TomTom Bluetooth is fixed (!)

You need GPS2.09, and it's available from the support site (!)

Are you saying that the bluetooth problem with gps is solved by the tomtom update and that I will have no need of Towas bluetooth patch.

That's it.
Just install the new driver.
Bond your BTGPS and in the driver select bluetooth gps.

whats the best BT GPS
hi guys/galls
whats the best GSP reciever, for Tomtom Nav2 with the XDA2 ?
I was using the Hiacom HI-203e (cabled) but since the cables is now busted its not worth replacing it. I'd rather have a BT GPS, so whats your suggestions, pros and cons etc etc...
i'd be glad to hear, as I don't want to waste any money..
Cheers,
Sno... :?

Just wish the update was stable. I lose all my Checkboxes and Buttons when I open it.

Have you updated the application ?
I had this problem until I installed the update to 2.24
Goto www.tomtom.com /support for the update

another MS bluetooth COM-port hack

Occasionally I've found a site: http://support.dell.com/support/dow...egory=0&os=PPCA&osl=en&deviceid=4351&devlib=8
this update was designed for Dell Axim X5 PPC only, but after installing it on my Imate I've found a "com ports" tab in the Microsoft Bluetooth settings. Can someone test this update, maybe it would be useful for those who have problems with BT GPS? I cannot test it myself yet.

interesting, There is a new dll (BthVCOMMgr.dll) and some reg settings ( HKLM/sofware/microsoft/bluetooth/serial/config) in the CAB.
I did not know the Dell also uses the MS BT stack for its BT extension pack!!!
Might be worthwhile knowing how users of the Dell cope with this BT Stack . . . .

Hey, it works. Great
I tried it with my Fortuna BT Clip-on and TomTom 3 and it worked with
virtual COM-Port 7.
Before I needed the Pocket Bluetooth Tools to get my BT-Mouse work with TomTom.

Would like to know:
WHAT works (especially when 'it' didnt work before)
WHAT is your ROM version?
WHAT is your ROM origin?
Do you use BT with a BT BPS and TomTom3?

Hi,
please can you explain me how to configure-use it step by step. I would like to use my TomTom BT receiver with other apps. As you know you can do it normaly, but If I create a virtual com port mybe...please help me, how to do it? Do you think it can solve the problem reletad to BT headset profile too? I mean that will I use BT car kit and BT headset both?
Thanx a lot!
@edsub
File comes into compressed format. To install it, is it enough to extract the file and copy build.PPC2003_ARM.CAB on my Qtek2020, or should I copy build.ini and register.bat files too?
I have native Qtek2020 BT stack and the last ROM 1.72 ITA...will it work?
Thanx again!

Yes, that's enough.
You just pair your BT-Device as before, after that you will be asked if you wanna give it a COM-Port. Do that like you see at the Screenshot.
That's it. Wish you success

I was trying to to use GPSDash, by setting a virtual com port to TomTom BT receiver...but it's hard to find the right combination between COM port and Baud Rate, working for my Qtek2020 (1.72)
I also have tried to uninstall the BT Dell patch (that seems to fit perfectly to Qtek 2020), and tried to connect GPSDash via COM5...but with no positive results.
So:
1-can someone suggest me a GPS SW to test with BT Dell patch and TomTom BT, easy to configure?
2- do you think I can use BT Dell patch to assign a virtual COM port to my BT CarKit, in order to let it work, beside BT Headst? Which com port usually is assigned to BT headset and which virtual one should I assign to BT car Kit, to test if it will work?
Thanx again!

From what I read here is the only thing different this tool allows you to manually select the BT-assigned COM port. Without this s/w COM4 is selected for inbound and COM5 for outbound . . . .

I've tested it on my 1.72.00WWE
You CAN assign ports.
Only the BSP: ones succeed (looks like all other ports allready exist)
It did not benefit me when using Tom Tom GPS: I was hoping to be able to use the 'Bluetooth GPS' portsetting wich would prevent my MDAII from almost freezing when I start Tom Tom navigator with the GPS out of range (currently GPS uses COM5 which is fine AS LONG AS the GPS is in range and switched on)

Run many GPS applications using one GPS

Has anyone tried the http://franson.com/gpsgate/
for Qtek S100?

Nope,
I managed to run TT & VisualGpsCE @ the same time though.

I want to use Bluetooth GSP and Bletooth headset at the same time.
Anyone tried that?

I have tried it on a Wizard with a Holux GPSlim 236 (BlueTooth) GPS, and it works great!

I ve also tried it with the same Receiver on my Magician. Works great! With this tool you can share any serial connection, for a headset i think, you dont need to use this program

Looking for Freehand Bluetooth tools

Dear All,
I'm looking for a tools to switch off/on Freehand.
Why ? Because to use Tomtom bluetooth GPS, Freehand should be off (can't attach 2 devices at same time).
Thanks for your help !

2 bluetooth devices WM6
i'am using WM6 from Helmi.
With official WM2003 ROM and widcomm stack i can use
headset adn GPS at the same time, but with WM6 and
MS stack no.
Are there some methods to solve this issue?
Does exists widcomm for WM6?
Thank's

My headset bluetooth disconnects my GPS bluetooth

When I run Tomtom6 with my Emtac BT GPS,it works perfectly.
When I use my headset motorolla HP500, it works perfectly.
But when I launch my headset when using tomtom6,it always disconnects the GPS.
Coud someone help me,please?

I have the same problem with the original WM6 of Helmi.

I'm using the same ROM as you. Does anybody have this problem with the others ROMs?

Other roms have same problem！

No dice, I changed it from 1 to 2 and same results. It has been this way with every 6.x ROM I have flashed. Still waiting for a solution.

Bt problem
Hi !
And if we change the bluetooth broadcomm stack ? it was only an idea ....
Tamage

I also tried to increase the maxcommunications value with no success.
I haven't tried the stack software yet because in some posts, I've read that it solved the bluetooth file transfer but not our problem. Maybe I will try but I'm not confident on it.
I'm downloading the 6.1 ROM from PDAviet and will inform you in many minutes about my result.

Unfortunately, it's the same result with the 6.1ROM from PDAViet

I think that there isn't a solution for this problem...it's a limit of BT stack of BA.

No,it's not due do the BT stack of the BA because it runs perfectly with the original WM2003SE. It should be due to a BT different management from the OS WM5 and 6.

Well it didn't run "perfectly"on WM2003SE. It also was a main problem on that OS too. Especially in receiving calls. The opposite site wasn't heard!

I presume you meant to say a limit of the BT hardware in the BA not the stack as the stack is software. This is a known bug in the WM5/6/6.1 ROMS, multiple connections works fine in WM2003SE but not in the hacked ROMS.

On my MDA3 it works fine, BT GPS and BT Headset together.
Have a look here.
But sound ist only working on phone, the voice/sound from navi won't come.
I tried BTAudioToggle but all I got was random noise.
