If you want to recover the full Itinerary and Custom POI capability that the software offers but TomTom have stupidly (in my opinion) removed from the device you need to run a custom menu on the unit.

Doing this will recover the missing POI menu and Itenerary functionality, but you lose the Help Me and Map Share icons (if I work out a way to get these back as well I will be happy, but all attemps at this have proven fruitless so far), this is a small price to pay as far as I am concerned as you can soon toggle between the two menu structures with a simple connection to the PC.

Before doing any of the following please make sure you have a full back up of the device, use the method detailed on the http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=50045 FAQ Page for a reliable method.

Put the following text into a file named TomTom.mnu

MENUBLOCK|BLOCK_MAIN|BTM_GPS_POSITION|
MENUPAGE|TASK_PAGE1|Main menu 1 of 2|
MENUITEM|TASK_NAVIGATE_TO|
MENUITEM|TASK_MENU_FIND_ALTERNATIVES|
MENUITEM|TASK_MAINTAIN_POI|
MENUITEM|TASK_ADD_FAVORITE|
MENUITEM|TASK_MENU_PREFERENCES|
MENUITEM|TASK_PAGE2|
MENUPAGE|TASK_PAGE2|Main menu 2 of 2|
MENUITEM|TASK_MENU_PLAN_ATOB|
MENUITEM|TASK_SHOW_MAP|
MENUITEM|TASK_DELETE_ROUTE|
MENUITEM|TASK_MENU_TRAFFIC|
MENUITEM|TASK_ITINERARY|
MENUITEM|TASK_PAGE1|

Then put the file into a folder called SdkRegistry and pay attention to the Caps case of the letters.

This method will “unhide” the features people need and use on a day to day basis, unfortunatly it will remove the newer version 7 additions to the software.

To restore back to the original menus, simply rename the TomTom.mnu file to something else, and restart the unit.

You can still mark map changes to the map for future review using the navigation screen short cut as this does work even when using a custom menu (make sure you enable this BEFORE installing the custom menu though).

(note the short cut for marking a map change for future referral below the speed camera icon on the upper left side of the screen)

To revert to a normal menu simply rename the TomTom.mnu file to something else and the device will boot using the default menu structure, doing this will make the default menu screen return.
