Hope someone can help. I am evaluating 2 devices (Qtek 9100 with a standard UK Vodafone Rom and a UK Orange M600). On the M600 when using Tomtom I get the option to connect an Other NMEA GPS receiver I have the option to select "Serial on USB". However on the Qtek 9100 this option is not available.
Can anyone advise if this is a limitation of the Qtek 9100 or is it a limitation of the ROM I have installed.
Thanks
AFAIK you cant connect a serial USB to the Wizard.
I dont believe this is a ROM issue but a hardware one.
Hope it helps

Why is it that the Holux driver does not appear in the Tomtom list of available drivers. Can't seem to install anything from the CD driver supplied with the GPS receiver. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you in advance.
I got this from the tomtom website and posted it here a few weeks ago.
If you are thinking of buying TOMTOM 3 please read this from the TOMTOM website.
Compatibility
- Not compatible with Holux GPS Receiver
- Not compatible with Integral Compact Flash Cards
- Not compatible with CF Type II cards (Microdrives)
- Not compatible with TomTom II Maps
I got mine working with tomtom 2 by downloading bluetooth tools patch but havent tried it with tomtom 3.
I decided to give it a try. if you have the gps already bonded make sure you delete the bonding first. Download and install the latest bluetooth tools from here
http://bluetooth.i-networx.de/index_e.html
Set bluetooth to discoverable mode, choose "new", it will find the gps, enter code, mine is 6268, when you ok it, bluetooth tools should pop up, I chose serial/com4. Once complete, make sure bluetooth mode is "on".
Go to tomtom, choose "gps", go to the lower box where you should now see your holux gps listed, choose this then tick the large box on the left. You should now have a working tomtom3 system despite what it says on the tomtom website about it not working. :shock:

I am using the DCONNEX DC-230 BT GPS, which is in fact a rebadged Holux GR-230.
Flawlessly.
I use Rom 1,72 with native BT stack.
Just bond the GPS, say YES to questions on assigning a COM port
In TomTom select NMEA Bluetooth and COM5
Only issue is that TomTom alsmost hangs the MDAII when it cant find the GPS (ie. GPS off, BT off, GPS out of reach).
Still looking for a solution for that . . .
I have the same problem that TOMTOM hangs. This is very annonying as sometimes I would like to check the Map in TomTOm without having my Holux Mouse with me. I then have to use TomTom Wizard to uncheck the little box in gps setting and then change to simulator :?
Before I was using BluetoothTools and TomTOm worked also fine without a GPS Mouse for a Map, but Bluetooth Tools introduced a considerable lag (looking for bluetooth headset) of the XDA when taking a call, this was also very annoying as I use the XDA2 primarily as a phone, and the phone has to work perfect ....
Greetz
WELL I'M USING 1.60 ROM ON MY XDA 2, BT TOOLS, AND I BONDED ON COM 4...BUT ALL TOMTOM 3 SHOWS IN LOWER BOX IS:
COM 2,9bt ON COM 6, AND bt GPS.....
NOTHING OF THEM WORK...
PLEASE HELP ME...
@RDKAY:
Great to hear I am not the only one suffering from the TomTom hanging without GPS connected.
BTW: What ROM are you using?
I put bluetooth in discoverable mode, it finds the holux gps, it asks "do you want this device as a serial device" answer yes. Switch bluetooth to on, in tomtom, the top box reads tomtom wireless gps, the bottom box reads com 5, it works perfectly.
Im sure you all have latest opdate from tt..or? had the same problem activating major roads, opdate solved this problem..why use wizard changing gps? uncheck recieve all incoming beams in connections, go to programs/tomtom gps change gps to any serial gps..(not uncheking gives an error message: can not open com 1: port does not exits. rom 1.66.00).

@edsub
I am using the Imate 1.72 Rom on my T-mobile mda2... don't think it is a rom issue although...
Im sure you all have latest opdate from tt..or?

I think it might be true that updating TT would do things better but:
I have bought TT with maps for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. And I just needed a Spain Map also which you cannot buy individually (TT just told me to buy also the Westeuropean package... :evil: ) so I got the Spain Map from Emule. :twisted:
Now when I do the TT update the Spain map doesn't work anymore, so I cannot do the update....
.why use wizard changing gps?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Because with opening directly TT Gps its hanging my mda2 completly, I have desactived incoming beams although :roll:
But anyway phone and TomTom work fine more or less, so "never change a running system" :wink:

Its looking more and more towards a rom issue.
People without the issue all have iMate roms
I have Qtek rom
What is your Rom build?
Mine
Version 1.72.00WWE
Date 03/15/04
Radio 1.14.00
Protocol 1337.24
ExtRom 1.72.901 (my own)
Does anyone know if the Qtek S100 is compatible with the Emtac BTGPS Crux II?
the emtac btgps crux II works well with O2 mini , no problem at all with the bt connection.
dont know about jam or the others.
i tried also the Globalsat BTgps 308 with the O2 mini : able to pair but when using with a navigation program, the mini will always hang when tying to close the bt connection and need a soft reset
Same here. No problem with S100.
No problem with Jam rom!
Installing IGO on my WIZARD everything was fine but when I tried to connect it (via bluetooth) with NOKIA LD3W GPS can not connect it.The WIZARD see it ,enter the code to connect and then can not connect it.Compatibility problem?
I have the same Nokia LD-3W adapter and a Prophet. If somebody can help, I have the same problem. Pairing is ok, selecting Serial Port ok, but in iGo there is no connection with the device. Anyway, when I manually change the port in GPS setting page, there is a LED that turns from red to green and flashing. Any ideea?
Thanks!
Hi
I have the same Issues with my Vodafon VPA II Compact.
I Installed the latest ROM from Vodafon - but no help.
Any Hacks? - the Mouse is working fine with my Laptop.
you may have to make a secure connection for it in bluetooth settings.
i found that worked on the old rom...but doesnt on the AKU2 roms.
Problem solved! :lol:
In the last version of iGo (30.05.2006) they solved this problem! U just take this from here and copy it in c:\program files\igo. Works excelent!
Remember! Bluetooth ON, pair the device, select COM port, then in iGO settings select NMEA protocol, 38400 speed, select manualy the port that u selected in Bluetooth manager and non-secure connection. Then just turn off and then back on the receiver and that`s it!
Good luck!

I've got the same combination (Wizard - Mr. Clean AKU 2.3 ROM + Nokia GPS, using TomTom) and it's working without problem. Pair it, create Outgoing COM port but uncheck "Secure connection". Don't use WM5 GPS settings to share the port.
Radek
great! radku thank's it helped! i was still trying to set wm5 ports and when i switched them off it works!
Hi
now i am on IGO and a Hermes (t-mobile vario II) and again the **** will not work...
My Custom GPS Application works.
IGO not. - seems like it doesn't like the protocol or something.

Daniel
Then try either the trick above, it worked with me.
I have Nokia LD-3W and Hermes problems with Garmin XT

Where do you find the setting to uncheck secure. It works fine with Microsoft Livesearch but not with Garmin XT Software. Maybe it has something to do with my settings. I am using WM6.1...help.
Hi guys,
I am trying now for days to sat up a bluetooth-connection, so to get ActiveSync to work with my TYTN/ O² XDA Trion, but somehow it doesn´t work.
My Sony SZ-250C /P uses a Toshiba BT-Stack.
Might that be the problem?
The Stack notices the O² XDA Trion as a modem, I can connect it via a COM-Port, too, means I can send stuff, but ActiveSync doesn´t work.
Actually the O² XDA Trion has only two free ports?
Port 0 and 9?
That are the only ones I can select in the Receiving and sending Ports (dunno the right name for your english device) and the don´t get noticed by ActiveSync. Those ports are also added by me in the Port-List of the Toshiba Stack.
Does anybody have an idea?
It would be really appreciated. :wink:
Same problem with bluetooth
Hello, I have the same problem. I could do it only one time, but after or the TYTN find only a com port and not an activesync server, or the connection do not work at all
did you find a solution ??
regards
Salvo
I Have a Socket BT GPS. It works fine with Qtek 9090 with Broadcom BT managment and tomtom 5.21. With TyTN I can pair, I can see the service (Serial port), I can configure the serial COM. Tomtom can see the port (if I choose COM0, Tomtom see Com0, COM4...Com4.... etc). But Tomtom not communicate with the GPS... no GPS connection.
On Qtek 9090 I can "connect" manually and the blue light of GPS start to flash. With TyTN the light remain fixed... as no connection. But I can discover it, pair it...
Any Idea? Maybe no WM5 compatible?
Thnx, M.
