The maps you uploaded are two maps:
1. CN China NT 2015.40
- gmapbmap.img [2.737.152 bytes] --> China Basemap
- gmapsupp.img [3.033.858.048 bytes] --> China Roadmap
- (gmapique.img [1.145.044.992 bytes] --> China QSI Index file, you didn't uploaded it, it's located in Map folder in C265)
2. CN HK/Macau NT 2015.40
- gmapsupp1.img [74.444.800 bytes] --> HK/Macau Roadmap


Do NOT use C265 files on 1455.
C265 is a "special" device and uses its own kind of files.

For 1455 and CN China NT 2015.40 download and use what Cnfhbr says in post #18

For 1455 and CN HK/Macau NT 2015.40 download and use 3480162.zip for nuvi 2505 from [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Do NOT download the .zip for C265, it is a totally different map, it is ONLY for C265.
For more technical view, C265 has different Poi file, different JCV file (SVGZ type) and totally different Map file (.img)
Its .img file contains different size IDX sub-file, different size TYP sub-file, different size QSIIndex sub-file and most important, different names and sizes for the map sub-files for Hong Kong and for Macau.
Its TYP file is "super big" at 32.7 Mb (almost half the file is TYP) and contains 4.141 Poi types (!!!), because Garmin defined as Pois, not only the common types (Banks, hotels, restaurants, gas stations etc) but also thousands of buildings, monuments and landmarks, that does not exist in the other 3 HK/Macau maps (4.141 vs 498 Poi types).

Download and use the zip file for 2505 because it has a "PNG type" JCV file with image size 212x234 and because the JCV file in the 3480155.zip has images with 400x366 size (very large for 1445).

Do not use the SQlite files on 1455.


The differences in sizes (bytes) and names of the sub-files of the 3 gmapprom1.img, it is gmapsup1.img for the EDGE 810.
