I updated my 6X via Express and it updated the maps, it took hours. After that the map looked strange, all roads, small and major, are the same grey. The map is functional, navigation works. It is hard to use in urban areas though.
In desperation I deleted all files from the watch including the maps, did a reset to factory defaults and synced with Express again. Only a map "Eastern Europe" was listed. I think my Fenix 7 had a "Western Europe" map and my Forerunner has "Europe".
Could it be that I am outside of the region offering most detail in the Eastern Europe map? What is covered by it in full detail?
And why would this map region be installed, the watch is from Garmin Netherlands.
I know better, but did not make a full backup before I updated with Express. I tried all map themes and levels of detail to no avail.
Is there any way to get the original colorful map back?
