After reading the posts on here and getting a response from tomtom about how to cure problems, i am now completely confused as to what set up is probably the most reliable and best at the moment.
Can someone advise me whats the best way to go with this. im running a 720 app 8320 & map v815.2003 using computer voice kate.
Would really appreciate any help on this

thanks in advance

Thanks

Try the 8,320 release on the device and EPT should work fine Wink

Hi Infama
The 8.204 runs perfectly on my TomTom 720 too. I am fully aware that its not the correct application for my device but like you I don’t want to give it up either. The Icons look very good and the whole thing looks quite professional.

Hi batties
No, I’m afraid that would require more expertise than I possess. However, I have no doubt someone will give you an answer.

I seemed to have stumbled on the circumstance that causes the stuttering problem (or at least makes it more likely to happen) on my 920T
(I'm running 8.301 and the Kate v7 voices at the moment).

OK, so firstly it does seem to require a certain road pattern and road name complexity to occur, but I have found a particular section of road that I can reliable cause stuttering in the Demo mode.
This has allowed me to experiment and it 100% reliably stutters on this test *only* when the unit is Charging.
Now, here's the important bit, I don't mean while it's plugged into the power, but when the unit actually says it's "Charging" under the battery icon on the info screen.

Now the next intereting thing I noticed is, even if the battery is not 100% charged, if I turn the brightness of the screen up to 100%, even though it is plugged into the power, my 920T does *not* say it's "Charging".

So by setting the brightness to 100%, it *never* stutters on my test stretch of road, but if I set the brightness to 0% it *always* stutters (unless it's 100% charged in which case it never stutters on eithr setting).

I realise it's only a simuted case using the Demo, so there may be other factors involved in the real-world driving scanario, but if it is something to do with the charging it might explain why some people have the problem while others don't. If you do have the problem try setting your brightness to 100% (and turn of the auto dim) and see if it improves things. Worth a try at least!
