Thanks for helping to all of us. It would be great if you post here your 2.3 or 2.2 IPA with all you customizations but without the Maps..
We all appreciate this..
Regards

Note--you have to replace the exact number of characters (i.e., no more, no less) or else the binary file will no longer be the correct size; I tried this trick just for grins and Garmin 2.3 fires up and works, without my having installed any firewall app. Of course any stuff (e.g., Extras, Google) that needs to dial out will still not work but hey, at least you're now running 2.3, for whatever that's worth...
