How to get the Sygic maps and put them in the Maps folder ... Guide for begginers.
* 17/06/2019 First edition
How to get the maps and put them in the Maps folder ... Guide for begginers.In recent years the most veteran users have seen relevant changes, some issues have not changed but others have, specially in relation to installation. Before the purchase of Android by Google simply put the folder and the apk (in the root of the IM or SD you were running and was already installed where you wanted. With the appearance of KitKat and the absence of SD write permissions, we took an example of how the applications were installed under Android / data / files etc.
Since then the installation of the application has been varied, in fact Sygic created a system that from the incorporation of the folder in the root installed the files in the SD under Android / data. Think also that we are talking about fixed versions and sometimes there are setbacks or differences that will be discussed in the threads of the versions. Under Android 9, I have a Truck in the internal of the IM a car in IM Android / data and a Navigation in SD Android / data ... Something is missing to install in the root of the SD, but at the time everything will succeed.
But the essential remains, this is the structure of the base folder with the contents of the folder.
The Syigc base folder estructure.
But the essential remains, this is the structure of the base folder with the contents of the folder.
Installed in external memory expansion card... SD/Android/data/com.sygic.aura/files/...
By sympathy in the internal memory under Android/data the same structure is created with the files folder empty, it can be erased or leave it does not interfere. In fact you already know that some applications can move internal/external and I understand that by default they prevent it.
As you can see, we use TTv9.0.1 for parts or regions.
The speedcam folder will contain the downloaded radars of the company.
Folder wcl is downloaded with the maps.
File content.info should be in the download of the base folder.
In this case this version is installed in the internal memory and exclusively uses TTV9.
The rupi and import folders that are related to the custom pois that can be incorporated in this version appear.
Again by sympathy in the external SD memory expansion card under Android/data the same structure is created with the files folder empty, it can be erased or leave it does not interfere.
In the following case we will observe the Truck version installed in the root of the internal memory. Here we have a case of maximum sympathy as it is replicated with empty files under Android/data in internal/external memory.
Initially the Here maps are incorporated which are the ones that will not give all the options Truck.
Sygic truck can be used as a car and uses the same map Here by countries.
I can also incorporate the TTv9 maps and use them renaming the folders, but without Truck options.
What would happen if TTv9.0.1 was incorporated in this version because it would see the countries that are in a single file, but not those that are in parts and apart from the interest to see how it works does not make much sense having the TTv9.
In the case of doing tests with maps, the content should be the base folder of the apk always, because in this case, is the one that authorizes its use by the apk truck, below we will open a content Truck and a Car and you will see that if you use a content car on a truck the authorization does not appear, on the other hand if it is on the content truck.
Installation.
The installer apk can be executed from any location, if you leave it, leave it compressed, to prevent it from being erased to obtain space, by cleaning applications.
If you have a version installed and a new apk appears, if the previous one and the current one are from the same source, you make a copy of everything on your PC and overwrite tests. If there are no important changes in the contents it may work, if not this is how we proceed to make a clean installation.
In addition to uninstalling, we will delete data, cache and all relative folders so that nothing exists that could interfere with an earlier version of the application.
Once obtained the base folder and the apk, we will verify that the content file appears, since the content of this is specific and is adapted to the version that we are going to install.
Sometimes the apk has been installed, it has been progressing, and without intervention by the user, the base folder has been downloaded and created, requesting the application itself to download maps etc, but this is not always the case.
We can use the PC Maps Downloader tool, this is an * .exe file that accesses the Sygic servers and obtains the maps in their different versions as well as the corresponding wcl folder that is next to the content that entrusts the application to read the maps, in fact wcl is for maps and content for the application.
Virus ... like that virus?
In the computers the information enters and leaves through the ports, these are watched by firewalls, antivirus, anti-malware etc as protection. The O.S. it has implicit permissions, in any other software the user grants them, but there are some that are not contemplated at first. If a downloader goes out to search and also brings things, the protection software from your device will think “here we have someone who enters and leaves without permission, it is a virus?” .
Well no, it is not a virus friends. That is our Sygic PC Downloader, so let it out.
Downloading the maps on the PC.
It is advisable to launch the executable inside a folder with your name, so what you get left inside you will create a folder here and a tomtom in which you will separate v9 from v9.0.1 and inside each one will leave you the wcl that you download that will be the one that corresponds to those maps.
When you execute the downloader you will access the different maps and providers.
In the case of TTv9.0.1 you will access the country and then you can download the region of your interest.
In the case of TTv9 or Here, you will access the country and after inserting the reference number the download will start.
As usual it is sometimes perfect and sometimes it seems that the server has gone to breakfast ...
Summary.
Now we know that...
It is essential to read the post of presentation of the version that we want to install.
That we should get the apk and the base folder.
That for the Truck versions we will obtain the HERE maps that are classified by country.
That for the 14.3.4 and the CAR versions we will obtain the TomTom v9 maps, classified by country.
That for the versions superior to 17.3.2 we will obtain the maps TomTom v9.0.1 that are separated in parts or regions.
That inside the Maps folder must appear the wcl folder that corresponds with the downloader, as well as the content that already came in the base folder.
That wcl and content work in unison, and if they are not or are not OK it does not work, wcl has to do with maps and content has to do with the application. If in Sygic Truck you use the here and you want to use the TT by countries, the content must be the one that is included in Maps here. Open a content with the notebook and you will see what application is ready for it. Once this has been commented, leave your tests for later and focus on the right provider for each application.
Within the Maps folder, the speedcam folder that is generated when downloading the company's radars will also appear, the rupi folder can also be with our position files and the import folder (if the import method is used to update files *. Rupi and radars are customized in the versions that this is possible).
Regards.
As we mentioned the NENS downloaders or others who work under the Windows console, you will find them sometimes in the posts of the versions and in any case, in SygicMaps, contributed by our good friends who keep us always up to date.
Credits for all of them.

Do not ask for private, that's what the forum is for.
Your doubts, others have had, read the threads before asking, you will know the experiences and maybe they are resolved.
Facilitate device, operating system, version, install, internal or external memory, what you have done, where you stand ...

how do I move my newly created com.sygic.aura folder with latest downloaded maps and speedcams as shown in Mentas instructions to my sygic app on my android unit. it mentions an apk and base folder which I presume is the com.sygic.aura but I am lost with the apk ?
or am I missing something ?
my 76 year old brain is not as good as it used to be.
any advice would be truly appreciated

These instruction above dated 17th June 2019, 07:28 PM in most cases will not be correct with the new series of Sygic 23.5.x and above that will come out.
The same with traffic will not work because it is being controlled by the server that checks if you have a valid subscription.
All of this has changes since the new series of Sygic Sygic 23.5.x has come out.
You no long can see any maps on the phone.
But if you connect to your PC you can see the maps.
This folder "RES \ITINERARY" is no more.
This was with the older version of Sygic personal POI's that is no more.
There are always bugs when a new series is introduced.
It always takes Sygic a couple of versions be for things all work correctly.
For a Stable version use Sygic 23.5.2-2260 that is the one you find on the Google Play store
The rest are only beta versions after Sygic 23.5.2-2260.
Sygic is for every changing their app.
Some Items remover and some put back over the versions they have put out.Last edited by asprin624; 5th November 2023 at 11:24 PM.
