Connect your device with TomTom Home and access the memory (like if it was an external disk)
Create the following 2 files without ant extension in the root:

cleanflash
runclean

It will reset your devide to the original settings.
When starting it will ask you which language you want to use.

Tom Tom sim card error

Hi.

You need to replace the SIM card located on a slot at the side of your GPS.

Before replacing the SIM try turning off the TomTom, removing and reinserting the SIM.

The card can be purchased at any TomTom authorized seller, or contacting TomTom online.

My Main menue language is German on my TomTom 130 GPS

In the menu, you should find the settings for language.

Now, If you don't speak German, this can be a problem.

If you use your computer to translate, you can do it.

Go to http://babelfish.yahoo.com/ and select the languages as required (German to English). Enter the commands you see on the TomTom, and navigate that was until you see the language settings.

Reset

Start up your TomTom and find the preferences icon. The lips icon has the option of changing the voice, and you can switch back to English from there.

Tomtom One 130 shows pic of Tomtom, flashing x, pie chart icon on left after using Tomtom Home.

TomTom Home must have corrupted the TomTom's operating system. That is what that symbol means. Contact TomTom support and tell them what model you have and they will walk you through getting the correct version installed.
