Have you tried formatting the SD card before you restore it?

Other than that I think you'd better make that trip to the store - if you've only had it 2 days you're entilted to a replacment or a refund if they have none in stock.


You shouldn't have to wait for a repair.


Hope this helps.

Hi

I have had my TTG 300 for a few days.

When I switch it on to use, it seems to take a few minutes to locate my satellite signal - is this normal? Once it is on, it doesn't lose the signal. I was always under the impression that once switched on the signal is almost instantaneous?

If "No GPS Device" is on permanently it's either that the GPS receiver is or the flexi cable got loose, back to the shop it goes

It is normal, there've been a number of discussions on the subject, you'll find more information if you search this forum.
