    Interesting, i'd long suspected that Garmin had intentionally crippled the 250W HWID 0827 by flashing the original logo used on 2xxW HWID 0737 or some modded version of it.

    @smokefree
    Would you be so kind as to upload your original logo 16.bin so we can compare to the standard logo for 2xxW hwid0737?

    @Neil
    Thank you for your suggestion about logo
    Haha Loly, you're too modest as always. I just had a lucky idea, and as usual you did all the real work ....

    @Giomen
    I think smokefree's 250W will now function exactly as a 255W, even could be converted to 465T [minus BT of course] probably without issues.

Only a spotlight and magnifier saved my health - no microphone in hole on corps is no BT. After some days the fellow remembered where he could see BT it was in built-in Help. I deleted the all file with link to BT and all was drunk happily ever after as usual.
    Garmin, how much is 30 pieces of silver for Judas today? Were they worthy for crucifix of GPSPower?

    I don't mind putting my unit at the disposition of science... just let me know what to do.
