You all look in wrong direction when you try to clone SD, its very simple solution ( hello, we talk about garmin

), but becouse someone talk about CID, you all look in this direction instead try something else.

Can you elaborate on your solution?

Loly's logged off [as i'm about to do] but i reckon he's maybe referring to this method: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. My uncertain understanding is that this Merc system is different to Kenwood [they do both run Garmin software of course], i've heard that Merc is more like the later highly-protected Toyota for example. I hope i'm wrong and Loly's hint can help you guys with this.

Okay... I have been following this thread since late July and I think I'm going to start digging into getting this working for the Merc Garmin gps system. I graduated college in 2013 with a a as programming and info sec degree. I can code in Java, c,c++,Python, and VBA. I did some digging and I think lolli may be referring to this forum: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ].

Can anyone point me in the direction of the unused files for a CLA 2015?? (No touchpad). I think any method would be able to be replicated for all other Mercs with the Garmin gps system. Once I get the files I can start digging. Pm me if needed.

Thank you all!

Is there a file for Garmin Map Pilot Europe ?

Excellent thank you janjarac! I have the files and I am beginning to look into this now. I'm going to pickup an SD card large enough tomorrow so I can push the image and beginning digging with my own car. For tonight I'll just use a 16GB partition to get started. With all the help from our Gpspower friends on other forums, I'm sure it is a great place to gather some info. I highly doubt that they have a CID non encrypted (or at least hashed) but remember.... Everything's crackable. I think lollis right, we should be exploring all possible avenues. It's just the perfect side project to get started on. Thanks for the great starting point and I hope to make progress on the install.
