Help with TOMTOM 5 Navigator installation on XDA Exec

[Jazajar]

I have just bought a TomTom 5 Navigator with GPS (used), problem is when I put the SD card into the XDA the TomTom screen flashes up then disappears and nothing else happens. As I am new to all this can ANYONE help me with instructions on how to install and get this working???

Find the .CAB files on the SD card and install them - then do a soft reset :) Hope this helps...

Will give that a try, thanks

Hi,

Important! - Before you install.

Be sure to copy the 'TomTom' folder which has the 'CurrentMap.dat'
file to the PocketPC's 'My Documents' folder first. It should be a small folder and CURRENTMAP.DAT is only a couple of hundred bytes long.

Then install the software as normal.

No offence but the copy you have bought is not so much second hand as "hacked"

Hope that's a help

Cheers

Chris
