Additional instructions: Go to the forum, etc.

Huawei Mediapad M3 Lite (CPN-L09). Android 7.0. No issues earlier. In use since Sep 2018. Go 1.18.1. Scandinavia map.

The diagnostics does not get five stars. Any hits to get it working again?

Hi @MattiG

Welcome to the Community! I would advise you to make a clean re-installation of the App on your Android device, see the steps below:

• Go to the Settings of the Phone.
• Go to ‘Applications’ (maybe called different depending on the OS version used).
• Go to ‘Application Manager’ (maybe called different depending on the OS version used).
• Find the app in the list you’d like to uninstall and tap on it.
• Click ‘Force Quit/Force Stop’.
• In the ‘Storage’ section, tap first ‘Clear Cache’ and then tap ‘Clear Data
• Here, tap on ‘Uninstall’.
• Log out of the Playstore.
• Delete Android / data / com.tomtom.gplay.navapp and Android / OBB / com.tomtom.gplay.navapp.
• Open the Playstore login and reinstall the app on the internal memory (Not on SD Card).
• Once done please close all the apps which are running in the background reboot the phone.
• Reopen the TomTom app and test.

If still no joy, please attach a screenshot of the error for better understanding.

Hard to believe that this would provide with useful additional info. :-) Pressing the green cancel button quits the app.

I managed to get some time to re-install. The first attempt failed, but the second one succeeded. The initialization routines were able to give a useful message of the root cause: Lack of space in the internal storage. Did some cleanup and now the app works again.

Glad to hear that @MattiG !
