Re: TomTom 7 (7.915.9196) Graphics Issue

Hey guys, I managed to get TomTom 7.916.9189 working really well. I installed the QVGA version and am using my Bluetooth GPS receiver as opposed to the internal one and I have to say it's a HUGE improvement. Much smoother and similar to performance on my HTC Vogue.

I'm almost thinking it has something to do with using my Bluetooth GPS receiver. As for the QVGA version, I actually think it looks better than the VGA one anyways. (The branding icons are much more appropriately sized, for one thing.)

I highly recommend installing the QVGA version attached here. I had to rename two .DLL files in \Windows: (I was getting a "BTTrayCE.exe is not a valid program" error whenever my TP2 started up.)

\Windows\BtSdkCE30.dll
\Windows\BtCoreIf.dll

(I just added a 2 at the end of each of them but you can rename them to whatever you want as long as the name has changed; the OS won't let you delete the file for some reason but renaming is kosher.)
