Thanks for a very quick reply.
I have just been reading the above thread, and here is some more info to post #89
1 Its a nuvi 1490lmt dont know the FW version or HWID.
2 I dont know how or why it got bricked.
3 When turning on device it ONLY shows Garmin logo, nothing else.
4 My pc cant see the device (all other Garmins i try is ok)
5 The ONLY thing i have tried for now, is pre boot mode,
seems to work ok, (if WebUpdater is running it can "see" the 1490
and the unit ID.
6 All drivers is installed.
7 I have not yet tried any other programs than WebUpdater.
8 I have not yet tried any other programs than WebUpdater.
9 The ONLY thing i have tried for now, is pre boot mode,
seems to work ok, (gives me the usb sound) and if
WebUpdater is running it can detect the 1490 and the unit ID,
but will not allow me to RE-INSTALL the FW.
So when it says reinstall i think The FW is current,
but dont know for sure.
10 No backup at all.
So it looks to me pretty much the same as Amos1,
and before i do anything else, i would like some advice
for my situation.
And, if it turns out to be the case.
I also like some help getting a hold on this thread,
as I find it very confusing.
It seems that the problem is solved, and device
is running again, I just cant find the solution.
Any help very much appreciated. and Thanks for your time.
