the device wont open..a picture representing a PC and the device connected with a wire X in red appears.If the device could open i can reset and refresh the device. I hear from many people that this series has all cardboard problem??? What is your advice...? I have a life time licence and wanted to benefit from my device, utilised 3 times in 5 years for very long distance only.
thanks

    You have probably run the battery dead flat...
    Lithium battery's should always be properly maintained, one of the worst things you can do to a Lithium Battery is to store it in a discharged state....

    It looks like Recovery Mode has initialized on your device.....
    When in Recovery Mode for the Recovery process to complete....
    The device MUST be connected over a USB Cable...
    MyDrive Connect running on your PC, and be capable displaying as CONNECTED on MyDrive Connect....

    See Tomtom FAQ... Navigation device not starting or displaying a cross....
    I think the device is somewhere between bullet-point (7) & (8)
    See... https://help.tomtom.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360013959579-Navigation-device-not-starting-or-displaying-a-cross

    Once Recovery Mode is initiated, and if a connection to MyDrive Connect has NOT established....
    Recovery Mode will continue to attempt to connect to MDC until the Server eventually times-out
    Any attempts at a Restart... The device, will continue to display a Splash screen with image of a PC and a Red Cross or a Screen displaying a spinning disc, until Recovery mode can establish a connection to MyDrive Connect or the Server eventually times-out....
