Thread: Enable features in your nuvi 12xx, 13xx and 14xx - JCV, LA, TTS

G'day Phantomguy,
Splash D1340-00 does not give SLI, LA or JCV. You need to flash the senior logo file to give Splash D1340.50 to enable those features. 1300 doesn't have a BT module so you can't enable Bluetooth. The flash won't disable your POIs [e.g. Cyclops] or traffic subscriptions.

Using the unit without a basemap will run you into trouble eventually. Load V5.01 from here: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. You don't need .sum files, they're only checksum files and can be deleted or left, it doesn't matter.

Easiest way for you to flash is to use acleite's universal microSD card method. Look at the base of Post #1. This will flash your non-MTK US 1300 and backup NV as well, extract it onto a clean card, insert it to nuvi and turn it on. Let it reboot before removing the card:

Spoiler: Click

Keep the files which are created in the root of the card, especially backup41.bin. Please backup your full file system before the flash [especially your favourites], and clear NV or hard reset before and after flashing.

PS: Mate, don't do consecutive posts. That just makes the thread even LOOOONGER. I've combined them for you. Better to use the edit button.
