Okay anyone advise me what this luckypatcher is that you guys are talking about , to be honest never ever heard of it mentioned before ? okay from you guys that have been lucky enough to get tomtom working on android could you kindly advise me exactly what you done as using the following guide certainly does not work for many with obviously the main problem referring to the unable to connect message being shown ?

do I have to install then uninstall this official apk as was suggested a few replies ago ?
does android 4.3 on the galaxy s3 support this tomrom ?



Suggested instructions :

1. Download all parts of your area.
2. Unpack anywhere.
3. Copy folder tomtom to your SD card.
4. Copy included .apk to your SD card.
5. Disable any internet connection in your phone (Put it into Airplane Mode)
6. Install the .apk
7. Launch the program. Let it load all it needs. Then close program.
8. Enable internet connection.
9. Enjoy![/b]

Okay leaving this luckypatcher aside which as I said I have never heard about ?!
I am still left wondering how I sucusfully install this Tomtom apk plus uk and ROI map on my galasxy s3 running 4.3 ? as I say followed this simple installing guide but still getting the cannot connect message, one thing I did forget to do was switch the flight mode off after I insrtalled everythything and ran the tt programme , I take it I don't require flight mode off to remove this error as obviously the maps etc are on the phone itself and there is no requirement for it to connect to tomtom ?
so again anyone who has installed this on a galaxy phone please advise what you did different from the following to get it to work ?
