Thread: How to convert 1450 firmware to PH / ASIA

Anyone please? Badly needed help. So frustrated with my newly bought 1450, coz I thought that I can use the JCV here in Phils. Tried flashing it with the steps in this thread [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] but no luck, the GPS crashes and turns off when switches to junction view..

I was thinking that maybe the only local Nuvi 1360 will only work for the map (CN Philippines NT 2011.30) that supports JCV?

Please correct me if I'm wrong. Inputs are much appreciated. Thanks everyone!

1). Use RGN_Tool to save boot.bin (from original US 1450 gupdate.gcd)
2). Use RGN_Tool to save fw_all.bin (from Ph 1360 gupdate.gcd)
3). Use RGN_tool to save fw1_resources.bin (from Ph 1360 gupdate.gcd)

4). Use RGN_Tool :: Load US boot.bin from1). , fw1_resources.bin from3). , fw_all.bin from2).
5). You will see boot.bin hwid = 972
6). You have to override fw_all hwid to be 972 same as boot.bin

7). Save to out.rgn
8). Flash via preboot mode & updater.exe

.... Good luck.

Where can I get those files? Sorry for the question..

You should recheck your rgn file with RGN_Tool to be sure it's no error report and have hwid 972 both boot&fw_all.

More info ::
Ph v2.20
fw_all.bin = 10.1 MB (10,689,792 bytes)
fw1_resources.bin = 20.0 MB (21,074,232 bytes)

Original US 14xx v5.40 boot.bin = 410 KB (419,984 bytes)
-------------------------
out.rgn = 30.6 MB (32,184,098 bytes)

You must delete gupdate.gcd before. (within .system folder)
You can name out.rgn or 097201000220.rgn ., it's up to you.
