HI i have the GPSmart BT verision
and i have alos updated the ROm on my XDA II
all i can say is it works very very well i did have a delay when using
TOMTOM and that has now gone
Hope this help you out
I am also using the BT GPS Clip-on with the XDA II. Works perfectly after the O2 update. I'm using Tomtom 2 with the 2.09 GPS update from their website. Im not using it with the com port option, I'm using it as a Tomtom BT device.
Foruna clip on problems
I still can't get the tom tom gps driver to recognise / show information from the Clip on BT gps. I downloaded the latest driver from the tom tom site but still no luck. tom tom's gps drivers do not show the fortuna clip on. I have tried rebonding it with and without the serial port option. When I'm in the tom tom GPS page what GPS driver do I need and what com port do I select and do I need to set it up as com port 5 when I bond the gps????????
Well if you have the rom upgrade installed and you are using V 2.09 of the TOMTOM GPS drivers you can select
the device a TOMTOM Wireless GPS
and set the com port bit to Bluetooth GPS
I use this setup and have never had a problem
Hope this helps
I tried that but no luck, it would not show any satelite info on the gps pages. I notice in the blue tooth settings you can select com ports 4 & 5 for recieving and transmitting , what should these be set to? also when you bonded the fortuna, did you select the serial port option ?
Ta :x
Hi
It souds like you dont have the latest ver of the gps drivers fromtomtom installed
on V2.08 there was no mention of Bluetooth so i think you have that ver installed
And yes when i bonded with the GPSMART it asks me if i want to use the serial profile
Do you have ver 2.09 ? if not i can post it on here for you

I too have same problem - have 2.09 gps but now not getting info, it bonds ok, but won't display any tracked sats, do i need to say yes to serial when bonding?
Yes you must say to to it or it will not work
(that is if you have the updated Rom installed)

All working now :lol:
now the back light drops out
I have tried reloading the ROM upgrade and reloading the Tom tom 2 software and latest drivers from the Tom Tom site (ver2.09GPS driver)
I still am having problems with the fortuna GPS. In tom Tom GPS it does not show any satelites and the little sat dish to PDA legends on the right hand side show no communication
Now the Back light drops out without warning and when I check the back light settings it has reverted to no back light on the battery power! (yes the battery is fully charged) and I keep getting a communication error popping up saying (cannot start communications with desk top computer" and the XDA 2 is not even in it's cradle
HELP!!!
I'm tempted to send it back to O2 for them to sort it out. :evil:
I have used fortuna gpsmart with xda2 with standard rom and had no problems, is it possible for you to download the launchrom from the O2 site and see if that will get you back where you started. You could also try unbonding everything then after loading the latest bthtools rebond and try that.
It worked fine with the original ROM & BT tools patch. I cant find the original rom on O2's site. May be I downloaded a corupt version even though it said updated ok? It took so long to down load on a dial up connection ( Damn XP at work on a broad band connection wont let any one apart from the administrator download programs!!!)
Do O2 send out discs with the rom update on them?
Also just noticed, when I try to turn it off on the power button all that happens is that the backlight turns off and the isplay is still there allbeit very faint. Still at least my BT200 works now!
I had the same problem for a few days after I got the Fortuna, but all went OK, not sure how I did it really, just kept, trying
I wonder if anyone can help me with a problem, sometimes I want to start TomTom2 with no GPS, just to do a quick route for someone, but when I start it, it locks up (presumably cause it cant find Bluetooth), I cant go into the GPS app to turn GPS off with the tick. The only way I can do it is turn on the Fortuna, THEN untick in the GPS app - very messy. Is there anyway to start TomTom without GPS/Bluetooth active?
Good Afternoon, morning, evening whichever applies
I have an xdaII and ever since I upgraded to a newer rom I have had blue tooth problems
I did upgrade to sins 2.06 version and get BT working over active sync
But now when I create all the ports and partnerships and pair the pc and xdaII together when I go to the connect via blue tooth menu when I tap it it does nothing at all
I have tried updating the rom right up to ver 2.20 and it still does the same thing, I can pair and connect from pc to xdaII and the other way around and they can both see each other over blue tooth re passwords and stuff but the xdaII does nothing when I tap connect via blue tooth.
I have searched for posts and tried loads of things but still the xdaII does nothing not even error messages, fine on IR as it says it is connecting but BT No way
Anyone any ideas as it must be something on the xdaII, which is not happening
Thanks for anybody’s time in advance
I have a t-mobile mda II with the shipped rom that has the usual problem with the bt turning on and off.
I have tried most of the fixes posted, only way I could get a reliable connection was to plug the car charger in and leave the display on.
Have had a good trawl through the bluetooth sections of the registry and noticed a key hklm\software\microsoft\bluetooth\sys and key DisableAutoSuspend as shipped this has a value of 1.
I have changed this value to a 0 and done a soft reset for last 2 days my ck3100 has not lost the connection with the mda II running on battery in suspend mode.
may be worth a try
I'll give it a try on my TyTn this evening.
Sure hope this fixes the problem with the connection dropping all the time and BT turning itself off when using it on my Audi MMI BT carkit.
played telephone tennis between t-mobile and htc uk today.. Finaly ended up talking to a chap called John at HTC, who said they were aware of an issue and were in the final stages of testing a release rom update..
T-Mobile had never heard of the mda vario II disconnecting from bt car kits.
Have notice if i do a soft reset and do not connect back to gprs or 3g (so i have a x instead of a g/3g simbol ) the bt connection is much more reliable

Hi!
I've installed a great ROM from babak00000, with Windows mobile 6.5, but i'm now having a bluetooth issue:
- i've got a GPS devide that i use. I've installed the device and user until yesterday without problems. But today I had a problem: my GPS software in Prophet did not recognize the gps device.
- i looked at bluetooth devices under WM, and saw that it was not connected. I used the option to connect, but it gives me an error: device could not bo connected because there was a problem in connection or PIN is incorrectlike that. Well, Pin is correct, so I think it is a problem with something else...
- I have a bluetooth headset that works without any problem. I do not use both bluettoth devices at same time
- I've tried to disconnect GPS device, and reconnect again from the beginning, but the problem keeps appearing.
-I've got configured GPS device with port COM6, and the GPS software as also COM6. Without issues till today.
- I've tried to disconnect and reconnect bluetooth in pda, but with no success...
Does anyone know something about this? Can somebody help me?
Recent edit: I've made a full backup and a hard reset, and the problem keeps annoying.....
Hi.
I was using this Rom but I had a lot of problems with my bt device and wifi and finally.... I have wm6.1 again.... Is the most stable and fast wm version... No problems with my bt GPS device and no problems with wifi at office and home...
Hi all,
My I-mate jam have been eating dust for a while, but i booted it up again and it will not connect to any bluetooth devices.
Tried all ROMS of cotulla, but still the same result.
At one time i succeeded to get connection to my bluetooth satellite reciever, but at that time the USB cable have been connected for a few hours so (backup)batterypower was high.
Could the backupbattery be a problem as it is not in a good condition and needs to be replaced?
thnx in advance
Are you switch beem on?
thnx for your replay.
The beam is for infrared is it not?
So, no i have not switched it on.
