After installing v5.2, I can't see my UK Mobile camera POIs (from 30mph-TBA) although i can see the files on the SD card via pc's windows explorer. All other POIs are present. Anyone have the same problem? What is the solution? Also, if i want to install v5.1 back can i just install on top of v5.2?

Well, i reinstalled v5.1 and TTG can see all my POIs again.

I thought i had a problem with my PC initially, so i rebooted the PC and installed v5.2 again. The result was the same, i couldn't see the UK Mobile Camera POIs. The total number of POIs i have are less than 40.

I have gone back to v5.1

What are the minor updates and are they worth updating in v5.2? I found v5.1 worked very well.

Anyone having similar problems with v5.2? As far as i can see, it's only a POI problem, all other features work the same as before.

Are you still on the original 128 MB card? It may not be big enough if you have a lot of extras. Have you deleted all the unneeded foreign voices?

I am using a 512MB SD card of which 216MB has been used.

I have never had any problems updating versions 4.21, 4.4, 5.0. and 5.1. But 5.2 gives me problems, sometimes my PC won't see TTG when connected via the usb (after installing v5.2). Not sure whether that is a PC problem, tho i never had this happen in previous versions.

I am wondering whether there is anything to do with v5.2 and the new maps v571 together. It seems like people who have sucessfully upgraded to v5.2 have the older maps. Please correct me if i'm wrong.

My camear POIs are ok but lost a couple of extra POI files.

I have 29 evtra.ov2 files but it will only show 27 of them.

I have old maps.

Yes, i've counted how many extra POI catergories it shows after installing v5.2 and it is 27. So it looks like TT have put a limit of 27 with v5.2, where it was 40 before.

Is there any reason for tomtom to put the limit on?

To make it easier to sell their own speed camera database? Rolling Eyes

If it is the case that they have limited it to 27 POI's why is it always the speed camera POI's that go missing?? Same thing happened to me.
