As for navcore I found that in the last time TT release different bootloder version. About the last version I want to make with the help of forum poster a list of last BL version and teh result of test on different TT product.

I start with my test on TT ONE V6. I will fill in the table with result of other tests.

The recogniton (on TT ONE) of SDHC started with BL 5.5012

------------------- Special version (downgrade)
Theese versions are special versions to relaod a previous version of a bootloader with an high number than original to fix problem for some bootloader also if it's updated (ex. 5.5256 for TT One with internal memory)
The bootloader has a number just a few higher than, to enable the update also the contents it's of a previous version.

DON'T CHANGE YOUR BOOTLOADER WITHOUT REASON IF IT ALREADY WORKS WELL"
THIS OPERATION IS RISKY AND CAN BREAK DOWN YOUR UNIT. ALSO IT'S NOT REVERSIBLE (YOU CANNOT GO BACK OLD VERSION).
PLEASE CHECK BEFORE TO START THAT THE BATTERY CHARGE IS FULL (IF IT ISN?T FULL PLEASE CHARGE TT BEFORE TO START)

To update the bootloader simply copy the file named system to the root of your internal memory/or SD/or HD of TT then switch off and reboot. If you want to use a SDHC (> 2GB) on device that hasn't a native recognition of it (ex. TT ONE) please update the BL before to use the SD > 2GB.

At the end of BL upgrade check in TTGO.BIF that bootloader string reflect that real version of BL. Otherwise edit it.

Does anybody have an experience with bootloader at TT 910?

boot 5.5105 in XL OK.....navc.8.201 OK ...:thanks::wave:

5.5105 woks fine on Rider 1 with 8GB SDHC

Tested on TT ONE original 4GB SDHC ( OK )

5.5012 - TT ONE original
5.5022 - TT ONE original
5.5105 - TT ONE original

Switching from original BL (4.???) to 5.5012 I found also:

-Faster satellite tracking
-Increased sensibility (now my ONE is able to fix satellite position inside home 2 meters from window!)
-Fixed on/off problem. (The ONE original's power-on button is protruding, so it was very usual find the unit fully discharged. Now you must push the power-on button for 2/3 seconds.)

ok got a Go 700 with Navcore 8.051 but my BL is a 5.4201 how to update do some 5.5 version guys?

found it :)

I have a GO700 as well, upgraded from a 5.4 version to 5.5022.
Best difference is incredible startup speed (only the first time takes very long).

After pressing the on button the device is ready after 2-5 seconds.

Where can I find the link for bootloader 5.5105?

My TT910 still has B/L 4.8600 running navocore 8.02 and its running ok, not sure if it matter updating the bootloader unless its to recognise sd cards. On the TT910 we don't have that problem.

Can anyone tell the difference between 5.5022 and 5.5105?

Peter (Holland)

My TT910 still has B/L 4.8600 running navocore 8.02 and its running ok, not sure if it matter updating the bootloader unless its to recognise sd cards.

I also have B/L 4.86 and it works fine on my 910 with 8.011. But I am interesting how newer bootloader could influence (if any) performance of 910?
For statistics
It was reported that B/L 5.5105 works “fine with navcore 8.051 or less” at TT 910.

My config is : TT GO 720 - Navcore V 0811 - western_and_central europe V 810

bootloader v 5.5022 (system is dated 7th july 2008) works fine better than older v 5.5012 with a lot of bugs (dated 31 march 2008).

Now it's possible to read/write SDHC class 6 until 16 Go with no problems when writing over the 4 Go barrier if the sdhc card is inserted in the slot as a system card bootable.

Also possible when SDHC card system bootable in the slot to connect to the PC via Usb and tomtom home and choose which memory to update (internal memory or sdhc memory).
This was not possible with bootloader v .55012 which only permitted to update in this situation the internal memory.

fully tested with a Transcend SDHC class 6 capacity 8 Go
after updating bootloader v 5.5012.

Don't forget also to modify your's ttgo.bif/ttgo.bak with this line

BootLoaderVersion=55022 (instead of 55012)

To update the bootloader simply copy the file named system to the root of your internal memory then switch off and reboot.

THIS OPERATION IS RISKY AND CAN BREAK DOWN YOUR UNIT. ALSO IT'S NOT REVERSIBLE.

The latest bootloader v.5.5105 is not intended for TT Go x20, Go x30 but for future TT Go x40. No need to use it, Go x40 using micro sdhc card as I know and not SD/SDHC cards.

Have fun and reports yours tests

For TT noobs like me, after you downloaded the bootloader and maybe unzipped it, it would end with system5.5022. Rename that to just system and put in your root folder, otherwise it doesn't work. HTH.

Here similar good news for the TomTom one V2 (with SD slot and internal memory):

5.5012 working fine

5.5105 workinf fine.

On Original Tom Tom One (oldest one around): 5.5012 working fine as well. The newest one I have not tried yet (It is not my device, that's why).

TOMTOM one V1
5.5105 work

tomtom 500
5.5105 works fine

TomTom ONE V4 (with internal memory): don`t read at same time internal and Sd memory.
Only one of them. Why? I Can`t put Iberia in internal memory and WCE in a SD card. Please, any idea?

my config
tt910 = Bootloader_5.5010 = map v810.1907 = app 8011.9373

all seems ok so far but still under test will report more later

Why?
I have a GO910 and upgraded from original to 55012 and now to 55022 from the link at the first post on this page.
I did the cahnge you say, but when i check the file after a restart, it goes back to say 55012.
I've tried to delete the .bif, .bak and .ori set and it creates a new .bif saying 55012... so the 55022 it's not recognised or what?:confused:

Hi! My GO 720/740emu work well with 8.2 Navcore and 5.5105 Bootloader but it read/write the 8GB SDHC card only if I add into the SD card SE ttsystem and version.txt files

TTUser, in another post, suggest me to re-install 5.5022 Bootloader but my GO 720/740emu does not accept the old 5.022 and it have always 5.5105.

I try also to Clear the Flash Memory with the files "1" + "ttn" to Clear Flash, repeating one, two, three, for, five, etc... but 5.051 does not delete.

How can I to restore 5.5022 Bootloader, please? I have only the Clear Flash for GO 510-710. Have you the correct files to Clear Flash "1" and "ttn" for GO 720 (or have I to use an Clear Flash for GO730 or GO 740?... Have you this?)

Thanks

i have GO 710 with Navcore V 0811 - western_and_central europe V 810

just updated bootloader from 4.8600 to 5.5022

everthing is okay, but the info screen keeps displaying the bootloader version 4.8600. i did reset and hold power button and the bootloader version 5.5022 is displayed correct.

it seems like my changes to ttgo.bif/ttgo.bak are overwritten each time i start.

can someone explain what ist the background of: ttgo.bif/ttgo.bak/ttgo.ori

also my changes to application version are always changed back to 8011.

thanks

Check in root about SYSTEM & SYSTEM1 file. delete it.

Check the TT GO.BIF. Should be a wrong version on it.

As far as I know, you can NOT go back to the older one. It's be warned everywhere including in post#1.

Check the TT GO.BIF. Should be a wrong version on it.

changing version in ttgo.bif does not have an effect. changes are rolled back
after TT is booted.


any idea?

I did it but as happen toTungstenE2, in the info screen it keeps on say 55012 no matter if I change it in .bif .ori and .bak, next time I turn it on it says 55012.
I have both system and system1 deleted from root after the upgrade.
I surely did upgrade the bootloader 'cos when I inserted the system file in root (55022 version), when rebooted it said to wait in different languages.
No big deal but I was wondering why .:wave:

No big deal but I was wondering why .:wave:

there is some influence.

the application version is also rolled back. it keeps the record of 8011,
so i guess that TTH will see that i do not run the correct version on my TTR as the official version fpr TTR is 7540.

TTUser!!!, please?... :wave: Can you help me, kindly? :thanks:I have just tried to format the GO 720 and reinstall the original Backup with Navcore 7xx. I have also cleared the Flash Memory with the original Clear Flash from TomTom site.

But the BootLoader DO NOT RETURN BACK from 5.5105 and also the old original Navcore 7xx works with 5.5051. Help me, please! I want to install 5.5022...

Thanks for help.

Useful for All Users!
P.S. It is strange... Also the old Navcore 7xx recognizes well my 8GB SDHC card but only if I copy in it the Navcore 7xx ttsystem and the file Version.txt of SE_TTUser files... Boh!...

I know not how many someone already write that you never go back to a older BL :confused: you can clearflash it 1000 times or something and it would never works

Version.txt have absolute nothing to do with something, it start only the ttgo.bak Creation

Version.txt have absolute nothing to do with something, it start only the ttgo.bak CreationExactly, TTUser! I know!
But my GO see and read-write the maps into 8GB SDHC card (Transcend) only if I have previously inserted "Version.txt" AND the "ttsystem" of the same Navocore (7xx or 8xx) existing in 2GB INTERNAL.
Otherwise, the GO 720/730emu (or 720/740emu) hangs at Logo Startup. (freeze).
I am sure of this because I'm always obliged (after I upgraded Navcore) or my GO does not reads the card and freeze...
Boh! :oops2:

I see some people have changed the boot loader and as pointed out by TTuser amongst others found out the hard way you cannot go back to your old version.

I understand the BL is like the Bios in a PC ie it is the file that gets everything going.

Nowadays information is stored in some sort of Flash memory.

I seem to remember an old trick to clear flash memory was to put the memory into a freezer for a couple of hours.

The low temperatures caused the memory capacitors to lose their charge effectively clearing the memory. Any new information can then be stored in the flash memory.

Now this, if it is a viable solution, might clear other info like your 8 digit code I do not know.

Does anyone else know more about this than I do?

............... Deleting duplicate post

I had a great idea :excited: (or is it stupid?... :LoL: ):

I will try to open the file "system" of Bootloader 5.5105 with an Hex-Editor and try to change the internal string "5.5022" to --> "5.5106". In this mode the TomTom Flash EEprom sees a new Bootloader version and install but, instead, is it an Bootloader more old (5.5022).

Can will it to function?... Or... can I to damage forever the Flash?...
Someone can to suggest a more safe method to edit the file "system" to cheat the EEPROM without make a damage?

Thanks

boot version is stored in (card/device) \flash\sysfile\bootver < actual file

you can edit bootver with notepad to correct version ( test it first )

only if you have a Device with Flashmountproblem is it on this Place
who mean really change a Number help:confused::hehe:

as detailed in pic

eg, 55022

also change in .bif .bak .ori

I had a great idea (or is it stupid?...): I will try to open the file "system" of Bootloader 5.5105 with an Hex-Editor and try to change the internal string "5.5022" to --> "5.5106". In this mode the TomTom Flash EEprom sees a new Bootloader version and install but, instead, is it an Bootloader more old (5.5022).I have today tried... The boot fails and TTGO do not recognizes INTERNAL and EXTERNAL cards. Fortunately, the TTGO re-works well with removing the modified "system" file. Bootloader into Flash EEprom is alway 5.5105 version. :angry:

Can will it to function?... Or... can I to damage forever the Flash?... ThanksDoes not makes damages... does not makes damages...

Knows someone, kindly, a good Link to download the new ClearFlash x30 or x40 from TomTom Site? I suspect tath the "ttn" ClearFlash I have is obsolete. With x20, infact, the "ttn" ClearFlash file deletes all data from the Flash: code maps, my name, preferences, hour, etc. but with 5.051 and 8.2 does not removes. Thanks

and what mean you what the clearflash should do:confused:

If you UPDATE the BOOTLOADER to a NEWER VERSION you canNOT go back to an older version. It does not matter what you try, changing ttgo.bif, ttgo.bak, version.txt, clearflash or whatever you come up with.
I also do not see why you first update the version of your bootloader and then lateron decide again that you want to go back to an older version. Why did you update then in the first place? If a newer bootloader is giving you problems, then just wait for a newer version to come along and update the bootloader again and hope for the best.
Fiddling around with your ttsystem file is not only stupid, but also dangerous because if it does update the bootloader again (which is not going to happen anyway) it might screw up your bootloader because it is not cosistent anymore.
Once again: THERE IS NO WAY TO GO BACK!

One last remark it is a good idea to add a checksum on the ttsystem files. So do a checksum on the file before uploading it to this website and copy the number and paste it here too. Then people whom have downloaded the file copy it to there SD-card or internal memory of their TomTom devices and then again run a checksum and check the number it gives with the number this website gives for the same file. This makes sure that the file ttsystem file which is going to update your bootloader is 100% good and that the new bootloader will be updated succesfully (if there is no power problem, etc.). Normal bios update programs also first perform a checksum on there new bios update files to make sure they are not corrupt.

Hi all, I have a go720 running on 5.4106. I am a newbie & apart from SD support, is there much difference between bootloaders?

Is there somewhere that lists the differences/changes in the later releases of bootloaders?

not totaly true

QUOTE

If you UPDATE the BOOTLOADER to a NEWER VERSION you can NOT go back to an older version.

i have 4 SD cards with different versions of tomtom on them

when you boot with different card you can see that the flash file for that card loads, and the version of the cards have not changed !!!

BUT if i change back a version I put the write protect tab to on first time i boot that card

With mdoel with flash (ex. TT ONE) it's impossible to go back to older version (the bootloader is stored into internal flash).

Internal flash it's a separate chip than flash internal memory (512MB or 1GB for TT ONE).

With TT without flash chip (ex. GOx10 like GO510) the flash bootloader is stored into Flash folder.
In this way it's possible to go back if you substitute the BL with old version in Flash folder.

The best universal bootloader for any TT now is 5.5022.

if you want 5.5105 you can still get it
download navcore basepack8.201 [dont have to use the navcore if you dont want to]
rename system5.5105 into system

Ref Bovirus comments above does anyone know if the old GO700 with the 2.5Gb hard drive has a sperate flash memory chip or is it stored in "normal" flash memory like the x10series??

Thanks in advance for your help,

Look forward to a reply from the experts

I have a TT One XL and bootloader 5.5011 which is OK for 4Gb Class 6 (high speed) SDHC. Is a change to 5.5022 worth it?

I hope to be clear.

The problem about 5,5105 is that it's optimize for gox40/MicroSD and for this reason it recognize better MircoSD than SD. But with MicroSD works fine.

The 5.5022 i's thr best one because recognize both SD and MicroSD. It recognize 4/8/16GB. It works fine in writing with SD over 4GB (now you can have 2 or 4GB but if you want to use tomorrow a 8GB the BL it's already ready).

Ok I understand.

With mdoel with flash (ex. TT ONE) it's impossible to go back to older version (the bootloader is stored into internal flash). Internal flash it's a separate chip than flash internal memory (512MB or 1GB for TT ONE).OK and thanks, BoVirus, TTUser, Vincentn1981 and other all friends.
I think, however, tath exist a software to write or re-write all writeable chips. I make this, for example, tath I have upgraded with success the Firmware of a my DVD-DivX reader (died) using a Serial Cable. Idem to force the Firmware Downgrade of my Belkin Wi-Fi Router, using Terminal of Mac OS X and "tftp" command, during the boot of Router and LED flashing). I have also activated the Firewire Input of my Camera Canon, in Binary mode.

I use a trick to enter in Service mode with my Sony TV, using the Remote... or to reset the internal Bios of my printer Canon IP5300 and TomTom manifacturer have, certainly:
1) a Software to obtain the rewriting of the Bootloader Chip, from USB or they using a Linux Console and sending Binary strings, etc...
OR
2) have some TRICKs (ex.: push xx time the Power buttom | Press the Reset five time associated with Power and mantain xx seconds, release only Power button and press three five, etc...)
to enter in Service mode and make Developer or repair functions.

I presuppose... Maybe I wrong... :triodance: I hope tath exist an ex TT technician, very kind and friendly..., with this Service infos...

--------------------------------------------------------------
sure - BL 5.5022 is the best for full reading/writing/using TomTom Home for sd/sdhc 4/8/16 Go
------------------------------------------------------------

tested tomtom go 500 with 5.5022.
works fine and 4GB SDHC works now :)

And with 5.5022 (sugegsted) the BL it's already ready for 8GB SDHC.

With 5.5012 if you use a 8GBSDHC when you connect the TT to the PC, the pc say "unformatted memory". With 5.5022 the pc recognzie 8GB SDHC.

Is posible downgrade bootloader? clear flash?

1° / no
2°/ clearflash has not any utility

it's possible use TT_Bootloader_5.5022.zip on tomtom ONE XL ..? I don't know version of this ONE ...

I test TT One V3 with bootloader 5.5105 but dont work corectly with SDHC 4GB class 6 card. TT One lock any function, repair only reset. but only to eny minute. i put back SD card and work coretly :-(

tested ok
5.5022 - one 2ª v4
5.5022 - go710
5.5022 - rider1

now it's possible SDHC 4G

Hi Could you upload the 5.5022 Bootloader again. The zip file seems to be corrupt.
Thanks

it's possible use TT_Bootloader_5.5022.zip on tomtom ONE XL ..? I don't know version of this ONE ...

Yes, works fine with 8GB SDHC card.

The file is damaged. I will riupload it.

Thanks for assistance here. I can report BL 5.5022 working well on GO 720 with Navcore 8.010:good2::good2: and can now read/write access an 8GB SDHC card which was not possible with earlier bootloader 5.4x.

Hello,

I have a TT ONE V3 (SD slot). Will I be able to use a 4/8/16 GB SDHC Card using 5.5022 BL? Has someone tried it?

Thanks.

Please read the first post and the other.
Tested on TT One V3 e V6 with 4GB/8GB. OK.

Sorry, I read everything but only saw something about V3 not specifying capacity. Thanks bovirus :)

Running 16gb card with BL 5.5022 on a 920. Great!

Although this thread suggests otherwise, 5.5105 is working fine for me on my Go 710. I have tested it with Transcend 2Gb and 4Gb SD and Transcend 16Gb SDHC class 6 card. All work fine.

I have bought a SDHC 4GB TakeMS Class6 for my TomTom ONE (v3), I installed BL 5.5022 (copied system file to old SD and rebooted). The new SDHC card seems to be working fine right now on the road, but when I connect my ONE to computer, the unit usually hangs when writing some files to the SD card and I have to reset it :oops2:. Is this normal? People use card readers to solve this or this shouldn't be happening at all?

:ilove:

The 5.5105 was removed not because had problems but because it optimized for MicrOSD (and should have some problem with standard SD).

The 5.5022 has the same feature but it's compatible with SD & MicroSD.

Very curious which problems appear with SD....
I am running it on my TT One v2 (with SD) and no problem at all..... also so far haven't read anything of anyone with problem concerning this 5.5105, but ofcourse I have not read all topics.

Hi, Can someone re-up bootloader 5.5022 ? thx

Mrted: See following link:
http://www.ipmart-forum.com/showpost.php?p=2236501&postcount=113

Tested both 5.5015 & 5.022 on a TomTom One 3rd Edition and both worked fine, running Navcore 8.051(9404).

they are convinced that TTUser knows like " to reset and/or delete" the System (Bootloader) with Linux, but not sò because it does not want to say it to us. SURE E' POSSIBLE TO RESTORE A BOOTLOADER " PRECEDENCE".

I have entered in the S.O of the TomTom with TTConsole, but I do not succeed to enter in the flash mem because I do not know the same one. I am trying and at the end I will succeed.

TTUser you know like DOWNGRADARE the system (bootloader), but you do not say to us.
Hello to all

TTUser you know like DOWNGRADE the system (bootloader), but you do not say to us...Dear Italian friend... you has to pay a lot of attention around this arguments... :punish:
TTUser is a Great Men. Knows it or knows not it the NC system?... This is the question!

The knowledge of Bootloader... modifies also... the HW. Easy to understand? :snakeman: In US and Europe it is lawless! :snakeman:
I think that TTUser has the know-how... but it don't says. :exactly: :angry:

:punish: The solution is in some CCCP and China sites. You can to translate: Bootloader, System, Disassemble, Navigator, etc. from English to Russian; to add some other words (es: TT or GO or TomTom, etc.) and searching with Google or... not Google?... :finga:

Good luck!

Is it ok to install bootlaoder 5.5022 on a One 4th edition (hammerhead chip) ?
Or is it only for Sirf3 devices ?

I have it on my Classic Go which is a sirf2 device. I have a 16gb card working fine.

Hi Fellas

Question: Do i have to run the bootloader from a formated SD or can i join it into the same SD who has maps and navcore ??.


Thnx to all zerebede:wave::ilove:

Sorry, double post, please delete this one

I just changed the existing 'system' file for the new one and rebooted with a pin in the hole.

Thnx @KenBruce

Done it. GO710 & GO920 running 5.5022 and everything ok. I was allready running 4GB micro SD cards on 5.5012, so i`ll try 8 & 16GB later then i let you all know.


:thanks: zerebede

boot 5.5105 works on TT One v4

@KenBruce
You push reset right after updating the bootloader?? Humm, that's tricky, better let it update completely. Nothing will get damaged by that, while pressing reset at the wrong time does!

Just replace the current 'system' file (after having made a backup of it) with the new downloaded one. Run a md5sum check on the 'system' file downloaded and the same file copied to your sd-card/internal memory of your tomtom, just to make sure it is exactly the right file and it is not corrupt.

After having copied the file switch on your Tom Tom device and let it boot. When it is finished booting and starts to complain about the map or something like that, switch off the Tom Tom and replace the 'system' file with the original one.

It would be great if the topic starter added the md5sum check file to the first post, so everybody is sure they copied the 'system' file without any errors. (a normal BIOS update program also first preforms a hash check on the new bios file).

Hi fellas
I`ve just copied the system file into the SD and then just turn it off and on. I didn`t cheksum it, i know it´s risky but everythig`s ok. As the 5.5012, still not working with TRANSCEND SD 4 GB, and still have no problem with the 4 GB MICRO SD`s.


Take care zerebede:wave:

@vincentn1981

Sorry, you misunderstood my meaning. I meant I just copied the new 'system' file (updated?) into the root folder. Then removed USB connection with computer as per normal and let TT finish booting up and switched off. THEN stuck pin in the hole and switched on.

Open very first post of this thread.
Find version which you like.
Download the archive with this version at your computer.
Unpack the archive and you woild have a file system.
Copy this file to the root of you TT.
Switch on TT let it booted don't interrupt.

Enjoy but remember you could never return back you old bootloader or any other bootloader with version lower than you installed.

With a cracked navcore that`s normal, and you just avoid it erasing the file poweroff from your root card. But then you will have more battery consumption because TT never dies:hehe: (still allways sleeping in standby).


:good2:zerebede

I don't have the file "poweroff"
Where to find this file?
Sorry for my noob

New bootloader 5.5106 works fine on my GO510.

KeysGuy

I don't have the file "poweroff"
Where to find this file?
Sorry for my noob

If is not in your card root, the delay means that your TT is running on (save ram mode if you have a folder noFlash in your card). The poweroff is inside the zip folder switchfiles. Copying poweroff into root your TT really goes off (more time to wake up).

PS: I`m not sure if poweroff work on nav 8051

IMPORTANT WARNING for TomTom users that have a perfect Bootloader 5.5022!!!

I found that 5.5105 Bootloader, randomly, it causes many File System errors!!!
Have you delve into this doubt with new 5.5106 Bootloader????....
You can note this problem:
a) only if GO hangs or
b) if you makes a Scandisk ALL (in Winzozz) or Disk Utility with "Repair or Verify Disk" (in Mac OS X).

If also the new 5.5106 Bootloader have the same bug of 5.5105, TomTom can freeze at startup (during boot TomTom always writes some files...) or unexpected TomTom hangs during navigation (ex: changing the night-day display or some preferences, etc...)

Important: My GO 720 with NC 8.051 & BL 5.5022 never creates errors!
The GO 720 of my sister, with NC 8.051 & BL 5.5105 yes.

To verify:
You can force the Go with BL 5.5105 (or with 5.5106) to make errors, copying many POI (100 ca.) into the Device and/or into the SD/SDHC card; then deleting they; then emptying the Trash; then newly copying POI into the same or another map, ... and verifying with Scandisk ALL (in Win) or with Disk Utility (in Mac)

:thanks:

You ensure TT will be able to write at addresses over 4GB on the SDHC card. Older versions often could read high addresses on SDHC cards but writing to them was another matter. Since the file system is FAT32 for SDHC, TT system can update/write a file anywhere on the SDHC card.

Hi

ied 5022 version. BUt it keeps telling me the file is currupt. So I have DLed 5015 instead.

so far it is working well.

reason I installed 5.5112 is I read a few posts on the different forums that people reported this version has cured the rebooting or restarting ( powering on by itself problem )

I guess time will tell if it really cures the problem. I will report back if the problem continues.

yes I definitely agree with that.... DONT change it unless you are having problems with SDHC cards - the bootloader can only be changed with a newer version you CANT go back & if you mess it up there's a good chance your device will RIP

You have to decompress the file (suggested 5.5122).
Put the SYSTEM file into root of internal (or SD( memory.

Switch off and power on the TT.
After few second start a msg "Please wait" and after that the TT reboot.

If the msg "please wait" doesn't appera it means that you don't post teh right fiel in the root.

I have follow this procedure and put SYSTEM (downloaded from dlc posted by BiggerDave) into the internal memory root (i have only internal) ...but system is not updated.

i will try again with 5.5122 (instead of 5.5112)

That if the TomTom does not show the new bootloader version that you should edit the ttgo.bif file. This is no use, because it will everytime be newly made at the statup of the device. So depending on what you have running:

Normal navcore: delete the ttgo.bif file.
Se Navcore version: edit the ttgo.bak file or better delete the ttgo.bak file and make a new version.txt file with the right values in it, after a start-up and shut down the new ttgo.bak file be created and the ttgo.bif file will be updated as well.

Furhtermore I one time suggested to add also the md5sum so people can be sure that after the copied the system file to there SD-card that it is exactely the same as the one which is here on the forum, so during copying and downloading nothing went wrong, which could possibly destroy the system file and after that destroy the TomTom. Or is the TomTom device before isntalling the system file performing an eternal check if the file is not corrupt, I do not think so....

ok now it works, the biggerdave version is not correct

Thanks for pointing this out: http://www.ipmart-forum.com/showpost.php?p=2559096&postcount=162 has revised link

I take the new bootloaders only from original .cab files from new navcores on tomtom site...

File "system" extracted directly from there to the sd and/or internal memory...
Example...the new 5.5122 bootloader is included in original & official navcores 8.310 (for x40) and 8.410 (for ONE and ONE-XL(s) series)

In this way NO problem of file corruption, NO anonymous files, NO broken links , NO lottery's numbers for bootloaders and mystic legends on russian, spanish, chinese or romanian sites!

Can somebody tell me what the difference is between BL 5.5112 and BL 5.5122?
Or is it just a typo?

I think that's a typo (unless there IS a new 5.5122) ????

Bugger it; these bootloaders are doing my head in! All my links being removed.

With the latest bootloader (5.5122) I've experienced strange issues with my Tomtom 30series 2gb internal memory...slow transfer with PC (could it be due to bootloader?) and when I connect to computer, many times Windows warns me that there may be file system errors.
Am I the only one?

Same problem. Solve with a backup - sd reformat - restore

Is bootloader 5.5122 good for TT one v3? Has anyone out there tested it pls...

BL 5.5122 is ok in my ONE 3Thrd. Edition V6

:ilove:

The ONLY time you need one of the newer bootloaders is if you want to run an SDHC card...............................otherwise FORGET IT!

I thought so till I found out that navcore 8.204 runs only on newer bootloader, as example on 5.5022 ; on my old tomtom one the bootloader was 5.3026, so in this case an upgrade is really necessary.

Is bootloader 5.5122 good for TT one v3? Has anyone out there tested it pls...

i have it on one v3, works without any problem;)

Can anyone using 5.5122 (or 5.5112) AND bluetooth services such as Traffic on an x20 series tell me if it has cured the crashing/rebooting problem?
I don't want to install one of these unnecessarily if it doesn't. I have 5.5106 at moment.

I have follow this procedure and put SYSTEM (downloaded from dlc posted by BiggerDave) into the internal memory root (i have only internal) ...but system is not updated.

i will try again with 5.5122 (instead of 5.5112)

You misunderstood my post.
I have BT working but when it is working if it has trouble downloading data it causes a reboot. Usually when the phone signal is bad. It does seem better now I have loaded 5.5112. It doesn't reboot so often.

Hello, BL 5.5112 it's OK for TomTom One V1.:dance:

Hello,

Anyone installed BL 5.5122 on TomTom One V1 ?

No problem on any TT One (V1/V2/V3).

I repetead this ton of time. The BL works fine on ANY MODEL.

There isn't any incompatibility of a specific version of BL with a specific TT Model.

Anybody problem with the Bootloader 5.5122 and Bluetooth on the TTONE V1?

Thanks for that but bootloader 5.5106 is not in your list-perhaps you can add it for completeness.

Please use a newer version (5.5122) than 5.5106.

Please use a newer version (5.5122) than 5.5106.

One would think he has a reason for wanting 5.5106. Take his suggestion and add it to your list!!

The reason to have bootloader newer than the origina are:

- Use new Navcore (like 8.204 / 8.410)
- use SD > 2GB (SDHC)

But if you need one of theese two features it's better to use 5.5122 (newer) than 5.5106 (older) because (as I wrote in first post) 5.5122 fixed some problem of prevuious version (included 5.5106).

In other way there isn't any reason to use 5.5106 than 5.5122 (if you need more efature ot's better to use teh alst version. If you don't need theese two features you should update the BL.

If you ahve already 5.5106 in TT there is no sense to have the same copy as file. You cannot update it with same version.

Which is it, my friend. In post 5 you say 5.5122. Now you are saying 5.5112.

It's a small error. I was intend the last version (5.5122). Now it's right.

It's a small error. I was intend the last version (5.5122). Now it's right.

Thanx for the correction. Since you are so keen on 5.5122, why do you bother to have 9 others listed on your thread?

http://www.ipmart-forum.com/showthre...ght=bootloader

Greets ALL esp. bovirus for having the list & aluks for inspiring the Merge/Move.

Hopefully bovirus will continue to maintain this Thread, updating as often as possible, tracking changes, etc...

If you have issues which resolve themselves after new BootLoader is installed, let us know here.

aluks has provided a good example of what did/not work, what changed & versions used.

With last bootloader (5.5122) I experienced big problems about writing on the internal memory of my one 30series. (9 hours to restore a full 2GB backup).
No matter what you do, tomtom refuses to write in the memory for more than 5 seconds...then it waits 50 seconds without doing anything....then it writes again for 5 seconds...and so on.

I tried everything Windows, Linux, Mac...reformatted, repartitioned, etc...also a lot of file system errors occured.
I was almost ready to contact tomtom support when the new navcore has been released.
Luckily, new bootloader seems to have fixed my problem...so, i know it's a repeated lessons but..."DON'T CHANGE YOUR BOOTLOADER WITHOUT REASON IF IT ALREADY WORKS WELL"; there are no real advantages in upgrading bootloader, but there are lot of disadvantages instead (the bigger one is to brick your tomtom).

You wrote that the new Navcore fixes the problem.

But if the BL remain the same (which version of Navcore do you use?) probably the problem was in teh Navcore and not in the BL.

Could you report more detail about current version of BL / Navcore?

@aluks

Is not true that there are real advantages to upgrade the BL.

With old BL you cannt use SDHC.
With some not recent BL you can have problem with Navcore 8.402/8.410.

As you can see you had some problems (that require more investigations) but you can cehck in previous post that really the problem with BL are just a few vs. tenths of positive feedbacks.

Of course the main rule DON't CHANGE IF YOU DON'T NEED it's true.

But after that, if someone alraedy verified that a version of BL works fine on specifci version of TT HW (this is the focus of this post) other users can reduce a lot the risks (of course with a full battery you reduce the risks)

I wrote that the new BL fixed my problems (not navcore) because BL controls also the way Windows (or any other OS) access the memory.

I have no problems with navcores (there's no navcores if the memory is empty), I have problems writing INSIDE THE INTERNAL MEMORY (it's the only memory, since 30series has no SD slot).
Windows/Linux/Macintosh were not able to write the internal memory in the proper way. It usually took me 9 HOURS to copy my 2gb map inside my one.

And I had too many file system errors reported by Windows, as soon as the device got connected. Formatted, repartitioned, no way to get rid of these problems....because the BL was the problem with my device.

This is what I'm talking about:

Windows recognize the device FS as faulty about 3 times on 5 (I've always used the secure unplugging of USB device)

I think it's not a coincidence that my problems turned up when I upgraded to 5.5122 (from my good working 5.5022) and these problems came away today, when I upgraded to 5.5128.
To be honest, I was waiting a new bootloader, just to verify my thoughts, since we can't downgrade.
I started to think that my problems were "Bootloader related", after I saw that someone reported many filesystem errors after upgrading to a newer bootloader (don't remember which one).

With this new BL, navcore 8.410 doesn't work anymore in my device, so I'll use the 8.412...but this is the least pain, I'm quite happy today I don't have to send my tomtom to Holland.

Does anybody has experience with the following combination
RIDER II plus Navcore 8.412 plus BL 5.5128

Actually i use Navcore 8.412 but with BL 5.5022.
It works fine, but unfortunately the Rider will not be recognized as USB-Device from the PC any more. I have to put out the sd-card to have access.

This was, since I used the empty file TTPnPD to avoid the RDS/TMC functionality.

Hi all!

I have a TTone V2 (4N00.003 - it's a V2, right?), with navcore 8.410, bootloader 5.5106, everything works fine except Bluetooth keeping unsatable when paired to my cellphone.
I ask to all TT experts, do you think this is a bootloader problem? If I flash it to 5.5128 will it solve the problem?

thanks

@PSJFLA

Thanks for the feedback. A previous user said that on GO 300 doesn't works with BL 5.5128 and Nacore 4.2xx.

Il will check again.

@SL00.

Try to update at BL 5.5122.
But I'm not sure that the problem reported depnd by BL. I think that depend by Navcore sw and switches.

bl 5.5128 work VERY FINE with ONEv1-2 version 6-7-8-8.410-8.412 i have test it:egdance:

BlueTooth has never been stable on a TTOne, I have had most bootloaders running on my TTOne V2 (with SD) and BT always gave problems. Sometimes it pairs with my phone(s) Nokia N70, Alacatel C701, Sony K330, Nokia 5800... But when you start using it the tomtom freezes or simply the sound freezes. But in most cases it already frooze while searching for a BT device.

BTW:
5.5128 works flawless on a TTOne V2 (with SD)
Though I haven't noticed any differences yet..... So ofcourse;
if your system works, there's no need to update

my one (i think it's a v2) never frezed activating bluetooth, when using this "unoficial" navcores v8, but when active, a few seconds after, it disconnets and connects, staying like this in an infinite cycle, until I switch it off in the preferences or cellphone menu.

i wonder if 5.5128 is a bomb
i have two go710, one with 5.5128 the other with the previous bootloader
i have reported bugs with 5.5128 and 8.320 also 8.412
for instance after a while on 8.320 and 8.412, the device doesn't ask to connect with the pc, it does it automatically
and often the spin in the gps properties stops to turn
whereas the device who hasn't got 5.5128 seems to work properly with 8.320 and 8.412

Does anyone know if bootloader 5.5128 should enable a One XL to read a 16 GB SDHC card? I upgraded my bootloader, but the unit still cannot read a 16 GB card. Is this unusual?

format it at fat32 32K:goodluck:

Any one here has XL like mine ?
witch bootloader version do you think it's the best one to run on my device with nc 8.4xx emulated to XL IQ routes ?

thanks

Symply. Please read the first post. 5.5122.

I've just upgraded my XL from bl 5.5011 to 5.5112 (as sugested here)
everything worked flawlessly like fefore (using nc 8.412)
I decided to test with the original updated nc and data it had when I got it, and everything worked perfectly, however there were two things i noticed after BL upgrade:
format of internal memory - to slow
moving / copyig files from pc to internal memory - waaaay to long! it doesn't do it like a regular usb pendrive or SD card does. It copyes a little, waits a while staying idle, then back to copy process and waiting, untill all is done. It took me 1h+ to copy only 220 MB to internal memory
could this be a bootloader related issue?

thanks

It's taking me hours just to copy 500 mb to internal memory of my XL (V9) after upgrading to bootloader 5.5112. whatever it is FAT or FAT32 it takes waaaaay to long to copy files to internal memory

Anyone experienced the same problem?

Thank you for your reply. The card is formatted at FAT32. My Tomtom simply refuses to read it and freezes up immediately.

Sometimes windows does not format SD cards correctly, I suggest you format the card using a program from, either Sony or Panasonic, from memory, a google search should help you. I just am unable to find it on my computer at present. If you have any problem let me know and I will look harder!!

Thank you for the advice. I just tried the Panasonic formatter. It appears I have a defective SD card. When I tried to format with Windows, I could no longer edit or write to the card. The Panasonic formatter tells me the write-protection is on, no matter in which position I have the switch.

But now I have the Panasonic software, and I'm sure it will come in handy.

Just a tip which might work. For sure it helped me several times with such a "write-protected SD".
Place it in a photo camera, tell the photo camera to format it....
After this in all my cases the SD worked again, and write protect was gone.

EDIT: awsom job u do @ this forum! Thanx alot!

The new official BL for navcore 8.350 is the 5.5120

It works on x20, x30 and x40 series.

HI,

Thank you all for keeping TT BL info up to date. I have a few issues here which I think by upgrading my TT BL may resolve it, but not sure. Would really appreciate any feedback from you all.

I kinda have mine TT1 v2 updated, but also ran into some issues... I've updated to the following settings:

App 8.410 OS:286217 GPS v1.20 Boot 5.3029 Mapv825.2157 and 2GB SD with the navcore + map loaded on.

and I finally got the TTS feature to work... but for some reason, I noticed it takes longer time to boot up now and takes longer time to find satellite signals. Today I took it out for a test drive with TTS On, the unit seems have slow response and sometimes freezes and it did auto-reset... after that, I tried turned the TTS feature Off from the Voice Selection screen menu and it seems to be working fine. Any thoughts on this? May be my 2gb SD not big enough for it??? Should I use 4GB+ SD card?? SDHC compatible??
Should I upgrade the bootloader to 5.5122?

Thank you all for your help in advace

Which Loquendo voices are you using?
You have to use the loquendo v6 uncompressed voices (~200 Mb each), also know as x10 voices.
Using the loquendo v7 voices (70 Mb), also know as x30 voices, with TomTom ONE creates the problem of slow response....

This is NOT a bootloader's problem, but if you wish to use a larger SD card, you have to upgrade your bootloader at least at v 5.5022 (5.5106 is ok).

Hi Raffetti,

Thanks for your reply. I believe I have the v7 Loquendo voices. I see some files like "LicenseCode7.txt" in my Loquendo TTS folder, is this version 7 then??? So this version is too fast for my TT1 v2?? Where can I find the version 6 files??? If I want to use a 4GB SDHC card, do I need to upgrade the BL to v5.5122 then? Has this been confirmed working on TT1 v2 units??? Thanks for your help.

Please avoid to ask every time is BL is compatible with your unit!

The answer is in the first post. Thanks.

Hello,
I have a GO 510, have changed the Bootloader to 5.5122, but when the navcore used 8.410, it me does not appear " to connect with computer? ". It connects directly. It returns when the option appears with navcore 8.413. Which is the problem?. Thanks.

Hi, sorry for the delay. I am afraid that I don't know how to help with your issue. Perhaps you should check to see if your unit is compatible with the upgrade....:goodluck:

BL 5.5022 runs ok with my Go520.

It also runs fine with NC8.413.

Regards.

TTOne2,

Thank you for your reply. My unit is compatible with bootlader 5.5122. It works perfectly with other navcores included 8.413.The only one problem with navcore is 8.410 that before if that was wondering to connect with computer?, but on having changed to bootloader 5.5122, it has eliminated the question. It turns me to appearing the question with 8.204 and 8.413. Other technical parts work perfectly.

Thank you very much. :confused::confused:

I have a question, I used Home to update my navcore to 8.350, but my previous bl was 5 and now the home and .bif file keep telling me my BL version is back to 1 which of course means I can't use my SDHC card. I have replaced the system file with 5.5122 but the .bif file and Home keeps insisting its only version 1.
What am I not doing right?

Version 1? What do you mean. What TT Home tells you is wrong anyway, for all TT devices. If you delete the .bif file it should make a new one. If however you have a TTuser build navcore running make sure you also delete the ttgo.bak file and make a new version.txt file with the appropriate values for navcore and build there to make sure it is making a new ttgo.bak file. The ttgo.bak file is only one time generated and then at every start-up of your TT device copyed over the ttgo.bif file. This just to make sure TTHome does not detect you are running a navcore which is not made for your device.

OK
everytime I restart Home, in the system info, and in my ttgo.bif file, the BL version is written as 10012. i tried overwriting firstlyand secondly deleting the .bif file but the new one still has the 10012 bl version. I don't have a .bak anywhere in my tt folders. And how do I make a new version.txt file?
thanks.

This version.txt file and the ttgo.bak file is only interesting for you if you are running a TTuser modified NavCore version. If you do not do this it is not possible to do what I wrote above.
In the howto you can find more info about this, but also in the readmenot.txt which comes with the specific SEnavcore by TTuser.
Is the version displayed correctly when you just look at it within your tomtom device? So not through TomTom Home, because that program as I already wrote always gives the wrong version of your bootloader and is therefore not that usefull.

If putting the system file for the 5.5122 bootloader ( I assume you did it correctly and renamed the file which often comes as 'system.55122' to just plane 'system' and put that) in the root of your tomtom device and booting your tomtom device does not change the bootloader, you either already have 5.5122 or you have a newer one. BTW with 8.350 a new bootloader is provided if I am correct and it is I think 5.5128, however I am not sure about this.

Alas I can't get the device to work when not disconnected, keeps freezing, but will try.

I've updated the device through HOME now to 8.350 but no longer have a ttgo.bif file, just a tthome.bif one. Should I?

humm, tthome.bif is probably just something for tthome. the ttgo.bif should be made automatically after you start up your device when it is not connected to your PC. But you can also check your bootloader and other stuff when you start-up you TomTom device (not conencted to the pc) and press on the sattelite stripes in the right bottom. There you should be able to find your real bootloader. TTHome program is known to be not trust worthy at all.

ok thank you all. I've now updated to 8.350 and have 55122 and it works in Home. That will do me for now :thanks:

Hi, fellows!

I've been using Bootloader 5.022 since updated my GO510 to Nav.8.2xx

I'm currently using Navcores 8.302, 8.350, 8.410 on different SD cards.

My question is: Is this Bootloader (5.5022) the most appropiate for these sort of Navcores, or Would you recommend a different one?

Thanks for your help :LoL:

I'd recomment 8.350 as it works for me, but that's on a 720

I'm using same version 5.5022 on my TT One V3 and navcore 8.413, no problem.
The most recommended is 5.5122, on first post.

bootloader 5.5122 - Required to run TT Navcore 8.402/8.410.
bootloader 5.5128 only works from the version 8.412

on my go710 running 5.5128 and navcore 8.412 everything is running great.

Thx:D

Do you use night view? When I switch to night view on my 710 the screen flashes every second or so.

my 720 works fine with 5.5122 on the latest 8.351nc

@astrokid

We all hope so...it's the official latest version for the Go 720!

my 520 works fine with 5.5128 on the 8.351 Nav and 830 Map.

:hehe:

good point. (I meant the patched one but yes good point)

bootloader 5.5122 - Required to run TT Navcore 8.402/8.410.


Are you sure ? I use 5.5106 on my TT910 with navcore 8.413 and it seems working.

8.410 works like a charm with BL5.5106 (message about TMC RDS connection when i plug the TMC RDS)

No TMC/RDS on the 8.413 (when I plug in the dock with the GPS, there no message about connecting TMC RDS) but the plug of my f*cking dock is broken... Tomtom have to send me a new one in a couple of days.

Here's my question. My TTG 700 is running NC8412 with 8.30.2248 north america maps. The boot loader says it is still 5.420, which used to match my very old navcore from ages ago. I don't have a system file in the root of my tomtom. I have TTSYSTEM but I understand it's not the same thing. I checked by .bif file and it says 5.420.

Everything I'm reading says it's safe to install BL 5.5128 and perhaps my unit won't be so slow to start-up, which is what I'm hoping to gain. Also, everytime I connect it to my computer, the computer wants to run CHKDSK. It's the original 2 GB Hard Drive. What would you folks recommend that I do at this point? I can't be the only one with this question. Thanks!

@mopi You are right bootloader 5.5122 - IS NOT REQUIRED to run TT Navcore 8.402/8.410 at alll.

The only reason to upgrade the bootloader is for SDHC support. If your TT already sopports that, there is no reason to update the bootloader. Also when you do not need to have SDHC support, there is no reason to update as well.
Bovirus is failing to update his opening post, which results in people updating their device with a new bootlaoder which is useless and can only cause problems.

@hydre76

No need to update the bootloader if it is not needed for you. If it ask you to run CHKDSK, then run it, there are errors on your disk. Do this by running scandisk from within windows and maybe even select the surface test. Bootloader and navcore can be updated independent from eachother. Bootloader is update by a file named system. ttsystem is the kernel of the navcore build.
Advise for you: If you do not need SDHC support do not update your bootloader. Start-up time or not effected by the bootloader at all, as is CHKDSK problems.

Hi,

Somebody wrote:
'bootloader 5.5122 - Required to run TT Navcore 8.402/8.410...'

IT IS NOT TRUE !

My TomTom One v2
config:
- Navcore 8.413.1237.
- Bootloader v5.5022.

It works well.

Works perfectly.

TT 920
BL:5.5128
Navcore: 8.351 x20
Map: NA 830.2284

Do you use night view? When I switch to night view on my 710 the screen flashes every second or so.

yes on my 710 too, the problem is navcore 8.350.
wait for an update. perhaps 8.351...

my TT 910 works perfectly in version 5.5128 ! :D

TT ONE 1st edition - bootloader v.5.5128 -OK (test with SDHC Kingston 8GB)
THX

Yes! Bootloader version 5.5122 from the first post of this thread fixed my TomTom XL 30-series that appeared bricked. Screen was black due to failed software upgrade. This bootloader got it going again :D

DeviceVersionHW=ONE XL (v9)
BootLoaderVersion=55122

I recently upgraded my Go 720

BL: 5.5128
Apps: 8.413
Maps: 830.2284

But after upgrade ALG stop working, i checked the options, everything seems to ok, still my ALG ?

any one have suggestions...

How long will the upgrading take?
I am upgrading my TT one 3rd now to BL5.5122
It is almost 15 minutes, and it is always flashing with a red cross.
Is that normal? How long will this take?
Thanks

It will take 30sec.
Please check the instruction of first post.

My Go730 works fine with Bootloader 5.5128
Navcore 8.413.1237
Map 830.2352 (Australia)

All features are working ,except automatic Day/Night switching - but that's because of the modified SE Navcore.

Tried to upgrade TomTom Go Classic with 5.5128, but bricked it. No way to fix it. Sd-card screen keeps flashing, but won't recognize cards anymore (probably due to sdhc-driver?). TomTom's clear-rom-tool won't work either, because TomTom sd-card isn't recognized by Windows anymore.

So: don't upgrade TomTom Go Classic bootloader to newer versions!!!
