You can use the JMKG1.5, even if the FID is 2496 (works fine for the Cyclops)

Lol sly Rog

Try with nuvi 2x5W (GCD File) software version 7.60

Old firmwares released before Jan 2010 are not .gma affected, you can install even maps with FID greater than 2200 with an .unl file with that old firmware , but not convenient because many Nuvi bugs not resolved in it and no support for a second map on an SD card and problems with TMC etc , see changelog here.

Code:

In new frmwares (after Jan 2010.gma protection introduction) .unl without .gma in products with FID greater than 2200 are not recognized in Nuvis.
It can happen just in one case: if you delete .unl and .gma by mistake sometimes Nuvi remember them and doesnt gives the unauthenticated status, but this untill you reset Nuvi. After reset nothing is recognized:I checked personally this event.

Or.... BB ,pietu ,marcoq ,me ,Garmin and Cyclops co. etc. are we dreaming of different dreams? :D

Sorry,Caty....I honestly do not know people's dreams that you mentioned .... but I know that I tried it on 2 models with the latest firmware available, including the 250W I read two maps on SD
The 1340 also uses the updated GMA .....
Others do not know and I have limited myself to produce evidence made ​​personally.
To test, I renamed the file UNL and Cyclops are not processed, rightly
As I mentioned, I also feel tonight on 25xx ... and you know if it works on that.

Bye,bye

EDIT:
I did other tests
I also tried with a map section with MS to another nuvi Locked NT EU 2013.40 (LM)
UNL files created for the Cyclops Italy and map NT
Previous Master-reset for ALL device
Results:
nuvi 250W (410 firmware) Cyclops works fine..also in route active. Also the map works fine
nuvi 1340 (620 firmware) Cyclops works fine..also in route active. The map no works
nuvi 1440 (620 firmware) Cyclops works fine..also in route active. The map no works
nuvi 2595 (770 firmware) Cyclops no works. The map no works

Make your own conclusions

I dont know which conclusion we can reach, .gma works for some products and not for others, it works in some firmwares and not in others! Garmin drives me crazy lol
Let's users test in theirs devices

Not quite so. Garmin have its timesheet. From version to version they gradually cut off 2200, 2300, 2400, 2500 and so on...
