Hi Guys
Bit of a strange request but anyone know how i can move bluetooth/serial from com1. The reason for this is I have a bit of software for my job that gets its gps info from com1, so i use Gps gate to re route the gps signal but I lose bluetooth.
Thanks in advance guys!

Just a quick 1.
If i get the GPS Software on my phone do i still have to get a GPS Reciever aswell or will the phone do it on its own?
Thanks in advance.

You need to get a GPS Receiver too mate.
Rookie question here: Is it possible to share my Trinity's GPS unit with my Wizard over a Bluetooth connection? Now I don't know if Bluetooth is required to be enabled when using GPS because the Trinity communicates to the GPS unit over BT or if it's just something to get the damn thing working but if it does actually send the GPS data over BT, how would one set the other phone to use this signal?
Thanks.

Try GPSgate http://www.franson.com/gpsgate/
I have shared Trinity's GPS with my laptop before, I don't see any reason why not between two phone.
GPS data is a one way data stream, so you can record it or redirect it to any virtual COM port on any device designed for it.
But I think GPSgate is the only app I can recall that does it nicely.
Also checkout the PocketPC Experts' reviews of GPS software for other possibilities.

You may try also GPS2Blue (http://users.skynet.be/hofinger/GPS2Blue.html) - benefits: it's freeware.
Thanks fellas for your wonderful suggestions. I'm looking into them now.

Hi,
Check out the COM-port settings in the Settings-System-GPS applet and point your software to the hardware port .

Registry hack to fix this.
Hi, checkout this thread
I was having the same problem with tomtom6. The only reason I didn't put it down to a faulty GPS was because VisualGPSce got a signal.
I had done so much shirking around with the unit that I had to hard reset it then carry out the registry hack. I don't have the registry entry in front of me, but if you can't find it, let me know.
Cheers

I have the same problem, I have installed a newer ROM and since then there is no GPS functionality at all.
I have tried to enter the settings described in these forums but none work. Not sure what else to try?

Hi guys, forgive me if i have missed a thread but have had a look and cant find an answer.
I have the Charmer and a BT GPS the problem is, everytime I turn on the GPS the charmer asks for the passcode as if a first time setup. I have looked at devices in bluetooth and the gps reciever dissapears once it's switched off logic says this shouldn't happen. Can anyone help me please.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
bit late but have you paired the device.......
