Robin2, what you have described is how I would approach this, by putting the LoquendoTTS folder on the card first when you use WinRar to extract the Navcore to the card it will only replace the two files within the /bin and /lib sub folders during the installation, everything else will remain as before - Then it should work - Mike

I gave my updated 920T (software on device, maps on card) a 4.5 hour trip back from Cambridge yesterday. The suttering has gone, and the volume on Kate was fine. However the volume on the PGPSW camera warnings is significantly lower than before!

I have had quite a few lockups and resets now with 8.350 on my 930.

Never had any problem on previous version.

Done nearly 150 miles since Thursday with update still not noticed any problems voice could be a bit louder but if I take the tick out of link to noise Kate blasts out instructions.

Have noticed that when playing music it does stutter the last word before instruction given but thats minor.

Shadow under car icon nice touch.

Fingers crossed I'll stay happy Very Happy

Most users seem to not get the problem with the device being locked when connecting it to a computer. So what’s the difference to those being affected?

Some months ago I had a problem with my first TT 720 so I got a new one from the TomTom support. The new was a refurbished device with Boot loader version: 5.5120 (my original device had Boot loader v 1.0012).

It would be of some interest to see if the locking problem is connected to a particular version of the boot loader.

If you got the time, could at least some of you please post your version number and a note whether that version works or not?

Maybe this could help users anticipate what devices will work by investigating their boot loader version before downloading 8.350.

How to obtain the boot loader version from a TT 720 (and perhaps other TT-devices):
1) Power on
2) On the default map window, tap to the right at the bottom of the status bar
3) Tap on the rectangle to the right, near the bottom of the window, where the version number is displayed
4) On the 4:th line you can see the GPS version and the “Boot version”.

My boot version is 5.5120 and it is not working.

My 720 seems to work perfectly with Boot Loader 5.5120

No problems with my voice volume on my GO 940 with latest Navcore 8.350.8890 and Bootloader 5.5120!

Hi JaTe Glad someone else has picked up on this. If you go through the postings you can see quite a few people reporting this but it hasn't had the same impact as the low volume prob

JaTe, I have the same issue you describe. Every 20-30 seconds, I lose all map detail for a second. It always re-appears. Have reported it to the people that need to know, but so far, its not a widely reported problem!

Upgraded software on 920T (after some huge hassle & reformats) volume seems fine to me, I cannot tell a difference.

I do however have a problem with screen refresh, as I am travelling, EVERY few seconds the screen goes off for a split second and then back on. I have tried reading about this issue but dont see what causes or a fix.

Is there a solution to cure the screen refresh?

Thank you
Andy

I'm also getting the screen refresh problem since updating. When it happens, which is most of the time, it's about every 15 secs. I lose all map detail for a second and then it comes back. It's really getting on my nerves!

I think I'll have to revert to previous version, I'll have to go back to my backup and lose stuff I did since then. Mad

Also, I don't know if this makes any sense but it seems a full battery is only lasting about 45 minutes now!!! Anyone else noticing a sudden shortening of battery life?
