NAV4 Patching errors

Simba
Have you noticed that after performing a factory reset after having patched it, your device freezes and the only solution is to restore the backup

as Simba told you there are many versions of tomtom and even if they look the same aesthetically then there are differences.
if you take the tomtom go 6000 it is aesthetically the same as the tomtom go 600 ... they are the same aesthetically.
but the go 6000 has a Sim inside while the go 600 has no phone sim
so probably the go 6000 does not connect to traffic information via TMC but only with its sim, while the go 600 connects to the TMC battery charger for traffic or via bluetooth.
this is just one example!
TOMTOM has always done this ... you remember the tomtom go x50 series
there were tomtom go 750 live and go 950 live with their sim for traffic information and they did not connect with the TMC battery charger, instead the go 750 T or go 950 T used the battery charger with TMC for traffic information.
so the software or rather the navcore has nothing to do with it ... tomtom go 6000 has the same navcore as the go 600 or other models, Nav4 all have the exact same Navcore ... but change the hardware inside these tomtoms, do you understand me ?!
so you just have to try, if you connect the battery charger with TMC and the traffic information works well, otherwise there is no solution, it does not concern the software / navcore but the components of the tomtom that you cannot change.
however the traffic info via TMC is not true, while the traffic info via Sim or via Bluetooth (connected to the smartphone) is really excellent and with real-time updates

Another example

I designate the route from point A to point B
one of them 600 tells me what time the arrival will be
and the other 600 doesn't

Same model, same navcore and different traffic information!

same model, same navcore, if one tells you arrival time and another does not, the one that does NOT say arrival time, DOES NOT get satellite signal, it seems that it would be a hardware problem.

Thank you Simba and Spoon1

You guys are very helpful

I've tested this patch on a Go 60, a Go 500 and a Go 600. Only the Go 60 gave me the patch failed message, but only the first time I've turned it on.
The three are working flawlessly. Thank you again @simba

thanks for commenting on the results, it can help other users, yes the patch notice failed, in some it comes out in others it doesn't. I ask of these 3 devices that you mention, did any of them have problems before with the other patches or were they working well?
regards

All of them were working fine. The GO 60 had the freezing problem when it got GPS signal the first time I applied the 21.100 patch, but then I restored it and applied it again and it was working normally.
I believe next week I'll have a 6000 and a 6100 to patch. Will report the results.

@Simba i tried in a Go50 that was slow and often with black screen , so i removed 21.2 old patch and i put your new patch ....testing...it works well since now , no more blackscreen and no slow
