Update your TomTom software.

I did it yesterday and what a difference in performance.

No joke - I did the upgrade on the One I have and - get this - it
provides instant lock on satellites.

I'm absolutely serious - instant lock. As in full lock - ten
satellites.

I have no idea how they did it, but it boots faster and you get a full
lock on position instantly.

It's also tracking much better and before, it wasn't bad at all.

They changed something and it's really for the better.

As in WAY better.

I updated and it indeed locks in faster. But now I have to remove the
memory card (clicking on it so it dislodges) to turn the darn thing on.
Once on, I then click it back into position. Not a big deal but annoying.

I will be calling their support department tomorrow to see what the fix
is.

Good luck with their support. I had lengthy discussions with Two of them
over the weekend. Neither seemed to have a lot of product knowlege. I got so
frustrated with them that I returned my bargain version 3 unit to the store
and swapped it for a Nuvi 200.
I hope you have better luck.
