Garmin City Navigator China v7.5 QSI with Offsets Corrected ENG CH+bmap+Hongkong Macau

I was playing with this map for a few days now @ Dalian, Wuxi, Shanghai and Suzhou.

Yes, it is have offsetted! Now the track log from the gps can be used in other mapping software and Google Earth.

HOWEVER, i noticed a bug (maybe it is present in all other version also). when I try to get the GPS (NUVI146o) to navigate from Shanghai Pudong to Suzhou, it strangely give route that far too long winded - i am very familiar with this route. When I was about 60-70 km from Suzhou, the route still tell me to follow a route tht is more than 150km!!! it is only when i was about 40km fr suzhou, appr, that the route corrected... SO!... meanwhile I will have to be careful with this bug .

I noticed the first link on the first page of this thread (Damipan) the china .img file is locked. I also had downloaded the unlocked version of the china .img file (megaload). Just for interests sake, I was trying to use the garmin unlocker and gmaptool to unlock the locked china .img from the first link. I did the procedure using these tools as I had done before and a new unlocked .img file was created but I don't believe it is correct when I compare it with the premade unlocked version from the megaload link.

I think it has to do with all the extra srt.img files. Are these files the offset correction? When I examine the Megaload unlocked .img file in GMaptool, the srt.img files seem to be linked with a corresponding map .img file. But when do the unlocking and joining on the locked version and examine the new file in GMaptool, the srt.img files do not seem to be linked with the other map .img files so I am assuming that the offset correction will not be there.

Can someone give a detailed procedure on how the unlocked china .img file was created while still maintaing the offset corrections?

I was not looking for Garmin links for my N97, they are easy to find. in my last post i said i have been using Garmin but would give R66 another try if someone could post links for it including China map.

Sorry if i did not make that clear enough.

Tested in Beijing:
Venus-CN-China-750-ENG-qsi: there is strong offset, cannot use.
750 unlocked: perfect! (with pinyin name)
760-CHS: perfect! (with local Chinese name)

Thank you for sharing!

Which download on the first page of this thread is this 750 unlocked? Is it also the one in the www Dot megaupload Dot com/?d=1337OIKV - Link?
I ask this because I want to be sure to have the one whithout offset when I travel in China in April.
