the problem was i intented to update the firmware, i copy the files to sd card and restart the unit, the unit projected on the screen these lines
ebbot.nb0 found
nboot.bin found
please pop the sdmmc card and reset the unit
and then i restart the unit, but has never started. starts now does nothing, if I connect it to pc just turns the LED battery charge. if I hold down the start button for 30 seconds the pc does not recognize a USB device.
there any way to load the firmware? or is dead and useless?
if anyone has a method to unbrick, pleaseee tell me.

Hi.
I am after some help. I purchase 3 GPS units from dealsextreme same as smartufo posted about in first page
I changed maps from USA to OZ in igo8 on first 2 no problems.When i did 3 unit i left room will files loading and forgot about it.When i came back next morning computer had gone so sleep.I disconnected gps and turn on but it is stuck on first screen with car and windmill.I have tried loading files YFUpdate/yfospa06.img/YFAPP.wzp on to cf card and hard reset however nothing happens.Does this mean i have to do a reg and disk format.

Does any body know how to change the boot image on this device.
The link says CE 5.0 but it is actually CE 6.0 in Chinese and it also has the iphone type navigation menu.
The Rom version is 82F.1930.27M2584A
Software version: V3.6.C127.03.09
OEM Info: YFAtlas4
Platform ID: 5955414E46454E47
Device ID: 0000000000000000
SDCard ID: A9504CD8
Windows CE 6.0. I have tried using Logo82c.bmp and Logo82a4.bmp but these don't work. Can anybody help?
Thanks.
Sorry just figured it out so you can ignore the above. If anybody else is wondering you need to create an image that is 480x272 and 24bit colour and call it Logo82f.bmp and put this on an empty sd card and it should update.

Hi, I have (semi)bricked my GPS device by installing MioPocket. It's SKU 45498
Win CE 6.0
rom version : PF08.2020.29M7588H
SW: V3.6,E60.12.22
OEM:YFAtlas4
resolution 800x480
If someone know where i can download the correct firmware and other files needed to flash my GPS, please give me the links.
EDIT
In post #20 NoService wrote
"on a side note i too have done the same thing with miopocket , it seems to install ok but when you reboot......your stuck on the welcome screen and that's it. the fix is actually in the registry but seeing as you have no reg backup either a firmware flash is the only way to go."
Soon i will have registry backup from the same device,(not bricked), is it possible to use that to unbrick my gps without flashing? ActiveSync connection is working.
EDIT2
Ok, I got the registry backup image from the same gps device created with ceRegistryEditor,should i just use the restore option and restore that image to my device?

Thanks for the reply.
I tried but i am not sure how to restore the image.
I go to Tools>Backup/Restore>Restore image and i get this message "To restore registry image, please go to "Compare->Compare registry" menu or press F3. I press F3, I browse to the backup image, it shows Total different keys 984.When i click on the Apply button it says "Please select something".
In the Select menu there are 2 options, Select All Values and Select All Keys, which one i need to choose?
Select All Keys
NS
The Early Bird May Get The Worm But Its The Second Mouse That Gets The Cheese!
I tried with Select All Keys but after clicking Apply and finishing, the registry keys on the devise are the same,still 984 different keys. I did used the Unlock Registry option,but nothing.
Can someone guide me step by step through the process of restoring the backup image with ceRegistryEditor,I never used this program and the procedure is kinda tricky.English is not my native language, sorry for the grammar.Thanks in advance.
Ok, I have successfully restored my device,I will post later the details, I am too tired, almost 48 hours over the 28 pages of this forum and Google.This is my device
SKU 45498
rom version : PF08.2020.29M7588H
SW: V3.6,E60.12.22
OEM:YFAtlas4
I have NDump bin files from my (new)device
Part00.bin>59.9MB
part01.bin>150MB
Parto03.bin>2MB
and I will upload this files later if someone needs them.Thanks for your help.

Ok, Here is what I've done
1.Installed MioPocket v3,0 -> Bricked My device
2.I was able to boot to the main menu but nothing was working on the device (I later realized that just the touch screen was not working)
3.I did have Working ActiveSync connection
4.After reading the 28 pages of this forum several times and Googling around for 48 hours...
5.I was ready to flash my device with the new firmware i found here on the forum
6.I had a extra new SKU45498 device and got from that one the ceRegistryEditor backup image
7.After looking in the differences in the images from my bricked and my new device i saw this registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH
bricked device registry
new device registry
8. I saw the differences and i thought to myself why not give it a try
9. So I deleted the "DriverName REG_CZ cgrtouch.dll", than soft reset the device an guess what
10.Everything was ok.I just performed another "Restore to Factory Defaults" from the menu, recalibrated the screen and worked like a charm.
11.My ceRegistry backup images are now identical from the bricked and the new GPS device.
I will upload the files later (Part00.bin, Part01.bin, Part03.bin,ceRegistryEditor backup image and ResidentFlash2 partition)

I would suggest you to read all the pages of this forum than find out the exact firmware and software version for your device,than maybe you will have more info, I will try to find something for you because I know how you feel now. Have patience, someone will come out with something, this is the best place for help in our case.
Hi, my gps is rare, no one have it!!! i search on the web and nothing about it, i open it the unique number in the board is 84A-V2 with this number i found something about it but its very dificult find literature of thit gps. i think the only way to unbrick is with jtag conexion, my board has a 13 pins for this purpose. if anyone know where to buy a jtag board, im not sure if jtag is an standard for any electronic devices or there is a jtag especific for that units.
the funny thing is that the firmware i download to the seller's website after I wrote him and replied saying that they dint support the firmware update and make an update i lost the warranty.
thanks for your words, if you found something i'll be very grateful.
