I guess your 260W HWID is 0827 ? mine is 0835 and it doesn't work. load until the last 3 sec and aborted " firmware missing" I have to reflash back 260W firmware for the unit to be back to work again ... :cry:

am i doing the right thing?i followed exactly as in the http://nuvi255wfirmware.blogspot.com

my nuvi now is 205W v 2.60 (previously 205W v 5.00). is it suppose to be 205W or 255W to view the JCV?

i manage to view the intersection list (i think, with the gray icon at the lower right screen) but still no JCV and i'm waiting it to appear.

I believe for Nuvi205W, the steps should be Nuvi205W > Nuvi2W > Nuvi255W Sing/Mal. At least that's how I did with a couple of Nuvi205Ws and both managed to display JCV.

Try renaming RGN to 093000010280.rgn (a tip I've got from Bro Othroz).
