Thread: Garmin City Navigator India NT 2012.30

That's exactly how it works on a Nuvi (and you're rarely wrong about anything dasilvarsa .) The map is running in my US/AU 1450 presently and on that simulated route from Mumbai to Bandra/Kurla Complex and back it is showing LA on many turns, with no JCV file loaded. But that's not how it worked for manojmat on his ipod is it, but why? .....

.......... I've now loaded the jcv and getting full screen Junction Views as it should be, as well as the LA display. It seems there is no SLI on this map though. The LA screenshots below are a mixture of before and after the addition of the jcv file:

No big trouble really, but thanks for the acknowledgment. I'm not sure how helpful my results are because i'm not using an India localised unit. It would be interesting also to see what results a local nuvi gives considering the previous ruminations on what the local fw may and may not do with these maps.

Speed Limit Indicator. Should show where the "+" is in the red circle on your ipod. On my us fw nuvi it shows in the same place but usually in a rectangle. It's obviously not present in this map.

maybe you need use "Map" folder instead "Maps"
also you can use "anyfilename.img" in map folder...

length is 688832512 as you can see in Gmaptool log in post 1, follow pietu advice "Map" not "Maps"

Have you named the map correctly?
Have a look in the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], scroll down to 'Storing maps in devices' to find the info you need.

Seeing you're new here with only 2 posts, to start you off:
First back up any other maps with the same image name which you may wish to keep.

In the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] of your 1300's internal memory, this is the naming convention:

Base map name: gmapbmap.img (don't remove or rename - base map only, don't use this name for any other map)
Time Zone Map: gmaptz.img (don't remove or rename - time zone map only, don't use this name for any other map)

Detail map names:
gmapprom.img
gmapprom1.img
gmapsupp.img

In a root folder Map (create it if it doesn't exist), you can have numerous maps conveniently named, e.g.: CNNT_India_2012.30.img (anyname as long as the ext is .img).

In a MicroSD/SDHC card, you may also similarly have a Folder named Map, or a single image named gmapsupp.img in a root folder named Garmin.

My preference is to use a card only for any 'unofficial' unlocked maps. That way you can just remove the card if any new map causes problems and your unit will function normally.
