Copy the current navcore on the 720 to a card.
Go here: Latest Navcores Download the 9.205.cab & X_ttsystem.9.205.547817.1.rar Copy the .cab files to the card, overwriting any common files. Copy only the ttsystem & PNDNavigator files from the .rar to the card, overwrite any common files.
Download Australia_865_3245 [126.1MB] Unzip it & copy the map folder to the card.
Go here: FastActivate ENG 28.03.2011 {1.8.6.6} Read the instuctions carefully. Download, unzip & run FastActivate. Click the map button.
Insert the card into the unit, if not already there. Boot the unit.

*. So I deleted all the files from the internal memory and transferred all the files from SD card to the internal memory but the same thing happens- it just keeps restarting itself.
**. I have checked my maps- it is patched (there is a dcf). There is also a meta txt file in the root directory.
1. A. To clarify, I dl the cab file as per your instruction, B. but I didn't dl any other Navcore files.. is that correct?
2. I also only copied those 2 files (TTsys & PND) but did not extract switch files on .rar... is that correct?

2. that .rar thing,
3. maps, (fast activate was used)... all as per your instruction.

i didn't patch TT home if that makes any difference?

msine13 wrote:OK- I went a bit further.
I reverted my internal memory to the original files. Started the unit. It worked.
Then I deleted (not format) all the files from my SD card and started from scratch. Copied the original files back into the SD card, did all your earlier instructions.
Put the card back into the slot and it started!!!

1. Now, there is a new issue though- the moment I tap the screen of the unit to try and get into menu settings (such as navigate to, or change preferences or anything)... it freezes, then reboots automatically. The status bar is perfectly fine, I can change the volume, I can change 2D to 3D.. but the moment I try and access the menu settings, it freezes (goes a bit grey) then reboots itself.

2. I am wondering if I should reformat the SD card and try again- this card was previously used a mac. But I have checked the properties and it's FAT32.

There isn't a mapsettings.cfg file in the map folder.

What I will try next is to remove the SD card and make changes (as per your instructions) directly to the internal memory and see how that goes. Thanks tendriver, I will keep you updated. For now, it's goodnight Maybe a clear head in the morning will help me!

Thanks again for your patience-
3. please let me know if you accept private donations, I have already given some to navitotal but am more than happy to show you some appreciation too....
