|
|
Over the last couple of days I've found out (the hard way) that the new TomTom Go 1XXX and VIA ranges currently synchronise up via a new online tomtom application and don't have either an SD card interface or appear as a USB drive when connected to your PC.
This effectively renders them completely useless for downloading custom POI's to (i.e. caches) from GSAK or other sources.
TomTom have allegedly indicated that they plan to update the operating system on these at some point during the first quarter of this year to resolve this, but until then I cant see any way to electronically download data to these devices. _________________ www.BigWolf.co.uk |

Nice try! Mrs Santa bought one for her own car and naturally I had a play with it and found out that it was useless as a back up! _________________ www.BigWolf.co.uk |

Managed to upload caches to my new tomtom start 25 which also uses the new "My Tomtom" interface, found that there is an option at the bottom right of the screen when you connect the device, with community pois in it, which then allows you to upload from GSAK. _________________ "It's not whether you get knocked down.
