But yes, here is the url

That's exactly what I needed.

I unlocked the Europe map using FastActivate and it works fine.

Thank you very much.

All links are OK.

Your links are OK, but Linksave.in is not responding for some time . . .

Sorry. Correcting a typo I made a double post.

And by now, 10:31, Linksave.in is up again.

LINKS ARE DOWN could you re up them please

LINKS ARE DOWN could you re up them please

Thats the answer

Your links are OK, but Linksave.in is not responding for some time . . .

Europe is a little too big ??
Cordialement.

To Maury22,
i installed Europe West on my V719_3g tablet and guess what ?? No Germany,no Austria.
I know,there is difference between Europe West and Western Europe.
If you look at the Europe West download,you will see what i mean.But Europe South has
Germany and Austria,among others.
Cordialement.

hi,

I've downloaded/installed Benelux, and working as expected. But it seems that radar info is not included (or is it).
I do have pretty recent speedcam info for my TT one; can I use it for this version as well, and how to activate it then?

ps: I'm pretty new in smartphone world, and had some minor problems getting it installed om my samsung Galaxy Flame. so for the newbies, hereby my experience:

when connecting my phone via usb to the pc, it failed to install the MTP USB driver. Tried several 'fixes" found in forums, but gave up after about an hour (something to do for later).
So, here is what I did:

1. Extract to temp folder
2. Copy folder "tomtom" onto your Android device.
(either use USB PC connection - FAILED in my case -, so copied to my microSDHC)
I then used the 'My Files' apps to move the folder contents to a 'TomTom' folder, which I had created earlier...
3. Install using included [.apk] application
(copy this file in [\Downloaded] on the smartphone - from my microSDHC using 'My Files' -, then double-click to install)
note: you must enable installment of non-Google Store apps
disable this feature once apps is installed and tested! (t.i. if you care about this feature)
(see: Settings - Security - Apps Mgmt ~ Unknown Sources 'enabled')
4. Disconnect from any internet
(I had Wifi disabled at the time)
5. Open Tomtom application, then close...

ps2: some of the 'keywords' are my translations since my working language is Dutch
(so, not sure it corresponds with the actual english vs, but you'll get the idea)

Following the instructions, Tomtom Western Europe still does'nt start on my Samsung Galaxy S.
Anybody has an idea? Thanks in advance for any help!

If you have a Samsung android phone and don't have kies installed (don't bother, it's rubbish) you need to find and install the "Samsung usb drivers"
There are drivers available from Windows update but they don't work.

@Fatboyfun: thx for the tip, saved me a lot of time for sure: downloaded the drivers from the samsung site, et voilà!

Adding Speedcams as POI on TomTom Android... with Sound Alarm?!

It is quite possible to add Speedcams to your TT on Android phone. Showing the icons is no problem, but activating alarm/sound seems a bit more tricky.

Hereby my experiences; info found on several forums.
credits to:
@rodrisilva: "How to install customized speedcams in Tomtom android 1.1 activating visual and sound alert."
@rusigor: "speed cams for tomtom android" (install instructions found in his Zippyshare file)
@admin: "Handleiding installatie speedcams voor Android" (dutch doc)
@Downunder35m: "Tutorial on how to get the speedcams for TT working properly"
@meijer~worldofnavigation (you need to register)

you'll find these installation procedures by just googling it. At first, I was not able to get the alarm/audio working.
But @meijer gave me the final solution!

Some important remarks before you start:
1. you can use ONLY non-licensed ov2/POI files; original TT files will not work! (icons will not show on your map at all)
So you'll need to get these from sites such as SCDB or POIplaza...
(simplest way is to use the 'world'-files from @Downunder35m; he promised to update them regularly
2. you need a 'dedicated' APK file (related directly to the accompanying map). Iow: if it is not map-specific, sound/alarm will not work?!
3. if you do not have an "original" [default.ver] and [default.ov2], then download @rusigor's files, and use the ones found in folder [01]
(take any of the .ov2 and .ver set files , and have them renamed to 'default.xxx')
4. although you can enter multiple 'references' in the [default.ver] file - and they will show as well; tested - there is a chance that those will not work with sound/alarm (since the final 'default'-files are actually copies ~ not tested)
If you can get it working with 1 file, then you can easily get it done with "more files"
use [copy /b *.ov2 Speedcam.ov2 /b] to combine all of them into 1 speedcam file
(tested and working; you are - after all - working with non-licensed/uncrypted files)
5. there is also ample discussion about the format of the ogg- and bmp-files. as for the bmp-files, anything suggested
on those forum will work (if you want to be sure, get one of these: "GerryC's Speed Camera Icons")
as for the ogg-file: I've tested with several of them, provided either on those forums, or from "working sets"
(they differ in frequency (11xxx-22xxxhz - mono), quality, and more; but they did not make any difference)

Installation procedure (following @Downunder35m steps):
a. start with a fresh installation (check @Downunder35m for details/suggestions)
so, uninstall TT and remove the map folder (do nothing else yet...)
b. remove your SIM card from your phone, AND disable the GPS function!
(thanks to @meijer)
c. copy your map to your phone, then - if you do NOT have the 2 'default'-files - copy [default.ver] and [default.ov2] in your map as well
also, remove [DeletedPoi.local] and [MapUserPatch.dat] from your map folder (they shouldn't be there normally)
btw: if it did not work the 1st time, just copy/overwrite the existing 'default' files with the ones from @rusigor anyway!
d. install TT, then launch the application. When asked to activate the GPS, select NO (very important, apparently)!!!
do some minor 'settings' adjustments: I did the '10sec' on/off and 'Data services 'on/off' as suggested by @rodrisilva (making sure they were both OFF)
quit TT.
e. now copy the 1st set of files [Safety_cams_World.xxx] to your map folder
start TT, but leave GPS OFF. you can try a demo route (I didn't do it as it tried to get a GPS signal)
so quit TT again.
f. copy the 2nd set of files (ie: 'default'-files) to your map folder (indeed, overwriting existing files)
g. start TT and now activate your GPS signal
you should now see your speedcam icons AND have sound/alert showing on your map
try simply with a demo route.

notes:
* if you do not see icons, enable them via 'settings-show POIs' (you shouldn't need to, btw)
* icons and sound can now easily be changed; if you want different ones
* important update: if you change the ogg-file, make sure you also change the 'other' appropriate ogg-file(s) as well. Iow: ogg-files must be exact copies too, or you will not hear a sound alarm! (changed it this weekend, but forgot to 'update' the default.ogg as well)
ps: please feedback if you have additional finetuning details...
