While I'm not certain it is related (to the WNRO update), you may wish to check out a couple of other possibilities.
Yes, the recent WNRO update will ensure the time (on the GPS device) is properly displayed (after getting the satellite signals).
Find out if the software in your GPS device (model, etc.) can be updated (via the tomtom HOME software). If it can, and if the WNRO update is the cause of your not being able to connect, it may solve the problem.
If the software cannot be updated, it's TomTom's way of phasing out (i.e. not continuing to support ) older models of their GPS devices ... and tomtom hopes you'll get a new model, etc.
Otherwise, try to update the "satellite location" information regularly, i.e. the QuickGPSfix (data) patch, using the tomtom HOME software. It provides updated information to the GPS device on the (new) locations of the satellites. [ Yes, satellites do stray from their locations ] That may solve your problem too.

SOURCE: No Sound on my Tomtom one 3rd edition GPS

I did a hard reset (hit the reset button on the bottom with the power on) and the sound was restored when I powered it up. No settings or favorites were lost.

Hi, I was having trouble too and have found the manual for the 3rd edition online

  • If the pop-up window does not appear, browse to the TomTom device on your computer and run the file named Install TomTom HOME.
  • TomTom HOME is also available for download from the TomTom website.
  • For more information visit www.tomtom.com/home
  • Once installed, TomTom HOME will start automatically whenever you connectyour TomTom to your computer.

Free update

If you have a right to a free update (within 30 days of first use), go to TOmTom and download the Home Application to your computer. Install the software and connect the GPS to a USB port. When TomTom Home senses the GPS it will connect to it and run an update. Your free update (if any) will be installed and your maps will be updated.

Yes you can.. Simply hookup usb and then it will connect and download updates. You must first have TomTom Home installed, it is inside the GPS's files, or download it, best idea, to get latest copy, from TomTom

I've updated my tomtom and now i have a very faint screen and no sound

Maybe you updated to incorrect software. Try and do it again, paying careful attention to model numbers and software versions.

I downloaded updates for my tomtom One 3rd ed. updates show on my computer but not on my tomtom.

Tomtom home software usually does the updates.

Check that the AUTO option is not disabled.

You might also want to upgrade to TTH 2.7 if that is not your version.
