Thread: How To Get Your SD Card ID in Your Garmin Device

I know how to unlock the maps using all the linked utilities on this forum and they work just fine. I would thank you profusely but you won't allow me to!
I was just wondering if you experts could give me some inside info into using the sdCard ID. Otherwise what is the point in finding it out if I can't use it?
Is the 8 digit number in hex code? Because the unlock code is 25 digits, right? So do I need to plug this number (in 10 digit decimal - same as the gps id) into the JetMouse keygen and use the generated number in the .unl file.
I am sure this stuff is intuitive to you guys but it is a complete mystery to me.
Sure, I understand I don't NEED to use it with your easy unlocking software but....
Otherwise, what is the point of discovering the sd card ID using the above software?
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I don't like just blindly using a solution, I prefer to understand it. Purely acedemic of course. You guys have given us a gem of info but no clue on how to apply it. That drives me nuts!
