Problem with Tomtom Go 300 display

[Keithchr]

I previously posted this query in the beginners lounge but unfortunately received no replies:

I have TT Go 300 running latest software. The mobile phone icon is greyed out on the 1st menu screen and I cannot use it.

This is the mnu file entry:

MENUITEM|TASK_MENU_PHONE|

I noticed this has happened only since I installed POI capture.

Can any one help me restore the icon or tell me why it is now greyed out?

Thanks

You could try renaming the TomTom.mnu File, or move it, to see if it works OK with the built-in Default Menu.

If it does then something is wrong with the entry that you have in the MNU File.

Hi,

Thanks for that - it didn't work tho'. The only way to get the icon back, I have discovered, is to delete the sdk and poi capture files and reset the unit with a pin. Sadly, I lose all my faves etc doing it this way.

The .mnu entry is correct otherwise it wouldn't display on the screen (would it??!)

Have you tried Enabling Bluetooth, in Preferences?

You shouldn't lose your Favourites by doing a Reset. It doesn't delete any Files, only causes the Device to re-boot from the SD Card.

As an aside, why not store your Favourites as a POI? It is transferable then.

Thanks for your time Richard,

I already had bluetooth enabled in the menu.

Could you tell me how to save the favourites as a POI?

I appreciate your help.

Many thanks.
