Garmindevice.xml is created every time the device is cold booted.
Data changes depending on which files are installed in the device and a lot of the data also comes from region 41.(and possibly other regions)
A corrupt garmindevice.xml usually means that there is corruption elsewhere in the device's complex memory structure.

Kenwood have different garmindevice.xml like others unit.
If you read with care what @dasilvarsa wrote to you then you will find out that if you add different xml in your device nothing will change, becouse on every boot new xml is created, but if xml is not auto created then something is very wrong with your device and nuvi can't read/write garmindevice.xml

Everything you do, you do so at your own responsibility.
I am not responsible for yours errors, mistakes and damage created and ......
Tested by me and it works on Kenwood DNX9260BT with navigation module W02-5378-45.
To enter pre-boot mode, follow photos.
Please be very carefull with solder these wires. Soldering contacts are very small and fragile. Do not use a high temperature solders. You will need a skill for electronics. If you do not have this, you will destroy the module, irremediably.
If you happened so, you still have a chance, one last chance.
Go outside only one wire, on that you put it to ground in outside, (chassis housing or - 12V), to enter pre-boot mode.
Like in this picture.:
......... The discussion will continue in post #73 and #75.

And to me, happened same thing.
The representative Kenwood asked me 650 euros for new Navigation Module or 250 to repair my Navigation Module.
Attention !!! Do not delete the files img_rsrc.gir and GarminDevice.xml from the memory of Garmin. (You can delete all the rest)
Do not format the memory ofGarmin.
Spoiler: +
If you accidentally formatted memory, before disconnecting from the PC recopied file img_rsrc.gir.
Download img_rsrc.gir : Attention !!!
This img_rsrc.giris Only for DNX9260BT and DNX7260BT.
Do not use to other devices.
Always make a backup of internal memory with all files and folders.
Do not forget to make the System files and folders visible from Folder Options.
Start/Control Panel/Appearance and Personalization/Folder Options (Windows 7 Ultiamate) [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
- Point 2A
If you have deleted the file img_rsrc.gir or format the memory of Garmin.
After restart Kenwood DNX9260BT, the app Garmin will not start and you can not access the internal memory.
- Point 2C
Now we have let's make to restore internal memory Garmin.
(or copied all the files and folders, or copied file img_rsrc.gir back to the memory Garmin)
For this step we need USB Image Tool.
After finishing firmware update I disconnected the two wires for pre-boot mode and I have isolated separately and we left out for any eventuality.
Disconnect from PC and we need to reset Kenwood DNX9260BT.
Then I redesigned settings and started the Garmin normal.
But it is not fully functional The longer it takes only one step.
We need to reset Kenwood DNX9260BT
I put SD card in card reader from Kenwood DNX9260BT.
The update went well by SD card reader, Garmin has become normal and functional.
