I've recently bought a toyota aygo which has installed the above mentioned tomtom.
The thing is, although it is official included by toyota (it is not just an add on from the dealership), it does not have greek menus, nor it can read greek maps. The names of the roads are in latin characters.
Now, my parents also use this car and they are not so familiar with any of the other languages available.
I contacted both tomtom and toyota and their answer was that this model does not support greek.
Even thought they sell it in greece.
I've tried installing a dozen different navcores some with success, other with none.
Most of the latest models of tomtom have full greek support.
Could someone please tell me which navcore I should install or if there is a way to add greek keyboard / charset and menu to my existing navcore ?
The device info says it has 128MB RAM, GPS v1.21, Boot 8.0032, App 7.825, OS 327431.
Please if anyone has any idea, leave a reply.
I've spend hours and hours and I've become desperate.
Thanks
Andrew

Sweet!
It's amazing on how many devices this new NC works :)

I have tried this version in a TomTom Eclipse II in a Toyota Aygo with the exact same device info as fuzzbuzz by following these steps:

1. I copied all the files in Navcore-9.401-Fan-Edition into an empty SD (in my case a microSD 4GB with an adaptor to SD).
2. In the folder skins, I opened the file reskin and left only the following: 18-GO x20;25-GO x30;24-GO x40.
3. I copied the map folder into the SD (the last version of Greece with greek street names is 885 4008 and with english street names 885 4010).
4. I put the SD into TomTom and I let it boot so that it can tell us that this map cannot be used and the files settings.dat and ttgo.bif are created.
5. I reconnected it to the pc and I activated the map using FastActivate.
6. Then, I had greek menu and greek street names.

Unfortunately there are some problems in this version:

1. Many times it either doesn't start (it shows that the bar is loaded, then it shows the castle and just before it boots completely, in the last second it shuts down) or it doesn't shut down.
2. It cannot recognise the old greek voices olympia and aristidis using a map with greek street names so the only solution I found was to either leave it silent and you don't have audio instructions or set the language to English so that the menu and voice are english.

Fuzzbuzz or anyone else, if you have made it work better, please be kind and share your wisdom because a lot of people will be interested in Greece who have this car and gps.
