After unpacking, the size is 1.1 GB. But the date of adjustment is from 2017 so it probably will not be right.

TomTom used to release a new operating system every now and then which rendered any hacked maps useless unless you knew how to re-patch them which fortunately I could but many people were left with bricked TomToms after paying for them on ebay etc especially the ones with Truck maps . The newer TomToms are unhackable so they are now offering cheap deals to buy new ones to stop losing money on the older ones.


Got u - wish they focus on delivering new / up-to-date maps instead of looking for ways to brick people's devices :) Yet still, I don't think its tom-tom messing with us with this update.

Most of the people with V2 software would be happy, having a bricked device. Replacing the unit is a good way for painless upgrade, as most of these cars are still under warranty and it would be impossible to say whose false is the bricking :D

How strange. Maps and the 3.3.16.960 are showing for me within the toolbox. Currently downloading the maps (slowly). Will wait to see what happens with the firmware.
