Did you read and follow this thread? All you should need to do is download and install the program from my first post and then add your own content.

EDIT: As peters said, you DID unlock it first? Go to MIO unlock section here for more information.

Did you download MY program from the link I gave you? If so, then nothing is missing. And check your unlock, the path may be incorrect. BTW, where did you get the unlock and which one are you using?

EDIT: Also did you properly create an .UNL using the keygen and save as "all files"? If not, you will get that error. Instructions on how to use keygen are in the download.

Well i got the next unlocked firmware (Custom firmware ithink is an unlocked one cause it shows the desktop of the wince and allows to run another aplications)

This is based on ROM R08.3 (NA) and has the explorer (taskbar) and all office components added. (doesn’t work with C250!)
[Please Register or Login to download file]

from this page **** no links to another forum please ****

If you could tell me how to make an sucessful installation of garmin tx i could reload the original firmware, but i have to say that i do not had anymore the miomap 3.2 that was on my device before the firmware upgrading


Thanks

BTW i couldn't use the keygen since i never run the app to get the device id


OK in the last hour i reloaded an official firmware downloaded from these link, and unlocked my device with Mioscript 3.24r , i downloaded again the GARMIN XT from ur post to be sure( cause i download tons of others ) but now when i execute the que.exe file i get this error " Cannot find 'que' (or one of its components). This seems like i need to get some adittional libraries :/ Any sugestions???

I want you to use this instead. I want you to install this to your flash internal drive. Backup your internal first [in case something goes wrong] and then delete everything so you have a clean internal. Your device is 320_240 while this unlock is for 480_272 so you should go into the 'Main" files in Miomap and change the numbers. Don't forget to save before exiting. Then install my Garmin d/l to your SD card.

" and the same for all the others navs it looks like in fact some libraries on the core of wince are lost , and also got the same error trying to enter to settings, mp3 player, etc

Any other sugestions?? maybe to load a full wince. if you have 1 send me a link :D ;)

Did you create a SW.UNL using the keygen and save as "all files" in notepad? It goes into the Garmin folder root.2083


EDIT: I also don't understand what you are talking about regarding the other navs. I thought we're only working with Garmin XT - right?

@Pietu or Ozboss - do you have any advice here?

Not really i tried to use the keygen but i stuck in this part

Code: Select all
 Launch GMXT, got to Settings -> About
:D

and the comment about the other navs its just to remark that anyone was working either.

I haven't done this for a long time now. But what happened when you pressed "about"? Didn't you get a card number? Without the .unl, the program won't work. You need to have the SD card in the GPS device when doing this.

EDIT: BTW, what country are you from? Igo 8.3 is a great program with TTS. No TTS in Garmin.

Ok the thing is , i cant press ABOUT cause you only can see the button 'about' when GARMIN XT is already running . I reflashed n reloaded wince to the device, and unlocked with a simple explorer aplication, i tried to run garmin.exe but it seems that a window try to open but dissapear in less than a sec, executing "que.exe" i get the same old error

"couldn't find 'que.exe' or one of its components"

I took a very extensive look on the web and seems that anybody had a mio C220 running GARMIN XT , i hope 2 be the first one :D

Well "I think therefore I exist" maybe could be a trouble with GMXT resolution?? maybe is set to run under another resolution and when detects that the device is 320x240 stops? mmm maybe??? it could be??

BTW im from Bolivia, and the only map that i found all over the internet for my country only works with garmin navs, thats why im trying to make it work :D

I'm working on Bolivia. Maybe I'll get lucky. As far as I can see, there is no reason why you can't get Garmin to work on your c220. It works perfectly on my Mio C320 with the program and unlock that I posted here and it does NOT execute through que.exe. The only real difference between the two devices is the resolution [that I can see]. Your port and baud should be 1, 57600. Even if there were a resolution error, the program still should execute so you could get to the settings/about screen. Did you at least get to a point about the license in the program?
