maps-buildings-dem-poi-f82/igo-tomtom-2014-2014-europa-full-t16488.html

same maps i am using
keep getting message at top gps disconnected then 5 seconds later turns on 15 seconds after it turns off again

Ah sorry GPS. I thought you meant the sat nav itself. Try again changing the baud rate in the sys.txt. I have this in mine...

Code:

[gps]
port=7
baud=57600
source="nmea"


Are you sure about the build number? That one is - when I am not wrong - not distributed on this forum.
You should better ask where you found that build because only the maker/cracker can tell you about the particularities or flaws.
I also saw in nabi's build list that 9.8.0 needs special licenses.

this is top of sys file and pictures

See under GPS on the sys you have a different baud to me.
BTW. Does that thing go online? could it be looking for live traffic and turning the GPS off in the process? I have that un ticked.

Try making the red =0 and delete your save folder.
