Thread: Tuto: Adding voices to new (2015) Tomtom Go Mobile App

Tutorial
Adding recorded voices (coming from older versions of Tomtom) into the new Tomtom Go Mobile App

I give you an automatic script for a simplest way of adding voices:

1) Launch Tomtom Go Mobile with your smarphone and add, with the voice menu, one (or more) voice (it will be replaced by your old voice during the script).

MANDATORY: only foreign recorded/canned voices can be managed and replaced by the script.

2) Create a new directory into your computer.

3) Copy within your(s) old version voice files (There is two files called "data<xxx>.chk" and "data<xxx>.vif") as well as the file "content.db" located in your smartphone at:

<Phone>\Android\data\com.tomtom.gplay.navapp\files\

4) Clic on this new directory, or on one of its files, and make a "Drag&Drop" over the script name "Add_voice_to_Tomtom_GO_Mobile.cmd".

5) During the script, you will be asked to select :

• The foreign canned voice you want to replace into your Tomtom Go Mobile.
  
• The new old voice name you want to install for replacement into your Tomtom Go Mobile.

6) A new selection loop is done until the end of the foreign canned installed voices list or the "Cancel" button selection.

7) Script will create, into the directory containing your 3 files, a sub-directory called "New voice files".

You can find into :

• A file ""content.db"" modified which include the modification for the new old voice.
  
• One (or many) directory whose name is a number and that contains new old voice files (Premium voices with ".dct" file activation are supported actually).

8) Select all directories whose name is a number and replace the same directories into your smartphone at :

<SDCard>\Android\data\com.tomtom.gplay.navapp\files\data\voices\

9) Select the new "content.db" file et replace the same file into your smartphone at :

<Phone>\Android\data\com.tomtom.gplay.navapp\files\

10)With DEBUG Mode, this script generate (into the originals files directory) 2 SQLite files called "plaintext_ORIG.db" and "plaintext_MOD.db" which respectively correspond
to the original "Content.db" file and the one newly created. They are editable via the Firefox PlugIn "SQLite Manager".

11) Enjoy your news voices with Tomtom Go Mobile !!
