Hello
I have a Garmin DZL-OTR720 sat-nav with US maps, and I’d like to install the European maps. I’ve downloaded the City Navigator Europe NTU 2027.20 FID 13405 map, but I’ve no idea how to install it. Can anyone help?

Hello everyone - I've recently dusted off my old Garmin iQue M5 and thought it would be fun to get it up and running again. It currently has a partial installation of City Navigator Australia v6, but I'd love to load the complete map so I can explore some of the streets as they were before all the changes over the years.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to find my original CD. I was wondering if ...

so Garmin did stop using .img for marine chart.
They use a gma at the root with a folder name Charts that containt 2 folders Tiles and a RDPs. In the RDPs got the id of the map and a .SRPD file.
Did i miss a big release note ? Anybody got more info.
thanks

Hi all,

I have a Garmin Montana 600, software version 7.60, with a close to dead original battery, but it does still charge and power the unit for 5-10 mins (battery 361-00053-00 from 2013).

I bought a new Garmin battery for the Alpha (battery: 361-00053-07 product code: 010-11654-11 from 2025) as the Montana 600 is unsupported and discontinued and firmware is no longer updated past 7.60.

The new Alpha battery fits and powered the Montana ...

Hello everyone,
I recently bought a replacement motherboard for my Garmin DriveSmart 61 LMT‑S because my original board was broken.
The new board works and the device powers on, but it only shows the message:

“System Software Missing”

Garmin Express does not detect the device, but Windows shows it as a Garmin Device in the Device Manager.
Does anyone know how to correctly flash the firmware (RGN) onto a new board or where to get ...

Hello everyone,

I'm having an issue with my BMW Navigator VI GPS. The USB module has failed, so the device can no longer connect to a PC and it also won't charge through the USB port. At the moment, it can only charge when mounted on the motorcycle cradle.

I've taken it to a few local repair technicians, but unfortunately none of them have been able to repair or replace the USB module.

My main ...

I have an address search problem with every Garmin GPS I've tried (some patched, some not), including the 2595, 2597, 2797, and DriveSmart 65.

With Garmin City Navigator Europe NT or NTU maps, none of these devices can successfully find and map a street address. The streets are present in the database, and the GPS even suggests multiple matching streets, however, when I select the desired street, the search spins indefinitely and never display it ...

Hello All,

Anyone know if it's possible to put saved tracks (.gpx files) on a Dezl 780LMT-S and have them displayed on the map?

I managed to get my custom waypoints (.gpx) sort of working by putting them in mtp://Garmin_dezl780_0000ecd35337/Internal Storage/Garmin/.System/GPX/ (plugged into a Linux system), but they won't work if just putting them in mtp://Garmin_dezl780_0000ecd35337/Internal Storage/Garmin/GPX/, they must be in the .System/GPX/ folder.
They can then be used ok as destinations when navigating.
They're ...

I'm trying to update the maps on a Nuvi 2599 without success.

I can't even get the part number from the xml file.

Is there a way to find this from the unit itself? It powers on and work fine but no matter if I select one time MTP or permanent MTP it won't connect to my computer. My other Garmin nav connects first time so it's not the computer port, cable or garmin express ...

So I recently managed to find a Garmin nuvi 660 eu and seems the previous owner deleted the Garmin folder at some point, I was able to restore it for some part with Garmin webupdater and the maps from bbbike, however any help button doesn't work since the help files seem to be missing, and one of the buttons in the travel kit also seem to be missing

So is it possible someone has the ...
