    @andrus,

    I have no idea what you did.

    Why you had to do all that......???????

    The best this to reset to factory default is:

    Reset on Colorado
    Warning: This procedure will delete information (waypoints, routes, tracks, etc) from your GPS and settings may be set back to factory defaults.
    1. Power the unit OFF
    2. Hold down the two Soft Keys for 2 seconds
    3. While continuing to hold the 2 Soft Keys down, press and hold down the Power button for an additional 5 seconds
    4. Release all buttons, and select YES to the prompt asking "if you want to clear all user data?"
    This form of reset does not seem to reset all of the settings to factory defaults,
    just a few of the basics like Time Zone and Language,
    the remainder of the settings are still taken from your existing profile files.
    Once you have completed a reset remember to
    place the Colorado outside in a stationary position for 20 minutes in plain view of the sky
    so that it can rebuild the almanac before using it again.
    Note: Holding down both soft keys and the select button in a similar fashion seems
    to do a similar reset to the Colorado.
    This may be a master reset that will also reset the profiles back to the default

    That is all that needed to be done.

    As for the maps are they unlocked??????


    Why didn't you back it up before you did a firmware update too??????
