It does not matter if it is a soft brick or a hard brick.
The internet is full of users screwing up their Garmin units not knowing what they are doing.
Then users like you spend post after post getting the user to understand what they are doing wrong.
Then they still do not understand anything this goes back and forth when they should not of tried in the first place without understanding what they are about to do.
I would not spend so much time trying to dig a user out of a hole he are she made for themselves because they did not know what they are doing in the first place.
Just so they can use Garmin maps on their unit for free like Birdseye view maps.
This has nothing to do with moral, ethical and legal argument.
It is just plain I do not know what I am doing so I am going to do it anyway.
They never take the time to read anything.
Only bits and pieces of instructions and think they can do it.
Then you go on to explain it over and over how to fix it.
A total waste of time because they just do not get it.
Some do say all is working again but you will never know because they find another forum and start it all over again.
None of this should be even posted here in the first place.
The forum has made it very clear about Garmin products being posted here or how to patch the unit to use illegal maps.
I would hate to see this forum being closed because users did not pay attention to the rules.
