Have you tried running a store card beneath the display frame all around the frame as sometimes it gets bent or dust collects and causes all sorts of ghostly things to happen?

Strange as we bought 2 TT Go 520's and mine has been a dream and only reset once.


It would be a lot stranger if they both did it!

Haven't tried this as both units are just over a month old.

Have exactly the same on my 720 with 8.3 on it. I'm sure it's a software issue rather thn hardware. A previous software version (can't remeber which) was lengendary for doing it. Other interim ones were fine. Now it seems it's back.

It's really annoying (and dangerous) that it also ditches your last destination too.

I've added it to my list of things that have me losing faith with the device on a daily basis.
