You can find many answers on the internet claiming that you need to restart your tomtom device etc. But this does not work. In my case, I have.

Hello allI have read a lot of the tutorials and posts here to try and update my old TomTom one xl to the latest maps etc. but I am struggling a bit (I have done this successfully before but a long time ago so I am a bit of a 'born again noob' i'm afraid).
I have loaded the voices and Navcore (9510 for xl) using the installer and hopefully that is all ok. I have added the maps (USA south atlantic 1030_9520) and FastActivate to the root of the SD card but I keep getting a .dct error when I try to patch the maps. I have checked the meta codes and there appears to one available and I have even put the code in a .txt file in the root of the SD card too but I still get the .dct error.
Is there something i'm missing? What part of the meta code do you place in the .txt file (I've tried all of it, just the numbers and all of it up to and including the .meta part but nothing seems to help).
It's now gone 1:30 am and i'm struggling to focus
Thank you.Hi all,
It's not my first time, I've already used Fastactivate tool to activate maps and it was working well.

I've a Tomtom One (1st gen.) and I want to install Europe_South_1GB_1011_8979 (compatibility is okay).
I've pasted the map in SD Folder
Then I run FastActivate: (v.25/03/2018)
- 1 Updating meta.txt file (25/03/18)
- 2 Tried patch maps (.dct error) then I've tried with renamming file in META.txt and activate but the error is still present.
Could you help me please?
Thanks in advance,
EDIT: I may found my solution. I think the meta code isn't available yet. I'm downloading Europe_1GB_South_1011_9046 and I'll try with this map.
I'll keep you in touch.
