Features of gimgunlock:

* Direct Modification - unlike other tools which use GMapTool to split an image file, unlock each tile, then join all tiles; this tool unlocks all tiles in an image file directly without splitting and joining. Therefore, you should back up your original map first before running this tool.

* Super fast speed - The 1st result of direct modification is super fast unlocking. For example, a 2.3 GB image file can be unlocked in less than 4 seconds.

* Zero disk space - The 2nd result of direct modification is that no intermediate disk space is required. In fact, you can unlock a big image file on a SD card or USB connected GPS device directly and quickly.

* Intact header - The 3rd result of direct modification is that the original header of the image file is preserverd. Thus, timestamps, version number, Mapset name, etc. remain the same.

etc as written in gingunlock thread.

Are not SQL infos, but .img infos as said before and as explained by Ballebar above

Coz personal unlock codes were removed with pietu's tool: it contains GMT.exe old version.
