Look in /data/data/com.tomtom.gplay.navapp/ using something like root explorer or Total Commander.

Hi Guys,
I have android head running 4.4.2 kitkat. I have been using 1.18.1 without a problem untill I accidently deleted the app. Now when I tried to re- install, map does not download any more on this device. I tried the same app in my tablet which runs 5.0.3 lollipop, no problem downloading the map. My head does not have android update to go to lollipop.
Can someone help me with this.

It's been like that for a while.
At least Android 5 required for map downloads .....
There is no solution ........ Just another navigation app

I have managed to export the map from android 5 to Android 4.4 as per this thread. But for the final hurdle the DCT file is not letting the map to start. Do any one know how to sign the DCT map with my device ID
