Hi - recently we purchased a Garmin eTrex 10 here in the UK. When we received the device we discovered it was unable to display UK OS-Grid references. Following further investigation, we discovered the device had been supplied with Chinese Firmware.
We connected the device using Windows Garmin Express. The device connects fine with USB. On checking for Firmware updates no updates were indicated.
Looking at the device setup, it reports Firmware 2.20 and a Unit ID. 386xxxxxxx . Looking online, further updates of Firmware upto 3.6* appear available.
Our question is, is it possible to download and Flash an updated more recent version of Firmware or is the device restricted to the Chinese 2.20 Firmware.
Many thanks in anticipation of your advice and guidance.
