I have pocket pc running on Vodafone VPX (same as QTEC 2020 XDA etc) with ttn5. I recently had problems with maps running really slow and jumpy. Bought new 1GB SD card to solve problem following recommendation from this forum and chose to uninstall and reinstall ttn5 to clean it all up. Problem is now solved except I can not get postcodes to work. I have done the usuall "add an empty file called tomtom on to the SD card but this has not done the trick. I just get a list of the most recent place names? any ideas? it's really starting to annoy me!

Have you got a Folder called "Zip" with a File inside called Great_Britain.Postal?

Contact TT on 0845 1610009 and I believe they have a link to a Postcode File download.

Hey, I'm just so thankful for this forum. Whenever I have had a problem, it has always been sorted within 24 hrs, often quicker, by posting on the forum. Emailing tomtom takes ages!
Keep up the good work guys & girls!
