my new TOMTOM some questions...
Hello all,
I have bought an secondhand TOMTOMGO710 for my self because my current one haves issues with the internal storage.
When you wanna put a new map on it takes about 2/3 hours so i have bought a new one + sold my old one.
Before i bought the TTGO710 , i have bought the same device for my uncle.
Because he hads an VD-TEC navigationsystem with custom TOMTOM on it. And when i see this new navigation the TTGO710 i am exicted about it.
Looks nice, does what it suppose to do, as you now when i recieve his TT device i have bought a new SDHC card for him with 8GB storage on it so he can have the latest maps for about 10 years now.
So my question is, what is the best software to put on ''my'' TTGO710?
This is what i have installed on my uncles device:
- BootLoader_v5.5022 <- for supporting SDHC cards more than 2GB
- NC9.510_DSA_For 64Mb_ram latest software
Is this good, or can it be betteR?????djbos Reviewed by djbos on . my new TOMTOM some questions...

That sounds like a good setup to me & you can now run any map you want with that 9.510 navcore

thanks for the answers,.
What are the diffrence between the bootloaders?
BootLoader_v0.0001.rar
BootLoader_v5.5022.zip
BootLoader_v5.5106.zip
BootLoader_v5.5122.zip
BootLoader_v5.5128.zip
I heard that you can not downgrade from v5.5128? to example v5.5022?
so can i brick my TTGO710 WHEN i use the latest bootloader?

Don't ask and don't change it! You have exactly what you need which will run perfectly and playing silly buggers with bootloaders can end in tears!
As we say "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"
STOP, STOP, STOP!
Just realised you say you have a BootLoader_v5.5022 BUT you need at least a 5.5120 or higher see

@biggerdave
Bootloader 5.5022 is high enough to read SDHC cards up to 16 or 32 gb. So an 8 gb SDHC card will work properly on a GO710 with bl 5.5022. No reason to change it.

i KNOW THE 5.5022 is to read sdhc cards above 2GB but i tought like the bluetooth function or maybe the satelites are going to be better etc.

you can also give him an honest answer to the question he asked
----------------------
you cannot brick the 710 , because all goes via sd-card
if you use a wrong bootloader , you need to do some tricks to recover it , but the device is never bricked
0.0001 is zero bootloader , you can use it to recover to a lower version
the others are normal bootloaders
you could change if you want , but as said , there is no (known) reason for it , so you better take the advice and leave it as it is
