Thread: Nuvi 40&50 in German is Nuvi 140T&150T (Traffic!!!)+ Nuvi 40/50 to 42/52 tests

@captain.snail
How many of these nuvi's do you have ?
You are very brave man to dismantle new nuvi and post pictures like this.

@dasilvarsa

1. There is enough.
2. After assembly it is the same new.

I think you have at least 2 !
Tell me if I'm right please.

@ dasilvarsa

We have more than 2!

@Captain. snail, tks a lot!
From the observation of the screen fo FM Traffic Status, one can see that the boot record the traffic receiver of 140T is quite different of the GTM 25, 26, 35, 36 and 60, and seems to me to be a big challenge to make this system functional with the firmware that uses traffic with external cables.You was also very skillfil in remove the metal cover and expose the processor. The processor is a ARM STA2064N2 of 533 mhz and that supports the Galileo satellite network, which may explain the reason of this model have been released first in Europe. Anyone who wants information on this processor check it out at [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

The same processor is set in all devices of 2012 nüvi line, but an exception 3ххх line.

That interesting information!! Apparently you have great familiarity with hardware Garmin. Do you mean that all nuvi, 40/50, 24x5, 25x5 has exactly the same processor/chipset and soon, everyone will be able to use the benefits of future Galileo network? Note that there is a slight variation in the termination of processors models, N2 up to Y2 (533 to 754mhz) so they can be of the same family, with the same general model designation, but with differences in processing speed. I believe that knowing the hardware of gps can open doors to unveil many "mysteries" of the firmware and its compatibilities, so I emphasize their importance.
I would like very much to know what is the processor of 3790, which becomes very hot. Is the same of the entire line of the 3xxx series 2012, apparently the coldest? Another curiosity I have is knowing how to open the case of the 3xxx without "destroy it.". Who knows one of these days you can teach us...
(sorry by the subject "slightly" off topic.....)

You can see how to here

a good tool is a plastic credit card IMHO

@angelozip
I will try to answer your some questions soon.
