Have you tried TomTom 6.1?

I had the same problem with 6.0 and had to use Buzz's modified exe. But when i loaded 6.1 it was ok.

Hopefully it will work for you to.

Hi,

I had the same problem with my Tomtom on my M1000.
I searched on internet and found a little program developped by a great developper!
In fact, it seems that when Tomtom starts, it modifies two registry keys.

I think I've found it on this forum but not sure.
The soft is called TTN Backlight Fix.

I cannot attach it because my Personnal computer has burned so I need to change hardware to get my datas back.

So you can try to search this little fix and instead of launching TTN directly you launch this fix which starts TTN for you.

The hex-editor trick worked for me too.. allthough I am very curious if this is a bug in Tomtom 6 or in Windows Mobile. Or could it be a problem with the Rom-image we are using?

Since I have an official Tomtom 6 package, I will call them tomorrow and ask them for a solution.

I will keep you guys posted here ;)

too bad, apparently I made it too easy for the supportcrew of TomTom to answer my question. They blamed my powersaveoptions. I rephrased the question and resubmitted the request. Let's see what happens next.

cheers..

so, a little update.. after alot of back and forth.. we're still nowhere :mad:

I even mailed the modified .exe. Now we happily wait for their second level support. 2nd level's first reaction was that I should hard-reset and reinstall.. which was obviously no solution (more like basic microsoft troubleshooting: if it doesn't work, reboot. If it still doesn't work, reinstall)

They came back from that, so we now await their newest ideas..

Will keep you posted.

greetz,
