TT910 and Traffic

Just received a TT910 and when I first tried it with traffic via my phone it worked. Subsequently, I now get "TomTom Traffic - could not establish a wireless data connection, please check your mobile phone". And yet the TT is talking to the phone as a hands free device quite happily. Any thoughts ?

Furthermore, I also have the dedicated TMC receiver and I get absolutely zilch, no recognition of it or anything. Now I realise this is par for the course - and having read posts in this forum I went into it with my eyes open, but anyone any suggestions on this (I have upgraded to 6.522 BTW) ?

Just started working again with GPRS, but still nothing with the TMC receiver.

Stopped working again, but now I've sussed out what's going on. It only works when connected to my PC, otherwise it gives the "can't establish a wireless connection with phone" message. Can anyone suggest what is going on please ?

just a thought but do you have to activate the data settings with your phone service provider or have to activate it in your phone settings.
some you can download data straight away others have to be activated in your settings on your phone.

Are you trying to use GPRS traffic data while the RDS TMC unit is plugged in to the device mount in the car? - if so if won't work the TMC unit takes precident, disconnect the RDS TMC and then try for the GPRS Traffic - Mike

Tony, first of all are you running version 6,522 on the device please check by tapping the sat strength meter then see what the small version box states, we have seen a number of posts recently where TomTom Home has downloaded the update but it is not installed to the device.

Secondly you should see an orange spinning disk (top right) on the display indicating the unit is tunning, or better still a green solid disk indicating it is locked to the crrect channel, for some screen shots please have a read through THIS do any of the screen shots resemble what you can see on your device with the TMC unit connected ?

If the software version is correct and you don't have the orange disk spinning or the green disk (top right) try a reset, followed by pushing the TMC connector further in to its socket on the mount, it is quite stiff to get in - and fiddly once the 910 is docked on the car mount - Mike

How can I reset or restart my TomTom GO, ONE or RIDER?

Now actually locked onto a Classic FM station in Leeds and got the green circle. Not reporting any traffic but that might be true. I have to drive 200 miles South today, I'll try it for real.
Still can't use the phone though.

Done 400 mile round trip. The Traffic receiver works but as reported constantly on here it is very erratic - probably had a signal about a third of the journey.
