    @kunix
    Are you interested to discover how the US 4.50 & 4.60 Goldwing fw is able to see NT images? I have long wondered if the NT capability of those 2 fw versions could be used to do the same with SP 2600 series which seems to be similar hw.

    These particular navi units update fw only from CF card and are not accessible in the way a Garmin unit is normally afaik. I don't have access to one at present unfortunately, perhaps overman2008 can assist with testing?

    It's probably interesting. There are two problems: no known pre-boot mode, no free time for me currently.

    Yeah, about the first ... i wonder if the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] is a kind of 'pseudo-pre boot mode'? About the 2nd .. bu*ger!!

    It says "loader". So it could be some kind of a pre-boot mode. The question is who initiates the update process. On modern nuvis the main firmware does it. So if it crashes, you can't flash GCD files. On the other hand there is a mysterious Reset button. Maybe it forces the bootloader to start GCD updating process. So, in conclusion, I can't claim anything definite.

    I agree, but these things aren't like modern nuvis really. And i have a pristine SP 2610 just begging to be bricked. The 26x0 series update with an .exe which as you know simply invokes updater.exe to load an *.rgn file, so the question of how the GW units load fw is purely academic imo. I'm more interested in whether we (by that i mean you) can find the mechanism though which the new GW fw now reads NT and if that can be transposed into a modded fw for SP 2600 units? If you're in, we can spin the last few posts off into a new thread. If you're out, i'll just cry myself to sleep you b*****d!

    If you have a map update CF card, you will find the gupdate.gcd on it. If not, i can't tell you how to find the HWID for sure on the unit as i don't have access to a GW presently. You could try something like Menu>Info>System Info or similar. Even if you don't find the HWID, the currently installed sw version will give you a good hint as to if it's a EU or US unit. In any case, the bike itself will disclose the navi unit type. If it's a EU model GoldWing (IT = Italy, right?) it would have HWID 0504 and use EU fw.

    Can't access these things by usb like a nuvi-type unit as far as i can remember. They are like a StreetPilot 2610 in hardware appearance though.

    Thanks a lot guys.
    Both boot.bin and fw_all.bin reports HWID 265 (so it seems to be an USA firmware) and SW Version 450 (firmware 4.5).

    The problem is: the USA model is full in english but all european Wingers needs to have their own language. We can easy change the "written" language installing a multilanguage firmware, like v.2.2 or 2.6 but in this case the unit become *mute*. Does not speak.

    The good news is: the mod is possibile, because someone sell this mod for € 360. Both written, using a multilanguage fw, *and* spoken.

    The question is: in post #86 you speak about a cross-flashing with original HWID. If I join the "USA" boot.bin v. 265/450 and "EU" fw_all.bin v. xxx/260 what values of SW Version I must override?
    In other words, I keep the original boot.bin 256/450, because my unit is an USA model, but I make a substitution of fw_all.bin with the multilanguage version. Do I need to change HWID and/or SW Version in fw_all.bin or can I keep the original?
