Older version of TTHome

Postby SaltyKaptain » Thu Dec 15, 2016 9:27 pm

Soo anybody have a link to an older version of tomtom Home?

Is patching the home app necessary to get a new map to work? If so I'm gonna need to generate the home .dll but my home app doesn't have the option to "operate device". I guess a .dll from a similar device wouldn't work?

Man I picked the wrong time to buy an old gps (tomtom one btw)

You don,t need Home at all. Do you have an SD slot ?

first check your bootloader
Checking bootloader (the only reliable method)
Enter a device reset 15 sec.
Then turn on the device and hold the start button until you
get info screen. Which bootloader is there.

Yeah, there's an SD slot, I have a 1GB microSD from an old Nokia or something, not SDHC.

The bootloader is 5.3029

Navcore 7914, tried to install Scandinavia 980.7899 as per the compatibility chart.

I'm pretty sure I just messed up with the meta files.

There is no meta for the Scandinavia 980.7899
So instead use Scandinavia 980_7971

1) Reset the device (at least 15 sec) and then run it till the notice "No map found" or can,t use
this map
2) Use Scandinavia 980_7971. Unpack it and
Copy the new map to your SD card in its own folder.
When you open the map you see the individual files.
Not a map in a map.
3) Copy "FastActivate.exe" to your SD Card root.
Run "FastActivate.exe".
Select 2
Select 3
Wait for the announcement navcore Patched.
topic14003.html
4) SD card in the device. Reset the device (at least 15 sec)

Done
====
Look at the chart Horizontal the navcores
In your case the 7.914 so the 7.9xx

Then vertical the Green Y
To the left, the maps wich can be used with the navcore
To the right wich features the map have. Those features only have use if your device supports them.
i.e. the One has no microphone so a map wich support it has no use (except there is no other map).
At least there must be a META for the map. So NO META the map has NO USE AT ALL.
