How To Properly Delete TopoActive and Free 8GB of Internal Memory

Unread post by Firefishe »

So I just bought a New 32x. I want to get rid of TopiActive and replace it with some custom maps from another source I’ve used for years.

How do I safely remove TopoActive? What .IMG files do I copy, and any additional files before deleting?

Please visit GPSrChive > eTrex x2x > Software or GPSrChive > How To... > Software and look for the JaVaWa IMGInfo software link.

Connect your Garmin GPSr to your computer, navigate to the [GPSr]/Garmin/ and [microSD]/Garmin/ directories, then drag each *.img file to the IMGInfo window to view specific details for each.

When you find the TopoActive maps, either delete them, or move them to your HDD in case you want to use them again in the future.

I downloaded the JaVaWa software, and I'm pleased as punch with it. Works fine, even if it's not actively developed, anymore. Works fine.
