I recently upgraded my Bluetooth GPS Receiver from a rikaline 6030 to an Aktronix with 16 satellites but i can't make it work with my XDAII and Tomtom 3.07.
I can pair it. But when i start the Tomtom GPS Tracker, it can't seem to connect to the Aktronix GPS Receiver.
Any Help will be greatly appreciated
Which port are you using for the gps? Did you accept serial profile when gps was being bonded. Try choosing tomtom wireless gps and bt gps in the bottom box.
I tried to use com 1 port, but xda issued an error saying that com 1 doesn't exist. I then tried 4, 5, 7, 9 to no avail. I tried selecting tomtom wireless gps and bt gps but it still failed to work although that's the setting i used for the rikaline 6030.
The aktronix uses nmea chipset and the manual tells me to use it as an spp slave but xda doesn't have that option. I also tried installing pocket Bluetooth tools but when i tried to pair the aktronix GPS, there's no port number in the serial option. It just has a blank field...
Hopefully you guys can help me sort this out
Try the following under the GPS section (2nd page where the world map is).
Top dropdown = NMEA 0183 v2 Bluetooth
Bottom dropdown = Blue tooth Serial Port COM6
Make sure the box is "ticked"
Also, switch on Bluetooth, go into bluetooth setting,select service, highlight serial port and make sure there is a tick in the Enable service box.

I've selected NMEA 0183 v2 Bluetooth and Com 6. But when i went to bluetooth settings, i can't see service on it. All i can see are:
================================
Bluetooth Beam Authentication
Authentication Required
Bluetooth ActiveSync Setup
Press start button...
Bluetooth Serial Port Setup:
Inbound COM port: COM4
Outbound COM port: COM5
================================
Is this the service that you're talking about? If not, where can i find this service thing that i need to highlight.
ROM Version 1.72.00WWE
Radio Version 1.17.00
ExtRom version 1.72.187
Looking at those setting you should be choosing com 5 for your gps. It should also work by choosing tomtom wireless in the top box and bt gps in the lower box in tomtom gps settings. Try removing the gps from your bonded items, reset the xda then rebond, it should offer to act as serial port profile, answer yes to this.
I also tried installing pocket Bluetooth tools but when i tried to pair the aktronix GPS, there's no port number in the serial option. It just has a blank field...

This is the same problem for me, but with a Royaltek RBT-1000, XDA II and Pocket Bluetooth Tools installed...
Any solution?
Well, I have a similar condition.
O2 XDA II, AA Navigator and Fortuna Clip-On Bluetooth GPS.
It has worked before with TomTom, it STILL works with Microsoft Pocket Streets - you start it and it shows the GPS data.
AA Navigator automatically detects the device, setting the data to COM5 (which seems right to me - Outbound port which means the XDAII initiates the link) and speed to 4800. This is the same setting which is used by (working) Microsoft Pocket Streets, so I'm pretty much confident that the port would be COM5.
Yet when I confirm this, it still says <unplugged/setup wrong>... and the blue LED on Clip-on does not pulsate just like it does when there is the reception with other working software...
Wrote e-mail to AA support (I'm no fool to ring £1 / minute support line...) and waiting the answer... not going to resort back to TomTom...
Hi, I have a brand new XDA Mini, but with Qtek S100 WWE Rom 1.12, and I bought a Bluetooth GPS, Xaiox NAVOne 2.0...
Bluetooth manager can see the gps without problems, but my Medion2004 Navigation Software says, no GPS is avaiable.
I've already read in the users manual, that GPS needs Com8.
As I see in Start -- Settings -- System -- Bluetooth settings, xda mini has Com5 for outbond port, and Com4 for inbound port.
How can I change ? No program is running, if I check.
Please, help me, thanks.
Nobody has a good idea ? I have already tried the Pocket Bluetooth Tools, it can give a solution, to change COM port 5 to COM port 8, my bluetooth gps requires this port.
BUT, this screenshot appears only a small moment (0,1sec) when I install NAVone2.0 gps...
I installed this gps 100 times, everything is the same.
Can you suggest me another bluetooth tools application?
The problem is simple, to change COM 5 to COM 8.
Thanks in advance.
You could try installing gpsgate from franson

change software!
I think you should try change software. I have tomtom 5 to my s100 and it works just fine..
I am having difficulties connecting the Jasjar with my GPS TELETYPE on BT.
The com ports are really confusing me. I am using Destinator 3, and after I have paired the GPS device, and have selected a serial port connection, Destinator can’t find a GPS receiver.
Have anyone successfully connect a BT GPS with Jasjar?

Hi, geovass.
Did you see the prompt that the device supports Serial Port Profile? If not did you try to delete the paired GPS and try to re-pair again?

I have done the pairing twice already. No, i dont get a prompt that the device supports Serial Port Profile.
I've got it working.....
First you've got to pair your GPS.
Then go to the "COM" tab in the bluetooth manager
Add a new outgoing port with the GPS as device
Then install you're navigation software !!!
It works fine in combination with the Jasjar, Emtac GPS and TomTom Navigator 5.1

I have done what you've describe, without installing the GPS SW (destinator) second. Do you think this is the case.
I can never match the com ports i use on the outgoing port and on the Navigaton software. The ports cant be the same...
It seems that i cant select any com ports on the outgoing port except from port0 and port8.
If i select one of those 2, i dont see them in Destinator's GPS settings tab.
Just used a hex editor to change the port manualy in Destinator.ini and it worked like charm !
I have the same issue. I can only connect com 0, 4 or 8 to my Emtac but TomTom5 only shows 6 and 7...
Anyboby who can help?

Me too have had the universal for a week now tried reg hacks utils etc cant get it to use com 0 4 8 evean if enable wm2005 GPS to remap ports ...
same port with bluetooth com ports for syncing
I have encountered the same problem as u, but while trying to get bluetooth connection to sync with PC... so far no luck...
I know the trick is to select COM5 for the Outgoing Port in your GPS, and then, somehow, make TT5 show the COM5. In order to do that, some hacking must be done at the registry which I have no idea how to do that.
BT GPS with another GPS software
Hi,
Anyone using TomTom5 with BT Gps Have tried another gps software?
Close TomTom and tried to connect to the new software serial port and sucedd?
Let me know how you have done.

Does anyone know wheter the AKU2 service when realeased will solve the problems with tomtom not allowing you to select the only two available com 6 and com 7 ports.
Iv'e been scanning other threads and can't find an answer to resolve the probelms with connecting a bluetooth gps devise to tomtom on the mini s.
My mini s is operating on ROM 1.5.4.2 WWE and doesn't have the required serial port manager, is this a common probelm.
Can I ask what version of TomTom you have installed?
I set-up my XDA Mini S last night with no problems. Connected to my cheapo bluetooth GPS reciever (£40 from Mobilefun) to tomtom (v5.210) using COM7.
You need to set-up the com port for the device in the bluetooth connection manager first and then the port should be available in tomtom.
I have tomtom nav 5 installed.
I have also installed the V 5.2.1 patch (if thats correct) from the tomtom website.
I'm using the Holux 236Slim GPS receiver, but when i go into tomtom and configure using Other NMEA GPS on baud rate 4800 (seen this reccomendation on other forums) i can only select COM9, COM3, COM0 and COM2.
In my bluetooth manager i've set up the outgoing port to COM7 (it recognises the devise) but it still doesn't appear in the tomtom configuration.
I'm pulling my hair out with this one, it seems as though may others are having the same problem but i can't find the solution.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

I had same problem last week. I suggest uninstall everything related to tomtom and find version 5.21 after the installtion your device (tomtom) will recognize the port 7 immediately... Regards...
COM ports mismatch
I had the same problem of mismatching COM ports for settings Active Sync sinchronization via bluetooth between PC and PDA Wizard.
I solved this problem by deleting in registry editor the serial devices which were configured on COM6 and COM7 ports on my PC (they were used from a USB-to-serial adapter).
Search in registry editor of your PC which device are configured on COM6 and COM7 ports and remove them from registry if you can.
I strongly suggest you to backup your PC registry before making any changes. Do it only if you are sure of you are doing.
Of course you need PC Administrator profile in order to make any changes to PC registry.
Bye. :wink:
Have a look at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43412
hmmm... as mentioned above it just worked for me but I did a clean install of v5.210 of tomtom and did not do an upgrade.
I think from looking at other posts the version of tomtom is important.
Do the uninstall and see if you can get hold of a full v5.21 installation as I have seen some kicking about on various torrent sites.
Sorry I'm not more help.

Hi guys, i installed tomtom 7 on my xda mini s and bought a HOLOX bluetooth gps reciever. I paired my xda and gps and ticked the serial port. It would not allow me to create a com port for this device (cant create a com port for any device) It shows COM6 and COM7 but i get the error ' the com port could not be created, please check your settings and try again'. When i open tomtom and try to find the gps on the serial port it doesnt work. The thing is, when i pair it connects to pair then disconnects and i dont know how to connect them again, this bluetooth stack is rubbish in my opinion and i cant find a replacement.
Any help/suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks
hooking the holux
I have a holux and same device.
the only thing you need to know is which virtual COM is the holux device using.
You will be giving this info when you pair the holux (bluetooth).
Fairly simple (at least in my case)
Resolved
Hi, thanks for your post.
I resolved this matter by installing the widcomm bt stack and changing certain registry settings.
It now connects when i switch the holux device on.
Thanks again people
