    Default TomTom 1 keyboard out of sync

    Hello,

    My old Tom Tom 1 has a problem were the onscreen keyboard is not in sync with the key presses.....

    Looking a a qwerty keyboard layout, if I touch say an "A", a "Z" is entered, this is the sam for all presses.

    Its like it needs calibration????

    I have reset it to factory defaults but this made no difference.

    I couldnt see a config setting for this sort of thing.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Porkop

    Sorry, I can't give you the exact answer as I never had the problem like you do.

    It is often faster, easier and less frustrating to order a replacement digitiser off Ebay.
    With a bit of shopping around you get them for under 20$.

    Thanks for that. Had a quick read, will digest it a little later, but on the surface it seems like a rather complicated method that could be achieved with an application!

    I works with some WinCE devices a few years ago and on intialisation they started with a screen calibration routine which consisted of touching a cross hair marker in each corner of the screen and then the centre and the touch screen was calibrated.

    Pity there is not a Tom Tom app like that.
