English ln3 language file

Does anybody have an english.ln3 file available that they can share?  I'm hoping it might be under the \GARMIN\TEXT folder on a version of the Instinct that does not use english as the "native" language? My fallback is to use Google translate on the French file and then tidy it up, but obviously the "standard/official" english.ln3 would be preferable.

  • Normally you do not need the english.ln3 file, since the watch will use the default hard-wired texts, which are English, when it does not find the ln3 file for the selected language. Personally, I cleared the folder //GARMIN/Text/ completely, not leaving any file in it at all, and my watch still works fine, showing all in English.

  • Yes you are right of course, the english ln3 file is not required for "normal" use as it is baked into the firmware.  I am looking for the file so I can use it to build a set of customised language files (based on the standard english file) for use in some specific recurring scenarios, e.g. customised sets of alarm labels, or some customised data field labels for certain activities/screens.

    Nothing mind-blowing, or critical in any way, just looking to squeeze a little more out of the watch.
