to the forum.

Now please give us a bit more info on what you've done. ...

1. How did you do the backup? (using Tom Tom Home may not be a FULL backup, Windows Explorer SHOULD be, providing you were Showing All Files and Extensions. And the best backup of all is to copy your SD card, then use only the copy so that you can go back to the original card if necessary). I am hesitant to start advising on how to get back to your original state until I know how well you know to muck about with computer and 510.
2. Which cameras have you loaded - the ones from this site?
3. Where did you place the cameras?
4. How did you go about the voices?
5. Where did you place the voices?
6. Have you used or disabled the already included Tom Tom cameras?

Have a read of This Page:
#1 For Back-up, do this anyway - (before anything else)
#5 For spoken alerts
#13 For removal of TomTom speed cams.

In addition to the above have a look in your map folder using Windows Explorer, then delete any file with an extension of ov2 (these are the POI files).

Now download and install a fresh set of speed camera POI, configure them for warnings and give it a try (note to avoid using petrol checking its working) use Advanced Planning set a departure and destination that produces a route passing a camera. Then use Show Route Demo, set the speed to 100%(ish) and watch/ listen - The route speed can be a lot higher but using 100% will ensure the warning is given by the device (one less variable to contend with Wink

) - Mike

Go back to Change Preferences/ Manage POI/ Warn if POI on Route and re-configure each of your warnings, select the camera POI from the list, answer NO when it asks you to remove the POI warning, then set your new distance, and de-select the "Warn only if POI on Route" checkbox. Repeat the above for each camera POI you have installed - Mike
