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

So far so good. Next steps:

1. Modify the boot.bin using a hex editor as detailed in kunix's post [Only registered and activated users can see links. ].
2. Load the patched boot.bin into RGN_Tool and save it as an RGN file observing safe naming of 097201000630.rgn.
3. Create Update.txt file with following content:

Code:

4. Open V6.30 firmware file in RGN_Tool and save the BIN files from the second (fw_all.bin) and third (resources.bin) fields somewhere convenient using the default naming.
5. Copy those 2 BIN files into a CLEAN microSD card.
6. Create in the card a root folder (alongside the 2 BIN files) named Garmin and in it create the usual Updater\0972 folders.
7. Place Update.txt solely in the 0972 folder (Put nothing else in there, that includes no Ldr.bin).
8. Force device off, insert card into the device.
9. Load 097201000630.rgn into Updater.exe and connect the device to flash it as usual in preboot.

If you aren't quick enough and the device drops preboot before the flash starts, check that there hasn't been a new file named "last_id.bin" in the 0972 folder. If it's present delete it before trying again.

Report results and contents of Update.log if it's created in 0972 folder.

I could not get the correct Kunix's post or I'm an idiot (the latest will not surprise anyone ), but clicking on "here" leads me to the thread:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ] - page 4 and on that page, there is no Kunix post that is connected with HEX Editor (or at least I could not find it incl. on page 3 and 5)
All the rest is clear, but please check and inform me about the exact post number.
