Keep getting .dct error and map incomplete never had this before (map from freehosted links and TTActivator; same)

ttgo.bif:
DeviceName=TomTom GO 730

DeviceSerialNumber=J4xxxxxxxxxx

Map(s):

Speedcams update fine, reverted to 1135_12405 and fine from SD card backup. But I done loads of updates (since 1065) and never hit any issue.

Anyone else or where do I start?

That map is actually a NAV 3 map, not a NAV2 map for your device so you need to search around here & maybe other forums to find out how to use a NAV 3 map on a NAV 2 device

I just used the older map from the compatibility page and they've worked up until now? I did have the patched Navcore and I just tried the 9.702 Navcore and patched it to same end.

Nevertheless, I will do as you say, thanks for the heads up

So from another forum I got a Optimise_Nav3.exe, ran it. It asked me to delete a couple of directories / functions then optimise the map, so I did. Result still same. Seems to be about the amount of RAM required to load the map? But the UK&ROI map isn't all that big, I still backup to a 1GB card (to and including 1135) and there are no more or less functions enabled than on the last map but there are no Nav2 1140 maps here for the territory.

I'm still using the patched 9702 Navcore so I'll revert to backup again and use the (optimised) map replacement method I've always used.

If there are any links / posts here, the search isn't finding them, so at the cost of being a pain can't you point me if you know where they are please?

Download the latest Fastactivate

tomtom-tools/fastactivate-latest-update-t19452.html

unpack

Use exactly the instructions update by Holyhead:

Download the latest FastActivate
1. Update Meta.txt (after that don't quit the program)
2. Patch Map
3. Done - quit FastActivate
---
If you want the activate another map after you have quit the program use the following procedure:
1. Update Meta.txt
2. Patch Maps
3. Done - quit FastActivate

So always update the meta.txt again after quitting FastActivate

Why are you using a truck-specific navcore like 9.702 instead of the 9.541 as shown in your ttgo.bif (post #1)

Hello,

I stopped using FastActivate for several months.
All last maps came through TTActivator (map download, meta-txt, patching, safety cams, quickgpsfix).

The best navcore with a Go730 is 9.541. Perfect with a nav2 map (or even a nav3 map if SD card is large enough).
Navcore 9.702 is rather to use with a nav2 map for truck.

Did you check if downloads were interrupted or link has failed ?

What about testing TTActivator once more ?
