In Action: Garmin Mobile XT
No worries and won’t get lost anymore if you have a GPS unit installed in your car. And now, A Chap Ayam Double Din Car Audio System comes with build-in GPS system already. Not only that, it can plays movie in DVD, Divx format, MP3, CD/DVD and the best part is, it come with TV/radio receiver and build in SD Card plus USB slot. For less than RM1K, this is a complete China Made Car Audio System that you need nowadays.
This car audio system used Windows CE 5.0 as the operating system and once it used Windows, you can play around with it. It’s really cool when you can install multiple GPS system such as Garmin, Papago or even Mapking in the same unit. But for me, I like to use Garmin only compare to Mapking and Papago. The reason is Garmin is very easy to navigate and fast navigation system compare to others.
Installation is very easy!
- First of all you need a 2GB SD card.
- You need the Garmin-20w or Garmin-30w Mobile XT for Windows CE 5.
- Try Garmin-20w first, if not compatible then try Garmin-30w
- Extract the zip file
- By using your PC, copy Garmin folder into the SD Card.
- Slot in the SD card into the Car Audio System
- From the Car Audio System menu, Select GPS Setting, launch [SD-Card]\Garmin\RunGMXT\Garmin.exe
From the above steps….
STOP HERE FIRST….
- Now Jot down the Card ID…
- exit Garmin and Switch Off the car audio system
- Take out the SD-CARD and slot into your PC
- Generate by using the Card ID as the input….
- copy and save the output as sw.unl (using notepad)
- copy sw.unl into the SD-CARD/Garmin folder
- DON’T FORGET TO DOWNLOAD the map first.. please download from http://www.malfreemaps.com or http://www.malsingmaps.com and copy the gmapsupp.img into the garmin folder in your SD-Card
- Once copied… slot your SD-Card back into your car audio system
- Switch on and launch [SD-Card]\Garmin\RunGMXT\Garmin.exe
- If everything is OK, you’ll get the below screen..
Once loaded… you’ll prompted.. click I Agree
You’r done….
Updating the map is also nutty easy…. go to http://www.malfreemaps.com or http://www.malsingmaps.com its free anyway. Copy the gmapsupp.img into the Garmin folder and you’re on the go already…..
For those who have successfully installed in your DD, do please put a remarks in the comment section below.

Sama tak steps nak install garmin mobile xt MW ngan windows CE. Kalu sama, boleh tak gunakan freebasemap dan supportfiles yg sama. Thanks
kheirul
7 August , 2010 at 9:48 pm
Tak sama…
Untuk Windows ce nih tak payah install.. cuma perlu download zip file tu pas tu extract ke folder Garmin.. then generate sw.unl… yang generate sw.unl tu sama aja ngan gmxt….
freebasemap sama.. tapi supportfiles tak sama…
cuba download dari link GARMIN kat posting nih

Salam Kheirul,
Saya dah try byk kali, tapi tak boleh juga unlock garmin tu. Dah generate sw.unl dan copy ke sd card, tapi bila pasang kat player dia tak jumpa gps. Kenapa ye
kheirul
18 August , 2010 at 7:14 pm
kamal… masalah tak jumpa GPS??? saya kurang faham skit….
sw.unl tu untuk unlock garmin aja….
tak jumpa signal gps or tak dapat load GPS software…?

hi, after copying the garmin folder in the sd card and running the garmin.exe file in car stereo. the connect a garmin GPS popped-up, after clicking, it went to “scanning attached” tried to skip and it hanged. do you need to complete the scanning attached or could it be skipped? thanks
kheirul
10 November , 2010 at 10:31 pm
byron…
yes… you can skip it… click NO to skip…
follow from the figure #2….. you no need to “scanning attached” device.. just click NO
Kamal
18 August , 2010 at 10:05 pm
Kheirul,
Masalahnya tak boleh unlock garmin. Signal dapat, sebab sebelum ni guna mapking ok. Sepaturnya bila kita dah copy sw.unl ke dlm garmin folder, bila kita on garmin, menu yang ada trial, lisence dan buy garmin code, tak keluar kan, dia akan terus ke menu yang mana kita boleh select gps device.
kheirul
18 August , 2010 at 10:45 pm
ok.. saya baru paham…
Tools > Settings > About….
ada dua nombor.. satu CARD ID dan satu lagi Unit ID kalau tak silap….
cuba generate guna card id…then copy sw.unl….
kalau card id tak boleh pakai.. guna plak unit id…. harap dapat membantu….

erm..aku rse aku tau masalah ko..
ok, try tgk betol2..file yg di save tu jadi UNL file atau x..
sbb masa nak save kne tekan tulis sw.unl then ko kne tukar jenis file kpd all file..jgn biarkan jenis file tu text
try wat…
kheirul
15 September , 2010 at 9:34 am
betul gaks tu.. kemungkinan file tu dah jadi sw.unl.txt….. so kene make sure file tu sw.unl aja….
betul kata zul…. kene tengok file extension tu betul betul

bro Kheirul, less than RM1K ? betul ke ? where to get ?
Kawan I just beli more than RM1.5K, and another thing different is that dia punya tak tunjuk Arrival Time (bottom right), Garmin di N95 memang ada and your picture juga nampak ada, can he update his Garmin from your web and replace his garmin to correct this problem ?
Ada cara untuk install Papago ?
kheirul
14 December , 2010 at 2:44 pm
saya beli kat kedai Abang(brothers) RM950 aja. upah pasang + wiring + rev cam wiring = RM200 lagi…
kalau nak replace boleh tapi saya syorkan install kat SDcard yang lain.. murah jer sdcard tu RM20 aja….
untuk Papago.. make sure screen resolution double din tu 480×272 dan bukan 480×234 kalau tak screen kene cropped bhg bawah

masalah saye, sd card die bagi..dan haritu die ckp file tu corrupt.tibe2 je.so saye try abng punye…die kuar sampai sonnect to garmin(figure 2) sahaja…agak2 la.model DD saya ni wince 5 kan? harap sgt dapat membantu
kheirul
27 May , 2011 at 4:37 pm
saya pernah cuba install kat DLAA… memang boleh…
lepas “connect to garmin GPS” tu.. click NO.. jangan click yes….
kalau takbleh gaks…. format SDCARD tu.. dan copy balik… dan start dari awal balik…
aizat
27 May , 2011 at 11:06 pm
bro kheirul…dah 2 kali format.
tapi tempoh mase tunggu untuk lepas tekan ‘connect to Garmin’ sangat lame bro..adela lebih 10 minit..last2 saya fadeup, matikan kereta..xkan x muncul2 Yes or NO tu…atau, memang kene tunggu lame eh?
tq bro
kheirul
30 May , 2011 at 12:42 pm
saya dah banyak kali cuba…. dari step 1 ke step 2 tu… masa menunggu paling lama dalam 2 minit aja…. pas tu mesti yes / no tu muncul.. tak pernah plak sampai 10 minit….
workaround yang boleh saya fikirkan adalah… cuba pada sdcard yang lain.. pakai sdcard 2gb or 1 gb aja.. jangan pakai lebih drp 4gb….
aizat
30 May , 2011 at 6:27 pm

kheirul
19 September , 2011 at 6:11 pm
rasernye… sw.unl tak betol tu.. kene generate balik dan pastikan sw.unl… bukan sw.unl.txt
secondly.. masalah tu akan muncul jika map tak unlock… saya syorkan jangan pakai official map dari garmin.. just pakai freemap dari MFM or MSM…….

salam bro,
saya try pakai device id sebab takda card id…dah copy jadik unl file (bukan txt).
tapi bila masuk dalam dubel din tu, dia still pergi ke tmpt nak masuk nombor utk register…
kena pakai card id jugak yer?
Kheirul Mohamed
3 November , 2011 at 10:57 am
Bro… nak tanya:
- adakah sd-card tu 4GB or more? – dinasihatkan pakai 2GB aja.. sbb adakalanya 4GB sdcard ada skit bengong…..
- kalau takde card id.. cuba generate pakai “0″ (buang”" tu.. kosong ye bukan o) then copy balik sw.unl tu ke folder sdcard/garmin
kalau tak membantu gaks.. download Garmin-30w tu dan ulang balik steps-steps dari awal….

tak perlu install wince…

bro,
-DD ada icon gps tp xtau support x gps function.macamana nk tahu support ke x?
-kalau amik sd kad dr DD lain yg dpt gps then mskkan ke DD sy terus bleh function ker?TQ
Kheirul Mohamed
21 January , 2012 at 3:03 pm
tak semua DD support GPS.. ada sesetengah DD yang optional GPS (ie.. kene add on GPS kit baru ok)
ok kalu nak tahu senang aja… KEBIASAANNYA… kat atas dashboard ada satu kotak antana GPS sebesar lebih kurang kotak mancis….
no.2 kalau amik sdcard drp DD yang support GPS… Kalau DD tu support GPS boleh.. tapi kalau DD tu tak support GPS… takboleh….

Kheirul Mohamed
31 January , 2012 at 11:51 pm
Tak semua dd support garmin,
Cuba tengok os (operating system) you punye dd tu…. Adakah ia wince 5? Kalau wince 5, memang boleh dengan syarat dd tuh memang ada build in gps or gps kit dah pasang.
Satu lagi make sure kotak antana pon pasang dan kebiasaannya kotak antana ni dilekatkan kat atas dashboard
