1. What navcore is on your F&H?
2. How much storage space do you have?

It has sd card so no prob! not sure what navcore , how do i find out???? :D many thanks

You can not use a TT Navcore on a CE device, so I doubt you could have installed the Navcore for a ONE on it.
I guess you are talking about the CE versions 7.9xx....
Depending on the version of TT you might be able to simply replace the map folder with a new one, but there are also CE versions of TT that need a very specific procedure to get maps working.
IMHO the best option would be to use IGO or Primo.
TT only offers the most basic feature for the software and maps on CE.

ok cool! all i want do is have some north usa maps as a bit of help while over there so what ever you think will be easy for me to load on is good for me, so do i download IGO / Primo (where from ?)on to sd card then maps i wont and then patch it with keygen??? sorry but not very good at stuff like this and its bit a while since i have mess around like this lol! please help there so much on site for me to work out !:chok_mini: many thanks again!!!!! ralph

Just check the IGO section for good 8.3 version and add a map for the region of your choice.
There are easy to follow tuts available for whole procedure but it is usually nothing more than download, put on SD and if necessary adjust the settings.
TT is just too old now but if you want to do a quick check if your TT version is easy to handle just make a backup and replace the existing map folder with a new one suiting your needs.
If you are lucky all you need to do is activate the new map using FastActivate.

@ panpot,

United_States v900.4608 is the only map in the current 900.XXXX Edition, that is usable with your device.

Post 1 of the OUR map threads, speedcam thread, Fuel thread, & post 2 of our map collection threads. In 90% of member threads, that deal with new maps and/or navcores. Also the Tools section.
