Hello
In my country there is only one GPS map available in a limited edition.
It comes in a Garmin device.
Knowing soeone who's got it, is there any way to extract the map so I can use it with my HTC TyTn II ?

Thanks

connect your gps device with pc via usb, install mapsource (you'll find it on garmin's official website) andfind in the menus option to extract (or something, i can't remember) and that's it. i think it'll work because i did that same thing while i was transferring garmin adriaroute to my pc. good luck!

Hello again
I've copied the content of the GPS to my PC.

What should I do now ?

It says that the map is locked.
anyone knows how to unlock it ? It is not available in the keygen, as it's a custom made map.

Mate, in the jetmouse keygen you have an option at the bottom for custom map, you have to put there the ID of the map and voila, the unlock code is generated. Make proper unl file, with the same name as map, watch that it doesn't have txt extension and you are good to go.

To get the Product ID (a.k.a. Map ID) of a Garmin map product from an existing gmapsupp.img file, follow these procedures.

1. Open the map gmapsupp.img by a binary file editor such as UltraEdit. ;
2. Search for the ASCII string “GARMIN MDR”, quotes not included.
3. If not found, quit, nothing can be done. Otherwise, scroll back one or two pages to see if it contains the name of a map product similar to the string in blue polygon in the attached picture.
4. If no name of map product found, go back to step 2 above and find next match.
5. Count 6 bytes back from the first character of the map product name in blue polygon and copy down the first two bytes (as seen in red box).
6. Reverse the values of the two bytes, enter that to your scientific calculator in hex mode and convert that to decimal.
For example, in the picture the first two bytes are “C5 00″. Reverse that to get “00 C5″ then enter “00C5″ (with no space and quotes) to your calculator in hex mode and convert that to decimal. You should get the answer 197.
