OK thank you very much.  I guess we can consider this matter closed, until further developments develop!

I am new to Oruxmaps and also this forum.  I couldn't find anything in a search to answer this, so...



Since I own a Garmin GPS which I have several unlocked maps for, can I copy a gmapsupp.img or a gmapprom.img file to my Android table which is running Oruxmaps?

I read somewhere that you could so by creating a Garmin folder in oruxmaps/mapfiles and copy the.img file to there.  So I did that part.

Then it went on to say that in Orux, under the Maps menu, choose Switch Map and then select "gmapsupp".  I did that also.

However the display is white with no visible map.  Does anyone know if that info was incorrect, or did I miss a step or do something wrong?



I also read that a "raw" Garmin unlocked map is not readable by Orux.  So i am guess if the first part is not working then this second "theory" is probably correct?  Can MapSource be used to create a map from the Garmin map that is usable in Orux?



Thnx
