Hi,

Anyone try performing the update and not performing the "Master Clear"?

Cheers,
Julius.

I plugged the device in and mounted the drive. There was already a Garmin folder on the _internal_ SD card so I renamed it to Garmin.old. Then I copied the Garmin folder from the unzipped download into the _internal_ SD Card (next to the Garmin.old) in the top level / root of the SD card. After this I unmounted / ejected and the device found the update.

Sorry to sound stupid... top level/root of the SD where is that
I copied to the SD card like a file transfer.
It picks up the update goes thru the process but when the garmin asus name with a 3 section bar underneath it comes up it hangs on the first section

How long did the update take you

Oh it sounds like it's all working perfectly - except for the hanging. (BTW - by root I meant the top most directory on the SD Card)

It took about 5 - 10 minutes I think... If it's not finishing after 10 minutes I would try a reboot and try again - not very scientific option... :)

Hey Julius

Just read your previos posts again
You say there was a Garmin folder there already
Did you put the downloaded folder onto the removable SD card on on to the internal storage
