TomTom Go 700 with the XDA Exec - Networking

Hi All,
I have had a TomTom Go 700 for quiet a while now and was using this in conjuction with my SonyEricsson K700i to connect via GPRS to pick up traffic reports etc.
I have recently upgraded to an XDA Exec (WHAT A PHONE!). What I have found is that even though Bluetooth connectivity can be achieved for voice calls, the TomTom cannot seem to connect to the XDA to make an outbound GPRS connection.
Any ideas people?
Cheers,
Docta

o2 Staff Very Helpful
Its a shame that after 22 views no one was able to help, but I managed to speak to the o2 support staff and they were able to provide me with some configuration information that worked a treat No longer do I need to return my baaaaadaaaaaas phone!

glad you got it sorted, dunno if ou have been here, but a great resource for tomtom related stuff http://www.mytomtomgo.com/
all the best

Using 3rd party gprs over bluetooth

Hi guys. Here's something that has been bothering me all weekend and i hope you can help.
In my XDA II i have an O2 genie sim but for some reason i can't get it to connect up to GPRS - but never mind because I have an SE P900 with a Contract Orange sim that has GPRS bundle
So what i want to happen is the XDA II to connect to the P900 via bluetooth and use the P900s GPRS connection.
Is it possible?
Cheers

there are tons of guides how to get this don
if you search on google

JAM as GPRS modem - some problems

hi everyone!
i've seen the same post ealier (~4 weeks ago) but don't found decision in there. So asking for again if somebody already found it.
Problem:
I use JAM as a GPRS modem via bluetooth. After voice call receiving JAM close both bluetooth and GPRS connection. So to contnue my work i have to reconnect manually from laptop
Before JAM i've used different phones by SonyEricsson (from T39) for over 4 years and hadnt never meet with this problem.
I've tried to find somethin that may help to decide this prob in GPRS and bluetooth settings of JAM but nothing
and one more questions:
is any software instead of standart WModem, witch always on and ready to connection without any manual operations like starting Wmodem. Soft making my JAM featured as any simple _ordinary_ phone like SE T610 for example?
thanx in advance for your answers (and sorry for bad english

HELP! XDA MINI & Pay as you go / PAYG

Hi, i am looking at buying an o2 XDA MINI S and using it with my pay as you go simcard, it is a relativly new simcard (6months old) And i am just wondering if all of the features wil still work with it ?
THanks for any replys,
Cosstick
EDIT: I Also want to use the xda mini s with memorymap or tomtom/garmin gps, is this possible with a Payasyougo simcard ?
It has all the features that a contract XDA Mini S would have, but you need different settings for GPRS/MMS
and GPS will work aslong as you get a reciever for it.
What are these ? could you provide a link to one that would be suitable ?
And what do they do ?
thanks
i have
http://www.techfocus.co.uk/pages/pr...clid=CODPus_7zI4CFQESEgodv0pvAA&cookie_test=1
that one and it works fine..
it is what gets the signals from the satelittes and transmits it to your gps software on the pda.
i use it with TomTom and works good
So if i have understood correctly, this connects to the xda via bluetooth, and allows the phone to recieve the gps signals ?
thats not a bad price either,
does it sync with the software alright ? or is there alot of setting up to do ?
youve understood correctly
well i understand that if you want to use other bluetooth devices like headsets etc then you have to configure the onboard GPS redirection thing.
however i just use the gps, so it was easy..
took about 5 minutes first try to get a signal.. 1 minute now...(if that)

BT Openzone connection failure

Hi,
Relatively new on here so i hope i'm not asking an already answered question?
Search result was nagative so here goes.....
Just took on an O2 bolt on for wifi with BT Openzone and The Cloud. Tried to use BT Openzone for the first time and i cannot get connected.
I select O2 from the drop down list which redirects me to an O2 page requesting my mobile number as log in. After entering this it will not recognise the number and tells me to try again or to call customer service.
As my HD was bought sim free and O2 do not sell this phone, they can't help.
I did read that some people with i-phones had similar problems and this was apparently down to IP addresses?
Working away from home and need to use Skype for calls home.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Anyone got any ideas?
Sounds like an O2 problem to me. They probably haven't setup your account properly. And not helping because its a Touch HD is rubbish as they gave me support on setting mine up a few weeks ago. They are even ment to be getting the HD on their network soon anyway!
I'd give them a call and don't say that you have the HD see what they saY!
