XL 1 gb rebooting

Tue Nov 01, 2016 10:05 am

hi, i have a tomtom XL with navcore 9540.2 and iberia map, and when i put a longer route like 150kms, and it recalculates a route, it keeps crashing, a friend of mine told me that it could be the rom memory, it doesnt have a sd slot, its the 1gb version.

Exactly which Iberia map do you have installed...is it a fully featured map?

I suspect the reason will be that your trying to run a fully featured map on a limited 32MB RAM device and it's running out of memory so reboots.

The solution is to either use a limited featured map (without ALG etc)....or install a specially modified navcore that has an inbuilt 'swap' file that you can download from here

im using Iberia_975_7748, one thing that i notice is if is a small route it goes great, it longer like 150kms, it freezes at recalculating and reboots, what map should i look for in your oppinion?

im using the navore you mentioned, its faster recalculating. Download : NC 9.510installer1.1.exe, so nest step should look for another map, a smaller one?

Actually a 975.7748 is a limited features map so you shouldn't have had any problems in the first place...do you have a lot of POI's enabled?

Anyway, if you've installed the navcore for the 32MB devices, you should be good to go now with no more rebooting?
