And one more thing - as pe1agp wrote - try to extract your current map from USB drive and extract meta.txt from it... May be it would be worth your efforts?

...and one more - it'll be interesting to get list of files from your USB drive - maybe it contains navcore files?

I see .meta and .meta.dct files - are either of those what you are looking for? Here's my drive contents after prepping the USB for update and connecting it to my Mac running TomTom Home.

I see - ttgo.bif we saw earlier - no much profit...
I can conclude - map (as in ttgo.bif) - about 940 release:

1 - we don't have it in our collection, but doubt we need it.
2 - from map content - it is common for nav3 map content - no doubt in this.
3 - no site of navcore seen - usual to nav3 devices - navcore installed (and updating - goes to) into internal - no chance to see and patch it (at least - till you find original install file; but as for nav3 - they use to come in *.ttpkg archives - no chance to modify this type of archive).

Conclusion:

Alas, at this point - no chance to install maps from community...

PS If you'll find original navcore - we'll see what can be made, but don't put much hope on it...

If I buy the next 12 mo of updates, would you be able to potentially use this to help create solutions for this type of GPS? Just wondering what types of data I should be collecting or if I should just turn the entire USB into an image.

**pe1agp** · 19th March 2018, 08:20 AM

This is a very long list, but I realy don't know what to do with it.
We need the map and a meta code generated by Fastactivate
For the newer devices we've to wait Rusigor, I'm rather sure he is more familiar with these new devices.

**rusigor** · 21st March 2018, 09:20 PM

@ dcdriver
Solution can't be guaranteed - only propositions, that it might be tried to do if original install of navcore is present. And once more time - if it is present, but packed into *.ttpkg for install MyDriveConnect or stand-alone tool for this purpose - no chance to install it, as impossible to create/modify *.ttpkg - for security reason.

Hence - nobody can be sure if your purchases will help further with this particular device. Alas...

PS You can read thread about Mazda NB1 - similar device, but original navcore can be downloaded from tt-server (link is known for several navcores). Thus it works...
