confuse now with my garmin 205w

Postby stupidboy » Tue Oct 26, 2010 11:55 am

i am not sure which version is my Garmin 205w (MY/SG/TW/US)
as i followed the tutorial to flash the unit for Lane Assist feature, but end up not working.
so now i wish to update or restore it back to my original, but i am not sure my original is which version. any way can tell it?
or any tutorial can reflash or update to latest version?

another noob question, we can't install other OS like papago in to our garmin rite? ( as i can;'t see any tutorial on it)
