navcore versions
just purchased from ebay a tomtom start 25 ,in the hope of putting truck onto it.
low and behold (just my luck) its got 12.071 navcore version on it ,supposedly not supported by ttactivator
my question is can i plug it in and upgrade the navcore on tomtom mydrive connect or is there a risk it will upgrade to much newer navcore which is totally unpatchable
or can i flash navcore myself to 12.075 or compatible version
dont wish to bugger it up .
at the moment start 25 is bog standard nothing as been altered
hence question

I tried truck on via 130 and start 60 (nav 3 version) worked fine initially then slowed after a few hours. Ended up with an 820 live
which did the same thing. Tried camper sayville map and it works fine. You still get all the height width routing etc. Used for nearly a
month now, no problems at all. Deleted pois as not used. Download with tt activator. Start unit with original map then select camper map.Last edited by mikeclarke; 13th October 2020 at 09:12 PM.

Glad you got it going. The slowing down for me seemed to be more related to the map rather than the model of tomtom. It starts slowing after constant use in a moving vehicle.
Leave it on in the house overnight and it appears to be fine. I now trust my 820 with camper maps with a 15'7 trailer into town centres. It doesn't do stupid routing like
the new go professional range, seems to be the same as an old go 520 with 9.702 navcore.
