I’m looking at getting my dad one of the new ONE v4 regional models (the newest ones with the funky-looking new suction mount design) for his b’day … I’ve read a lot of stuff about the v3 models not having the functionality to manage custom POIs unless it’s ‘reintroduced’ using a custom menu at the expense of other functions - does the v4 also have this problem? Or is it able to deal with custom POIs “out of the box”? I ask because I want him to be able to install a few custom POI files onto the unit for him, so obviously I want to be sure that whatever I buy has the ability to deal with these.

Great to see a community having a crack at the TT. I am working on a voice hack util at the moment to make custom voice presets. It’s trickier than I thought, but looks like it’s working so far. You are right about them being hacker friendly - with just enough tricky hurdles to keep it fun. :-]

I have a TomTom One Version 1 and a TomTom One Version 2.
I purchased an additional set of maps for Canada & USA for my version 1 a couple of years ago.
This has been installed and registered on my Version 1.
I would like to get these maps working on my version 2.
Can anyone point me to a website that has instructions to get this working or tell me how to do this please?

I’ve been hunting for a way to run a touchscreen java browser concurrently with the navigator in a TomTom One. Sun changed the Java licensing lately so it should be easier to get the JRE running. Am I correct in believing you’ve found how to make a proper IP connection? If so, these pieces could be combined with UltraVNC’s java viewer to control a PC running UltraVNC server.

Hi Turtlehead,

I notice that you’ve been able to establish a remote login to the TomTom One by redirecting /bin/sh over netcat to a port.

Please could you let me know how you did this, as I should be getting a TomTom One V2 soon and want to be able to make a shell connection to it.

Thanks in advance.

Richard.

Any chance you could mail or post your recipe for this? I’m quite interested to get a shell on my One via bt. I have a PB and several x86 Linux boxes. Did you have to cross-compile the utils or are they already on the root fs?

It should work fine. You may be asked to reigster the maps with the product code though. (for some unknown reason, this won’t happen if you use their original card).

Try copy everything over again.

I have a Tom Tom Go, and have recently purchased a blank 2GB memory card, as I was hoping I could copy the data from a Tom Tom SD card (e.g. Western Europe maps) onto this blank SD card.
This has not worked though, as the Tom Tom does not read the new card.
Is there anything I can do to get round this?
