Magellan 2008/2009 Map Data

Magellan Roadmate 1412 2008/2009 Map Data + 6 million POI file This is a backup from a 1412 Roadmate with Revision 31 2008/2009 Maps. This should work with many other Roadmate units. Just backup the old files to your system first and copy these into their place. On the Maestro 3225 its on the TFAT partition, on the Roadmate it maps a separate Removeable Disk drive letter to store the map files.

BTW ignore the zip filename, it contains both the US 48 2008/09 Map file and the 2008/09 POI file inside the zip.

will this map work to update a maestro 4050?

stellarfungk (2008-10-23)

i updated my magellan 4050 with the new map files, but now when i visit a poi it only lists street number, but not the street name.

stellarfungk (2008-10-23)

also the satellite signal keeps dropping, any suggestions?

stellarfungk (2008-10-23)

DO NOT use these files on Maestro Series!!

SamNC (2008-10-25)

The stock 2008/2009 map has 2 DVDs for the Maestro series. If I don't remember wrongly, one DVD for 3100 series and one DVD for 4000 series. I did not buy that DVD for my Maestro. Even the address enter into 3100 series and backup into an SD card will not be able to restore to 4000 series. I doubt this map will work on other series or even other models other than a Roadmate 1412 without a hack.

SamNC (2008-10-27)

I downloaded it and tried it on my firend's 3100, 3140, 4000 and 4250, non of them worked. No need to waste time with this one.

acanan1 (2008-10-27)

any one know where you can get download the 2nd disk for the 4000 series

stellarfungk (2008-10-30)

acancan1, if you find disk 2, please let me know. i'd like to have it as well.

Q: Why are there 2 DVDs in the Magellan 2008/2009 Map Update for the Maestro series?
#
A: DVD 1 is for Maestro series models 3200, 3210 3220, 3225, 3250, 4200, 4210, 4220, and 4250.
DVD 2 is for Maestro series models 3100, 3140, 4000, 4040, and 4050.

speeddbuggy (2008-11-07)

these 2 files are to big for the 3100 do you have the dvd files for the 3100 that you could upload ?

infernovideo (2008-11-10)

Hi, does anyone have the Magellan Maestro North American version of this update to seed. thanks

Vinton33 (2008-11-12)

I'm looking for the 2008-2009 complete upgrade USA/Canada map for the magellan 3225" I'm new to this so what is the best way to do it?
Thanks

krafty9 (2008-11-22)

Has anyone gotten this to work correctly? If so what model?

jashfa93 (2008-11-22)

This worked fine on my Magellan maestro 3225
just copied over files
im not sure if it actually changed anything though
i already had the 6mil poi and i cant find any other changes

Fillupwithsnow (2008-12-01)

Hi will this work the the 4250

gold3nman (2008-12-03)

This worked on my Maestro 3250. But I do recommend copying your old files to your computer first.

keithbizzle (2008-12-04)

Worked on my 3225! Just copy the two files over the old ones (they have the same extension) and that's it! As mentioned before copying the originals to the hard drive is recommended.
Also, for some reason on this model (not sure about the others) when I did the update I can only locate "Points of Interests" using only "current position" or by entering an exact address.

FlippyJeez (2008-12-04)

It worked on my Maestro 4250! My Detailed map NavStreets version is now 31!
I also updated my POI file with the newer one. The old POI file was 193kb and the new one is 262kb.

FlippyJeez (2008-12-04)

Just an update on my 4250. The US48.imi file updated the "Detailed map NavStreets version" to 31, but the "Basemap NavStreet Version" is still 29. I don't know how that will affect anything. But from what I've read around, both needs to be the same version :(
The US48_POI.poi file does not work with my 4250. When I replaced the original file, every time I go look for a POI, it asks for the map file from an SD card. So I just reinstalled the original POI file and it works fine now.

FlippyJeez (2008-12-05)

Aaaaaaannnnd NOPE! It doesn't work with the 4250. Took it out for a spin last night. I guess I now know the affect of updating the Detailed map and not the Basemap. Navigation does no work, LOL!

p0o0o0h (2008-12-06)

worked fine on a magellan 4250. Had updated firmware to 4.6 before replacing the .imi map file.

krafty9 (2008-12-11)

Windows does not recognize the device (4210). Any suggestions?

rabbler (2008-12-17)

Map file wouldn't work on my 3225 but the POI file seems ok

areamike (2008-12-18)

These files worked with my Magellan 4250. It took a couple of times trying. I had to delete the files from the GPS, then paste the new ones after backing the old ones up. READ the instruction file included. Pretty simple.

zarqy (2008-12-28)

this is ONLY the US48_POI.poi and us48.imi files. Does anyone have the 2009 canada_POI.poi and canada.imi files? Would be greatly appreciated!!!

gb__ (2009-01-01)

i echo the others. when you upgraded the maps i'm sure canada was updated as well? can someone please post the canada.imi and poi files? are there basemap updates? please? we're counting on you, brianlewis

tekchef (2009-01-03)

areamike,
I have a 4250 and would like to know how you got the maps install. could you tell me how you managed this?
thanks

richardestrella (2009-01-03)

How I do backup on my magellan 4250 to install the new update map 2008/2009

systemhost (2009-01-04)

Yeah, I tried this a few days ago on my 4250... didn't work right at all... The map data was too messed up... I'm guessing it's just not compatable with these units... it's a shame too, I can't find any updated maps for Magellan anywhere!

sheelu (2009-01-04)

Thanks brianlewis
Works on my Maestro 3225...but for some reason when searching for POI...'Near Which City' button is disabled...

gck105 (2009-01-08)

Wouldn't work with my Maestro 4250. I upgraded my firmware first. The map seems to work, but when I go to the POIs, it says I need to enter a SD card. The unit seems to boot up slower now too.

R3ACT0R2 (2009-01-11)

What software is everyone using to connect to their maestro units? I have a maestro 4250 but vantagepoint does not recognize it.
Thanks.

gck105 (2009-01-12)

Just plug in the USB and you can veiw the files in Windows. GPS shows up as a removable drive.

sabbath12 (2009-02-01)

Anybody have backup files for a maestro 4040? Mine got deleted now GPS dead.

treywaters (2009-02-21)

Attempted on Maestro 4000 (before reading comments saying don't).
It does load, as other Maestro users have noted, but things seemed screwy. I can scroll the map, and see some streets that have been added since the previous map version.
However:
- Oddities when trying to route to an address. Some streets are missing all street numbers. Sometimes I get "that location is not in your database" message (or something like that).
- When viewing POI info, only street address showed.
Reverted back to my original map file, kept the POI included here, and POIs seem to be OK now. So, at least I've gotten an updated POI list!

achance007 (2009-03-08)

tried it out on the mastero 3200, and you need to store the maps on a SD card. I googled and found a how to.
Move the Map Files to a SD Card
1. Buy a 2 GB or maybe bigger SD card. The Magellan documentation is not specific on the maximum size that the 3100 can handle or if the card has to be formatted before it is put into the 3100. Anyway, I am using a 2 GB SD card that I had formatted as FAT. (The ?Backup? command saves some of the files from the F:\USR subdirectory into a subdirectory, ?\backup?, on the SD card.)
2. Turn on the 3100 and connect it to the computer using the USB cable.
3. Now, the 3100 shows up as two flash drives. On mine the F drive was the same as before and the SD card showed up as the G drive.
4. Make a subdirectory called ?MAP? on the G drive (the SD card).
5. Copy all of the files form the F drive (the 3100?s main flash drive) to the MAP subdirectory on the SD card. There should be four (4) files:
a. Index.mct
b. NRBM_NA.MGI
c. US48.IMI
d. US48_POI.POI
The main map file, US48.IMI, is 906 MB all by itself.
6. Copy F:\APP\Media.cfg to Media.cfg.org or something similar to make a good backup copy.
7. Using your favorite editor, modify the Media.cfg file. Change the text that has ?\HDD\MAP? to ?\SDMMC Card\MAP? in three (3) locations. Note the space between SDMMC and Card. In this document I have put in a non-breaking space, so copy and past may not work. I have put a copy of my modified Media.cfg file here (right click and save):


8. Disconnect the 3100. The device should soft reset automatically.
9. Verify that the 3100 is functioning correctly. You may have to use the paper clip to reset.
10. Turn the 3100 off. Remove the SD memory card. Power the 3100 back on. A popup error should say ?Map Initialization Status: Please insert SD Card with map?.
11. Turn the 3100 off. Inset the SD card and power the 3100 back on.
12. Verify that your 3100 is functioning correctly.

You could modify the Media.cfg file so that you leave the map on the main drive and just put the POI on the SD card. Then if you started the 3100 without the SD card, it may be able to do the mapping and just fail when trying to do POI stuff. I have not had time to check out this configuration.

Utilizing this method one should be able to replace the map with a different or bigger map. At this point, one could delete the files in the original MAP subdirectory in order to free up a lot of space; however I have left mine there and will show you how to switch between the map and POI file on the SD card and the original files. But first, I will show how one can replace the POI file with a larger one.

robbyhuntt (2009-03-22)

This map is only 48 US states. Not including Canada.

madcow043 (2009-03-24)

will this work on a Magellan Maestro 3250 ? and does it include Canadian maps

garpoonga (2009-03-29)

Has anyone figured out why the near which city button is greyed out on the 3225 yet ? And how to fix it ? Otherwise this update works fine on my unit.

cm718ny (2009-04-20)

I've got the 4250 and it works PERFECTLY! Just replace the old files with the new ones here....ITS THAT SIMPLE......DONT FORGET TO UPDATE YOUR FIRMWARE .....ITS IDIOT-PROOF!!!

pough (2009-05-29)

navrano1 (2009-06-11)
