Thread: How to install any Garmin map on Iphone Garmin StreetPilot

when I add map in garmin app , "Activation of maps requires Internet connection. Please ensure you have a connection to the Internet using either your data plan or Wi-Fi"

How to these solve ?

I have tried blocking garmin but I to get activation of maps requires Internet connection. When I allow Internet connection I then get the error message Authentification Failure. Help

What I'm I doing wrong?

I got the same problem and I delete all the files in the .System folder after that I put my own choice of files (map and 3D)(unlocked) in it and it works...

And

Code:

Put a space between the 3 lines (do not use return)

And

Code:

Check via iFiles the ownership of these new files


Still my question remains... where is the POI folder on a iPhone or how to add the poi’s from Cyclops speedcam....

Thx.

Definetelly the POI does not work in this application, unless you put them in the .db file yourself
the above is for .gpi files

the permissions of the maps should be :

Group wheel
Access Permissions
User Read,write,Exec
Group Read,exec
World Read,exec

The POI data does not work on Iphone Garmin Street Pilot, with the general files working on other devices like Mobile XT Mobile PC, or Garmin Devices.

The poi database is stored in /Var/mobile/applications/blabla/Library/sdcard/.System/SQlite/

/resent_searches.db - speaks for itself
/local_poi.db - this is interesting - i did not figure out the database structure entirely
/mylocations.db - custom inputs
/system.db - speedcorrections inside - if you did any during your jurneys

the coordinates format is !@^@%$^- no info

the files can be opened and manipulated with SQLite Browser

If someone with deep knowledge, could make script for convert and import of POI, it would be awesome.

Ownership:

Group: Read, Execute
World: Read, Execute

Yep, this is correct one... I copy & paste a wrong one :umbrella:

He, Thx chehov for trying to help me
For the above, is this not for personal poi’s? My question is for the Cyclops speedcams... everyone is speaking about a POI folder?
But where on a iPhone?

Thx and regards.

My above post about ownership is wrong...

Ownership:
Owner: mobile

Your reply, is this not for personal poi’s? My question is for the Cyclops speedcams... everyone is speaking about a special POI folder?

Here is solution for jailbreak iPhone.

Extract and install Garmin downloaded from here

- From Cydia, add the repository cydia.xsellize.com

- Download and install the package FIREWALL IP from the repository

- When you restart, perform firewalling

run FIREWALL IP

- Go GLOBAL DENY

- Press TAP TO ADD A HOSTNAME

- type in gold.garmin.com:80 and press OK

- At this point it may be possible to run the Garmin without problems

i am having the same issue with garmin app requesting activation of maps. Any ideas? I did all that was written here but still system requires activation of maps.
