I've just recently bought a 3490LMT here in South Africa and the Preloaded Map is CNSA2013.30 NT not NTU.

As I know CNSA NTU doesnt exist. But the default preloaded CNEU map on 3xxx 2xxx and 30/40/50 is CNEU NTU, you cant get NT by Mapudater, like you cant get NTU on 1XXX and old model by Mapupdater till now.

Thanks for your quick response. Indeed I am aware the method described will result in an .img file which still has GMA restrictions. It's just my way of creating a locked .img file via MapSource / MapInstall and then unlocking it at the speed of sound with gimgunlock.

The problem encountered seems to be caused by MapInstall rather than the map itself. I will work through your suggestions and report back with my findings.

Patch new Mapinstall as suggested by Neil

Have you got satellite signal ? Does your nuvi sees the map, is it in Maps list?

@dasilvarsa
Agree with that 100%, NT will work just as well as an NTU in all those units I quoted not just 34xx. In AU all those models have NT with all the other associated files as standard. No NTU for AU (not enough Cyrillic users here), but now there is Pan-Africa NTU, who knows, maybe there'll be NTU here and in America too soon. In this case it was about getting Alexis_ a working JCV file, and also tying in with the advice given by Giomen as he wanted SID files as well.

Thanks for the clarification though, it's a valid point.

Try to get satellites. Have you used it in the US recently?

After getting the satellites can you see the CNEU map on nuvi screen? If yes ,first make an hard reset clearing non vol (backup your data first) then try to pan CNEU map in simulation , put your position in the map, then retry to search.

Btw is always better to download original locked Mapsource, unlock it, build your map and send to your device to avoid any problem....as usual
