Go 730 - need help

nuca1960 wrote:I did everything according to your instructions, but no help.
I am now very confused and do not know anymore what is right and what is wrong.
Is it possible to do this and that works?
I am very grateful to the help provided so far, but if you have a patient may have to begin from scratch and to find errors.
Thank you in advance!

Certainly it will work. I have no problem with starting over. It won't be the first or last time. Take your unit back to a working set up, & we will go from there. I only have two requests. Don't try anything on your own & follow my instructions only.

I am returning my tomtom last setting that worked normally before all these recent attempts to upgrade the map.
Now I am ready and waiting for your instructions with respect to the requirements of your last post.

Here are details about my tomtom from ttgo.bif file

DeviceName=TomTom GO 730
DeviceVersionHW=GO 730
BootLoaderVersion=55120
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=8351
ApplicationVersion=9982
CurrentMap=Western_and_Central_Europe_2GB
CurrentMapVersion=800.1764

Connect GPS to PC


remove current MAP folder from GPS



Put your new MAP folder in your GPS



grab this META.txt file --> [Please Register or Login to download file]


put it in KEYGEN 4.1D's folder (overwrite file when asked)



then run tomtom4.exe


on the main menu, select PATCH SYSTEM



now click on PATCH SYSTEM



then click on this arrow to go back to the main menu



click on MAKE MAP KEYS



then MAKE DCTs



and ignore truck map error if any...


Disconnect GPS from PC


EnJoY!!!

Thanks to the post, will try it, but now I'm waiting on "tendriver" post because I promised him that I would not do anything without him.
I have to see what new maps to use, I have to start from scratch!

your the boss, but if anything goes wrong again,

place your backup in again just like u did now :P

Can you tell which card to use I downloaded "Western_and_Central_Europe_2GB_850_2820" and "Western_Central_Europe_2GB_850.2801" but now no longer know which to use. Perhaps a third?
Do you have any suggestions?

Western_Central_Europe_2GB_850.2801

but if you want really want iQroutes + ALG,

for now, you have to get map Western_Central_Europe_2GB_845.2645

1. You didn't honor my request.
2. you got the above message because you tried to patch the ttsystem file, which you should not do. You have a PRE-PATCHED ttsystem file.

I'm still waiting for you, this thing I tried in the meantime.

Maybe I should download the map first if you think it right for my tomom.
(Qroutes + ALG, Western_Central_Europe_2GB_845.2645) but which of them? I would like to have a links page enelte links on this page is not working.
