Reply With QuoteDelux firmware is no longer being sold or supported as far as I know, but is based on Asian firmware sure. That firmware was made by an expert and accordingly I believe it's safe if you can track it down.
Attempting your own conversion without serious fw manipulation is fraught with danger. Simple hybrid conversions with original boot.bin and Asian fw1_resorces.bin and fw_all.bin may disappoint but are usually easily reversable. My own experience with hybrid 13xx and 1690 was not good.

Convert Nuvi 1300 MTK to 1360/1460 or 1690?
Hi everyone,
I got a Nuvi 1300 MTK chipset hwid 1104 sw 6.20. With wonderful people in [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] I got LA, JCV ebabled! Thanks guys
Next I want to try to get Routes feature. I read this [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
So the way to get Routes is to flash to another country model.

Does this mean I can not convert my 1300 MTK hwid 1104? Could I use MTK boon.bin with NonMTK fw_all.bin?
Any new info about PCB unlocking? This might be a way for MTK versions. Garmin uses same firware for all 13xx and 14xx. I do see 1450 has Routes by default. I just need to trick firmware I think.Last edited by flagmax; 21st June 2014 at 08:06 PM.
