Posted: Mon Jul 05, 2010 9:35 pm Post subject: 950 Live freezing |
|
|
I've had my 950 Live for a couple of months now, and it has worked as advertised. However, I'v just spent 3 weeks in France and Spain, and it has started freezing on many occasions. Today, I was driving for about 9 hours, and lost count of the number of times it froze. The shortest was a reset with about 300 metres to a roundabout, with the next freeze happening half way round the roundabout. The longest without a freeze about 15 mins.
In every case, the picture just freezes, and all navigation messages cease. Turning the unit off and back on starts it going again after a few seconds locking onto the satellites, and it works fine up to the point of freeze.
I can't see any common reason - it's not when a nav message is given or a POI, and as far as I can see it wasn't linked to the live services. They always kicked back in after about a minute following a turn off/on.
Any advice? |

Try running the clearflash tool 3 times - it isn't destructive.
Also try a power button reset - hold it in until you get a drum roll |

I still think this is all linked to bad traffic updates being delivered to the units.
Looking through the recent messages on the forum, I see a trend starting.

PS. In the top level folder of the 950 you may find a file called restart.dat. This seems to contain crash analysis data which may point to the cause. Here is a partial example from one of my many crashes this weekend. See any similarities in the backtrace on yours?
