Thread: Enable features in nuvi 22xx, 23xx, 24xx and 24x5 & 25x5

I think you mean hold the speed field [or hold the upper RH corner of the volume page] to enter the hidden Diagnostics Page to enable Mass Storage Mode instead of Media Transfer Protocol to view hidden .System folder on PC.

Yes, places along the road is not customizable to show select pois. I don't actually use my 2595 much, but have default garmin map theme and dashboard only at present.

No 'custom main menu' in the 2xx5 firmware i'm sorry, this is it in nuvi 2460/dezl 560:



Maybe that and other features will be enabled by later fw as i mentioned earlier. [Don't hold your breath though ... ]

I suspect you've missed the point i made earlier that certain features are not available because they aren't in the firmware unfortunately. You can set your location to a rural area to see if DEM [Digital Elevation Modelling aka 3D Terrain] is available to it. Try different zoom levels. When you zoom out beyond the detail map you'll see another entirely different representation type of 'DEM' which is built into the OEM Basemap and is more like the colour shading of a printed paper map.

There are two complely different Garmin features which confusingly both have '3D' in the naming, 3D Terrain [DEM] and 3D Buildings & Landmarks. A unit's firmware might have the capability to see the 'fake 3D' of Buildings & Landmarks [like a moving 2D representation of perspective drawings on paper, but it's not really 3D] however that unit might not be capable of displaying DEM [3D Terrain], an example of that is the nuvi 7x5 series. However nuvi 3xxx series can handle both in the firmware. I know the 2595 can't even use the 'fake 3D' of the gmap3D.img [they only show as 2D outlines which are probably still only polygons build into the detail map anyway which it can display regardless] so maybe it can't process the specific DEM map images in it's firmware totally regardless of what's [apparently] enabled in region 140/supported_features.html.

Again, hard reset is the Immediate Action/First Aid to ensure all features are available following any manipulation of the unit's firmware or regions.

If any map type is unchecked in Settings>Map & Vehicle>MyMaps it will not be available to display regardless of what's checked in Map Layers and vice versa. Can't have one without the other.

SG 2565 has possible PCB P/N of 105-01927-00; 01870-00; 01964-01/02 or 01787-10. US/EU 2xx5 has 105-01925-00/02; 01926-00/02/10, 01916-00 or 02067-00. No matches SG>US.

I can't find BR 2565 firmware, do you know the possible PCBs for it Angelo or Loly? I suspect it's more closely related to US 2xx5 than SG 2565.

Hi, just my first

@celio_f
Welcome to GPSPower and thanks for that info. [I've removed your 'Unit ESN' aka Unit ID to protect your identity].

HWID 1371 & PCB P/N of 01926-00 match US/EU 2xx5 hardware/firmware.

Loly & Angelo, what happened when you flashed 140.bin from US/EU to the BR 2565?

G'day 00rt, welcome to GPSPower.

There may be other reports too, but i posted recently about the icons not appearing in 2013 models [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. My personal attempt was with a US 3597 firsthand and i've heard of other 2013 units with same negative results, sure the features might appear in supported_features.html after modding of rgn140 but that's useless without the Icons to select in the unit's Apps screen. As i said to that member in other thread, you can try though.

The other thread is newer and uses the Mod_2xxx.exe to easily and safely enable/disable features. Keep a backup of both regions 41 and 140 before attempting as said in the other thread and probably best to post over there if you need more help. If you do try, a report as to whether the icons appear or not in your 2457 would be welcome regardless.
