unable to patch tomtom home 'correct tomtom home .dll missing for your device'

Thanks to the helpful tutorials I have successfully updated my tomtom xl to navcore 9 and a new 865 map.

I'm having problems patching the tomtom home app as per the tutorial. I've let tomtom home download the new app and i get the message about the map being incompatible with my device. I quit tomtom home and run the keygen but i get the above error message. Have tried repeating and rebooting with no joy

Would be grateful for some help.

Make sure to have a ttgo.bak in the root of your device with the values of the original Navcore in it.
Just open the ttgo.bif with and editor and change the 2 lines for the application version, save as ttgo.bak.

Open your XL in windows explorer. Open the ttgo.bif file with notepad. Copy & post line 3. DeviceVersionHW=???????

First ten lines:

If you are referring to the link in post 5, it is a good link. Click "Save file to your PC: [url=javascriptssEwJTjQNKKuPAw2GT()]Download[/url] " in the lower right corner.

I have just tried the suggestion to use the old version number in the ttgo.bif file.
Keygen patched successfully but 'operate xl' is still broken. Screen just says no map available and won't let me do anything. I only really want to be able to set a pin.
Thanks again,
Ed

Tendriver, I still can't get it to download. Have tried firefox and IE and all I get are popups.

Thanks for the file tendriver - that stops tomtom home complaining when loading up.
If I try to operate the device via tomtom home i still get the error message about the map being incompatible and can't proceed beyond that. Am I stuck with this? I only want to do this to set a pin so it's not the end of world.
Is it safe to let tomtom home download the gpsfix update?

Apologies again for the stream of questions!

1. Wish you had mentioned the complaining earlier. We could have saved us both a lot of time.

To fix version error.
Open the ttgo.bif file with Notepad.
Replace lines 9 & 10 with these:
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=8010
ApplicationVersion=9369
"Save as" ttgo.bak
Disconnect & reboot, then go to "operate my device".

2. No.
3. Yes. gpsfix & mapsharing are safe to use.

I realise it's probably fast getting to the point where you want to murder me!
I've done that and now I get 'no map found' and still unable to do anything

Copy everything, except the map, like you are making a backup. Put it in a folder. Zip or rar it and attach to an email reply to my earlier one to you.
