When I go to the car, Carminat says can't use this map. Please help what to do. I even tried to create SD card from scratch with no result. Thank you for any suggestions.

Is the navcore patched FA no 3 ?

I've updated the one I have including meta. Is there difference if I update old one or use the 3 version?

Maybe I will download new one and try.

No I mean if you use FastAktivate and choose point number 3 (Patched navcore)

yes,
1. update Fast or meta (if FA is close to up the date)
2. patch navcore
3. patch maps

When I install old map from TTHome and it works in the car, I take the new map paste in to root folder and activate. It activate both maps after I push SD to carminat it says on both that I can't use them.

in the folder of map there is missing cline.dat and the folder is only 463 mb where this map should be over 3.5GB

Yes that did the trick and is the same when you make your own ttgo.bif file as named in the instruction before.
It works and thanks for your feedback.

So in "ttgo.bif" in SD card root must be ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=8843 or ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=8842?

When I first make the SD card I've change to 8842 (something goes with activating with FA) because otherwise carminat show the message that I can't use this map in this device.
