If you connect it to GarminExpress it should offer to re-install the latest version of the detail map (main navigation map) to which the device is entitled. Also accept all other files offered by GE which you want to use (Voices, Vehicles etc.). Look again at my post above for how to get the necessary basemap (you'll have problems navigating without one installed and GE won't offer it to you so it must be done manually).

My question is: at the moment when I brought a device can I upload any map?

I'm unsure what you're asking there. If you mean can it use mapping for other areas outside it's OEM entitlement the answer is yes provided they are either legally purchased from Garmin or are unlocked. Your device doesn't have MSV/GSV protection in its firmware. If you're asking something else post again clarifying.

If you can see .System (see previous Post #149, last point) you can easily delete any unwanted .img files.

Another question: where can I download another language for the device?
Question: I can change the language at the menu interface (in settings I only have English)

That's because you haven't accepted the required Voices offered by GarminExpress. Without the relevant .vpm files you will only have the default EN voice. Connect to GE again after re-reading my post #151. i.e., this: "Also accept all other files offered by GE which you want to use (Voices, Vehicles etc.)". Once you have the required Voice file you can select it in settings.

very strange ... I updated with GE map NTE 2020.10, but device does not see any map when opening.

Ready :clasic:..... after many days and I chose with your help from here I made to revive and operate Garmin. I downloaded NTU 2018.30 and it looks like I solved the map issue. thanks again for the help received.:bere:

P.S. could i have the device interface in another language? (now it is in english)
