To avoid problems with my 740 Live, I haven't connected to Home since I read the warnings on V9. I have paid for map updates but should I update my map? How do I ensure my 740 isn't corrupted by V9 if I update the map? _________________ John

...... and dont forget it has installed a new cphoneme.dat file for those who have renamed it to change pronunciations!
I thought TT Home was supposed to save the settings of mapsettings.cfg now when the map was updated? Didnt for me

The latest (broken on x40) firmware is supposed to fix that. I'm going to hold off updating maps until the firmware is fixed. |

Three hours later and it reckons another 9 1/2 hours to go.
And I've got to do this for the NA map and two other devices yet..... |

Hmm, you should just about have finished resetting everything by the time 860 maps come out.
Any significant increase in map size? _________________ Mike R [aka Wyvern46]

Ooooh, I'm up to the 'u' in 'Download Western & Central Europe', only 16hrs and 42mins remaining (and what's the betting the server will reboot during the night?) |
