hello there.
I bought from the USA at auction and shipped to Lithuania (Europe) in 2015 Town and Country.
currently software version 51.00.09, RHB15 version 5.11 - already updated to 7.09, GPS 4.15.06 and installed US maps. is it possible to install the latest new maps for the East or the whole of Europe? I found the maps here: View forum - New Maps but trying to install fails. Thanks for the help.

Answers:
1. I got the firmware from these two places:
Download Now | MyGig RHB 50.01.01 Software Update

https://www.mydrive.ch/browse#/24857915/MyGIG 430N - RHB Garmin
Username: mygig@soxag
Password: gasolio

2. Did not need serial for the Map.

3. I haven't tested the junction view. Even if it doesn't work, I am still happy without junction view since the map has new roads and info.

The only thing I lost in the process was the Jeep Default picture on the screen with green background (black now) and Sat Channel Logos/Artworks are gone too. I am working on that.

Can't upgrade Garmin software from 3.0 - 430N 2011
Hello friends,
I am unable to update the Garmin software on a 2011 RHB 430N after version 3.00 to attempt a map update. It was originally on version 23.02.01 and Garmin Software 2.30, I updated it to 3.00 with 33.01.23. When I updated to 50.00.07 it did not update the Garmin software, only the radio software. Then I tried with 50.01.01, same result, then I tried only with gupdate.gcd from Garmin version 5.11, same result, it always gives the message "PND did not update". Then with 5.19, same message.
No matter what file you use, I always get the same PND did not update message, and it's impossible to get past Garmin version 3.00.
I have completely wiped the memory from the Nonvol Memory from the hidden menu and nothing.
I understand that the 2011-2012 versions are different from the following, but it is impossible and I do not understand why I cannot update it.
Could someone give me an idea of possible problem and solution?
Thank you very much to all!

I am also unable to update Nav software RHB 2011. Already 3.0 installed but i am can confirm that V5.11 not working... If anybody know the highest Map Version which i am able to use with 3.0 Garmin software version ?

it looks like you can't upgrade by simple upload new files. rhb model can be remaked, but for about 250euro.

Do I understand correctly that you are doing remake?
What does the remake include? Will other maps be loaded? Will Cyrillic be displayed? Will it be possible to update maps on my own?

Thank You All: :Thanx:First, I want to thank all of you for sharing information and helping each those in need. Now I feel that I have to return the favor and contribute.


Little History: I read almost everything here on how to upgrade the Map on 430N RHB from 2014 to City Navigator North America 2018.20 on this forum.
I upgraded, down graded the firmware versions of the unit and tried loading the map upgrade (GMAPPROM.IMG with the JCV folder and tried loading GMAPSUPP.IMG and JVC folder via DVD and various USBs, you name it and I did it with no success. Obviously, what I was doing was doing wrong combination or missing something important. After trying and trying your suggestion, I was successful at the end.

AT Last SUCCESS was acheived!!! :winner::beerdrinking::beerme:
Here is what I did to make this work. Download or open the PDF file below which has the complete guide and screen shots of every step of the process of map upgrade.

Don't Give Up...c-ouch:

Any chance you remember the navigation software version of your Jeep? Navigation > Settings > System > About should report the software version.

You can upgrade but not simply by uploading new maps the standard way but it is doable by yourself.
I'm using CN Europe 2024.20 NTU right now on RHB17 with garmin version 7.09

You can update RHB (430N) to any version of Garmin maps.
Not only to US (NA maps) but also EU, Africa and other regions.

I was able to install there CN EU 2026.20 with working JCV.
All you need is to have some Garmin maps on your HDD - buyed or free downloaded.

Hello friends!
I have read all this and other threads and other forums, I can say that I have learned quite a lot about the RHB system.

I have a 2011 Avenger with RHB430N with OEM CN North America 2014 maps and I want to install South America 2020 maps.
I have done everything, upgrades, downgrades from version 33.02.01 to 50.01.01 and tested with gmapprom and gmapsupp maps.

I started testing with fw 33 and gmapprom and then gmapsupp and nothing ...
Then the update to 50.xx with a USB stick without problems, then the unit did't take the downgrades so I burn CDs with firmware 33 and 50.
What happened is that I was never able to install the new maps, so I made the decision to edit the gupdate.gcd of version 50.01.01 with RGN Tool, adding to the pk_files_6605.zip the "gmapprom.img" map of only 2 countries in South America (270mb), and adding it to the gupdate.gcd again. The firmware of the unit was updated to 50.xx but pressing NAV the LOAD ... LOADING screen apeared without progressing.
I decided to install 33.xx in dealer mode and it was resolved, I was able to get into Garmin navigation again.

So I did a new update procedure to 50.xx again with a "gmapsupp.img" map in the gupdate.gcd...the unit firmware was updated fine but pressing NAV left LOADING message without changes along minutes...
-I decided again to downgrade to 33 with the CD, the unit's firmware went back again but the Garmin nav did't change..."LOADING...LOADER" message;
-I did the same with fw 50.xx and nothing (always the Garmin Loading screen)
-I tried with an USB flash drive in fat32, with the Garmin/gupdate.gcd folder (original 5.11 version) and it doesn't repair it;
-I tried with an USB stick with gupdate.gcd 5.19 and nothing
-I tried a USB stick with gupdate.gcd 7.11 and nothing

I want to remember that now when trying to force the installation from Dealer Mode with the 33 or 50 CDs do not respond, the "PND did not install" automatically appears after a few seconds ... and when I insert the firmwares directly on the radio (without entering dealer mode) they goes fine but nothing changes on Garmin sat nav, so I estimate that it modifies unit system logs but does not modify Garmin logs.

Another fact is that when entering Dealer Mode and entering GPS Info the lines are displayed without any information ...

Tomorrow I will try to burn the 5.11 Garmin/gupdate.gcd on a CD and see if I can repair and exit the LOADER screen ... but honestly I don't know what else to do.

If I press the PND> 8.3 Restore Factory Defaults button, then the OK button...it doesn't do anything else, it doesn't restart the system, nothing ... (maybe it simply do that ... I don't know if the Restore does a longer procedure or it just ends there).

I honestly have no way to get out of LOADER LOADING ...

Any ideas?
Thank you!!!

The maps you uploaded with patched gupdate.gcd were probably messing the loading.
To revert it to life you would need to remove those maps from the flash memory file system.

Those Garmin early boards can't be updated past v. 3.00.
But any maps can be loaded there, even 2026.
