Thread: IMPORTANT! If you want HELP in case of a bricked Garmin device, please follow this

Many thanks for your reply, Butters.

Incorrect flash or wrong fw is not reasonable, because used up to a moment before putting it in the box (where it remained for 6 months).
And before, updated only with GarminExpress (is a lifetime map version).

Flash chip damaged is plausible, because even the backup of NV region 154 fail:
update.txt:

rrgn,154,2:/BUP_154.bin
reboot

Only a mysterious JEFF.BIN file, appears on SD... Is the soul of my died navigator? :D

A curiosity: in this or similar (Drive serie) navigator, when in pre-boot mode and in normal operation, using Updater.exe, how appears in USB Device field?
