I have more experimenting to do and more things to read about and learn from. No other changes were made to any files inside by the update. In the SQLITE folder I see two folders that were changed, system.db and user_strings.db The 8GB SD card has a PNX folder with nothing inside it, where the original had a file named 01XV08W0.PNX in it. My old card didnt have that folder, and when I had the DNX6180 in engineer mode it had a screen that showed 4 boxes and one was Junction View and it had four zero's in it and said Missing. It changed the gmapsupp.img, gmapsupp.unl, gmapsupp.gma and.

I pulled the 8GB SD card back out and examined what the update changed. The spelling feature was always a little slow anyway but this seems a bit more exaggerated. When you selected a letter it would beep like normal but would then freeze for like 15 seconds before showing that selected letter on the screen. I did notice that speling a point of interest was slow and cumbersome. The map showed exactly where I know the place is. This was under points of interest/food etc. I verified by searching for a FiveGuys hamburger place that wasnt there back in 2010 (old maps on my head unit). This way if I brick it I can just put the original SD card back in it.Īnd an XML file I created after installing the 8GB SD card.Īfter running the update I now have the 2022.25 maps to use. Testing has gone good so far, I was able to duplicate the original SD card and then ran the update on that. I had an 8GB SD card and created two partitions on that, the FAT16 I made somewhere around 16 MB(larger than 8Kb in original) and the rest exFAT. It had two partitions on it, a very small FAT16(only about 8 Kbs) and the rest of the 4GB card was exFAT. I took my dn圆180 apart and removed the SD card.(micro SD) My DNX6180 seems to be working on the 2022.25 North America Map Just wanted to update this thread since I posted a bunch in here. Makes me think that is space on internal card shown in ? (Garmin/Pnx/01XV08W0.PNX)Īlso something labeled Free_space=2285010944 Name=Internal Note: Inside my Pnx folder might be a file namedĪt least that's what shows up in the xml file.

Then I just have to figure out what to put in them? Looks like there is a 01XV08W0.PNX file in the Pnx folder.Īlso I may have about 2.2 GB free space on my internal SD card. Then the folder named Pnx with the folder named PreProgrammedPhoneNumberLookup inside it. Of course I will add the folder named Poi with the folders named CustomPOI, and Safety_Cameras_PROM_Provider_1 inside it. I am wondering if running the update with just the GarminDevice.xml, gamsupp.img, gamps.unl, and gmaps.gma will update the Base, Pre programmed, supplemental, and time zone maps automatically? I went through my XML file and put this together to show what is in there.
