Hi there.
I have managed to update my One now to version 5.450.
The only difference I can see is that the screen is brighter
It's only a minor thing, also the name of the road at the bottom of the screen seems to only just fit on the actual screen.
Has anyone else noticed this??
If anyone also has found any differences, let us know,

Sorry to double post:
Here is my TomTom ONE version screen:
Device ***** *****
App 5.450 (5652/060328) OS:1011
30 mb RAM (free: 6.7mb)
GPS v1.21, Boot 4.28

It appears that the Boot version has changed, is this true??

Are you sure your doing the update correctly??
Firstly i recommend you download the update again from here:
http://www.tomtom.com/support/index.php?FID=3581&Language=1
Or a direct link:
http://www.tomtom.com/updates/ttoneupd545.exe
Then disable your firewall/anti-virus, i always find they get in the way
Connect your One to your pc via the usb cable and turn on your one. Then after it's finished thinking, doubleclick the update file to start the upgrade process. Remember you need to click on "install the application"
then it should update your one.
I always find after updating to turn the one off completly then unplug all of the cables, take the sd card out, re-insert and turn on the One.
Let me know if something doesn't work.
Please could other people post their findings on the One update and their boot versions ect.
Cheers,
lydiahris |

Don't see why you should. I never have when I've upgraded software on my Go300. Maybe something specific to the One?
What you WILL lose are any alert voice files (because the data.chk will get overwritten by a new version). But you would need to find and download the right one for the new firmware version anyway. |

I've just done mine and it was harmless.
Boot version has remained the same - 4.28
Camera database appears intact.
And yes, screen is brighter.
Does anybody know what the actual improvements are, other than increased compatability with bluetooth phones? |

I have upgraded to the latest update and have definately NOT lost any camera database. I have lost my POI warning voices, which I was quite attached to and as I don't have a new data.chk file for this version, I may go back to 5.42. The screen is definately brighter with 5.45, but othersiwe I can see no difference. _________________ Tommo...

I've just done this upgrade and on the device screen I now get:
App 5.450 (5652/060328) OS:1011
GPS v1.21, Boot 4.28
Map: 'Great_Britain-Map' v605
I do remember Boot was 3.30 before the upgrade, and I've also noticed OS has changed too, it used to be 1008. |
