Put MFM map file gmapsupp.img in SD card /map directory


Can I replace the new gmapsupp.img file without the SD card, i.e. install into the system folder? I thought putting a copy into the Garmin folder will work?



Yes and No.

No gmapsupp.img cannot be put in main memory /system folder
Yes it can be put in main memory buy in /map directory

Do this at your own RISK as Nuvi is VERY unforgiving to map file corruption. You risk bricking your Nuvi. :-'

Hi everyone,
i encountered the same problem as well, is there a solution for this?

Please advise,
Thanks

==>> Found the solution, its the anti virus blocking the installation file midway thru the installation, once authorise the file, then installation is successful.
