Bricked GPSMAP 65s
Posted: Sun May 09, 2021 4:35 am
I think I might have bricked my GPSMAP 65s yesterday. It seems that the filesystem got corrupted after duplicating a file with the Files APP on my my iPad Pro (iPad Pro 12.9 connected with USB-C to USB-mini cable to GPSMAP GPSMAP 65s).
It passes the “loading waypoints, traicks, points etc..” step during the bootsequence but it hangs on step “loading maps…”
I tried:
- Having patience and waiting quite a long time to see if it passes this step
- Pressing the Page+Enter buttons during boot, to no avail
- Pressing the DPAD-Up or DPAD-Up during boot, does not go in mass storage mode and the GPSMAP does not show up in the finder as usually
- Different USB-mini cables
Anyone suggestions before sending it in to Garmin?
Thanks in advace, Richard
