first you need to find out what OS it is running, does it run WinCE or WM or other ?

if its ce then heres a rough guide depending on your device set up

here goes i did this using the basic mio unlock desktop on a navman s50 running CE5.0 s so i would hope the basics will be the same.it may work
First unlock the device using miomoo unlock
On the storage card create a folder called Navigator and into that folder put theses files

[Please Register or Login to download file]

Now using your pc , look in the device root memory and in Programs you should find “FileManCE” move this into Desktop folder of the device and Reboot.You can now use FileManCE to run programmes on the desk top
copy your map ,voices, and fast activation tool to the root of the storage card
now using the file manCE on your desktop got into there and run the tom tom navigator .exe file it should be in Navigator\TomTom Navigator\tom tom navigator.exe .Run it until you get invalid maps
then on your pc go into the storage card and run the fast activation to patch device/ maps/ voices etc etc
that should have it working, too create a desktop shortcut for tom tom follow the 2 links below
[Please Register or Login to download file]
[Please Register or Login to download file]

also there is a bug in this navigator when you contect to car for use so, once you have it all running ,shortcuts created and maps patched .Then you need to overwrite the tom tom .exe file with a new one here in the zip for you. just rename the file by adding .exe on the end and copy it into Navigato\TomTom Navigator file and overwrite

hope this is clear enough
Be aware this is just a basic tom tom navigator program for mobiles etc so while you can have upto date maps and speed cams etc , you will not be able to use tt vocalizer for street names or ALG

also added is the miomove desktop unlock file

Credit goes to Neil over at Navman man forum who helped me work through this

I ran Tomtom on a Win CE 4.2 device, You need to run navcore 7,450 from within a mortscript otherwise it crashes with an out of memory error, TBH it's a pain in the proverbial because it always starts up with a route in memory and it corrupts itself reguarly needing to be reinstalled from a pc, When it works it's ok but i'd recommend iGO Primo for a trouble free sat nav. Make sure you use the WinCE 4.2 version of the TTS dlls for TTS.

Everything you need is available on this forum or from torrents. You need the iGO Primo application, check what resolution your device is and find the data.zip for it, and maps for your area, Then you can add features like tts and buildings if you want. It sounds more complicated than it is.

Please start a new topic in the IGO forum to talk about that OS
