Yep, that also means that you did it the hard way, not using the sd card method which can enable the features as well as i suggested:

So you either missed that, or this in Post #1:

Flash full 34xx firmware
Unpack the file to an empty SD card, turn nuvi off, insert card, turn nuvi on.
remove sd

and to return to 37xx ,its logo included:
Flash full 37xx firmware
same as above,unpack the file to an empty SD card, turn nuvi off, insert card, turn nuvi on.
remove sd

Or you just wanted to do it the hard way for the experience and that's ok. No problem anyway, you got there in the end and that's the main thing .

While on that subject, about the enabling of features via xml: my recollection is that it could be done with v7.10 fw, but not with anything after that and i see no contradiction between the two statements in Para 1 & 2. They both mean that v7.10 fw and earlier works by xml method, but later versions don't work (i.e. from 7.20). Not sure why it didn't happen with 7.10 for you ...?
EDIT: Downgraded to 7.10 overnight and xml method won't work, downgraded further to 6.50 and worked. You're right .. sorry. I see Caty has already fixed Post #1.
