They want not to share the information here.
I have ask it many times on different boards to make a FAQ how to clone a card for 2 different cars that i have.

The sellers sending pm message's on the Discussion-Boards that they want too sale the SD-Card for € 65,00 / € 100,00.
Then you can be sure that they not go share the information here.
I go not to pay for a SDCARD for me it is Hobby & to help people.

They let make a SDCARD in CHINA with a lable & write in china directly the CID on it SEARCH on [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] Now you know why they not share the information.

The FAQ was in this thread !!! But it was lost when the forum crashed.
Things needed:
1) Samsung Evo+ 32GB SD Card (good one (mmc0\:0001)!) - mandatory
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
(Frustfreie Verpackung - frustration free packaging)

2) PC with internal SD reader(not usb) and Linux OS (Exemple: Ubuntu 16.4.1 32Bits) - mandatory
2.1) “Install” evoplus_cid on Ubuntu machine:
Exemple...
Local:
root@HP:/usr/local/src#

Command line:
sudo -s
git clone [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Compile app:
Local:
root@HP:/usr/local/src/evoplus_cid/jni#

3) Copy of original Garmin MAP pilot SD ("unmarried") - mandatory
4) CID of original Garmin MAP pilot SD - mandatory
5) Label of original Garmin MAP pilot SD - optional
6) Format Samsung SD on extFat or Fat32 (Both work but the original STAR1 it's on extFAT)

...Coming soon FULL FAQ!!!

Donations of STAR1 Europe(unmarried) are welcome!

@gaspar,
you're totally right. All information has been here, as I remember the great work together with Stefan.

Me, I have discovered the CID tool... And it has really been working.

But you must keep in mind that there are some things to mention:

- There are several EVO Plus cards available, for me ONLY the "frustration free" package (bought at amazon) has worked (SD card comes in a simple paper case, not the plastic one...)
- If you have an image of an original 32 GB card, you must have the 64 GB evo plus card (that I have not tried)...
That is because of the non standard sd cards of garmin. These do not match the specifications for sd cards. So, the 32 GB card has more blocks than allowed.
Therefore, it's necessary to buy the "bigger" one (64 GB)... Keep also in mind, that you have to write the original image on the EVO plus card. By doing so, the free space will be lost, as the original partition table is written.
But I guess that this is not really an issue :-)
- The name of the SD card is also not matching the specifications. As I remember, it has 12 digits and 10 or 11 are allowed...

Unfortunately, I have never found a working image of an UNMARRIED sd card...
Really disgusting...

There should be a way to copy the sh*** comfortably...
