NickJH Reviewed by NickJH on 29th January 2018. Mazda NB1 (JUST discussions here). See Tutorials for HowTo I have been trying to get downloaded maps working on my Mazda Navigation NB1, using latest FastActivate (and also tried Albert's EasyActivator), but the ttsystem and map combination gives an error 'You can't use this 'Australia-922' map on this device'. This is the process I followed:- To use the tools, I had to create my own TTGO.BIF and save it in the root of the card, using what was displayed in the Device Information from TomTom Home. Once i did this I was able to extract Meta codes for Rating: 5

@endeavour79: FastActivate needs a ttgo.bif (with the device-infos) to work properly. You must create this file by yourself. Read the instruction in #3 from the HowTo-link.

Got it all sorted, Thanks for that. Noticed that the Nav got really really slow and sluggish after the update.
Any suggestions?

If you've used non-Mazda/NB1 maps you need to delete the arp*.dat files.

Alright, I did not know this. I used the Australia 1000_8643 from this forum. Would assume it's a general map?
Delete just the .arp or anything else as well? Otherwise just copy in, put speedcams and activate? Right?

What is the patched NavCore for? Just for TTS or does it do anything else?

@Alfred, sorry, what do you mean regarding POIs dislayed? I can see gas stations on the map..is this a hint to what you're asking for?

Is there a way to download specific NB1 maps? What's different?

I had the same issue with .dct error with NB1 cards and correct metacode.
Then I changed the ttgo.bif and removed the mapversion in "CurrentMapVersion=" (just left it blank) and that worked for me.

Actually, only this entry (filled out) in the ttgo.bif is needed to unlock a map: DeviceUniqueID=

Which map you use? POIs displayed permanently from the device?

Of course. The difference? The NB1-maps were created specifically for the NB1 with all needed files. Look her for DL-links of 1000.8681 maps:

But i'm now seeing, you use an Australia-map. There is no known code for the NB1-Australia_1000_8681 at the moment . So you can only use the PNA(High-Level)-Australia_1000_8643 under the given hint in #614.

Not for TTS. Only a NB1 with a patched NC can "see" and use NB1-maps (and High-Level-maps) from here.

One or two POI (selected to display) is ok, but not a lot or all of installed POIs (gasstations, speedcams, hotels...). Too many displayed POIs can slow down the device.
