Thread: Convert Nuvi 1450 US to MY/SG?

Hi All,

Thanks for the detailed discussion/guide on modding nuvi1450 to nuvi 1460 MY/SG - But I am hitting these error/warning messages when reboot the GPS after flashing firmware:

Some hardware in this GPS is not working - Please send it to Garmin Engineer
Mobile signal not available

The GPS eventually stuck at "updating ecoroute hd software" forever unless I turn it off. I was flashing a modded firmware with the following config:

1. boot.bin from 1450 (version 6.20)
2. fw_all.bin and fw1_resources.bin from 1460 (version 3.10)


Any clue of getting this sorted out? Many thanks! Is the problem due to the boot.bin version I am using?

Rename the text folder and copy over the text folder from the US firmware.
That should solve your error message upon boot up.

Thanks.
