Tomtom 520

Thu Jul 19, 2012 7:13 pm

Hi Guys
I have a Go520 which has been patched for USA maps. After the latest update from Tomtom home it no longer recognises the installed UK map.
As i want to sell this on, is there any place I can get the original navcore and maps to return the unit to default state?
I remember finding a link somewhere when I stuffed up before, but cant remember where.

1. You just have a patching issue.
2. The original navcore was 7.000 up to 7.221, depending on when it was bought. Original maps or updated maps bought from TomTom are device specific. Unless you made a copy of the original map, you can forget that idea.
3. The current 520 navcore is 9.430, which I suspect was the lastest update you are referring to. Download FastActivate Premium 1.8.8.9 Patch the navcore, patch the maps & don't worry about it.
4. If you are selling the 520 for a newer unit, you might want to think about it. The newer units can't be updated, except through MyTomTom at a cost.
