Still can't get rid of TomTom images in gallery!

Has anyone found a surefire way of getting rid of the TomTom images in the N80's gallery?

I've tried using the USB cable on data transfer mode, renaming the folders and then deleting the images from the gallery, but the images didn't appear broken in the gallery and all it did was delete the TomTom images lock stock.

So how can I hide them from view in the gallery?

Help!!!

As far as I know, if you browse to the folder containing the images using a card reader, then right-click the image and change the attribute to "hidden"

Works using the data transfer mode. Think the pics are in the "raster folder" you can select multiple pics and choose hidden, when you refresh they will vanish from view in the raster folder.

Definately worked for me though, it doesn't stop tomtom using them either...

Hope this helps

Firstly, set the Tomtom and GP-Map, and Raster folder attributes to HIDDEN using a tool such as Y-Browser.

Then remove your memory card and open the Gallery. If you still see broken/blank thumbnails for all the TT images, delete them from the gallery.

Exit from the Gallery, re-insert your memory card then next time you open the Gallery there should be no TT images.
