Hi there,
I've got a SPV M 1000 and looking for a carkit(holder) and GPS mouse so I can use it in my car..
No shop(online or normal) can give me the right information.
Anyone knows if I can use the same as for the MDAII or Qtec2020?
Or any other relevent info?

I am currenty using a Orange SPV M1000 (XDA II) and thinking of having a upgrade to the SPV M2000 (XDA IIs)
I am currently using a wired GPS reciever and car charger Oh wise ones of the Forum Can you answer this queston.
Will this wired reciever and car charger work on the M2000?
Is the car charger port the same on both manchines?
I know a lot of people use bluethooth recievers but i was wondering if i can use the equipment that i already have till i purchase a bluethooth reciever.
Many Thanks
Mine does- I had an M1000 that was connected to a wired gps receiver and now I have upgrade to an XDA IIs and it all still works perfectly.

Hi
I have the orange Spv m5000 version of the HTC Uni.
I cannot get TOMTOM to recognise that my dongle is there I have selected it to use the dongle as a serial port but im still having no joy.
Bearing in mind im very new to this can anyone offer a numbskull explanation as to how I may fix this problem.
Regards

Has anyone got Tom Tom to work successfully on an unlocked SPV M1000? If so, I'd love to know ....
1. What GPS Receiver did you use, and where did you buy it?
2. What TomTom settings worked?
Thanks, and greetings from sunny Spain!

Hi i have got a M1000 working perfectly with Tom Tom 5 and a wired reciever, got the reciever from e-bay shop called think techicology's it was about £30 but the M1000 also works great with my bluethooth reciever, so any reciever will do. i wouls imagine Tom Tom 5.21 would work with M1000 as well.
which types of receivers

a pda phone being unlocked have nothing to do with gps
pda's without phone can use gps too
a gps is unlikely to know a device have a phone or if that phone is locked or unlocked
Hi,
I know some of you would be annoyed with me posting a topic which has been discussed on this forum but after searching a lot on this forum i could not decide whether to buy a bluetooth GPS reciever or Tomtom one?
I have tomtom software 5.21 with the maps and dont mind struggling a bit initially ( for the 1st time i mean ) to get the bluetooth GPS running with Exec but just want to ask all of those who are using their Exec with tomtom few questions.
How easy is it to use Exec with tomtom in day to day life?
Has anybody used both and what do they prefer and why?
Which GPS is the best cos i have seen few with 32 channel etc etc?
Thanx in advance!!

I've been using TomTom on my Exec since about November last year, and to be honest, I wouldn't even consider getting a full TomTom device.
I've got a BT-77 GPS (about £45 off eBay), wired permanently on in my car (I've also got a second if I need to use it elsewhere), and had NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER getting it to work - in fact, I'm bemused at why the whole Bluetooth/GPS issue is such a big one. I simply paired the two, and set up a port - no messing about unhiding the GPS applet etc. Easy.
I've got a Brodit mount in the car - very good. I've also got a Parrot hands-free, so the Exec does everything in the car - phone and sat nav (with Traffic).
Downsides? Well, sometimes the Exec can take an age to start TomTom, but other than that, I'm struggling to think of any.
Cheers,
Steve.
Same rig as above poster (SPV m5000,Tt 5.21 & BT77 GPS receiver) but did have a little trauma with the Tomtom port problem at first :evil: found the solution here though and now it's all good! Tomtom does suck the life out of that minuscule battery though, so a powered mount or a decent car charger are a must. As for the amount of receiver channels - the more the better (for tracking ability - look for ones with the SIRF III chip-set) i believe. Hope this helps
Thanks Oink1 and StevePritchard
I have ordered HOLOX Bluetooth GPS Reciever 32 Channel 4 TomTom from Ebay and it has SIRF III chip-set aswell.
Will let you know how it is for me
Bye
I have been using my Exec with TTN 5.21 for approaching a year now and use it with a SysOn 20 Channel SiRF Star Bluetooth GPS, brilliant piece of kit.
I wouldn't worry about the high end of GPS channel tracking as 12 - 20 suffices. The only problem that I've experienced was keeping the pairing but otherwise it works exceptionally.
Hi all,
Which software version of tomtom supports full postal code directions?
Thanks for all ur input
Bye

Can anyone help, i have recently got tomtom sat nav for my SPV M1000, i bought a GPS receiver that plugs into my M1000 (XDA II cable) but tomtom says there is no GPS receiver, or no GPS signal, what do i do
hear people talking about one having to pick comport to talk with the gps
recall some people having to disable auto recieve beams to get the comport it takes up
