Hello,
Some problem with Tomtom and bluetooth GPS ?
Some problem with Stereo HeadPhone A2DP ?
NB : but works fine with a bluetooth Handfree !
How ?
After associate your bluetooth GPS or A2DP HeadPhone, it works fine.
But when you turn off bluetooth, It won't work anymore !
Why ?
When you turn on TyTN Bluetooth, the phone won't re-link your GPS.
Effect : when i push Bluetooth handfree button, it research for TyTN Bluetooth, So the link is reactivated and the HandFree still works.
Solve : reactivate Link between TyTN and your Bluetooth Accessories
NB : When you launch TomTom, it search for you configured GPS. so it relink.
How To Setup TOMTOM (General).
Install TOMTOM
Link you're Bluetooth GPS with the TyTN and activate COM services.
Create only a Output Series Port with your GPS. (COM 0 also works)
And set up TOMTOM with bluetooth GPS on port x.
It should work even you don't lock Sat.
So....
I never used bluetooth GPS device so what I found so far with IOgear GPS receiver is strange.
Whenever I switch on my Wizard and GPS device within a range, I'm prompted to establish pair with it (even though I already done it before), then I have to manually setup outgoing COM port in Bluetooth manager and only after that mapping software can see GPS device.
I have to do each time I switch off and on GPS bluetooth receiver, is it expected or something is broken with my Wizard OS or GPS receiver?
I use WM6.
Here's one for the books..
I have an external bluetooth GPS module for my Wizard. I use TomTom.
The GPS and TomTom will work with each other even if I have Bluetooth turned off in the communications manager.
I suppose TomTom overrides the 'off'ness.. however, the GPS device is the only thing that works. Handsfree does not.
Comments?
This is interesting. I guess OFF is not what it used to be.
Did you check if TomTom switches BT on while running and off after shutdown?
Bluetooth still off!
Indeed, bluetooth still shows 'off', and while tomtom is running I still can't make bluetooth calls. For anything except TomTom, bluetooth remains off even while it's on!
I have upgraded my BA to WM6 and have found that when using the BT GPS that the GPS will disconnect when I turn on the BT handsfree headset.
Can anyone provided me with some assistance to allow multple BT sessions to be connected.

Thanks baniaczek I will give that a try
baniaczek I have made the changes but it will still not allow gps and headset to connect at the same time.
My problem was this on a Hermes running WM6:
When using TomTom Navigator 6 with an iBlue BT GPS receiver, if I take/make a call with my SonyEricsson HBH-IV835 BT headset, the headset becomes disconnected after approx 30 seconds. In order to be able to use the headset again, it must be turned off/on.
I fixed it by NOT selecting to use "serial port" after the iBlue was paired. I set the program port to com6 and the hardware port to com0. Works both with TomTom and Google maps.
Yeah I had this too.
try this it worked for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328982
good luck
I run TomTom 6 on my Wizard with a bluetooth GPS. If the Wizard is also paired as hands-free to my car, the actual position on TomTom lags a few hundred meters behind where I am. If I 'disconnect' from the car, it's OK. Its great to be able to have Bluetooth both to the car and to the GPS antenna, but is there any way to fix this issue ?
