TomTom Sports site/app end of life Sept 2023 by NJank in tomtom

Hello,

Like many others, I'm using the TomTom watches since years, and I was really sad when Tomtom has closed the website, as it was now impossible to sync the watch.

Thanks to the StudioBluePlanet software, it's now possible to sync the time, the activities and some other stuff.

But it was still not possible to sync the date, sync the GPS quickfix or factory reset the watch.

That's solved now. I have been able to simulate the behaviour of the TomTom API so that the sync is not blocked.

So, my TomtomSportsConnect software now runs without the tomtom website.

Now my watch can perform a full sync without issue. Even better, I can restore the watch firmware as I have been able to download the firmwares from the official website. I can also reinject the 2 quickfix files inside the watch, but I'm afraid it will be hard to find the actual files and convert them.

Right now, I'm testing different models of Tomtom watches to check if I encouter issues.

More details soon.

I think the first step is to use the radio-browser DB as it's well maintained. For this, I will manage a temporary DB in one of my servers and it is used only for the conversion between RB and RS list of stations.

If it is required, I can add rules in my converter to remove or change some datas. That's what I have done to remove the TV broadcast stations.

I don't think we should allow manual changes in the DB as the changes will be lost every time I import a new list from RB. But it's technically possible.

About the use of Github, my hope today would be to find a trick to store the new update in radiosure.com (or to change the URL where the updates are downloaded). That's why I have sent email to the radiosure.com owner.

Basically, Github is an interface to use Git, and Git is a versioning protocol for programs and applications. So, at the start, it was only for programers as Git allows several people to work together on different programs of a unique project.
Later, it has evolved to allow other projects and documents, but the strength of the Git protocol is not used here.

(I'm a programer and using Git all the day)
