Why does my device reboot for no specific reason during a journey?
Why is search function so slow?
What happened to 3D buildings?
My 6000 is faster than this model!!!!

    (1)... I find the Wi-Fi devices are more stable and more responsive in general use when you 'Forget' the Wi-Fi connection....

    (2)... See bullet point (1)
    Also check... 400 MB is considered the bare minimum Free Working Space
    The more Free Space, the faster the device will operate... is the device stuffed full of rarely used Maps ???
    Check Free Space... Check... Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> System --> About... Scroll down to Free Space....

    (3)... Is your driving view 2D Rotate in direction of travel (NO 3D Buildings in the 2D Rotate in direction of Travel Driving View)
    Are 3D Buildings turned off in the Settings... Check... Tap 4Dot (.... Menu) --> Setting --> Appearance --> Guidance View... Turn on Show 3D Buildings & 3D Landmarks

    (4)... For me there's no comparison, my GO Premium is definitely faster than my GO 5000

    I had a problem that my Go Premium continually freezes then restarts over and over. I found that if i turn the My Drive syncing OFF on the device then it sorts out the problem. But it means I cannot connect to the My Drive app on my phone!!
