Backup / Restore TomTom Android Settings & Favourites

Found this tool on another forum & hopefully I have made an easy enough guide for you to follow.


1. Download TT-Android-BackUp-Restore.rar (5,46 MB)

Code:

---

---

2. Extract TT-Android-BackUp-Restore.zip to PC


3. Enable USB Debugging in phone (Settings - Developer options - Tab USB debugging ).

To get this to work on my Galaxy S4 & on my Tab 3 - go to 'Settings' - 'More' - 'About Device' - scroll down to - 'Build Number' & tap on Build Number @ 7 times, or until you see a message saying 'Developer mode has been enabled'. Now go back & select - 'More' - Under Developer options, tap

'USB Debugging' - & then tap - OK.


4. Connect your device to PC by USB.


5. Run BackUp-Restore.bat file from the extracted folder on your PC. Accept it on phone when asked.

If you are using a different map to the ukireland map you will first have to edit the BackUp-Restore.bat file.

Edit line 3 to your own package, this copy is set to - com.tomtom.ukireland

To edit the BackUp-Restore.bat file - Right mouse click on it and the select EDIT option.

The first 3 lines are as currently as follows (second line is blank) :-

@echo off

SET AREA=ukireland



so just change ukireland to the same name as on your 'com.tomtom.*********' folder

@echo off

SET AREA=*********


You might have to run this tool a couple of times.
After using it you should have a folder named '~TTdata' inside the folder named 'TT-Android-BackUp-Restore'. Inside the ~TTdata folder will be a file named 'TTdata' (.AB file). I used it to successfully copy my Settings & Favourites from my S4 to my Tab3.

Thanks to pietu for this tool.

[Edit] - Unsuccessful in trying to copy from Tab3 to S4

Hi Russell1 been using this tool works 5star ver1.32 to ver 1.32 from ver 1.32 to 1.4 dont work as i use 2 phones Samsung duos and
s2 and update both as i use s2 mostly for sat nav. Wanted to update to 1.4 spent many hours trying to transfer faves no go
downgraded to 1.32 hey presto works again, as i now stay in thailand for 11 months of the year i have a lot of favs to keep, I havent tried 1.4 to 1.4 might work but i have over 100 faves i cannot lose lol. so something to be aware of if you rely on you sat nav like i do lol
best regards Mike
PS at least I can use the latest map by poping it in the tomtom folder and renaming the old one beforehand
