730 keeps switching to Demo mode

Wierd or what?

Everything works fine EXCEPT:-

Exactly every 2 minutes it switches to Demo mode and I have to tap the screen to get back to where I was.

Have tried the business card trick round the edges to no avail (but didn't think that would help as it's almost on a timer switch)

Have also tried clearflash.

730 with 8.351

Are you sure it is demo mode or is it a demo of features in the unit? Just for the heck of it, use Explorer to make sure there are no files in the scripts folder; if there are, delete them.

Also, tried a reset on the unit?

Has it behaved in this way ever since you bought the device as it sounds like its been set up for shop demo mode to me - There is a file on the device that can cause this demo script to run but I can't remember the file name for the life of me - I hope this might trigger someone in to remembering the file and which folder its in - Mike

Congrats to dhn... Cheers!

Not only did you get straight to the heart of the problem, but you beat Mike too!

Well, one time out of 1000 ain't something to crow about, but I'll accept the congrats anyway.

Thanks, Andy!! Laughing
