TomTom 7.9 on PDA with v8.15 Maps- Instructions

Tested with MDA Compact 3 on Windows Mobile 6.
This is TomTom 7.9 with the very latest maps.

1) Find the device ID of your PDA.
See step 1 of this post.

2) Download TTN7.450.9028_repack.cab from somewhere (usual places, just search in google and you will find)

3) Place the downloaded file onto the memory card of your WM device, and run, this will install tomtom 7.45.

4) Download vga.7.910.9185.black. (Tip: put the name into google and go to first result)

5) On your device, navigate to: \My Device\Intern geheugen\Navigator and extract vga.7.910.9185.black onto it, click yes to any messages to overwrite. (Note: the folder is on the device, not the sd card of your device)

6) Download UK_Ireland_815.2024 onto your computer. (tips: again, put the file name into google and plenty available) and extract it to any folder.

7) Download the easyusetool attached to the bottom of this post and extract it somewhere on you computer.

8) On the easyusetool, there is a text file called device ID, put your device ID in there (from step1), all captals and no spaces.

In the map folder that you downloded in step 6, there is a file that ends with the extension DCT, copy and paste that into the folder "insert_meta_from_Map_here".

9) Double click on RunMeforDCT.

10) Select the following options:

1 > 1 >

11) Navigate to the insert_meta_from_Map_here and copy and paste all the files into your map folder.

12) Copy map folder to the root of your devices memory card.

Run tomtom!!


Ps: this method will not work on devices with dedicated internal memory as your map folder, even if it is wm5 or 6. Map will need to go on external memory card.

Hope this helps..
Hello I got a HTC touch HD followed all instructions on for dealing with maps using easyusetool, however when i get to the part using RunMeForDCT, i have copied meta file to respective folder, every time i run select 1 and then 1 it will not except my device ID it is looking for a numerical 10 digit code, my HD device ID begins with text and has a couple of underlines in it (TOUCH_HD_T8528), now the answer to this may be simple, looking for a speedy response

Is it in tomtom home you are finding this? if so, its just under that. It be called just ID. its somewhere there for definate. eg AG23K KJ98J. Can be any combinations of letters and/or numbers. When you insert that into the txt file be sure to remove the space.

managed to get the easyools open, however it wont save the device ID from tomtom home. Ive downloaded 4 or 5 different map veriosn .. someo f which open and only have a dat file, the others dont even open as such. if anyone has any links to any uk maps which are current and working it would be appreciated. Also if anyone could let me know why the easytool wont save the device id??

Thanks
 
Anyone point me toward the latest uk maps, for use with TT7.9 - all the links I keep finding are dead!
