Thread: Tomtom one stopped working

Hi,

I have an older TomTom ONE (I think it is model 130 S, but I am not exactly sure), which stopped working a few weeks ago. It sees the satellites, but never receives the position and shows "Poor GPS reception - are you inside a building?" I don't think signal is an issue as I tried it outside and it sees many satellites, the bars move around, but they are always gray. I think the problem started after GPS week number rollover.

I tried updating. The TT Home installed Quick GPS Fix. After the update all satellite bars have disappeared and it still does not work. I've tried manually updating using QuickGPSFix V4.45 from this forum - same thing. I also tried putting "glgps" into bin folder - did not change anything. If I uninstall QuickGPSFix I get satellite bars moving again, but they stay gray and I never get position. Also tried to "Configure" the coordinate format - did not change anything.

The software version is 8.017.

Is there any way to make it work again or is it that week number rollover made my GPS receiver completely useless?

Thanks.
