Im sorry if im asking something thats been answered before, but I've been reading so much I ended up so confused. I have an ECHOMAP™ UHD2 5" cv. I obtained an official sd card with a map that was from a friends device. I cloned the card, tried it on my device and didnt work. I unlocked the img file with a software from this forum, it said it was succesfull. When I tried it on my echomap, it "worked" but said it couldnt be validated or something like that and that it would stop working after 90 days. What did I do wrong? Do I have to flash my echomap with the patched software to use the unlocked img? thanks and sorry

Welcome to the forum.
Look in your garmindevice.xml and confirm your HWID
4333 or 3445 they are NOT interchangeable using the wrong one could brick your device
<Model><PartNumber>006-BXXXX-00</PartNumber>
<SoftwareVersion>290</SoftwareVersion>
<Description>eTrex 32X
Then search this thread using your HWID and you will find the right Patch for your device.

The list was only up to 2017 so is not up to date.
The best way to find the if there is a Patch for your device is to use your HWID to search this thread, if you can't find it use the device name and you will see if others have ask already and have got a reply like below

Unfortunately it looks like Drive, DriveSmart 52,53,55,65,66,71,76,86, zumo XT ,zumo XT2, Alpha 200i, Montana 700 ,GPSMAP 67 & 67i are all in the same category. No solution as the Universal Firmware Patcher does not recognise the new encrypted format.
