bought one tomtom one 3rd edition from the flea market for 1 €. nice gadget, always have to struggle with the quickgpsfix with tomtom home. sometimes it workes, then i can get the gps INSIDE a house from 5-7 satellites. sometimes it doesn't work. in the beginning of the video 0:54 you show a windows holder of the tomtom. i REALLY NEED the window holder. where can i get one? please send me any link from amazon or ebay! i want to see the price. the one i have is huge, clumsy and shitty
Back in the day, I always wanted one of the RDS-TMC traffic cables, but they were financially out of reach for me. Have you ever tried one? Do you know if that system is still broadcasting? They are $7 on eBay, now.
Yes I did try it but in San Diego where I live the accuracy is not so good. For example it says there is traffic ahead when there is no traffic at all, or it says no traffic and you will hit a major traffic congestion. The only one which is pretty accurate is the HD cable, such as Garmin GTM60HD
Hi, the SD Card must have the maps with the complete copy of the Navcore, which is the TomTom Operating System in order to work. So use a 2GB or smaller SD Card and copy everything on the Root Directory of the SD Card
Let the GPS unit sit overnight near a widow or outside overnight, and it should automatically update the satellite positions. The second option is to use FastActive.exe to update Satellite positions.
I have got a gps navigation system from my friend (3rd edition(1 gb) 4N01.002). Unfortunately Its not working properly after updated . The device asking activation code. But I don't have any activation code. i dnt knw how to get it. could plz help me ?
That happens if you copy the maps from a different TomTom GPS, or from a third party websites. To be 100% sure always get your maps from a legitimate sources like TomTom Website. If your GPS is no longer supported on the TomTom Website you may use third party maps from GPS forums.
Hi on my Tom Tom 3rd edition I tried your set up but can’t get past voice set up just keeps going on a loop to set up again, do you know what’s happening? Thanks in advance. Terry
It is printed at the bottom of the GPS unit, you can also plug it into power source then press and hold the power button for 30 seconds and it will show the diagnostic screen including the model number.
I know this is my third comment for today. I promise it is my last for a while. I have this GPS. TomTom will no longer sell updated maps even if I wanted to buy them. What happens if the TomTom can't find an address on a road that's been built since the last map update and so instead I enter the latitude and longitude? Will it take me to the end of the roads it knows about and then stop or will it try to get me to drive through peoples' yards and houses? :)
If the address is in an area where there was no road before and the GPS has no maps of that street, then it will take you to the nearest road and ask you to walk to your destination. However this only happens if you enter the Longitude and Latitude coordinates. If you enter the actual address it will say address not found. Same is true if you enter coordinates of a tree in a desert the GPS will take you to the closest road neat that tree and ask you to walk to your destination. The only problem is that not all GPS devices support coordinate entry.
Per your suggestion I mad a video comparing a Smartphone Vs an actual GPS Navigation For rout guidance here is the link ua-cam.com/video/ranYKwsW4-I/v-deo.html
I want to make sure I understand your question correctly, did you erase all the data on your Computer Hard Drive or on your TomTom GPS Navigation device?
I felt this is an excellent video. Not knowing anything about the TomTom One, I learned alot. Pause the video as you play with it and follow along.
Thank you!
Just came here for nostalgia, good times!
I am with you on that, what happened to those good old times :'-|

I was giving a tomtom as a gift. My only issue is "no satalite signal"

Try updating the Navcore that should fix the issue. For that model I believe the most stable Navcore is Version 8.16
Where did u buy the mount?
I got mine from eBay here is the link www.ebay.com/itm/164253237096
My neighbor gave me his tomtom one N14644, how do I know what version it is?

@@TECHNOLOGYTIPS101 Interesting. Sounds like a decent workaround. People on the internet HATE that they can't update their old TomToms. Thanks!
