Navcore 8.2 available for download from TomTom

So if x20 users don't have the ability to use the enhanced features that comes with the x40 units, because of hardware differences, doesn't that negate the point of installing Navicore 8,2 update in the first place?

Icons are nicer, smoother, switching on when off (!) appears fixed (mine hasn't done it yet) so although minor improvements, they do make it a nicer machine!
Again, what have you to lose - it isn't going to self destuct!!

My Computer voices don't work, but I have decided to leave it on for now, one of the better things is that the bar along the bottom has been removed, moving the directions, satellite strength etc. down a little, the next road is now in the top right hand corner, and "feels" better. So even though the Computer Voices do not and will not work I am leaving it on (for now anyway).

Seems just to work on my 720 ... not super brave, but will leave it on for now, I like the icons, and the interface seems responsive

Does TomTom Plus work?

My Voices also don't work. Can get them to sound when hitting the "Test" button, but no actual direction instructions at all.

Anyone found a way round this yet?

Hi all.I still have the same problem of no voices upon install of the x40 no matter what I try ( see previous posts ). Even though I would love to have it as I think that it is far nicer looking.....I am resigned to waiting to see if Tomtom will make it available. Breath holding is not an option.

As I said earlier in this thread - if all you want is the nice new looking icons run a custom menu on the device configured to use the new icons, this is possible using anythin from version 5,2 all the other stuff from the x40 range won't work on the x20/ x30 with software installed as you don't have the correct map or access to the Live server - Mike

Hi Mike. Please can you let me know where I can get a custom menu from, I used to have the link but have lost it when my computer crashed.Thank-you.Mark.

A custom menu using custom icons is a little more involved than what you can do with the likes of the scux menu builder, you need to put bmp files into a specific folder of each of the icons.
I will detail how this is done later today, its not difficult and can be achieved using the Paint and NotePad applications on the PC - Mike
