So you've got that brand new shiny TomTom, turned it on, and .... OOPS! ... somehow you've selected the wrong language. Suddenly the entire interface is (literally) in some foreign language and you can't figure out how to get back to English. This has happened to quite a few people recently, so here is a short tutorial on how to get back to US English.TomTom Main MenuIf the device is currently turned on and you are anywhere but the primary map/driving view, it might be helpful to turn the device off. Then you can turn it back on to get yourself to the map/driving view. Now click anywhere on the map to take you to the Main Menu. Depending on the language you picked and your device, it should look something like the image on the right. Click on the wrench icon (highlighted in red here) which will take you to the 'Change Preferences' menu.TomTom Change LanguageNow that you are in the Change Preferences menu, keep tapping on the right arrow button to cycle through the menu until you see an icon with three flags on it. That is the 'Change Language' button. Click on that button to bring up a list of the languages installed on your device.TomTom English USUse the arrow keys up and down to find your language, likely 'English US' for most readers of this site. A dialog will appear asking "English US?" at which point you will say 'Yes'. Presto, change-o, you are back in busines
Connect your device with TomTom Home and access the memory (like if it was an external disk)
Create the following 2 files without ant extension in the root:
cleanflash
runclean
It will reset your devide to the original settings.
When starting it will ask you which language you want to use.
To change the time on your TomTom, simply tap the map screen then tap "change preferences", tap the forward arrow intil you see "set clock". Tap "set clock" and set the time and tap "done"
I had the same problem until my wife quickly figured it out.Touch the main part of the screen and then touch change preferences.Hit the forward arrow several times {4 on mine}then you will see "set clock".I'm not sure if i have a 520 ,but it is a tom-tom.
While this is for the 130, the interface on the 125 is nearly identical- look for a sunshine icon for the preference button and lips for voice/language
You have the option of unchecking items you don't want installed and updated every time you connect to TomTom Home. Reset the entire unit and update again to fix the error
