Hi guys (and gals),
Was about to sell my tomtom one 3rd edition as it is very outdated (2008 maps) but then found this site and want to update my maps now. However, I am a total noob with tomtoms (sorry!) and I am worried of losing the current maps in case something goes wrong.
I checked the tutorials but couldn't find an exact step-by-step guide and I am confused now.
1) If I backup the device with TomTom Home, can I restore it to its original state even though the new maps/software would be patched? Or will I need to do a manual copy-paste backup of all the current folders?
2) What is the exact procedure? Backup using TomTom home, copy new maps to root directory, patch?
3) Do I have to update/patch my navcore? Everything is up-to-date on TomTom Home.
4) Can I still connect to TomTom Home after installing new maps (e.g. for backup/restore, map sharing, etc) or will that cause a problem?
5) What maps do I need to install for UK? I ran the current configuration app and it gave the following info:
TTGO.BIF:
DeviceName=TomTom ONE
DeviceVersionHW=ONE (v6)
BootLoaderVersion=55001
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=8010
ApplicationVersion=9369
CurrentMap=United_Kingdom_and_Republic_of_Ireland
CurrentMapVersion=715.1689
TTGO.BAK:
Not Found...
TTGO.ORI:

TTNAVIGATOR.BIF:

Sorry for the repetitive nature of the question and thanks in advance for your help!!
