    Problems...

    Dakota 20,
    did download firmware 3.80,
    extracted fw_all.bin from gupdate.gcd using RGN_Tool.exe,
    patched fw_all.bin using FirmwarePatcher.exe, worked
    put the new patched fw_all.bin back to gupdate.gcd
    copied the gupdate.gcd into folder "Garmin" on my Dakota 20
    started the Dakota 20 and updated the firmware
    everything worked perfectly, firmware ist 3.80 now and I suppose it is patched

    downloaded "Dartmoor.jnx"
    downloaded "Wikipedia_de_2006-11-30.kmz" found somewhere on the net, renamed to "wiki.kmz"

    put "Dartmoor.jnx" and "wiki.kmz" into a folder "CustomMaps"
    tried: Dakota 20/Garmin/CustomMaps
    and: Dakota 20/CustomMaps
    and: SD-card/Garmin/CustomMaps
    and: SD-card/CustomMaps
    (alternating)
    But: the maps do not show on the Dakota! No additional maps in settings/maps/map information-select maps

    What am I doing wrong???

    Thanks catymag, that makes sense.

    I cant seem to get these maps working on my GPSmap 62s (FW 2.80).

    I have unlocked the Peak District map using Fast Image Unlocker but when I put it on my SD card nothing shows up on my GPS. The map isnt displayed and it doesnt show in the setup so that I can enable/disable it. I also tried the Lake District map (already unlocked according post 1) and I get the same result. I have tried removing all of the maps I have by deleting the IMG files from SD card, leaving the base map on internal memory and restaring the unit with just the Lake District IMG file on the SD card. Same result.

    I have had the Discoverer 1:50K whole UK, GB Topo and OSM all on the SD card and working. I just enable/disable which ever one I want to use. I just cant seem to get these ones to be recognised.

    Any suggestions would be welcome.

    Thanks
