Is there a way to restore the original later on if something goes wrong?

Does the original SD comes with navcore too? Great guide and very helpful information for someone like me who is new to all this thanks ddeebru Not at all, if you use a patched SD the internal flash is not modified at all.

But remember that the internal flash has only the navcore, but not map o voices. So keep safe the original, make a fresh SD from scracth or copy the original and make the SD from that copy, it doesn matter offline Joined: Thu May 20, 2010 6:13 am Posts: 32 Has thanked: 0 time Been thanked: times. Hello Apak and thanks for this FAQ, I have a problem in getting the device ID in this situation: How to build a SD from scratch? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 0.- Get you DEVICE ID (Hold down INFO + Joystick right click) In my case I don't have the original SD card ad I am trying to build one from scratch when I do the step 0 all it says that No Maps Found I guess there is no way to find out the device ID than?

I think my GPS have not been initialized it's a new car and may be they never inserted the original SD card in it so it never got it's ttgo.bif. It always tell me that the Card is ready to be used with TOMTOM Home and when I insert it in my PC always the same error. I think I am the only one that have this problem. Could it be the new security system of the CARMINAT to never give it's device ID? Thanks again and if anyone have some ideas please don't hesitate offline Joined: Mon Mar 07, 2011 5:04 pm Posts: 2 Has thanked: 0 time Been thanked: 0 time. • Related topics Replies Views Last post • by » Wed Jan 26, 2011 7:17 pm 4 Replies 4509 Views Last post by Thu Jan 27, 2011 10:53 pm • by » Tue Dec 03, 2013 9:53 pm 2 Replies 925 Views Last post by Wed Dec 04, 2013 7:33 am • by » Sat Dec 07, 2013 4:58 pm 0 Replies 1058 Views Last post by Sat Dec 07, 2013 4:58 pm • by » Mon Jun 23, 2014 8:25 am 0 Replies 707 Views Last post by Mon Jun 23, 2014 8:25 am • by » Tue Dec 14, 2010 9:33 pm 9 Replies 3052 Views Last post by Fri Dec 24, 2010 5:46 pm Who is online Users browsing this forum: Bing [Bot] and 2 guests.
