what are the differences between locked and unlock FOR OLDER UNITS?

The modification of FID,PID,VID,RID. If you been checking the stats I posted for locked and unlocked, you'll see a pattern.

Put .gpi files in POI folder
1. Why need unclock and lock files?
2. I must remove EasternEuropeCyclopsSample.gpi ? Sample.gpi.... ?

1. You don't need both. Either decrypt (unlock) them yourself or just use the already decrypted (unlocked) files you require.
2. "EasternEurope" Cyclops covers only Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Slovenia. If using that file in those countries then yes, remove the sample file first.

I see your post shows your location as Odessa. There is no Cyclops coverage there. Belarus, Ukraine and Moldova are not included in any current Cyclops files.

For newbie that doesn't know how to "unlock", the unlocked .gpi is posted as a convenient. The original (locked) .gpi is posted for people who need to do some "post-processing" on it; if the posted unlocked file is bad, then people will want the original file to try to unlocked it themselves; if you can post only one, post the original .gpi

Hello Oisiris! Sorry, I was economical in words which led you to understand that I had not searched and found in your post on the 26th. I looked yes, I found, I downloaded and I seperated that of Portugal. However, I veiriquei that it has only 134 kb and I found it very small. So I understood that it was a file that did not have all the cameras and warnings, which is why I requested a complete package. But if it's complete, fine. But you are quite right, as I wrote, your interpretation could only be that I had not really sought. I'm sorry again and thank you for everything, ok? Hugs from Brazil!

First, credit of the Portugal .gpi goes to Sue Davison. Second, small size as relative to what? And how do you know it doesn't have "all the cameras and warnings?" And as for being "complete", you can complain to Cyclops for that.

Thanks for the cyclops files. I'm using the AustraliaNewZealand unlocked gpi on a Garmin Dash Cam 55, I replaced the existing sample gpi with the unlocked gpi in /Garmin/POI folder & deleted all the other country sample files but I didn't see any speed cam warnings so I renamed the file to the same as the original sample file with no luck. I also noticed there was a load of other unl & gpi files in the POI folder i.e. 006-D0697-00.gpi 006-D0697-00.unl. I then went to the dashcam's Settings->System->About menu & noticed there were loads of other countries listed under safety cameras but not Australia so I deleted the other gpi & unl files & the other countries no longer appeared under the About menu (neither did Australia), then I put the original sample file back & Australia appeared so it seems the unlocked gpi is not being recognised! I also tried with another unlocked gpi file & that wasnt listed in the About menu either only the sample file work. Any ideas ??

Thanks again..
