If you still have it, could you share the gcd?

If you updated via OTA, I guess, it was deleted afterwards.
You could have a look into the internal storage in folder 'Garmin', if there is any *.gcd file.

Sorry, no gcd file in the Garmin folder. And yes, I updated via OTA.

Currently no changelog is known. Garmin Express shows it, but it's the changelog from older (reverted) 8.40 firmware.

I'd also like to see 8.50 in your collection.

In a German forum, there's a guy who has got 8.50 and offers to share it when somebody gets in contact with him via private message. This is the message in question:

Would you like to contact that guy? I'm currently not registered with that site.
