Hi! I´ve just downloaded City Navigator South America 2018.20 and have gmap3d, gmapprom and gmapdem.img files along with JCV and SID folders.
Do I have to copy everything into a Garmin folder including the JCV and SID folder or these folders go outside the Garmin folder?

I just purchased new Garmin echomap 72SV and I got a msg that the map is locked. anybody knows how to bypass the lock msg? please
the chart I am using is (HXAW005A-The Gulf & Red Sea v2017.0) GMA creation date & time (16.02.2017 19:45:33). please advice

Is there any way to edit the voices on the Garmin. Instead of 'Recalculating' I could have 'for F~~~s sake you've gone wrong again' this would impress my humorous friends and family. I would say 'it came like this they are all the same' .

thanks

Hi,

So reset my Garmin SEAT Portable System via Garmin Fresh. It downloaded, installed and checked the install, and all appeared ok. Unplugged the device, it tried to startup then came up with this screen.

Saying “Garmin Software cannot be started. Contact the Garmin Service Center”

Tried restoring again, still the same. Tried install with an SD card in it, still same.

Anyone help? It worked fine before trying to restore it.

Cheers

Back again.

So used in using TomTom.

Having installed the latest updates of Cyclops. Although the Garmin alerts if when in a 'safety camera zone'.

Can it show the actual location of the Safety camera location as with TomTom.

Also as I found with TomTom not all locations are listed/alerted, with TomTom I could add a camera location to my device and built up extra locations.

How with Garmin.

thanks

Trying to set-up my sons Garmin for Canada and UK, where I normally use my TomTom.

Wanting to download various POI's for Red light camera's, Petrol stations, Supermarkets and many more.

But looking on 'GPS POI File' website for Garmin, there are several formats ie: Garmin POI BMP, Garmin POI CSV, and Garmin POI GPX to display when nearby etc as on TomTom.

Which one should be used for the nuvi 760.

thanks
