Correct and the new .bif is copied from the .bak which contains the 'false' navcore 9541 info, but if I look at the Status & Info screen on the 930, it correctly shows App 9205. Each time I connect it to Home, I will only be offered map updates & gpsfix - until and unless, another newer navcore is released. Quite where the .ori fits in to the regime - I have no idea but that gives the correct navcore 9205 info and presumably feeds it to the Status & Info screen.
Copied from the new .bif (the edited .bak is the same):
[TomTomGo]
DeviceName=TomTom GO 930
DeviceVersionHW=GO 930
DeviceSerialNumber=XXXXXXXXXXXX
DeviceUniqueID=XXXXX XXXXX
RamDiskVersion=20100702
BootLoaderVersion=55120
LinuxVersion=547200

So, it appears that if a ttgo.bif is not present, a new one is created from the ttgo.bak file, rather than being "re-generated". It also appears that 'Home' takes the contents of the ttgo.bif as being 'correct' without verifying them against the actual contents of the device.
