what i need was i rename the default sexy voice to other language example portuguese_.vpm. or even american or british.
Unfortunately Garmin's festive season voice packs are compatible only with the 200-series Nuvis. By doing this they have sidelined the tens of thousands of 300, 600 and 700-series users.
Actually, Garmin voice file names
do not have to be, e.g. "English_British_.vpm", "Cantonese_.vpm", "Portugese_.vpm".
You can in fact, name them as "A.vpm", "Sexy voice.vpm" or "My favorite voice.vpm" if you want. Those are external Windows file names. What you see displayed on your unit under "Languages" or "Locale" settings are the
internal language names. They're the
internal language names that are read and recognized by your Nuvi unit,
not the external file name.
Internal language file names however, have to comply with Garmin's standard, e.g. "English American", "Catala", "Danish", "Mandarin (China)", etc. There's a utility that can change the internal voice file name (I have it stashed somewhere), but changing to some other alternative language may yield unpredictable voice prompts.
