Hi there total newbie to hacking sat nav's here, but looking to get the latest or best navcore and maps for my Tomtom 520, a list of software tools need would be appreciated too??

I'm sorry if this has been mentioned a thousand times before but im really struggling to find the information i need regarding my Tomtom model and the whole process is starting to get a little tedious now :0(

Im currently using ...

I see a lot of Tom Tom owners identify their units as model #N14644 especially on E-Bay. It is apparent from all the different pictures that they can't be the same. Does anyone know what this number means? I thought that the first two letters of the serial number were used to identify the model?

Thanks

trying to sort out my mates XL n14644, it has not been flashed or anything but he updated via tom tom home and installed 8083/9669 navcore, now when switched on it goes through the set up process but always freezes when he goes to set the time, ive looked at things like map settings etc to see if they could be cause but its not

any ideas on what could be causing this

Hello,

Just some feedback on the above Navcore

After upgrading I lost all the voices for most of the time, although they would return intermittently throughout the journey.

DeviceName=TomTom XL IQ Routes Edition
DeviceVersionHW=XL IQ Routes Edition
BootLoaderVersion=55136
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=9056
ApplicationVersion=542741.2
CurrentMap=Australia
CurrentMapVersion=875.3671

I have a TomTom One XL that I have upgraded to the latest Australia map 875.3671 and the SE_Navcore.9.205.547817_32mb_devices navcore, and activated with FastActivate_28.08.2011_Premium_edition_v1.8.7.2.

It will navigate to any of my favourites, but crashes when I enter a new Navigate To address. Could you please tell me how I can sort this out. I am happy to use any older navcore if that will be more stable - I just want it to work and ...

I tried updating my maps for my device and ran the the FastActivate.exe program and all 3 buttons after copying the folder & contents (USA_and_Canada_865_3261) to my GPS. I then let the device reboot and am prompted with the message "You cannot use this map on this device: USA_and_Canada". I then came across this forum and saw the help that people were able to get along with newer maps and figured that I'd ask for ...

its running 8300/9372 at the moment whats the most suitable update for this device is it 9205 ?

But my wife has the same TomTom and i updated hers with the same map from TomTom home and hers works fine. Any ideas on how I could fix this would be a help. Thx
