Navcore 7 For Go Classic And Go 300! And Handsfree Fix Too?

stuart · Posted: Wed Nov 21, 2007 4:06 pm Post subject: Updated my TTG0500

The first time I connected my TTG500 up to Home yesterday evening it offered me the update but knocked it back to version 6.50
So did it again and all went well to V 7.161
Had to reset the POI warnings ect but it seems to be faster..But maybe its me getting slower.
Confused

TTH2 recommended I upgrade my TT from V7 operating system to V7.161 (which I have done). When I turn off the TT it will not turn back on again without removing/reinserting the SD card. I am running a TTOV2 Europe with V7.10 maps and TT 7.161.

Anyone else finding this?

Just logged case with TT re above issue. Reverted back to a previous version of ttsystem file from a backup (just restored the ttsystem not the whole SD card). TT working properly again with TT OS 7.131

Anyone else got problems?

I did this and pressed reset when the unit failed to boot. Works OK.

Here we go: the answer from TT re the case I lodged. Seems like the same as mentioned...

In most likelihood it is a space issue on the internal memory/SD card of your Tom Tom.

Please connect your Tom Tom to your computer and then switch it on. Go into My Computer (Start menu or Desktop) and open the Tom Tom/Removable Disc drive. Keep ALL yellow folders but delete everything else. You will then have deleted the existing application. Now reinstall the version 7.161 software again. This should resolve the issue. However if it does not it will mean that the space on the Tom Tom is very limited not allowing it to proceed past the splash screen.

Another method would be to copy the Western Europe, Voices and Zip folders to your computer. Go back to the main My Computer screen, right-click on the Tom Tom/Removable Disc drive and select Format. Format the SD card/internal memory of your Tom Tom system. Once this is done, copy the three folders back onto the Tom Tom. Now reinstall the application using Tom Tom HOME. This should allow you to run the application.

With Best Regards

The TomTom Customer Support Team

Update: tried second method above but wanted to install App 6.56. Reloaded SD Card pressed the reset button and all is OK so I doubt it is a space issue. There is about 20Mb spare on the card which is about what it came with.

Since upgrade to v7 on my classic, the camera alerts don't work for en-route only, I've ticked all the boxes but still warns of cameras on the other side of the road.

This was mentioned on the other side, several people having the same problem.

It's a feature not a problem (as far as TT are concerned!) Laughing

As I said on t'other side -

Helps with their incorrectly placed POIs and makes their rival's camera database work less well. That's two pluses in their book!

I think It's happened slowly over at least two software updates (possibly once in v6 and then again between v6 and v7.

I did read your post on the other side Andy, I thought if I posted on here, the PGPS team may come up with a solution. It is gonna be a big knock-back for them as a lot of people just won't bother using the database, too much irrelevant information being thrown at you while you're driving Crying or Very sad

Try using the TomTom database and you will notice the same thing, in addition you will notice warnings for cameras that simply are not there and no warnings for some that are live.
Version 7 software seems to have widened the field of view even when set to "warn only if on route" when compared to earlier versions, there is very little that could be done to alter camera positions to cater for this, the database is accurate and that is the main consideration - it is the software that is causing the problem, roll back to version 6 and watch the problem vanish - Mike
