/private/var/mobile/Applications/"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"/garmin-nav.app/storage-western-eu/.System

This "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" is the folder for each apps, so you have to go folder by folder to look for garmin-nav.app

And so far it works fine for me...

Yes, I've put the map there and rename it

But when I check on setting > myMaps > none found

But the garmin already show "ready to navigate"

I had the same problem, and this is how i solved it.


1. Install Garmin Streetpilot Onboard in your iphone.
2. Download or create "gmapsupp.img" from Malfreemaps. Download link for .exe file can be found here http://www.malfreemaps.com/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=8442 .
3. Change "gmapsupp.img" to "gmapprom.img" .
4. Install "iexplorer" in your computer, this is a file explorer for you iphone. If you have ifunbox, it won't open one of the directory, don't know why.
5. In iexplorer, search for this directory "var\mobile\Applications\[xxxxxxxxxxxx]\garmin-nav.app\storage-usa\.System" ( [xxxxxxxxx] is a random number and alphabet for the app directory, try open one by one and see which one is the garmin folder).
6. Copy the "gmapprom.img" that you rename before, and paste it in this directory.
7. Now you need to install "ifile" in your phone. (ifile is the file explorer in iphone).
8. If you already have (or downloaded) .deb file for the "ifile" , just copy it into " /var/root/Media/Cydia/AutoInstall " (using ixplorer) and it will install automatically after you reboot your iphone.
9. Next step, open "ifile" and go to the same directory as mentioned in (5), then tap the blue colour arrow next to the "gmapprom.img" .
10. Change the permission ( User, Group, World ), all to [ Read , Write ].
11. Exit ifile, then open Garmin Streetpilot Onboard, then you will have the desired MFM super awesome map.

Hi Fazo,
I have downloaded Garmin USA version 2.0 and followed the steps above. However, when launching the software, it stop at the main screen which shows the company logo "Garmin" and it looks like loading forever. Anyone experienced the similar problem?

Thanks.

If non jailbroken iPhone, how?

[tencheenian]

i tried the guide, but the garmin software just load up and shows the logo for a few seconds then goes back to the home screen again. Any ideas what is causing this problem?

FYI, i am using a jailbroken ios5.0.1 iphone 4. I wonder if there is any compatibility issue for garmin apps on ios5.
