TomTom Go720 cannot boot up/frozen screen/no response.
Try resetting it. Use a pin or straightened paper clip to push the reset button thru the hole marked "Reset" on the bottom. hold the reset for 15 seconds. then push and hold the power button for 5 seconds to complete the reset. Good luck.
CANT GET THE TOMTOM GO720 RIBBON CORD TO STAY
Hi the USB plug at the end gets loose inside and goes bad. Target sells a direct replacement for it.
If you can't find it in their electronics department look in the automotive section. I believe it cost around $17
Tomtom stuttering
TomTom Home now has a fix which corrects the stuttering problems with the computer voice needed for the 'text to speech' function on the GO720. Simply plug your device into your computer and have it connect with your computer. You should automatically see a large fix available which will correct the problem. Download it as I did, and the problem is corrected.
720 GPS screen off center
This is just a guess, but when you reconnected the flat ribbon cable cable to the board, you might have somehow not gotten it centered in the connector.

Do i use both the hard plastic adhesive disc or
The disc is for attaching your unit to the dash. On the glass, you just need to stick the mount to it. Make sure the glass is perfectly clean or the mount and GO720 will eventually fall off. Also the oem mount is just a general pain at best. I went with an aftermarket mount to eliminate the problem.
I HAVE A TOM TOM GO 720 I SWITCH IT ON NO PROBLEM
The GO 720 charges quite slowly when attached to the in-vehicle cigarette lighter cord. If you have a USB attachment (that allows you to connect the GO720 to your computer) just insert the GO720 into the USB cradle - you don't have to turn it on - and let it sit there for about 10 hours. You should see the green light on the GO720 indicating that power is being received. In fact, I don't think you even need to turn on the computer, as power is always fed to the USB circuit. If you see the green light, then the GO720 is being charged. I think your GPS just needs a good charge.

Basically: 'Change preference' (look for Spanner image Icon) -> Scroll right Arrow until 'Change language' (look for Flags image Icon) -> Select English -> Select an English Voice
To set Home address:
''Change preferences' -> scroll right to get 'Change Home Location' -> use 'Adress' to enter new address or 'Recent destination' to select a recently entered 'navigate to' address.
Hope it helps. Let me know how you go and good luck.

New Tomtom, now what to do first?
Connect to computer and do a full backup of device contents!
This is a crucial step wich you should not ignore.
DO NOT use Tomtom Home software to do this, do it manually from within Explorer or similar for MAC. Make sure all hidden/system files are visible when you do this.
Keep this backup in a safe place, a good idea is to burn the backup onto a CD/DVD.
The most important part to have backed up, is your map folder(s).
This is where the license part of Tomtom comes in, the software is free, maps aren't...
My computer wont detect my tom tom go
go to tomtom's website and manually download their software. Save it to your HD and run it.
The program should automaticly load the correct drivers and will prompt you when to connect the GPS.
TAKE NOTE of how long you are allowed to get free map updates and make sure you do update the maps before that time expires.
also with my GO720 I skipped an update so instead of the update costing $49 they now want double that because my maps are 2 revisions old.
