Having upgraded my 720 in the last week or so everything is running fine except that I cant download any start up or shutdown sounds as Home indicates my device doesnt support them. It does because I have them loaded on an SD card and when the device is switched to the card the start up and shutdown sounds work fine.

Is this a .bif file thing or something else that is greying out the ...

I have a Tomtom start since 1 year. Last week I replace the map by the new 875 map of South Europe.
But is it normal that TomTom home suggest me to update the map 865 and doesn't suggest me the map share update?

Sorry for my English^^

Using intelligence derived from this forum, I've previously succesfully updated Navcores and maps on TT Ones (two different generations), a TT 510 and a Smartphone and therefore felt confident enough to offer to update my brother-in-laws (then fully operational!!) TT XL IQ Routes Edition AK*** DA*** App 9.056. 542741.2 OS 541764 W&CE 2GB 835.2419.
I copied (backed up) the device contents and then connected to TomTom Home which recommended an update of the Navcore to ...

Last week having successfully updated my Go720, I decided to try the same with an old Go 700.

I backed up the old working system and then deleted the contents of the hard drive then I loaded the new 8412 Navcore and a 875.3613 map.
All seemed to be well and initially I had a fault because Fast Activate couldnt find the .bif file. I rebooted the device and was then able to open the ...

What is the best navcore to use that is functional that is not stock? I have a complete back up already of stock, looking to experiment. Also, anyway of getting fuel pricing or anything like that for US? :)

This is all getting to be just way to much fun. :-)
I'm trying to bluetooth connect to my HTC Touch Pro. Why? Because I think I can.
My TT does find my phone and tries to do something then comes up with a message about something needed not being either on my phone or not correct and doesn't pair.

My Touch Pro is stock and running WM6.1 still. Am I missing something in the ...

Recently upgraded to go 950 with hd traffic which i really need.

I would like to upgrade to latest map but if I run the patch the unit would crash and traffic would not load properly.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I have been using TT Home to back up my TT before playing with it but I've been reading here that all I really need to do is copy everything on my TT to a backup folder on my PC.
OK, that sounds cool and easy. Well, my first attempt at doing an update went very bad, my own darned fault, so I figured I'd just copy everything BACK to my TT or at least ...
