Thank you all for the help. I tried to clear flash ( 2 times), do a hard reset. Tried to patch but still did not work.

Happy New year

You can give the following procedure a try.

1) Take empty SD card from at least 8GB SDHC class 6 or higher.
2) Format the SD card Fat32 once slowly. If it's a new card then you can skip this.
3) Use NavCore 9.510 and unpack it (winrar o.i.d) and place the files and folders on the SD card.
Insert SD Card in the device.

4) Reset the device (at least 10 sec) and then run it till the notice "No Map found"
5) Use your chosen map (United_States_2GB 1020_9245). Unpack it and
Copy the new map to your SD card in its own folder.
When you open the map you see the individual files.
Not a map in a map.
6) Copy "FastActivate.exe" and file meta.txt to root SD card.

WE LIKE TO HEAR THE RESULTS GOOD OR BAD

Tried the following procedure.
Note: When I did the following steps I still had the US_CAN map and all other Navcore etc file on the tomtom internal drive.

1) Take empty SD card from at least 8GB SDHC class 6 or higher.
2) Skipped this card formatting
3) Use NavCore 9.510 and unpack it (winrar o.i.d) and placed the files and folders on the SD card.
Insert SD Card in the device. I did not get the map not found message, just saw a picture of the road.
4) Reset the device (at least 10 sec)
Did not get "Map not found"
5) Used chosen map (United_States_2GB 1020_9245). Unpacked it and
Copied the new map to your SD card in its own folder.
This step went fine
6) Copied "FastActivate.exe" and file meta.txt to root SD card.
Ran "FastActivate.exe".
Select 2. Here get error TomTom.go.bif not found


Thanks for all the help.

Copy ttgo.bif from the root of the internal drive to the root of the SD Card and run FastActivate option 2 again
Then complete step 7

Copied ttgo.bif from the root of the internal drive to the root of the SD Card and ran FastActivate option 1 and 2 again
When I restart the tomtom, all I see is a pic of road. Rest tomtom and restart still the same.
Renamed updated_meta.txt to meta.txt

Should I run option 1 to create update the meta.txt?

I deleted all thE files from the device. I copied the above provided navcore and the map I had. Used the Fast activate to patch the map and Navcore and it worked.

The only difference is that all the files are on my device rather than the SD card. I am still missing some steps to activate the map on sd card.
Thanks again to all for the advice and hard work. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

None of this makes any sense at all but ok, it works now

To activate the map on the SD card you should have:

1. ttgo.bif & the new map in it's own folder on the SD root
2. copy FastActivate.exe & an updated meta.txt into the map folder
3. run FastActivate.exe from there and select option 2

That should be simple enough...

Thanks a lot for all the help

Huh...what are you talking about?

We've previously put a lot of time and effort into trying to help you update the map and navcore and now you're back (with a very old map installed again) saying you 'cannot mamage or add POI's'

I am sorry. I thought this are the latest US_CA maps.

Nope, v995 was released in Aug-15
Here are all the current/latest v1025 maps and here are all the metas for them we have:-
maps-v1xxx/tomtom-v1025-map-collection-t21099.html
maps-v1xxx/meta-codes-1025-t21100.html

or even easier, see maps-v1xxx/using-v1025-maps-without-metas-available-t21134.html

Hi, When trying to use the US_CANADA_1025_9387 map getting the error cannot use this map with this device. Cannot patch the navcore, getting DLL error.
Any help appreciated.

It's only USA_Canada_1025_9387 that has a meta code available so I'm assuming you mean that one?

Here is a link to a pre-patched NC 9.541 ttsystem file...just extract it to the root of your device:
