Hi All!

Just purchased a new Tytn II and I am trying to get TOMTOM 6 to work, but so far no luck!

How do I set up the device properly to get a signal?
Also I am unable to find "Quick GPS" anywhere, I have that in my htc advantage but not in Tytn II!

Please help me!

Ok, I have read and tried everything on that thread!
I do get the orange gps ligt to blink every 8 sec or so, but it never recieves any signal.

I am standing next to an open window, and my htc advantage is picking up signal without a problem, but not TYTN II!

Try going outside, you'll get a much stronger signal.

Yep, that did the trick!
After about 20 min of walking I got a signal, and now I get a signal even inside :-)

I figured that might be the problem. I've been using TT for years & whenever I do a fresh install I always have to go outside for a few minutes to get a good sat signal.
