My friends dad has a TomTom (not sure which one) with a speed camera database on it, when he comes up to a speed camera he gets a talking speed camera warning that says 'Warning Gatso ahead speed limit ??mph'.

Is it possible to get this on a TomTom One V3 as it is so much better than just the normal warning tone.


Thanks Cool

Yes it is possible, just use the ogg files and methods described on This Page, the files are available for download from the page I linked to. The Liz Whitt voice pack is a very good one and there is a free navigation voice pack that she recorded some time ago so you can have the nav and alerts in the same voice.

If its a One Third Edition then things are slightly different as there is no Change Preferences/ Manage POI/ Warn When Near POI Instead you just go to page two of the Change preferences menu and select Warn When Near POI - Unless you are running a custom menu, but spoken alerts certainly do work on this device - Mike

The ogg files combined with the Speed camera database from this site will work on any TomTom device running version 5 or newer software - Mike
