No it's not ruined - use Tomtom home to remove everything on your Tomtom and then update it - & keep updating until no more updates are available.
Then disconnect from TT home & turn off home. Start up your Tomtom (let it boot up) & then reconnect to PC.
Add the map & postcode file from this thread -

Use Albert's activation tool from here -

First patch the ttsystem file on your Tomtom, then activate the map.
Disconnect from PC & start up your Tomtom - should all work now.

Hi mister,

No not messed up - just need to patch the ttsystem file on your Tomtom & then to activate the map.

Is the map working now ?
What are the version numbers of your map & the Navcore ?

[mister-t]

[mister-t]

The 2 postcode files go into a folder named ' zip '.

Any chance of knowing how you got it going as a point of reference mate

[mister-t]

the easy activator tool seemed to do the trick with the map problem
then i just used the bbs tools for everything else,lane guidance works
speed cameras work a treat,i dont use iq routes as i drive a hgv,and it tries to send you down some really strange short cuts.now if only tom tom did maps for hgv's then that would be a dream.but all in all well pleased its working again,thanks to all the help on here

They do :respect-054:, but I'm not sure if it will work on a OneXL - it does work on the *20 & *30 units

I haven't used it, but a member on another forum is now using it on his Go530.
Try the navcore_8.070.9589.gox20.cab or navcore_8.070.9589.go530-go730-go930.cab
& the map on there is Western_-_Central_Europe_TRUCK_815.2112 which is in 16 parts - so I'm guessing it will be close to 2gb

thanks for the links russell1,but at 2gig thats more or less the memory in my satnav,i think ill go price up the go530,to be honest with you mate the lane guidance aint that great,its ok on motorways,but i deliver a lot around london,now lane guidance for citys would be ideal
thanks again for everything
