Why is my TomTom so slow to find a satellite?

Sometimes, actually quite often, I have a problem with my Tom Tom to find a satellite and run the direction then. The waiting for connection is so long that sometimes I used a mobile app instead. I read that by downloading the quick-GPS this problem disappears but it did not work at all in my case.

Does anyone know anything about? Any advice? Any solution?

Quick GPS

Quick-gps is updated weekly so you need to ensure that you update weekly as well

Is there any other solution? updating each week is fine for the first time but then it turns to be a bit time annoying... :) :) :)

Anything else that, it is worth to give a try to solve my problem?

Thanks for the help

Have you downloaded GPS Fix from TomTom?

A confused Tomtom unable to find satellites

I had this problem in France in September in the Dordogne. I first thought it was the terrain, but the problem got so bad I thought I'd have to bin my Tomtom One 3rd Edition. It ended up confused and unable to navigate.

When I got home I ended up wiping it as much as I could and reloading the OS and the map. It is now back to normal and working OK again.
