    Default Cracking the non-Live Carminat

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Opening statement by biggerdave

    There is NO (current) way to manipulate/crack/patch/copy/clone or otherwise modify these Carminat Live devices to use downloaded maps so PLEASE don't ask BUT feel free to contribute here. However, see further information/details within this thread about Cracking/Patching/Copying the Caminat "non-Live" version


    From the guru downunder35:
    Suffice to say that at this time nothing is possible due to the new RSA encryption the checking of the hash codes.
    No-one I contacted and worked with was able to get the keys decoded or direct access to the internal memory for applying a patch at that level.
    Also it seems the further development has stalled for the above reasons.

    I am getting a new car in March with built in TomTom Carminat, is this system any good? I know nothing about it? could I put the new Europe map on it? and still get the live services to work? Or am I jumping the gun here!!!

    Yes & no Jayne.
    The carminat stuff is a bit of a grey area/black art as far as cracking is concerned. You really need someone like downunder35m to help on this but as he's rarely, if ever, here, maybe you need to track him down on other forums?

    I have one of these in my Renault, its not bad I am trying to upgrade the map to the Southern Africa 885 4095, it sees it but wants activation and fast autoactivation is looking for for TTGO.BIF or TTNAVIGATION.BIF however Carminat has TTHOME.BIF

    I'm still looking but this seems to be the best place and there isn't much on Carminat here ;(

    If you have the Carminat Live then currently this cannot be used to add downloaded maps from here.

    However, if you have a non-Live version then I don't know if this will help but as you don't have a ttgo.bif then use a Keygen (like Easytools) where you can put your device ID in, instead of using one that needs a copy of your ttgo.bif. This copy should be found in the loopback folder but inside an archive.

    does this map go on a memory card ?
    then maybe try easyusetool in manual way
    with this tool you need device ID

    cant tell if it works , but its worth a try , i guess

    Latest info from downunder35:-

    How to share Carminat maps with other users

    After some hard work and many hours of searching there is a tiny light at the end of out tunnel.
    Due to the confirmation of the user Stronzo from a different forum I can now confirm that we can use a type of "map sharing" on the Carminat devices:

    What you need
    Download the program Volume ID from Microsoft :
    Link URL:
    Only the registered members can see the Link URLs. Please Login OR Register.
    memorise the folder where you put the program
    Get familiar with the Dos promt, using
    cmd
    in the searchbox when you click on the Windows start button.

    How to share your map with other users
    One word first! This only works for maps activated with a .MCT inside the map folder.
    If your map was updated through Home you most likely have a .DCT file for the map activation.
    The .MCT is bound to the serialnumber of the SD card, the .DCT to the serial number of your device.
    A map with a MCT works in any Carminat, but a map with DCT only the Car it was purchased for!

    I assume the SD is in drive E: , if that is not the case use the correct drive letter as shown in your Windows Explorer!
    1. Use a cardreader and copy the .MCT file for the map into a folder on your hard drive.
    2. Open the command prompt and type:
    vol E:
    press ENTER
    Apart from other things you will get the Volume ID of the SD shown on your screen,
    Open an editor and create a textfile containing the volume ID of your SD.
    Should be in the form xxxx-xxxx, use the correct name and full version number of your map as a filename to save into the same folder that contains the backup of your .MCT file!
    3. Use Winrar and pack both the .MCT and the texfile with the volume ID, again use the full name and version number of the map as a filename.
    4. Upload to a file hoster and post the link in this thread.

    How to use "shared maps"
    Use new SD, not your Original!!
    1. Check what maps are already shared by other users.
    2. Download the map you like (and that is shared!) from the corresponding map thread and the shared data provided by the user.
    3. Unpack the map to the SD.
    4. Use Winrar and open the archive containing the shared data.
    5. Unpack the .MCT file into your map folder.
    6. Open the textfile inside the archive and use the volume ID shared by the user:
    Open the command prompt in the folder containing the program VolumeID,
    ( I again assume the SD in drive E: ,change accordingly if different on your PC! xxxx-xxxx is the volume ID provided inside the rar archive)
    type:
    volumeid e: xxxx-xxxx
    press ENTER
    7. Done

    Now the new map should work fine on your Carminat!


    All this can only work if many users are willing to provide their data, and now, there is no more personal info shared for TT than they would get on any other TT using pirated maps.

    Further info from downunder25:-

    It seems that all Carminat Live use 4E0D-F1F7 as the volume ID of the SD card.
    That means if users upload the content of the SD (with MCT activation) the data can be shared with all other Carminat users, giving updates map for everyone.
    But it also means users have to share and start supporting the cause.

    Hey guys,

    Yes I confirm that all Carminat Live use 4E0D-F1F7 as the volume ID of the SD card.

    If someone is interested for test I have an old map (France 855.2938) with .MCT

    I can upload it if you wish.
