do i need to activate anything on my TTGO700? i see a lot of references to activating things but no where does it specify what units this is required for.

I can't find any option to activate on my TTGO700

All help very welcome

the map that is installed on your GO is already activated, and the activation key is stored on the device. If you add new mpas, or completely reformat the hard disk and start over then you will be asked to re-activate.

Hi Lutz

Is the activation key stored on the device or the maps in the SD Card?
What happens if you lose the activation key or the product code to get the activation key i dont have a problem at the moment but if i do i won't be able to get my activation key as i have lost/misplaced my product code.

Losing your product key is indeed a bad thing. You will need to explain that to TomTom, together with a proof of purchase, and ask them for a replacement key.

The activation key is obviously stored together with the maps. On the Linux units it seems to be linked to the Device ID AND to the SD card ID, so even switching SD cards may not be possible if you don't have your Product Key.
