1. Tomtom One Xl Cracked Maps

The ongoing feud between President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson reached absolutely bizarre, reality-bending levels this week, with Trump responding to reports Tillerson had called him a “moron” by suggesting that they could “compare IQ tests ... I can tell you who is going to win.”

Navcore TomTom one xl / GO v9.530 Download Free. March 4, 2014 GPS Map USA 4 Comments. This is NOT the latest version of Tomtom`s Navcore but newer versions are impossible to crack because Microsoft SUED TomTom for using some of their technology on Linux devices, and TomTom had to change their. No-registration upload of files up to 250MB. Not available in some countries.

This juicy little distraction was apparently irresistible to Mensa, the world’s largest association of people with very high IQs. In an unfortunate interview with the Boston Globe, spokesman Charles Brown said that “We’re happy to offer our test to anybody really who’s interested in joining our society.” Mensa also issued a press release proclaiming, “Mensa IQ Tests Abound in October — Politicians Welcome,” noting that “all brilliance is welcome” and “IQ testing can provide insight on how one’s brain processes information.”

Mensa, an organization which was originally intended as a sort of aristocratic private club for geniuses, requires its members to demonstrate their above-average intelligence by providing qualifying results from one of roughly 200 tests. None of these tests apparently measure your willingness to cater to the whims of a wilting carrot who, despite the numerous pressures of a tanking presidency, seems much more interested in litigating his feuds through the media.

Of course, all of this glosses over that psychology currently recognizes IQ tests as not measuring actual intelligence, a concept which is incredibly hard to define, and which is inevitably linked to both social and individual conceptions. IQ tests primarily measure a range of skills, academic achievements and acquired knowledge—things that tend to have to do with social standing, not innate intelligence.

For example, judging the intelligence of racial or ethnic groups by IQ tests is now commonly acknowledged in the scientific community as racist pseudoscience, since the results are related to socioeconomic status.

As Illinois State University psychologist W. Joel Schneider noted in an interview with Scientific American, the value of an IQ test is its correlation with factors society deems intellectually important:

IQ tests did not begin as operational definitions of theories that happened to correlate with important outcomes. The reason that IQ tests correlate with so many important outcomes is that they have undergone a long process akin to natural selection.

“IQ is an imperfect predictor of many outcomes,” Schneider added. “A person who scores very low on a competently administered IQ test is likely to struggle in many domains. However, an IQ score will miss the mark in many individuals, in both directions.”

Hmm. That sounds very much like a situation the nation may currently be experiencing.

  If you install the tomtom software on your computer and plug in the tomtom, it should just update them, I think? I have tomtom one 3rd edition, and every time I plug it into the PC it checks to make sure everything's up to date.
  And tries to sell me speed camera maps too, of course
• #3

  I was going to check everything now with the TomTom software on my computer because I haven't for a while...but I don't seem to have the cable now so I've had to buy a new one! So it will be a few days before I get it lol.
  But from memory I think all it did was update the software on the TomTom device not the actual maps otherwise I wouldn't still have the original version it was sold with because I have checked for updates in the past (though not recently).
  Maybe for your version or when you bought yours, you got a subscription to the map updates or something? I don't think mine has anything like that unfortunately!
• #4

  Ah, it's entirely possible I got a free year's subscription or something. Still worth plugging it in - might be cheaper that going through the website?
  Someone posted a link to some free satnav software on here a while ago; i think it had different versions for various phones and satnavs. Try searching the forum, it shouldn't be too hard to find.
  ETA does it use a USB to mini-USB cable? If you have any of these lying around from other devices (digital cameras, PS3 controller charging) then they will work fine.
• #5

  I will give it a go when my new cable comes to double check it won't update the maps, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't. No, I didn't have another cable that would fit it so I had to buy another one but I got one for about so it's not broke the bank!
  I did try searching the forum as well before I posted but I couldn't see anything. I will keep on looking though because loads of things come up so maybe I've missed it! Not having much luck over this lol. Thanks anyway
• #6

  Oh hummmmm
  The only totally free things you get from TomTom are updates to the software, GPSFix which is a simple predictor file that lets the unit latch on to satellites more quickly and MapShare.
  MapShare allows users to make minor corrections such as changing the name, correcting one way street errors or no left/right turns. It is NOT a free map upgrade.
  When you buy a TomTom you get one free map upgrade to bring your installed map up to the latest version. Unfortunately if you leave it too long to use it or already have the latest version then it won't work.
  After that every single map you install has to be paid for. And about the only source of maps is TomTom. I have seen websites (eBay for example) offer maps on SD card but I have my doubts about those. Basically TomTom and all the sat nav companies guard their map data very closely. So you are very unlikely to find genuine, fully up to date maps anywhere other than the manufacturers websites.
  TomTom maps are also locked to the device they are installed on so cannot be transferred between units. So no 'borrowing' a mates device to copy maps. They simply won't work!
• #7

  Hey, I haven't check back here for a few days. Thanks for all that information! My new cable came and as I thought it didn't upgrade the maps just the other software on it. I haven't looked at MapShare thing yet, I was wondering what it was so I'll give it a go when I have time.
  I thought the choice would be either to buy the newer maps from TomTom themselves or to stick with the old ones - I just hoped maybe there was an alternative I hadn't come across lol. At least if I buy it from there I know it should work and be genuine. I'll just have to decide if it's worth it. Shame you can't just pay for a subscription to cover any updates within a certain timescale rather than keep making one off purchases of them. But whatever makes the most profit I suppose... :rolleyes:

  I'd check the Tomtom website again. They do.
  I can't remember the prioce (and it may be something that you buy with a new Tomtom)
  But I get four free updates to cover me for a year (in my case until Oct 2009) It costs £7.95 a quarter.

• #9

  You're right - I did miss that! That sounds like a decent deal without any hassle... However I went on that part of the site and I went to click to get a personal quote for my device, connected my TomTom as asked and the only option to buy the maps seem to be the single maps not the subscription, which is still the same price as I originally thought. So maybe it is something that came with the newer TomToms or you had to register within a certain time. Mine doesn't seem to support Map Share either! :mad: So if I really do want to update the maps, I think my only option is just to pay the £65.95 .
• #10

  You may find that to use the Subscription you have to have a certain level of map already installed. I got that impression when I took out a subscription. So if your map is not the current one you won't be able to subscribe to the incremental updates.
  As for Mapshare that was a fairly recent introduction and does not work on your version of maps. You may also need to upgrade the software too if you haven't already done so.
  Mapshare is perhaps the wrong name for what it actually is. It is a way of both alerting TomTom to errors in the maps and for sharing certain types of corrections with other users.
  You can alert TomTom to something like a new road that is not yet on the map. However until TomTom get round to releasing an entirely new map with the new road you will never see it on your map. Nor will any one else. Basically anything that requires re-drawing the map never appears on your device.
  You can however correct something like a one way street that is marked the wrong way round. Or correct the name of a road. You can block roads or junctions, so for example if there is a junction with a No Right Turn restriction you can mark that.
  And you can correct the built in POIs (Points of Interest). For example moving them to the correct location, I could waste a sizeable portion of my life correcting the hundreds of errors just in Reading for example. God help anyone unfamiliar with the town who relies on the POIs.
  But Mapshare can be a double edged sword. It is handy for correcting minor errors and sharing them with other TomTom owners. But not so good when some plank goes and totally blocks the A40 as happened when Mapshare first came out!

  You can download them from torrent sites.

  And a lot of use they will be too probably.
  If someone has been daft enough to upload the map folder installed on their TomTom then it is absolutely useless for anyone else. The maps are locked to the individual device they are installed on and will not operate on any other device, even one of the same model.

  Oh I see.I haven't got one I just see whats on sites.There seems to be millions of them shared.How do people without the internet update ?

  I have a TomTom One that's now about three years old. At the beginning of May I was able to take out a map update subscription. However, before I did so I had to buy a new map of UK & Ireland at a discounted rate of 50% off. The total cost, including VAT, was £39.60, made up of £19.80 for the new map and another £19.80 for the subscription.
  I downloaded the new map on 1st May, and I've also had one full update since then.
  In addition, Mapshare, which never worked for my TomTom before, now does.
  No doubt the charges may be different for other TomTom models or other maps, but my experience suggests that you don't need to have a new TomTom to be able to subscribe to the map update service.

  Ive got a tomtom 700 andso has my Dad - we looked into this too and updated them about 3 weeks ago - we had to first buy the newest map pack but once this was installed we could then purchase the 7.95 a quarter updates pack.
  Its expensive but we didnt see the point in buying newer tomtoms when we only needed newer maps so we splashed the cash...
  hope this info helps.

  You can get odd maps on SD card from TomTom. Which is fine if your device has a slot for the card, not all do!
  But TomTom seem to make it almost compulsory for you to have an internet connection. It is the only way I know of to get Mapshare updates for example.
  As for downloading dodgy copies off the web. If as I say someone has uploaded their map folder to a site then it will be 100% useless to anyone else.
  TomTom maps have serial numbers. I suppose it is always possible that TomTom keep a record of dodgy serial numbers, who knows?
• #17

  The age of the device has some bearing on what version of maps you can load. But in the main new maps will work OK with older versions of software. However the age of the device - or more specifically the model range - does have a significant bearing on which level of software you can run.
  The current top level is ver 8.351 for the majority of newer models (x20 and above) but is not available for the x00 or x10 ranges. These are limited to ver 7.9. While it supports the current ver 8.3 maps you miss out on some functions. In particular IQ Routes.
  IQ Routes takes into consideration road conditions at various times of the day in calculating routes. So if the shortest route leaving at 8AM would mean sitting in a traffic jam for 20mins it will try an alternative to route round the regular hold ups. But might use the most direct route at 11Am when the jams have cleared.
  I very much doubt you will ever see ver 8 software for a GO 700. I upgraded a year ago from a GO 510 when it became very apparent TomTom were not looking like they would release ver 8 for that range. A year later and there is still no sign of ver 8 for the x10 range.
• #18

  Just thought, OP - it might be a hell of a lot cheaper for you just to get the UK & Ireland maps instead of Western Europe.
  Of course if you actually drive in Western Europe then that's a stupid suggestion
• #19

  Brilliant! Thanks for the replies folks. They have all been really helpful.
  All my software is updated on the device; it’s just the maps that are not and are quite a few years old now. I’ve been on the TomTom site and for the model of my sat nav (TomTom GO 700) it says I can buy v8.30 of the maps, which I think have just been released quite recently.
  A few people I know suggested trying to get them from torrent sites but I didn’t think that would work and I was worried in case it totally wrecked the device. As well of course, it’s illegal...
  So I think what I am going to do is to purchase them from the TomTom website as this seems to be the only place to get them from. And then I hope I can get the option for a subscription once I’ve done that, which I will probably buy as well to keep up with the updates.
  The UK and ROI maps are £39.95, so £30 less than the Western & Central Europe but then I was thinking of taking the sat nav away when I go on holiday and things because I am useless at map reading and get lost easily lol. So to me it would probably be worth the extra money.
  As I said in my original post, I’m not ready to buy a new sat nav yet because this one works fine at the moment. While it may not have some of the extra features that have been developed for newer models (whatever these may be, I’ve not looked into it), I can probably live without them (and I probably wouldn’t use them all anyway). I’ve never used the POI feature even after all these years – I might have a look to see what it actually is!
  I bet after all of this, the newer maps don't even change the inaccuracies I have originally noticed :rolleyes:
  Thanks again

  But at least you can use mapshare and change the ones that really annoy you!
• #21

  Ver 8.3 are the latest maps. But don't be at all surprised if you still find errors. For example at the junction of the A33 and Rose Kiln Lane to the south west of Reading there is a roundabout shown. Except it hasn't been there for three years at least! And I have reported it to TomTom several times.
  Oh well can but hope they eventually get the message.
  Once you have the latest version of the map you can then take out a subscription to get the quarterly(ish) updates which will work out a load cheaper than buying four new maps from scratch.
  Oh and if you haven't done so already make sure you are running the latest version of TomTom Home, free download from

  Except of course it won't correct the really really really irritating stuff like the brand spanking new road (built in 1998 :rolleyes:) that if it was just on the b*****y map would cut an hour off your journey time.:D

  There's a junction near me where Tomtom always wants me to turn right where there's a no right turn sign. I went into map share only to find it's already been corrected...but it still tells me to go that way every single time. Trips wouldn't be such fun if it was right 100% of the time

  I am also totally baffled by the routing decisions it sometimes takes. One of the ones that I never could crack was the junction of the A40 and A4142 in Oxford.

  Say you are coming from London to go to the BMW factory. The logical route is M40, A40 and turn south at this roundabout (if you can still call it that !) onto the A4142.
  If you look at the satellite photo in that link you will see there is a little slip road from the A40 westbound onto the A4142 southbound bypassing the lights at the entrance to the roundabout.
  But up to a few months ago there was virtually no way I could persuade the TomTom to use it. It was on the map plain as day. But it simply refused to acknowledge it existed. It insisted I drive up to the lights and waste god knows how long sitting at a red light rather than speed past all the queues and use this little strip of tarmac.
  Amazingly it was only a software upgrade that made the thing use this short cut! Go figure

  Does similar things round my house! Every street has a back lane here for bins etc, and it INSISTS that I use the back lanes to get around and not the streets themselves. It also thinks that 'home' is in the back lane, and not on the street...but the one back lane that's useful, and gives you a shortcut to the main road? Nope, doesn't want to use it, and only grudgingly admits that's where you are if you use it.
  Sometimes it's a bit like having a mate navigating, one who's really rubbish with maps. It's a pain in the bum but you still love 'em
  PS that's the wierdest roundabout I ever saw! It'd be a case of point the car at a lane and pray you don't end up in swindon...
