Will the unlocked USA-only gmapsupp.img work on a Garmin nuvi 255w?
Co-operation between Garmin and Noeman :p
sure it will-if it's the second map rename it before copying it- probably gmapprom1.img will workQuote:

just USA unlocked gmapsupp.img
rename gmapsupp.img and copy in a garmin directory
megaupload link (it would not let me put in the actual link)
Last time I did an update I just renamed the downloaded map to the same as my map is named that is already on my GPS, then I deleted the one that was already on the GPS and transferred the new one over. Is that what I need to do this time or something else? I do not have enough free room on my GPS to keep both maps.
the mega link for the USA unlocked map works-- retry.
yes the procedure is correct -- rename it the same way --please backup the old map on your pc before updating it-
thanks a lot for this!!
Worked as advertised on a Garmin Nuvi 255WT. Many thanks!
In my nuvi 255w, I tried several renames for the sd card in order to have 2 o more maps, but only gmapsupp works.
Not the case of the internal memory, that accepts gmapsupp, gmapprom, gmapprom1, etc.
I'm installing 2011.10 as I write.... I'll let everyone know how it goes.
Hey quick question! Will any of these files work with my Nuvi 360?
gmap3d.img - 3D
Folder JCV - Lane assist
gmaptz.img - Time Zones
Many Thanks!
John
