If the former, and it's not booting because of the cure fw's presence, load the full original fw and then create a folder named Garmin in the device root, boot it and then check if it's created a file GarminDevice.xml inside [if it's named GarminDevice.tmp rename the extension to .xml]. If you have the .xml there, connect to WebUpdater to load necessary files and then replace your maps. If the latter, create a new simple volume then format it first using RMPrepUSM [link in first post].

If it's none of those scenarios, post again with full details.

Unfortunately I deleted the whole partition so connecting too the Nuvi via a PC/MAC aint possible (diskmanger is not showing the device). I also got hard times finding the right .gcd file for the Nuvi 265 hwid: 851. I need this too try Kunix cure method.
