Thread: Patched firmwares for JNX files

Sorry to bother, but I've spent days combing for this info, and I'm missing a step.

I have an Oregon 450. I've downgraded to both 4.20 and 4.32 beta, both downgrades work fine. I then download the Oregonx50_432Beta_JNX.exe file per the link on the first page, rename is gcupdate.gcd, put it in my E:\Garmin\ directory, but it doesn't patch.

Any tips what I'm doing wrong? Again, I've tried installing the Oregonx50_432Beta_JNX.exe (renamed to gcupdate.gcd) on my Oregon 450 with both the 4.20 and 4.32beta installed, but it doesn't seem to patch upon restart.

Thanks a bunch for the help! I'd love to get homemade JNX files working.

Oy.

[edit: more info to help troubleshoot:
I download FirmwarePatcher 2.6, took my Oregonx50_432Beta_JNX.exe, renamed it gupdate.gcd, and tried to drag it into the Patcher, but it kicked back "File format not recognized.]

[edit2: FIXED! Sorry for the hassle, all, I found what I needed to do in post #13, that was the key, I'll leave this here in case I can help others with my experience. Appreciate it!]
