My TomTom 730T switches off & on by it self

[Steveee]

I got a fairly quick response from TT and they enabled my TT Home account (after the usual hurdles of copy of invoice, serial number etc) to update the new TT GO 920. Installed maps (720) and v8.3.

Gave the device a tough etst with a trip from Colchester to Amstrerdam to Brussels to Colchester. I used TMC and bluetooth, receiving a number of calls whilst on the move.

No real problems otehr than a reboot whilct in the Leopold tunnel in Brussels. Device restarted quickly (volume reset itself to 100%!) but no reports of file errors.

Have to say I was impressed with TMC. It diverted me around Antwerp as it reported up to 45 min delays. The route it took me was empty and I joined the normal route just 200 metres before the end of the queue. It was a major accident with cranes, cutting gear, police and fire in attendance. There must have been major delays.

Got another big trip in three weeks, but overall initial feelings are that the problem has been fixed for me. I have seen some reports of issues with v8.3 but I will wait and see as I still have over 6 months on my warranty.

I may upgrade to the 815 maps as well.

Following the upgrade to Navcore 8.3 and WE Maps 815 all the reload problems appear to have been fixed. Just completed a 500 mile round trip with no reloads or crashes. I was running RDS-TMC, BT handsfree (took a number of calls) and FM radio playing MP3 files with no problems.

As reported in a number of other threads the stuttering voice and slow refresh problems have been introduced.

On reflection, I am happier with the stuttering voice and slow refresh problem as at least I know my GO920 is working
