When I move Garmin folder from working SD(internal) to: /storage/extSdCard I need a modified libgarminos;
Do I also need a modified .apk, or will the same .apk, work on /storage/extSdCard?

Yes. City Navigator Europe 2014.30 has 3.2 GB. Works flawlessly from External SD. Hope this helps.

The answer is not really straightforward, will depend on a few things.
Modifying the libgarminos is sufficient to get it running. However, on some phones, the libgarminos file from the apk will replace the modified libgarminos upon reboot. Then you need to replace the libgarminos file manually after each reboot for it to work. If your phone does not replace the libgarminos file at reboot, you can use any apk and place the modified libgarminos in the correct path. But if your phone does not work that way and if replacing the file on every reboot is too much of a hassle, you have two further options
1) Use a blank apk, ie an apk whcih does not have the libgarminos lib file included. Then you just need to place the modified libgarminos file in the correct path and nothing gets overwritten on reboot.
2) Or you can decompile the apk, and make the necessary changes in the libgarminos file and recompile it with the modified file.

Thank you very much for this detailed explanation. This is miracle and work like charm on my Galaxy tab 2.
is there any news for android 4.3 ??
I have a Galaxy S3. Now the map EU 2014.30 is availible. I just change it. Last week I used Garmin on a Highway and the JCV doesn't work. Perhaps I have the wrong version. Does anyone know wether I have to use the version with normal or the high resolution.
