    Hey uh, I have the tablet, and after the last map update, Chicago is missing most of its interstates. Also, i70 just east of Indianapolis is missing.

    They show up zoomed out, but once I get down to .2 miles zoom, they disappear. And I am told that there is no route through either cities.

    Any way this can be fixed on my end?

    How did you do the map downloads on your tablet? Via what kind of Hotspot and speed.

    It sounds like maybe you got a bad Map download.

    I will be home about 3pm EST if you need help. "Start" a conversation with me. Left click on my name.

    We will have to delete one file to "force" the maps to download again.

    Suggest high speed Wi-Fi.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    I have the TND 720 and I have been happy with it so far, but my only issue is when I change the day/night mode default setting for brightness it will not remember it.
    I.E. I change the night mode one shade down and come daylight, the GPS will not change to day mode at all unless I prompt it. (And vise versa)

    I do weekly updates and on a couple of occasions have done a diagnostic check which says 22 files need to be replaced/updated.

    Am I doing anything wrong in order to keep my brightness settings intact?

    Known issue. It is fixed in the Beta version, but released yet to production.

    Thanks,

    Not at this time. No Major bugs found although this one is bothersome... I suspect closer to the new map release which at this time is in testing.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    New thread:
    Referring to the Day/Night dimming issue that was reported in April 2016 on the 720, I have poked around looking to see if this issue was resolved. Can't say that I've found anything. Was it fixed or is it still an issue. As for me, not fixed.
    Part 2. Is software version 4.5.3790.1609 that latest update? If so, why is my unit saying that it's been over a year since the last one.
    Thanks in advance. Happy New Year
