NAVCORE 7 bugs

I upgraded my wifes ONE (I have a 910) and now she has Ver. 7. When using the "Help Me" option and going to "Where Am I", it will tell me im at the correct intersection every time (IE: Between Washington Blvd and Hollins Ferry Rd.) but the town is usually incorrect.I live in Baltimore Md and it will tell me Im in Severn Md or Woodlawn Md even when Im sitting on my own street . But, if I move 10 yards, it may say the correct city until I move again.

I sure hope that gets worked out, because if my wife were to use that in an emergency and the ambulance went to the wrong town...it sure wouldnt be a good thing.

Just a warning...

I have noticed that as well

I'm having the same problem. Says I'm in one city but am actually in another city that is almost 25km away. So far I'm not impressed. Can I downgrade back to v.6?

If you did a backup before you upgraded, then yes.

I did a back-up but it won't restore it.

uh oh.

Well go into Document & Settings and then the TomTom folder. Under backups, you should be able to find the files and then transfer them over manually. Also, I keep a copy of the application via TomTom HOME (I use Copy To Computer) so that I can reinstall it if I need to.

So my TT1 wouldn't start up anymore and even a reset did nothing. Returned it to the place of purchase and exchanged it for another one. Not going to upgrade this one to Navcore 7 until the bugs have been worked out.

I upgraded inadvertently but I have not seen any show stopper bugs. My city is also displayed wrong as mentioned in this thread earlier. And the screen blanking feature freezes the device after the screen is restored so I had to disable the screen blanking feature. Also the speed limit chime and warning comes on at slow speeds too. Annoying but not a show stopper.

The only thing that bothered me was it gave me (way) wrong directions to a friend's place and I have used it for the same place before and the directions then were fine. So there is probably something funky but I am not sure if its the new navcore or the maps.

I think I had to reset my Home after the update.

How about this bug:

Day/Night brightness always has to be set. For example, I start off using night colors (and brightness). I get to my destination and turn the unit off. When I get back in my car and turn the TT on again, it still shows night colors but with daytime brightness. REALLY annoying.

I'm pretty sure I never had to fiddle with the colors/brightness prior to the upgrade.

I hope they fix this soon.
