Try yourselves?! Maybe this happens only with use of a headset.

Works OK for me
I was amazed. I started TT up and tested this specifically as I travel long journeys and need TT and my phone during the journey.
I have a Jabra BT250v paired with my XDA and TT5 is running v5.21
I just voice dial a call and hang up after. The TT sounds are muted during the call (and the TT display shows this). When the call is complete, the TT sounds are unmuted and work as normal.
I didn't do anything unusual.
What are you noticing ?
How do you listen to ur travel instructions?
Do you use the built in loud speaker or have you got a special attachment or via the handsfree headset? Please advise. If through the loudspeaker, how loud is it? I hope to buy it this week if I can find it in stock!!!

Friends,
I have the EXEC and when im using TOMTOM i receive a call, does anyone know how to answer it and Enable the handsfree speaker? I found that i was driving, and i got the call alert and pressed Answer, however i had to pick the exec up, and use it as a normal hand-ear. Anyway of enabling Hands Free?
MANY THANKS
Try holding the Green Button until the speaker is activated + - 3 Seconds
Then switch of Aircon / radio / close the window ...
I must say that Radio 1.06.00 improved the Speaker volume

or buy a bluetooth headset (circa £30 these days) and configure the auto answer feature.
Even without auto answer on my MDA Pro interupts TomTom with the usual call anouncement and I simply hit the button on my headset to accept the call.
i'm having the same problem..
when i use tomtom with bt gps.. and my bt headset.. i cannot make or answer any calls..
the ringtone doesn't sound normal either.. (no continues ringing)
multiple bluetooth devices problem?
TomTom & Nokia Car Kit
I have a similar problem,
I am using a Nokia CK-7w BT Car kit, and a generic BT GPS receiver.
Upon receiving a call, the phone rings as normal, swtiches the stereo off and I take the call - however once on the call I lose the connection to the GPS receiver.
IT must be possible for the two devices to work together as I always receive the calls through the Car Kit.
Any ideas?

Dunno, my O2 Exec with Tomtom 5.2 has no problems. I use a globalsat receiver and currently a Moto HS820 headset, (previously a Jabra BT200, but I broke that).
Navigates fine, when I recieve a call, tomtom is muted, the exec and the headset ring, I press the answer button on the headset, and can take the call, Tomtom will continue to navigate without voice prompts. Finish the call via headset button again and Tomtom becomes un-muted and continues as before.
So the Exec version of the universal at least is more than capable of managing the tasks you require via multiple bluetooth connections. I run in corporate mode if that makes any difference.
tomtom 5?
Im using tomtom 5.21 (i think) with a Bluetooth handsfree kit. Jabra over the ear type. When a call comes in and TomTom is runnin a message flashes up on screen notifying of incoming call. I can answer the call using the soft answer button on screen or by pressing the pickup button on my headset. When I do the message on screen goes away and TomTom carries on just with the sound muted. When I hang up by pressing the call button on my headset TomTom unmutes itself.
Certainly with a bluetooth handsfree kit I have found tomtom works really well.
Can i hear all even in mono on my bt headset ?
EXample I'm driving and using my tomtom5, and to not disturb Can I haer the voice on the headphone ? ANd If I receive a call .. can I hear the voice speed dial ?
Thanks A lot 8) 8)
Here's what I use it's perfect for getting the SatNav instructions into my Bluetooth helmet when I'm on a motorbike:

It's a free program that's designed for this. You can still answer calls and do voice dials but sometimes it knocks it off at the end of a call but it's easy to restart if you put a shortcut on your today screen.
VJVolubilis can do this and a bit more.

Having a question, how do you guys use your phone (incomming and outgoing calls) AND TomTom6 at the same time? I mean, when you are in TT6 and my phone rings, TT6 'minimizes/goes to background' during the phone conversation. After ending my phone call, TT6 again appears. Is it possible to still get the route suggestions with the TT6 voices while making phone calls? And is it also possible to have a separate screen in the HTC 9000 so you can see AND TT6 AND your Phone? (I make most calls handsfree in the car so this would be great!).
Also, is it possible to have the HTC 9000 connect to my Pioneer radio/cd player to get TomTom over my car speakers?
no ideas anyone?
really really no clues?
That's strange.
Mine is minimizing when the call is incoming but appears again in mute mode when I answer. I'm also using phonealarm car profile to automatically enable speaker.
But I do no think you can have voth displays.
My suggestion would be to map a hardware button to switch task.

Firstly, I do not have a Navigator6 device but do intend to get one. Therefore, I cannot answer the following:

As far as the following is concerned:

No, because no HTC device support multi-monitors and split-screens.
And finally:
Also, is it possible to have the HTC 9000 connect to my Pioneer radio/cd player to get TomTom over my car speakers?
Yes, this is possible. You can use the S/PDIF jack and hook it up to the amplifier of your car (yes, you will need an amplifier for you car's audio system to do this). ANother way is the wireless-but-low-quality-audio way which involves using a Bluetooth headset hooked up again to your car's amplifier.

Which version of TomTom are you running (the build number) and have you installed the TomTom BT drivers?
I use TT 6.030. Don t know what BT drivers are............
I use TT6.
After phone rings (i asume u using bluetoth hands free)other ways how d you look at the screen., i pres button on my hands free, and screen stase on TT.
When i left my BT at home, i pres unswer, and then loud speeker, and then tiny TT icon at the bottom of the screen, and it pops up. after hanging the call TT stays .
It also works with my IGo 2006.
When I use TT6 with my MDA Pro with a bluetooth headset and I answer a call the bluetooth connection to the gps temporarily drops then reinstates however after the call is hung up the gps signal to tomtom seems to delay by around 30 secs/
does anyone else experience this and do they have a remedy.

Can enyone tell me if it is possible and how??
I have a Parrot 3100 and works fine for calls but can't put it saying nothing that comes from TOMTOM.
I have a friend that one time he heard the tomtom on a head-set.
But only one time and never more.
He doesn't know how!
Can enyone help me?
seem to recall people saying it works if
gps is connected first and then headset
You need a bluetooth headset with AD2P proflie. The standard hards free profile will only route calls to the headset. That said, if you press the voice dial button on your headset when an instruction is being read out, you will hear it in the headset (once only) - probably what the friend experienced.
Hi. I use a piece of software with my standard bt handsfree.
Chartcross Bluetooth Audio Router
The sound quality isn't stunning, but it lets all sounds that usually come from the inbuilt speaker to go through the handsfree instead
Tryed Chartcross Bluetooth Audio Router on my Trinity WM6 using hands free car kit (Delta System)... When activated it switches off the car speakers (like when calls arrive) but sounds still are on the speaker of pda...
Do you thing it will be necessary a reg tweak?
THX
No idea sorry. I only got my Trinity 2 days ago. I was using a prophet before which worked fine with it. I'll let you know if i do find anything though
IN MY HAND-FREE car kit my tomtom turned off the radio and instructions in car speakers.
right now that doesn't happen.
Infortunately i've tried so many roms i don't know i used at that time, and how make car speakers work again. Any help?
Hi,
I had my orange SPV M700 for a while now, and i been usning tomtom navigator on it! For Christmas I got a bluetooth car stereo, and it routes all my calls etc through it and i can voice dial through it too. I just wondered if there was anyway that I could set up my phone so the tomtom announcements would turn my stereo off and i'd hear the directions.
I know I'm Optimistic but it's worth a go and it would be awesome if i got it working!
Many Thanks
dom
any luck yet? i am looking for the same, or using the BT connection for incoming calls, while listening to a radiostation and tomtom voice through phonespeaker, so i can listen to the music and hear the directions at the same time.
