I understand better what you are saying about the cache. I should have been clearer, after doing my factory reset, I did completely clear everything and try a new installation, and still this problem persists. That is why I’m perplexed since it was a clean install and I never had to modify the Pongo sys.txt previously for TMC and weather to work. Allow me to give the procedure I followed for installation, perhaps you can spot a mistake I’m making.

1) Clear storage and cache for iGO and uninstall the iGO app from android settings
2) Delete everything in the iGO_Israel folder (including my save folder) so it is EMPTY
3) Copy original installation files for Nextgen (content, ux, data.zip, etc.) [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
4) Rename application original installation “ux” folder to “ux.old” and “data.zip” to “data.old.zip”
5) Copy “ux” folder, “data.zip” and “sys.txt” from Pongo latest to iGO_Israel folder
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
6) Copy Content folder from Pongo latest to merge with original application Content folder (I did this rather than REPLACE the original Content folder as it did not work when I tried that, so I just added what was new from the Pongo Content folder to it and it seemed to work)
7) Install iGO app using the APK from this thread OP (non-SD version, no.make.sys)

Something else I’ll mention is that I noticed some differences between various TMC sys.txt settings I found here: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
In some cases, the server address, profile_name, and some other things are in quotations “ “ and other cases they are not. I’m not sure if this is a relevant difference or if it works either way and this is just a personal preference in syntax? From what I gather it seems as though the way to work thru this is to try all of the profile names one by one, but do I also need to try with and without “profile_2” or “profile_(some other number)”? Then some settings have upd.enabled=0, some =1, and others don’t include that line at all. Just seems like there are too many possible combinations to practically try. I am really trying to learn this stuff, I apologize for my ignorance…

Lastly, this is the only place I have been able to find sys.txt that is mentioned specifically for USA (2nd post): [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
This does not work for me. The settings I had previously that were working are those in the Pongo sys.txt which I didn’t touch, but don’t work presently (assuming my problem is not elsewhere). As I have been trying these I simply exit iGO (using the menu exit), edit the sys.txt, save it, and then reopen iGO to check if I have traffic events. Perhaps there is something more there that needs to be done when trying the different TMC codes in sys.txt?

I truly appreciate your time and efforts. Apologies for the long post, just trying to give as much detail as possible. I will give PAL a try, as you recommended, in the meantime.
