Garmin - MfM map does come with JCV but works only on localized unit. Did you get unlock code before you download map at Garmin Sin website ?

Is your unit a localized bought unit ?

When you download the filee and unzip it, did you tranfder all the files in the Nuvi root directory. 2 files are most important are gmapprom.img and SgMyMfre.JCV. The former is the map data file while the later is the JCV data file. Both must replace the old file as they work as a match pair.

Map file should be in root /system while JCV file should be in root/system/JCV

Make sure only "ONE" map is enabled/selected in Nuvi Setup menu "Maps"

can MFM-Garmin map installed in Garmin Android devices?
What will be the different between this map and "here" maps?
I was told if I purchase the new Garmin device, I can only install the maps from Garmin web site, is it true? Thanks.
