loading the speed camera capture onto my Tom Tom 910

[jimmymerlin]

Hi
I am sorry if I am in the wrong forum but can anyone help me with this problem??????

I would like to notify GPS world of a mobile speed camera that does not show up on the latest update but I am stuck!!!!!!

I have downloaded the file from the site but don't know what to do with it.

Can anyone give me a REALLY BASIC step by step guide as to how I download and store this onto my tom tom ( and then I suppose let me know how I actually use it!!!!! )

Many thanks

Jimmy

PS. Please keep it simple if at all p;ossible !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Paul I think you are too far ahead. He hasn't got POICapture on his Device yet!!

Jimmy the instructions are on the Download Page.

Did you download V1.06G?

Basically you have 2 Folders - POICapture and SdkRegistry

When you unzip the download, just Copy/Paste the 2 Folders to the Root of the 910.

Used like this the POICapture Icon will appear on the last Page of the Main Menu. If you want it on the first page, usual choice, then you need to create a file called TomTom.mnu and this goes into the SdkRegistry Folder.

A Search for tomtom.mnu will bring up different sample menus. You could try a Menu Builder that you can download from www.gregoryduncan.com/ttmd

With this you can just leave out the Menu Items that you don't use, and include those that you do.

Hi Oldboy,

Sorry to trouble you again, but I did say i needed simple instructions to follow !!!!!!

I have copied the file V1.06G to my PC hard drive.

Following the instructions on the download page, instruction 1 says "

"Use the File Explorer to extract the POICapture ZIP file to the root directory of your GO"

I'm sorry but I don't know how to do this.

Also when I read further on in the write up it mentions the tom tom 300, 500 and 700 but it does not mention the 910 ( which is the one I have). Are the instrcuctions still the same?

Many thanks

jimmy

The instructions are the same. The 910 is not mentioned because it wasn't around when POICapture was created.

If you Right Click the Zip File you should be able to use Open with. You can use the XP Unzip utility, or something like WinZip.

This will create 2 Folders. I personally Unzip to a Folder on my PC, and then use Explorer to copy them to my GO.

I posted a link, HERE, on the tomtom.mnu for someone else who was having the same problems as yourself.
