AFAIK that's correct. The XL/x10's don't/can't use the IQRouting

Mike's fix has worked a treat for me - thanks Mike.

I'll stick with 8.3 until such time as TomTom release Navcore with a fix in it - if ever.

Check this out guys.
I just got this E-mail from TomTom support about update v8.301

Dear customer,

Thanks for the e-mail. This update did not fix the issues with the voices or the FM transmitter issue.
Again, we do not have a time frame to offer you on when another update will be released. This current update is not a full update, it was mainly for our Australian customers who were having map share issues.
It does not affect the US customers.

For a temporary fix, it is possible to back track. This can be done two ways. The first is if you did a back up prior to the 8.3 application release, then you could possibly restore this back up for a temporary fix.

The other option is that we can offer you a older application that you can manually install onto your unit. The only other issue is that we would have to offer you an older map to use for the time being as the 8.15 map will not work with an application less than 8.3. Please do let me know if this is something you are interested in.

With Kind Regards,
Customer 02/13/2009 03:30 PM
I would like to know if the update that we just got ( v8.301 ),is suppose to fix the problems.
I did the upgrade and it is the same.
Or are we getting another update soon?

so this 8.320 i take this is better than 8.301, is there anything missing off 8.320 before install ..

and why do have to install LoquendoTTS after doing 8.320?

tt 530 ..

Everything works as normal, the FM Transmitter for navigation voices won't work but that is intentional due to EU law.

Updating the TTS voices from what are currently on the devices to the new ones is all part of the process to reduce stammer, Map refresh issues etc.

If you follow the "how to" on page 28 it will work - deviate from the order each step takes and there is a chance it won't unless you know and understand what is going on when you update software manually.

I got fed up with 8,300 around Christmas so started playing around with this, once the 8,301 was released I tried it for a few days and noticed it was no better than the 8,300 it superseded, so I have gone back to 8,320 on the devices and they are useable again - Mike
