I followed the directions to the Europe maps, but the file MapInstall never appeared on my desktop.  Any suggestions?  I got the N. America maps to work flawlessly.  Thank you so much for putting this online for us!

s43gh3n, i initially had the same problem. i downloaded the torent on my mac, saved it to a flash drive, and then tried to unzip the folder without saving it to my computer. my suggestion is, if you saved the zipped file to something other than ur computers hard drive, save it to the hard drive! and if you have, make sure the file is unzipped before continuing on.

To answer s43gh3n questions, I remember I also ran into this problem the first time trying too install it, I think the fix was just to unzip the file to somewhere on your hard drive.

Lamp Shade, I read that you can just install MapInstall from the garmin (click here) 

You then just follow the same instructions.

Can anybody help me out? I've followed the installation instructions step by step and when I start up Garmin is just says "Scanning Bluetooth" but I cannot get it to connect to the GPS. I know that other members have had this problem. Has anybody come up with a solution yet?

Right now i have a 1 gb sd card, and i want to upgrade to a 4gb card. If i get a new card will i have to redo all these steps with the new card?

Hey are you sure you got the Unit ID code copied correctly, you must get it exactly, ive done this hack to other bj2's and if i wrote down the code or copied it wrong the hack wouldnt work, make sure you copy or unit id from settings–>>about menu, in Garmin Mobile xt, then follow my instructions to copying it to "sw.unl"

You can copy all your old memory card files to your new memory card and should be able to not redo the hack, but you must follow these instructions

  1. Format New memory card
  2. Go to Folder options( on your computer )—>>click "Show hidden files and folder" —–>>also click "hide protected operating system files"
  3. Now go to your old memory card, copy entire memory card (including the faded icons)
  4. Paste into new memory card overwriting everything.

Ive never done this but I have a feeling it should work…if not then you probably need to reinstall the hack.

I really wanted to get this thing to work so I went ahead and did a master reset on my phone, followed the whole process again and it works!

Thanks so much for sharing this.

ye no problem, I always wanted this to and after viewing some other threads around the Internet on how to install it i though dam this looks to hard I dont have the time. I then ran into a nice install guide that restrected whipped up, So I jumped right on it and realized it was so simple,

that's why I knew I needed to share this with more people

i have tried twice to install this. i did a master reset of my phone last night and started over. i am confused, i t looks like it should work, but i cannot get gps location. i have several questions:

-1-sounds stupid but, how do i make sure gps is turned on?

-2-does bluetooth have to be enabled?

-3-in the instructions, #2 says: "Open the installation folder, the folder where you installed the
    program 1 minute ago, and open the folder "MapSource" within that.
    Create a shortcut of the file "MapSource.exe" in your desktop."

    does that mean copy to desktop or to the device thru active sync?

i have more questions, but i will let these be answered first. sorry to be such a tard on this, but i like free stuff. and i've pulled out my hair on the left side of my head. thanks in advance.

Hey Krenzzblkjk2

to answer yor questions

1. GPS will be enabled automatically once the programs wants to start running it and will be closed after the program stops using it

2. No Bluetooth does not have to be enabled, bluetooth has nothing to do with the GPS. Make sure when you get your Unit ID (CARD ID from your phones garmin–settings—>about menu), make sure you copied it correctly, as this is what unlocks the program.

3. #2 is the install is referring to your computer desktop "Not" your phone.

Please feel free to ask as many questions as you would like.

thanks pukka, i have followed the instructions as close as i understand themFoot in mouth, and feel good about performing them correctly. i have gone through once again with the master reset, i have not moved past #16 on the instructions because i still show scanning bluetooth, not the "bars" icon in the left corner. i was explicate in copying the card i.d. to the keygen.

modaco gps hack turns gps on automatically, can i turn the gps on/off some way, or see if it is even enabled? all the maps are on my bj2, just cant get gps location. it must be something simple, or i have a bad phoneYell(gps-wise).

i have most the other hacks, which are fantastic by the way, from this site installed and working fine. thanks for your help. Laughing

Hey Krenzzblkjk2

I know for fact it has something to do with the card id/unit id, or the keygen copying, you dont have to compelty restart the whole process, just go back and go to your card id, copy it down, paste it in the right keygen location, push generate, copy that to the correct file, save the file elsewhere (on desktop). Now do the same with the 325 generation, save that file ( Desktop), copy both files that you just created to your phone sd card in the garmin folder, restart the phone and now if done correctly you should see the "scanning bluetooth message"
