Thread: Mix of Tomtom and HERE files on IGO?

This is the old thread, but some feedback could be useful

Using R-Link 2 (Android based) with custom maps.

I am mixing fbl, fsp and fpa files of different providers for the same country, and it is working well for more than a year. As TomTom do not provided fpa files for some countries in 2021.06 and 2021.12, I added the adequate HERE fpa files and it working without a single glitch.

As far as i was able to read in some iGo specifications, it seems that regardless of the provider, the files that will be used must follow the standard specified by the iGo, so it seems that it is not important who the provider is as long as the files are designed to meet particular iGo specification

Hopefully, this could be useful for guys who are preparing the maps on its own

No !
The files in the "map" folder must be from the same provider and have the same quarter as the .fbl file. Otherwise they will not be recognized. You can use other poi and buildings.
You just didn't notice........

Maybe read back a few posts
