TomTom xl RDS-TMCReceiver help

Mon Aug 19, 2013 2:33 pm

Hi
updated my tomtom that has not been used in over a year to the latest available maps and navs from this site. but when i plug in the rds receiver in the car the tomtom just freezers and then keeps rebooting, if i use the tomtom with out the traffic rds plugged in it works fine, can anybody tell me what im missing, before i started updating i deleted the old files off the tomtom and just added the files i downloaded from here

fastactivate option 7 gives me this

ttgo.bif:
DeviceName=TomTom XL
DeviceVersionHW=ONE XL (v9)
DeviceSerialNumber=RBxxxxxxxxxx
BootLoaderVersion=55019
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=9510
ApplicationVersion=1234792.2
CurrentMap=Great_Britain-Map
CurrentMapVersion=910.4952

Map(s):
g:\
g:\Great_Britain-Map\

Storage:
Size 978MB, Free 533MB

and TTCurrentConfig gives me this

TTGO.BIF:
DeviceName=TomTom XL
DeviceVersionHW=ONE XL (v9)
BootLoaderVersion=55019
ApplicationVersionVersionNumber=9510
ApplicationVersion=1234792.2
CurrentMap=Great_Britain-Map
CurrentMapVersion=910.4952
TTGO.BAK:

TTGO.ORI:

TTNAVIGATOR.BIF:

any help would be great , the only other option i would have is go back to my old maps and do a complete restore

This behavior is very unusal.
What Navcore are you using and did the problem start right after update?
Did you do a clean install on an empty device?

i did a clean install, and the tomtom works ok until you plug in the rds traffic, then the tomtom screen freezers and after about 1 min the tomtom reboot to the tomtom screen then just keeps restarting, the nav version is 9510
