Easy m8

As they are right outside your door, change preferences, arrow icon once, maintain poi, delete poi. Then click on the group you have entered them in (pocketgps uk gatso I presume). It will list the nearest gatsos to you starting with the closest. Click on the one you want rid and delete. If you do not know what name you have attributed to these "phantom" cameras go to browse map and tap on the gatso symbol. The poi name will be displayed.
This is how I have been getting rid of "phantom" cameras, I have had ttg for 4 days and already found 3 of em! 8O

thanks for that bruv, i was beginning to think it could not be done seeing as how many had read the post...you have sorted it, nice one.

No problem

First couple of days i couldnt work out what I was doing but suddenly you realise how easy ttg is to set up etc. I have just entered my favourite pub chains branches (140) and attributed my own icon to it although a bit blurry and bodged! Also I have been reporting phantom cameras and new cameras with cameras@pocketgpsworld.com adding and removing them myself as I go along. Try this forum http://www.expansys.com/forum.asp?code=TOMTOMGO it has some idiotproof guides for ttg issues. Not that i am saying you are an idiot of course I found it just as useful as this forum

Speaking personally, I think it's to everyone's benefit if people link to other sources of information. I don't see Pocket GPS World as in competition with other forums - sometimes there's useful material on sites run by various vendors, or on other sites like Pocket PC Club and Gpspassion.

Please continue to report errors in the camera database to the cameras email address - Richard will be glad to receive them. If possible, please report speed limits for cameras - whilst I'm not sure the Go can use the data, other systems can issue speed warnings if cameras are grouped into speed specific POI files. It's a long standing aim to issue the speed camera database with speed data included, but as we only have speeds for a small fraction of the cameras, it's not currently worthwhile.


As a final tip, you can make your links look even nicer if you use the format [url=http://whatever.invalid]this page[/url] - though that's entirely a personal thing.
