[size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#0000ff]If you use a Tomtom be aware.

I have just updated my [/color][url="http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=tomtom"][color=#0000ff]Tomtom[/color][/url][color=#0000ff] on the PC, the speed limit box at the bottom of the display now has such a small font it’s as good as useless, if you rely on this info box don’t do the update.

The latest update on my PVR was also a disaster. Why can’t they leave things alone when they are working OK.

I feel better now I’ve had a rant.[/color][/font][/size]

[color=#0000ff][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]Not until you exceed the speed limit by more than 4 MPH that may be too late if plod is following or you hit a speed camera that TomTom doesn’t know about.[/font][/size][/color]

Bummer!!! I'm doing the update as we speak!!! Lol

[color=#0000ff][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]You may be lucky; I am told it effects the TomTom 1 iQ more than the larger screen versions. Please let me know if yours has been degraded on the font size for speed limits as I am in touch with TomTom over this in the hope for a better software update.[/font][/size][/color]

The only place still likely to have any is Halfords.
Limited edition though as the BBC put their foot down as they don't like the commercial tie-in.
Still have them in my local one but going fast.

....... I am not gonna lie... I dont see any difference on my TomTom since the update...

I guess this is because of the screen size to start with.

[color=#0000cd][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]Yes, I think the problem may only apply to the smaller screen “TomTom 1 IQ”, I guess TomTom failed to check if the update would degrade the smaller screen models; typical of techies who fail to check all the options.[/font][/size][/color]

[color=#0000ff][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]I was aware of the J.C. voice over problem with the BBC; but this has no bearing on the software downgrade forced upon “TomTom 1 IQ” users, causing the displayed road speed limit font being too made small to read without taking your eyes off the road for longer than is safe.[/font][/size][/color]

Ok... Had a chance to use it properly now...

Speed camera warnings now come up Bottom left.. With a big speed limit sign... And u can now tarp the warning to say if the camera doesn't exist anymore

Also I have noticed occasionally in the top left, some warning triangles appear... The one I've kept seeing is a red triangle with a car in it surrounded by black diagonal lines...

Have no idea what it means and can't seem to find anything online about it!!!

[color=#0000ff][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]Unfortunately it’s not the same on the "TomTom One", mines been completely b****** by the new software.[/font][/size][/color]

Found out what those symbols are....

Cant say on my journey the other day I noticed any rain... but its nice of the satnav to try and warn me it may be coming lol!!

[color=#0000ff][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]Unfortunately the new software messed up my “TomTom One”[/font][/size][/color]

Are you not able to roll the software back to the previous install?

[color=#0000ff][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]Unfortunately not, I did a silly thing after the update and backed up TomTom, this meant that the back up and the installed software were the same; I wont make that mistake again. I am still waiting for TomTom to resolve this problem, they say they have escalated my complaint, but I’m not holding my breath.[/font][/size][/color]

If you had someone with the same type of satnav and an old back up you could crib the rollback from there.

[color=#0000ff][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]That’s an idea I had thought of, but as yet I haven’t found a “TomTom One iQ” user with the previous back up.[/font][/size][/color]

Which navcore version do you currently have. theres an about screen. Think you get to it by pressing the battery icon.
