw you posted the SD patch kit for drivesmart 61 with HWID 2588, same as mine
Quick question: as long as the HWID is the same, can I simply transfer your kit to my device?
in the future, if there is new firmware update, do I need to request a new kit from you? (if you are free and available that time? :-)
Is software patch method using FirmwarePatcher380 still working?

Thank you.

HWID is what defines the compatible Patch ,use the wrong Patch & most likely brick your device.
Don't chase updates, most likely they don't relate to your device, like the changes made from version 6.20 to 6.30:
Fixed support for Garmin HuntView Plus on Garmin DriveTrack 71.

You can use the previous method to patch, but finding Pre-boot mode can be challenging, using an SD card kit is simple as long as you read & follow the installation instructions.
There will always be a trusted member to make kits for those that request them within a day.

Welcome to the forum.

Thank you for your quick response!

It is the TOPO Deutschland V9 Pro (Germany).
The error shows "Karten sind nicht authentisiert. Für Unterstützung an Verkäufer der Karte wenden" (Cards are not authenticated. Contact the seller of the card for assistance).
I put the topo to the folder "garmin" at the SD card.

WOW!! Thank you very much for the excellent help! Now the card is working properly.
Now there is a new question: what happens, if there is an original software update from Garmin? Can I use these updates in the future?

If you use a Garmin update later than 4.70 the patched one will be overwritten and loose the ability to use unlocked maps,the good news is the older the device the less updates there are.Don't chase updates ,see if their fixes relate to your device use.
A new Patch can be requested for later FW

Changes made from version 4.40 to 4.70:

I saw a post after mine from gabii5, but I'm not clear if this is a patch for my DriveAssist 51 and then there was a question from GarmanNuvi about that link anyway. I'm unclear whether I have a patch available or not?
