 |

So can anyone tell me if they know when a new firware may be out. I know the 2,50 firware has come out but it has not fixed the POI's problem some of them still show as grey dots and not all the PocketGPS camera POI's show up either.
Thank

| How many categories do you have loaded? On older models if you load more than 255 categories you get grey dots instead of icons. |

Simplest Solution...
1/ Take 3790T to kitchen.
2/ Open bin.
3/ Drop 3790T into bin.
4/ Close bin.
5/ Buy a new Tom Tom 750L which doesn't suffer any of the problems the 3790T does. 
Yes, I'm being serious. |

Strange? 
Mine's working perfectly with the new update.
My two 3790T's lasted about 4 hours each time before they were returned to the retailers as unfit for purpose, because of lack of POI support, Voice Commands not working properly (Try asking it for Exeter!), it couldn't find the channel tunnel, it doesn't have ferry ports in it (Transit section) & the list goes on & on.... |

PaulB2005 it has to be a firmware fault because all my POI's worked fine on my old 765T Also like I said even some the pocketGPS Traffic cam are showig as grey dots, and they also worked 100% on my old 765T
