Time of day is related to using the IQ-2 Routes though, so I guess if you were travelling at mid day but the device thought it was 17:00 locally this would mess up the calculations, perhaps I should re-install the 8,300 application and 815 map then use the device deliberately off setting the time to rush hour to see if the stammer and slow refresh is time of day related.............
Second thoughts I will leave it running 8,320 - its not 100% due to other bugs but its the best I have tried since 8,010 - Mike

I have been abroad for three weeks and they STILL haven't sorted it out!? Stop it!

I have been running 8.320 for a few days now - it seems to fix the isues with 8.300.

I have been using Kate TTS7, I haven't had chance to try with a TTS6 voice but I suspect it might work as none of the lag or occasional stutter with 8.300 and TTS7 appear to be present.

Hi Andy, did you get offered 8.32 navcore? I have just tried updating and it tells me that 8.30 is the latest one for my device.

TT Support Joker

have sent me a very lengthy e.mail with instructions which basically strip everything out of the unit, then reformat it. It sounds like a desperate straw clutch to me. Happy

Tom, do not follow those instructions. I got the same 2 weeks ago and it nearly crippled my GO920 and the backup would not work Twisted Evil

Luckily I had an old backup tucked away that did work.

TT Support just sent me a new solution reinstalling Kate v700 Rolling Eyes

Seems to match many other similar solutions here, but this one is sanctioned by TT Support. I will test next week and if it works will encourage TT Support to distribute it as a fix for the stuttering problem. Razz

To install this to your device I use WinRar which you can download from Here Switch the TomTom on and connect it to your PC, if TomTom Home starts up exit the application as Home isn't needed for this.

Double click the file you have downloaded from the TomTom server and winrar will fire up, use the mouse to select all files and folders then click "Extract To"

Please note this picture is from a different version to 8,320 but is used for illustration purposes

Locate the drive letter associated with your TomTom and click it, make sure the Overwrite mode is selected to "Ask before overwrite", then press "OK"

When the dialogue box pops up saying "Confirm File Replace" click the "Yes To All" button.

Sit back and watch the progress bar, with a good USB2 connection a Navcore 8,320 installation will take around 2 minutes.

When its finished the update use the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon from the Task Tray and remove the lead from the device.

Let the device boot up and tap the sat strength meter (lower left) followed by the version box, the resultant screen will confirm the version installed is Navcore 8,320 - Mike

8.32 installed OK following the method outlined above.

However, TT Home is giving problems. I get a message saying "This function is not yet supported for your navigation device or operating system" when I use the "Operate your Go" command.

Anyone else seen this message after the update or otherwise?

I have tried a reset on the 920 and also checked the files against the back up.
