I've just installed this - albeit over an installation that had the workaround used.
The patch re-installs: "TomTom Today" and "TomTom Bluetooth Support".
My TomTom GPS device was immediately identified, and after a few minutes managed to sync up on the satellites.
Looks like it does fix the GPS problem.

Perhaps I've missed something here, but as a 4150 user I can't see any difference whatsoever....I still have the same shortcomings. I was hoping to see some real improvements, like the sound option for POI's only..or an easy way to toggle between TT and my regular programs etc. etc.

Is it worth me downloading the update? I don't seem to have any problems (Ipaq1710 wired), the way I see it, why fix something that is not broke????

Why do I have to agree to have "advancedDVDplayerpro" ?

My XDA II was freezing up as well. So under TT Support, I downloaded and installed v5.1. This has made no difference at all, it still freezes from after 2 minutes to 20 !

I've installed this and it works no problem on an Hx4700. I was seeing the quitting of the app after about an hour with v5.

Now all I need is a decent mount and a charger!!!
