Has anyone purchased the Navteq map upgrade? I am wondering if this is similar for the Junction Views.

I recently updated my 430N with Garmin City Navigator 2014.10 NT Americas. I also added the large junction view file. I am not sure if this junction view is the same as would be included with the standard map update. It has a TON of junction views now:









It even shows the Toll lanes! :thumb:

Does this appear the same as the Navteq update?

I downloaded the Garmin files myself and and loaded them from a thumb drive. This is not the Navteq update. It does have all of the updated roads and new POIs. There are a LOT more junction views. I am wondering how it compares to the update disc from Navteq (Jeep).

Thinking about loading he 2014.40 release...may not be worth it for now.

I used the Jet mouse to get the key Generator and the Protected Garmin file toolkit to get the FID number. Generated a few serial numbers. Second one I tried worked. Map is updated! Junction views not. I will try again but am happy with my result. Thanks for the tips:)

I did get the 2013.30 update to work but 2014.20 didn't. Playing around with this I noticed if a formatted the thumb each time it seemed to make a difference. I'm a tech guy, I'll figure this out and post results. Does anyone have instructions from Garmin on how to install the additions? I'll find something.

First things first, here's what I'm working with:
2012 Wrangler COD MW3 with 430N RHB
Sandisk Extreme 16GB Thumb Drive

Alright here's the deal, first get you a good fast thumb drive. The reason I tell you this, is it's pure torture to sit and wait for a slow one. Here's my results:

Installing 2013.30 - Successful
Installing 2013.40 - Successful
Installing 2014.10 - Successful
Installing 2014.20 - Failed

Okay as far as additions go, I installed high res junctions only successfully once. here's how I did it:

1.) Format thumb drive to FAT32
2.) Create folder named "Garmin"
3.) Copy gmapsupp.img into Garmin folder
4.) Rename gmapsupp.img to gmapprom.img (lower case and yes it matters)
5.) In Garmin create a folder called "JCV"
6.) Copy D3060110A.JCV into JCV folder

This worked for me using the 2014.10 IMG File and the 2014.20 Additions JCV file. Doing both at once was the only way to get the junctions to install for me.

I'm going to figure out how we create these IMG files. I suspect that's why I can't get 2014.20 working.

I've followed your steps carefully and even tried it on both OS platforms (Windows 7 + Mac OS X 10.8.4) and yet no luck. Did you use one of those "unlocked .img files" out there in the underground wilderness of the internet?

I'm using 2014.10 and D3060110A.JCV . Working with a RHB MYGIG unit 430N from a 2014 Jeep. See attached photos.

I've read you will continue to work in this next week. :Thanx: Thank you very much for your time and effort and for sharing this with us. Whenever I succeed updating my unit I will promise to help out the rest by doing a tutorial with visual aid.

I am highly interested in this thread as well. So far, I am not having much luck doing mine. I don't have a DVD with the required code. The ones I generate are no good. The version of JetMouse I found is a bit out of date.

There's a couple of reasons why I'm working on this. I had a couple of Garmin handheld GPS units and you can do so much more with them like adding 3D buildings, Hi-Res Junctions, adding vehicle icons, etc etc. I know that the in dash units should be able to do the same. It has always baffled me why Garmin doesn't have instructions on how to load new maps like topo, etc. They sell them for $100 and could make money off of all of us Jeep owners but they have no procedures or instructions how to load additional maps, etc. I know from a lot of experience with their handheld units that it's possible and I'm figuring out that the in dash have the same capability I just have to figure out how. That's my motivation. Will spend more time next week figuring this out. The dealership of course won't help at all, I asked them about it and they told me to call Jeep. When I called Jeep they told me to go to the dealership. If you want it done right just do it yourself.

Thuddome, You may consider calling Garmin, i have called them in the past about my handhelds and they were very responsive.

Fuzzy.

Success on the upgrade after a some trial and error. Loaded 2014.10.

Does anyone know how to add voices?

Still not successful on the JCV files, yet. That Is most likely a mismatch on versions I suspect that I am using.

Update - Working on this, interesting conversations I had with both Garmin and Navteq. Here's what I learned:

1.) Navteq said - Chrysler sets the price for the map updates and agreed with me it was too much.

2.) Garmin said and Navteq confirmed - All maps, junction views, 3d views, etc are created and maintained by Navteq.

3.) Garmin said - They get all their maps from Navteq.

3.) Navteq said - For the 430N there was a map update in 11/2012 and there's another coming in 11/2013. The maps coming in November will be the 2014 maps. So if you are thinking of buying, wait till then. She could not tell me what would be included, i.e. junctions, etc. And here's why

4.) Navteq is changing it's data source. They are now combining Navteq and Nokia maps to be called here.com. She said everything was about to change. Data style/structure and features. She did assure me that the 11/2013 update would include all the new data.

5.) Garmin said - At this time there is no plan to get Topo working on what he called "OEM" or in dash units. He said Topo was a completely different map than city navigator and right now he said he didn't think it would work at all on the 430N.

Every time I've tried to load 3D buildings I get a window that says "Your device is not compatible"

More to come, stay tuned...

$149.00 right now, not sure if that is changing. The reason I complained about it is any handheld from Garmin you can update for life for a one-time fee of usually less than that. To charge $150 a year is absurd.

I haven't come to a conclusion about the 3D Maps yet. Still playing around...
