Newbie trying to get Tomtom truck reinstalled

Wed Oct 05, 2011 9:13 am

Hello this is my first thread so please be kind :o

I had tomtom truck (don't know which version number, but it was an old one) running from a 2gb sd card, on Sunday my satnav decided to delete the maps from the card (yes the sat nav managed that!, there were no files left on the card when I connected it my computer later on).

I now need to get the software installed again but I'm a complete newbie when it comes to work like this that involves patching, codes, keygens etc. Someone talked me through it in the past.

My sat nav is a Tomtom One XL with software version 8.010 installed, I have a 2gb sd card and a 4gb SDHC card available to use but the tomtom won't read the 4gb card, gives me a picture of a red cross when I insert it.

Can someone please point me in the right direction as to what version is best, what card is best, and how to get me up and running before I return to work tomorrow.

Thanks
Mark.

Take the 1st from here & use a 4Gb SD card http://www.navitotal.com/forums/showthread.php?5464-Current-SE-8.398-TRUCK-WORK-navcores-for-other-devices

Thanks for the reply. I downloaded the first file, unzipped it and it gave me one single .dlc file? Have I done something wrong? Should that download give me everything I need to copy to the memory card to be up and running again?

That downloaded dlc is an encrypted link to the Fileserve download. Use Jdownloader (do a "search" round here)

1. In the .cab there is a file named system. Copy this file to your internal memory & reboot. This will allow your device to use a SDHC 4GB or larger card.
2. Put a copy of your device's ttgo.bif on the 4GB card.
3. Unzip & copy the 8.398 navcore & pre-patched ttsystem file to the card.
4. Unzip & copy the 875 map to the card.
5. Put the card in your unit & reboot.

Thank you for all the replies.

FAO Tendriver: So I download the navcore link, the ttsystem_8398 link and the link in orange, all 12 parts of it? (assuming that is the uk version? last one I had was called Western Europe and uk?)

Then follow the instructions you have posted?

1. Yes.
2. Yes, all 12 parts. There is no UK version. The map has been named Europe Truck since at least the 840 edition. It does cover the UK.
3. Yes. There are some additional instructions for the map here: All New Maps 875.XXXX

Thank you once again for your help, it's a slow process downloading all the parts, I'll post again when it's all up and running (hopefully) :D

I've managed to download all the link above except for parts 8 and 12, they just refuse to download. I've tried it on my pc, a laptop and a netbook and everytime it refuses to start downloading. Does anyone else have a problem and is there an alternative place to download these parts? Also assuming if there is then part 8 and 12 are the same and contain the same files?

Thanks
Mark.

Hmm strange, he's replied to mine so it sent somehow. Links work perfectly, back to the downloading :)

Thanks to everyone who has helped.

I've got to the stage of copying it all to the memory card. Part one of the download is an .exe file so I can't extract it. It asks me to select which drive my tomtom is, does this install it all for me and save extracting the rest? that creates a lot of files that are in total 2.43gb. Please can someone help me out :( :helpsos:

1. Correct.
2. Yes. That's why it is named "Automatic Installer & Patcher".
3. 2.43GB is the correct size.
