Goto Some Favorites Reboots My 520/720

HummerUK

I have been adding some favorite locations to my new 520 to see if it has the same problem with no "No Route" when you try to select it as a location.

Anyway it still is a problem which you can overcome by creating location as a POI instead.

Also a location I created today (bo-peep car park, south downs) makes my 520 reboot everytime you ask it to route to that location (progress bar gets to about 99% and after a while reboots).

Also as any location can be created as a POI with navigation possible the fact you can't as a favorite must be classified as yet another TT bug.

assuming "Bo Peep Car Park" is at the very end of "Bo Peep Bostal" (I found it by Googling and got this link http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/Southdowns/site.asp?PageId=26&SiteId=43&c=2
which led me to this MultiMap page ...

...then I have no trouble saving that spot as either a Favourite or a POI and then setting the TT720 to find a route (although if I run a demo of the route, it announces I've reached my destination at the end of BoPeep Road as the Bostal is marked as dotted (non-navigable?) on the v7.05 maps even though the demo does continue to the end of the Bostal...)

I also tried saving a point due south off the end of that road (at N 50.82459, E 0.11975) in the middle of a field. Again, whether it was saved as a POI or a Favourite, the unit had no problem plotting a route to it as above.

What is the exact lat/long you see on the TT map screen at your point you marked that crashes the machine (you need to have "co-ordinates" option ticked in the map detail preferences options page)?

I have sent the location using the sms option.

The sms for my favorite of bo-peep says TTPosition:50.82570 0.11999 I Am Here (Bo-Peep)

Just trying to navigate to it again and this time is frooze and rebooted at 0 roads analysed...

Well, I ve just entered those exact co-ords (which gives me a point about 50 yards southeast of the end of the track on the map). I saved it as both a favourite and as a POI, and the Go can happily plot a route from West London to both of them. Takes about 3-4 seconds to work it out each time.

I'm afraid I've got no bright ideas why it won't work for you...

Very odd...
As a further test I tried navigate to that location long/lat and that works.

Also saving that as a favorite which it auto names as Bopeep Bostal works okay.

However I note it saves the position with different values.

Sent as an SMS it says TTPostion:50.82599 0.11964 I am here (Bopeep Bostal)

Rather than TTPosition:50.82570 0.11999 I Am Here (Bo-Peep)
