In addition to any storage issues you might have, I would suspect that the resolution of your Kindle might not be 480x800/800x480 and may be in fact 1,280x800?
These versions of TomTom Android are not friendly to higher (or lower) resolution devices. And not tablet friendly as a result.
I doubt very much it would work.

I have copied the tomtom folder to sd card root and the .apk file. After installation it says that cannot connect to tomtom server. The same happen if I copy the .apk file to internal memory! May be the tomtop server has been desactivated?

No, what that means is the app is not recognizing where the data is on your device.
If installed properly and the data is in the correct place, no connection is attempted.
Where the APK is after the install is irrelevant...it is not used after that and can even be deleted.
If the path is not mnt/sdcard/tomtom/com.tomtom.* you may have issues.
On many Android phones (the majority) the path to the SD Card is mnt/sdcard. On some devices, it is not.
For any device where the path to the SD Card is not mnt/sdcard, you will need a modified APK that includes other paths that the original from TomTom does not.

That may mean that, at some point a license check occurred by having data or wifi enabled when starting the App. All of my current installs (4 of them) still work as of one minute ago. It could also mean (assuming as you say that everything worked before) that the SD Card data has become corrupted somehow and is not being recognized by the app as being 'complete'.

1. Unpack maps to storage to directory example \tomtom\com.tomtom.europe
2. Install mod .apk
3. Run and enjoy

That it is able to run at that resolution is certainly a pleasant surprise.
I don't have any 'high res' devices to test on, but from what I have read from others, most are not successful. Maybe it is highly device-dependent in that way...OK for some, and definitely not for others.
Glad you got it working!

I am trying to install this on a Samsung Galaxy S2 , it has installed ok but it keeps trying to connect and then shuts down, if i have read this thread correctly i should change this
"Special Note:
For any of the installs to work, the PATH (on your device) to the data must be
//mnt/sdcard/tomtom/com.tomtom.*
If your SD Card path is anything other than //mnt/sdcard/, none of these will work for you. You may need a modified APK that includes more paths built in that the original from TomTom does not."

I have tried changing it to sdcard/external_sd/ but still wont work , anyone able to help out ?
