Sorry if it sounded rude but I just don't understand how to make this work and I'm an expert in computers since 13.5 years so I really wonder how a random average joe could get this unlocking tutorial to work. There is many many links pointing to several threads that each says different things, some download links are down, there's billions of different Garmin models (2xxx, 3xxx...) but no matter what I follow, nothing seems to work.

1- I've made my backup with (RGN Tool v0.78) by loading (GUPDATE.GCD) on my Garmin 2555LMT gps. It then created 4.25Mb file named (41.bin) as well as a 752Kb (ldr.bin) file in the updater folder. The update log says the following:
(nüvi 2xx5 Software Version 8.00, UID: Censored, HWID: Censored
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Parsing "rrgn,41,1:/41.bin"
Success
Parsing "reboot"

2- I've used the modding program with the blue icon, to check the boxes to enable features after selecting on my SD card, the 41.bin which had nothing checked and ldr.bin which had a few checked. I've clicked save then I've edited the (Update.txt) file to change the text from left to the one from right. Pretty much all that changed is the first letter "R" that is now "X" since a thread said X was to restore the bin file.
rrgn,41,1:/41.bin xrgn,41,1:/41.bin
reboot reboot
3- I shutted down the gps, restarted it but nothing happened. It doesn't seem like it restored the new bin file with the unlocked features. When I go in applications > EcoRoute, it is still locked and now I'm out of ideas... at a point that I'm almost considering wasting 10$ to Garmin rather than lose another 10 houres messing around. I just don't want to pay mostly because I'm against their new policies of removing features that previously used to be free. Thanks if you can help!
