You now need to download two pieces of software in order to make the Tomplayer function on the ONE XL model, which are not needed for normal TomTom ONE models.


Note that the ?S? and ?R? are the only uppercase letters (I?m not sure whether it is necessary to do this, but I did it anyway because I read that the TomTom might not recognise the folder otherwise). Then change the name of the ?SDKRegistry? folder to ?SdkRegistry?. The TomTom will show an image indicating that the USB cable should not be removed. Paste the two folders that you copied in STEP 4. You are now inside your TomTom ?root? folder. After a short while the TomTom icon will appear in whichever removable port you used when you open ?My computer?. The TomTom will ask whether you would like to connect to your computer. Then connect it to your computer via USB. Highlight both of these folders and copy them (highlight then press ?Ctrl? + ?c?). Open it and you will see two folders called ?SDKRegistry? and ?tomplayer?. The only folder that is required is the one named ?distrib?. You will see a number of files and folders. Visit the following site and download Tomplayer: If you?re using Windows, the easiest way is to right click the TomTom icon in the icon tray on the bottom right of your computer and choose ?Exit?. Turn off TomTom Home if you have this installed on your computer. It?s actually a quick and simple procedure, but looks long-winded because I?ve written a detailed step by step guide from a noob?s point of view (which I am myself!). Some of the points below may need to be altered to suite your model.īy the way, don?t be daunted by the amount of instructions. It may work for other models / versions as well, but I haven?t tried. Please note: this is a guide for TomTom One XL version 8.010.

After much research, I finally managed to install Tomplayer on my TomTom One XL version 8.010.
