Welcome to the site....
For general improvement using the Tomtom Speed Cam Database over the default settings
Always use a Computer voice...
Serena or Malcolm... Here in the UK
From the main screen... Tap (.... Menu) -> Setting -> Sounds & Warnings...
Set... 'Warning Type' to... Read Allowed... (Important... Needs a Computer Voice set in the Voices menu)
Speed Cameras & Hazards... Set to ON
The next 10 Setting ALL set to Always
The next 4 Settings ALL set to ON
The device will give the normal Dong/Dong Warning
Followed by....
'Fixed Camera'
'Mobile Hot Spot'
'Average Speed Camera Zone'
'Red-light Camera'
'Accident Black-spots
‘Spoken Traffic delays’
Speed Cams
If you keep a check on the Traffic-bar... The device gives you a visual Warning of the next Fixed or Mobile Speed Camera many miles before you reach the camera
Even more info if in the 'Setting menus' you set-up a Wide Traffic/Route Bar

SuperuserHi all
@ciseca
Independently of settings and updates, if your speed cameras continue to appear randomly, do a Soft Reset of your TomTom device. Recommended after updates, especially Maps or NavCore.
This forces a complete restart of your device internal software and often fixes small issues. You will not lose anything.
Soft Reset:
With your device Not connected to your PC and "Switch On".
Press and hold the On/Off button until you hear the drum sounds. Release the button. This can take 30 seconds or more. The device restarts. If you see a black screen with white text, hold down the button until you hear the drum sounds.
