just tried it, does not work

Another thing: did you use your GPSID to generate the unlock code or did you use the serial no?

Read this first then the rest of the topic:

No, read my comments carefully. It's about saving your unlock code files, if you do so using Notepad.

I did use the GPSID taken from settings menu of the GPS, unlock code confirmed by Garmin.
Same issue no way to get the maps unlocked.
And my file was saved as "gmapprom1.unl" using "save as" and choosing "all files".

same issue :-k

Since yours is an Euro version, you can forget about installing the MSM NT map. No loss to you since your version is not able to view the JCV. In fact, the MSM ver 4.39 is more up-to-date than the MSM NT map as the former is updated every Sun/Mon whereas the NT map is quarterly.

Create a \Garmin folder in SD card and place GMAPSUPP.IMG (Garmin detailed map for device) in the folder, and (optionally) place cPOI files (*.GPI files) in \Garmin\POI folder.

ie. SD:\Garmin\GMAPSUPP.IMG and SD:\Garmin\POI\*.GPI.

Hi Malsingers,

I think that its okay but better safe than sorry eh. Okay, my question is that - I am thinking of buying a Nuvi 1250 (Australian version). Has anyone heard of any problems with using this Australian device for loading of Malsing maps?

Thanks in advance lah.

Kind regards,
Cheong

No issue at all. Regardless of whether your set is from Australia, Timbaktu, Antartica or North Pole, as long as it is a Garmin, it can install our MSM map without any problem.
