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

1) Google Local Search--I don't know exactly which entry is the one that is needed, but if your /etc/hosts file has entries for downloadg.garmin.com, triplew.garmin.com, silver.garmin.com and/or bronze.garmin.com--either delete them or put a # symbol in front of the entry (# tells the iOS to not process that line) just in case you need to re-enable the block for that hostname, like so:

#127.0.0.1 downloadg.garmin.com

So far, so good--searches are still working correctly and quickly, and I haven't gotten the dreaded Authentication Error message...yet.

Hey Tony, this is how I have the files in hots. I did erase or put the sign number to the files and it did not work, tried different combinations. the gold garmin is needed so that the error is not displayed.
127.0.0.1 triplew.garmin.com
127.0.0.1 gold.garmin.com
127.0.0.1 bronze.garmin.com
127.0.0.1 downloadg.garmin.com

I am using the 2013.40 files, and everything works perfect. just the google search, the weather on destination, cams, and traffic are not showing. Any help would be apprecciated and good work.

thanks

Note by MOD: use QUOTE only if/the necessary...Thanks
