Could I suggest that, when anyone reports on their experience after "tweaking" their x20, they remind us what it was they did to the device, to save us all going back through all the pages of the thread trying to find their previous posts.

Thanks. Smile

I have a 520 with 5.10 maps and 5.300 navcore. Few POI's turned on and no jukebox, TMC or 3rd party apps in use. No voice file tweaks.

I did a 210 mile route yesterday and kate worked fine all day. Today I did almost exactly the same route in reverse, and kate stuttered quite a lot, usually in built up areas IIRC. Not done anything diffent to her today to my knoweldge.

I tested it today on a 50 miles trip.....My go 720 has stutter issue ONLY when is charging.NO problems at all when it is running on battery.

Andy, thanks for the TTS v7 link.

I will be using my 720 all day tomorrow for deliveries, will see how she goes.

Tried it in demo and it seems ok. I also noticed in home it tells me this version of voice will not work on my device.

720 with original tts files.
I popped in to our local town and it was terrible today. I would say it was missing more than it was saying, it was unusable.
I tried it with the RDS TMC plugged in and removed, and also with the charger in and not plugged in, but it was the same.
Going to call tomtom now.

I guess every x20 owner and their dog is phoning tomtom support as I am unable to get through. Not even getting an automated response.

It likely means there is no solution to the problem yet that can be resolved by using existing files, firmware or through known procedures like hard or soft resets.

Or in other words.........so far they don't know how to fix it. Crying or Very sad

Now been running with X30 files on my 720 since Friday and not one stutter - including a trip to central London yesterday and a 200 mile round trip today.
Don't have TMS of any sort so can't check that though i was using the mp3 player via FM most of the way.

Understandably, the Loquendo file in the link is for 730's and WE Map voices.

Is there a similar link for North American computer voices? (probably not since anyone wanting or needing NA computer voices would have a 930, not a 730)

But, I can hope................. Razz
