tomtom on i-mate k-jam

A couple of years ago I had an O2 xda mini s and it was a disaster, needinga soft reset several times a day. I then tried an xda iis and that was slightly better but still no good as a phone & satnav because it made a chunky t chunk noise every time it was in use as a satnav as it was finding another phone mast and in reality it was too big as a phone.

I borrowed an I-mate K-jam off a friend last week (xda mini s without the badging and O2 software) and it's been great as a phone so far. Can anyone advise how well it runs tomtom please? If it's half decent i'll try a gps unit with it because I have the oppurtunity to buy it. Thanks, Dave

Full postcodes work fine on this unit, are you selecting Navigate To/ Address/ Postcode as things are slightly different with the software, you must select the postcode icon to type in a full postcode.

If you are making the correct selectioon you must have something wrong on the device can you check the following:

1/ is there a folder named "zip" in the root of the memory card
2/ is there a Great_Britain.postal file in the zip folder

If the answer to the above is yes for both questions, is there a folder named "tomTom" in the root of the memory card? - if not create it, it doesn't need anything in it - Mike

No problems at all...this was my old/replaced device that I am shortly putting on Ebay, complete with TT5. I did ask a question however, which to date hasn't been answered. Are you guys (PGPS) happy that I can leave your camera data on it as well ?
