Thread: Nuvi 55 - Missing text and keyboard files (German)

Hello!

A friend of mine is unfortunately missing the German keyboard and text files for his nüvi 55 after accidentally deleting some files.

I had recommended him to use the WebUpdater to install the following files on the nuvi and then reboot:

Nuvi55_56LanguageText_210.rgn

and

nuvi55_65Keyboards_130.rgn

However, this does not seem to work properly.

The WebUpdater reports "The Garmin device has been updated", but after restarting the device the necessary files "de-DE.kbd" and "de_DE.glx" and "de_DE_TRF.glx" respectively are missing in the folders "keyboards" and "Text" (de_DE_PRX.glx is present!).

What went wrong there?

Copy to the designated folder and your problem will be solved!

Thank you very much! I will forward the files to him.

However, the de_DE_PRX.glx already exists. He would still need the de_DE_TRF.glx.

Was my advised procedure (installation of the .rgn files via WebUpdater) wrong?

Edit: The matter has been resolved. After a hard reset of the device, the WebUpdater offered the appropriate text updates.

But why the previous installation of the .rgn files with the WebUpdater did not work, I still do not understand!

Would a hard reset have been mandatory after that too?
