Hey guys,
Trying to update my tomtom using this website. As far as I can tell, the newest navcore is compatible with this device, the TomTom HOME software suggested upgrading to version 9.510.
So, I downloaded that version from the megathread and installed it to the tomtom. It booted up, but it said there were no voice files, and it continually kept rebooting. It would also not find a GPS signal. As for the maps, I looked at the chart in the 920 navcore thread and went with UK+ROI, 920.5267 with the EXE installer which automatically patches also.
Using this combination, as described the tomtom turns on but is then stuck in a bootloop. There's also no voices. I read up about installing the voices first, but could not find where to get them, or where they go on the device. They do however show up on TomTom HOME , or used to. TomTomHOME is now stuck in an update loop for the home software, i'm currently reinstalling that now!
My second attempt was to download "Universal Navcore Installer". From there, I tried the specific version for XL devices, and also the XL version for 32mb RAM devices. Both of these make the screen garbled. The device boots up, but then the tomtom logo gets pushed to the lower corner of the device, like it's set up the screen incorrectly. It then just hangs there until I press the reset button.
Can anyone help? I really thought I had done this right from everything I've read....
Thanks!

In my current state of booting with garbled screen, there seems to be no ttgo.bif on the internal memory.
Thanks for any help!
