yes when i wanna connect with tt- home..

From now on, to avoid having any ERROR messages from poping'up when running TTHOME

in your GPS, open the file called TTGO.bif with notepad

then in notepad, click FILE --> SAVE AS --> type in --> TTGO.ori (save this file to the root of your GPS)

Shutdown notepad

then open the file called TTGO.bif with notepad again

replace just these 2 lines like this...

From:
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=9051
ApplicationVersion=503855.2

To:
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=???? (basically Your devices offcial Navcore version number)
ApplicationVersion=???? (basically Your devices offcial Navcore version)

then click, FILE --> SAVE

and since notepad is still running, click FILE --> SAVE AS --> type in --> TTGO.bak (save this file to the root of your GPS)

What are the diffrents, i can only save them in a diffrent name/file than?
Because the text-lines that i must replace are the same right, only in a nother file?

or doing i something wrong?

Make sure your PC doesn't Hide Extensions For Known File Types...
if your on XP, follow --> [Please Register or Login to download file]

Then connect GPS to PC


(03)
open the file called [color="Red"]ttgo.bif[/color] with notepad


(04)
then in notepad, click FILE --> SAVE AS --> and name it --> [color="Red"]ttgo.ori[/color] (save this file to the root of your GPS)


(05)
Shutdown notepad

then open the file called [color="Red"]ttgo.bif[/color] with notepad again
and replace just these 2 lines like this...

From:
[color="Blue"]ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=9051
ApplicationVersion=503855.2[/color]
To:
[color="Orange"]ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=XXXX[/color] (basically Your devices offcial Navcore version number)

You can manually change the extension after in a Explorer window :-

Tools > Folder Options > View > (untick) Hide Extensions For Known File Types > Then Remove The Extension Manually

tried your method to, still get only the text formats,
Its so easy i see, but still hard to do it damn,

Uhm

dude,,, they are text format per say.....

but the extension needs to be .bak / .bif / .ori

make sure to not hide extensions.... http://www.navitotal.com/forums/noref.php?url=http://www.fileinfo.com/help/windows-show-extensions.html

Copy the contents of your ttgo.bif file. Paste the contents in a PM to me. I'll do it for you.
