Since your 710 uses a SD card you can use a map of any size. The only issue is your navcore version, which you failed to mention.

You use the speedcams that match the country you require (See the help file within the cams download) and you can use any poi you require

Also 7.903 is a dinosaur i reccomend to you to upgrade to a v9 navcore ;)

ty djc151084 .
can i put any nav v9 in my go710( i see that you have the 9.103)?
and about poi and speed cam i read that it should go in the map but i think i can creat a foldert with the name "poi".is that right?

i was reading your thread about nav where you say that it should be updated progressebly .how sow?just 7.9 8 9 is that enough?
and i see nothing about v9 compactibility in your sheet.

Yes 9.103 will work for you use the files below, no need to upgrade progressivly just go straight to 9.103 ;)

For the POI and cam files they go directly in your map folder, the cam files will need patching the first time,then updates do not need patching ;)

Then copy your map folder and patch if needed ;)

It is not unusual for a unit to take a little longer than normal to pick up a signal after updating it's navcore.

You are missing a file from the folder "bin" look in the same folder in 1 of your backups for the file "mp3d" and put it in the "bin" folder on the new setup , if you dont have it in a backup let me know and i will give it to you

i found the file mp3d in an old navcore that i tried and all seems to be working fine, but will give you a proper feedback when i trie it on the road.
do the pictures need a similar file? some "jpegd" lol.

offtopic:i boght a go910 that does charge the battery and even when conected to the pc and changer the maximum that happens is going and staying in a screen where you see a green background and a white drawing of a tomtom device. the yellow bar doesnt even start or shows and the pc doesnt detects the tomtom.
sorry for the offtopic .
