I tried to simulate a very long route (900km) but still there is not junction view available :(.
Next, i looked into the map. There are two maps on my units. Once came preinstalled, and one I just downloaded from here (unlocked image file) and i copied it to Garmin Nuvi\Map (i don't have the SD card on my unit yet). Once I turn on the unit, i can see 2 maps available (under Map option) and i only selected the latest one that came with the JCV file. And still, the damn junction view doesn't show up :-). One thing i noticed was during start up, My unit showed 2 dates regarding the maps. Something like: 2009 whereis map....copyright....
2010 whereis map....copyright....
Is this normal, dvazg? and regarding the GUPDATE file, doesn't it have to be the one when you last update the firmware? I asked because after unsuccessful at the first try (at flashing the unit), i reinstalled the firmware using the webupdater which give me another GUPDATE file. After successfully flashing the unit at the 2nd. try, i didn't have the latest GUPDATE file at hand (because i bak it up at home) so i used the first GUPDATE file which i saved in the usb stick. Could it be the reason that the junction view doesn't not show up?

When you turn on your nuvi, it is normal that it shows 2 different maps with 2 different dates.
Try simularing the route, by turning off the old map (go to tools ->settings -> map -> info).
If it still doesn't work, please write here the following: what is your splash screen? (go to diagnostic menu by pressing the battery icon for 5 sec, press next once, press start test and then more) - look at the number next to Splash. It should be D1340-50.
Next, where did you put the maps? Old map is probably a gmapprom.img in the .System folder. Disable it by renaming it to e.g gmapprom._img and move the new map into the same location, giving it a name gmapprom.img (if you have unl files together with maps, make sure you move them as well).
I assume, you put the correct JCV file into the JCV folder within .System folder. You can also repeat the procedure by putting JCV into Garmin/JCV/JCV file, but keep the old map disabled.
Personally, I keep my map on a SD card, in the Map folder, and JCV is in Garmin folder, also on SD card. Probably if you have map in "Map" folder on your unit, JCV should be in "Garmin/JCV" directory.
I thinks it is highy unprobable, if the splash version is correct that FW version and gupdate.gcd file would affect the outcome.
Very odd. I wonder if some models have different hardware/GPS chipsets (MTK)?
The current download for my nuvi 1250 is only up to v4.80.
Checked again today.
Note difference to the common 5.10 here:
"nuvi 12xx ([GCD File) software version 5.10" dated February 28, 2011
and mine (AUS/NZ model):
"nuvi 12xx (GCD File - MTK) software version 4.80" dated March 7, 2011

Oh well too bad for me.:angry:
And what about "Routes"; 14xx support this function.Quote:

So far Routes are not available in 13xx series.
@scubadoo: this firmware flashing procedure does not apply to MTK models - sorry. Maybe in future we might do that as well. Can you please write here your splash version? (how-to: see post 106)
Attached OCR capture from my nuvi 1250 MTK version:
can anybody show here splash screen of a nüvi 1390, 1450 or 1490 MTK version?
@ scubadoo
The trick should work also on the MTK model but it should be used MTK boot.bin to flash the Splash. I think the guys can help you prepare such .rgn.
They are available but locked. Not possible to be unlocked via Splash. Need firmware patch.Quote:

Routes are locked by PCB number and cant be changed.
If you flash nuvi series 13xx to 1460 SG firmware of nuvi ,routes is available
