    Yet another edit add due to "experiment". The CX full (NA) file will not work with my Nuvi 1300 unless I have an unlock "key"/file in there. Doesn't matter whether it's the A'dam key or one freshly made for the CX full (NA). I had read the entire thread before I began posting and I did read all of post 8. There are a couple of what appear to be contradictions within this thread or I'm just too tired to make the distinctions. Too, I had the read the instructions on unlocking. I'm confused beyond a reasonable doubt at this time given post 27 is directing no unlock file is needed?
    No, that's not what i said in Post #27:

If they were locked, there would be a capital "L" following priority of "30" for the locked parts. e.g. Houston would appears as:

    I1136F74 NT 18818609 1 1252 30 L 1 2920 HOUSTON, TEXAS

    You may have it loaded with any version of CNNT other than 2014.10 provided you don't have them both selected at the same time. Check only the one you're using at the time. That info is in post 21 immediately above your initial post here.
    What i said there is clear i would think, I didn't say no unlock file is needed: The NT parts etc have the original FID and are unlocked. The MMR parts with FID 800 still need the *.unl file for EPM to function work [but the last part is left unsaid]. The user i was answering clearly understood that by his earlier posts, so there was not a need to restate it at the time.

    As to why your Chicago map worked with an unlock file named differently i can't say. I haven't tried that, the convention has always been for the *img & *unl files to be named the same and I believe that to be the case. I'll try and report my results.

    BTW, FIU is good, but slow. Better to use [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] or [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] for unlocking images.

    @Neil: Thanks for all the data, Neil. I'm afraid I'm just not going to "make the grade" relative to many of the folks on the web site, but I'll do my best. As an example, I am still confused by your quote: "You have the full CX 2014.10 and only the MMR components need have the FID 800. All else including the NT parts still have the original FID 2920 but they are unlocked."

    Because I am so far behind I keep getting further behind! To me, it says above: "You have the full CX 2014.10 and only the MMR components need have the FID 800. All else including the NT parts still have the original FID 2920 but they are unlocked." To me, that means the one's with the FID800 do NOT require unlocking ; and yet in reality they do require some manner of .unl file

    I don't want to waste valuable board space and time with my limitations. Conversation/discussion via text leaves a lot to be desired, really.

    @axxtw

    Your full CX NA 2014.10 contains a couple of things:

    The street map pieces (equivalent to part of CN NA). Those pieces have FID 2920 and have already been unlocked for all devices.

    The MMR (enhanced pedestrian data) pieces. Those pieces have FID 800 and require an unlock code (.unl file) to be used.

    In other words --
    The MMR (FID 800) components cannot be globally unlocked -- a .unl file is required to use them
    The rest of the map (FID 2920) can, and has already been, globally unlocked -- no .unl file is required to use it

    Clearer?
