I still have some trouble with the mentioned combination and thanks a friend I managed to narrow the cause to the combination of TomTom and the DConnex:
I am unable to confirm in TomTom GPS the 'Bluetooth GPS' port when I have paired the DConnex.
I am able to confirm in TomTom GPS the 'Bluetooth GPS' port when I have paired a Globalsat BT-308 BT GPS (and NOT creating a serial port!).
Only way to get the DConnex working in TomTom is to pair is and create a serial port. In TomTom you have to select COM5.
The configuration on COM5 works with TomTom as long as there is a BT Connection. When there is NO BT connection, the MDAII hangs upon starting TomTom.
With the 'Bluetooth GPS' configuration (=not possible with DConnex) TomTom works even when there is no BT connection!
As I did not find any answers here, on xda-developers.com and with TomTom Support, I guess I have to live with this situation.
STILL: Any help / sugestions are greatly apppreciated!!!!
I have the dconnex 230 and it works with my XDAII, I can't help you at the moment because the dconnex stopped charging and I've sent it for repair, but if you still got problems when it retruns, I'll detail my configuration.
xda-rocks:
My DC-230 does work with the MDAII.
But in TomTom ONLY when I create a serial port (during bonding) and assign COM5 in TomTom GPS (V3.03).
Is that your config too?
Or did you manage to use the 'Bluetooth GPS' port in TomTom (maybe without creating an serial port during bonding?
I would like to have the latter config as that makes it possible to start TomTom without a BT connection to the GPS.
Like I mentioned: I did succeed in getting this config running with another BT GPS.
Plz note: This is about the Himalaya with latest T-Mobile ROM (1.72.190, but with add-ons) with the DConnex DC-230 (rebadged Holux GR-230) BT GPPS!!!
Hey guys im fairly new to this forum.
Reason Im here is to ask for some help on seting up my gps tomtom for my ipaq 6955. Seems to me some of the people I been reading about theyrs seems to be a reg edit hack step in order to get a gps signal due to com port conflicts.
Does anyone here have a step by step instruction on how to properly get the tomtom working properly? I really dont want to edit the reg and screw up my ipaq, any help would be appreciated, thanks.
HP6955 Tom Tom GPS Setup
I have a UK 6910 with Tom Tom 6 installed. The GPS port settings are Com 7 at 57600 baud. I have had no problems with any of the GPS software using these settings (IGO 2006, Destinator 6, Co-Pilot 6, VisualGPSce & Memory Map 5)
Hope this helps.
Hi (newby here!!)
I'm also having the same trouble. I've recently upgraded from TT5 to TT7.450 (9028) but it can't see the internal GPS device. I've checked the registry - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/TomTom/GPSSettings and all is as previously mentioned. I've changed the 'ComPortNumber' to various other values and even 'Force' to 1 (not really sure what that did?!)
Any ideas?
Many thanks
Hi guys,
Once more...i need your help please...
I have a Trinity running WM6 with no problems...
My TomTom version is 6.30 and everything is fine...
But today i've installed the 7.45 with new maps and...puff...
I always get the "No GPS Device" message...
Anyone can tell me what's wrong?
I've downgraded my TomTom version to 6.30 again but with the new maps it doesn't work...
I really need your help guys...
Thanks in advance...
Tom Tom 7 GPS configuration
Go to Tom Tom 7 GPS configuration and instead of internal GPS select NMEA
GPS settings:
gps program port: com1
gps hardware port: com9
baud rate: 9600
Hi Chaplan...
When i go to GPS Settings i have the GPS Baud Rate screen which i configured with 9600 and at the next screen i have this:
COM3:
GPS in COM9
COM7:
RIL on COM6:
S2410 IRDA
My question is how can i change the values?
When i tap in one of the above lines it just goes to the "GPS Status" screen again...
Thanks a lot for your help once more...
you just need to select gps in com9 and there you go....
Tom Tom says it has no GPS Device for 2 seconds and then says the GPS signal is weak till it gets a fix...
But i've already have GPS in COM9 right?
And TomTom stilles saying No GPS Device eternally
Hi again,
I think i understand now
By this time TTN7 change like you said Chaplan...i have now the message "Waiting for a valid GPS signal"...but it's been about 15 minutes...is that normal?
The Baud Rate is 9600 like you told me before...
And it's working
Thanks a lot for your help once more...
No GPS device!
Hi, Please help me!!!! I've just done a rom upgrade and unclocked my Orange M700.....When using TomTom6, It shows No GPS device!.....I tried the settings....but still no joy.
im currently using the following settings:
other NMEA GPS recieve....Selected
GPS baud rate...9600
COM3: GPS in COM9
COM7:
RIL on COM:6
S2410 IRDA
Please help......I'm going MAD!!!!!!!!!
Thank you
What's the P3600's correct baud rate?
Is a higher baud rate better?
Hi!
I have read the other GPS threads and cannot find a solution, but will keep searching.
I managed with help from here, to get Tom Tom working and also Garmin XT.
Both worked with the internal gps chipset well, but last night they both stopped working.
My version of Tom Tom does not have the inbuilt receiver as an option so I used 'Other NMEA receiver' with COM4 and baud rate 4800 and it did work.
In Garmin's settings, I used COM4 and it worked.
Now both do not work. The Tom Tom just waits for a connection and Garmin shows a panel with Awaiting better GPS Accuracy
Both programs do work if I use an external Navman B1- Bluetooth receiver.
I have also tried PortSplitter but that does not seem to work either.
Any advice appreciated !

Sorry dude, I can't help you out BUT I have noticed there's a fairly newish version of Garmin XT out now
http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=3389
some people may not have noticed
Thanks !
that's the one I am using or rather I am not using but want to use
Ofiaich
sorted now....
Ofiaich
There is a program called GPS Info.
Try to find newest one or use mine from att (it works for Trinity).
It should test GPS.
thanks nimnull!
I am trying now...I do have an app called GPS Test but it doesn't display all of the screens of information. Did so on the Kaiser by using the scroll wheel.
Yes, it works thanks ! I am not sure what all of the numbers mean but I can guess
Ofiaich
More important, that GPS Test should make GPS "fixed".
Hi!
I can see, at the bottom of the screen, [setup][GPS Info] and can see activity but I am not sure where to look for "fixed"
I have not checked the boxes for VTG WAAS or PowerSave
Sorry to be slow
Ofiaich
GPS Test has to write that GPS is fixed and show your position.
If you still have Kaiser you can check there.
Mine GPS in Trinity doesn't work anymore
Hi again,
on my Kaiser, the screen downloads lots of data then stops. i.e. it does not keep on scrolling...like on the HD,
In the GPS Info view, it shows the satellites positioned in the concentric rings, but not figures for the lat: lon:
the date shows as 1601/01/01 So about the time the first Englishman set foot in Japan
so I now check the boxes for VTG and WAAS and the GPS Info now shows
2008/11/13 and also my location.
Back to the HD, checked the VTG and WAAS and date was same as for Kaiser but now has updated. Position updated too.
Screen on HD cuts off the right side of the data. so need some screen rotating utillity
Ofiaich
If GPS Info shows your location - it means that GPS is fixed and works OK!
Hi!
with the he boxes for VTG and WAAS checked, it does !
Thanks very much !

Hi i have a htc touch 2, i installed tom tom navigator 7 that works very well, but it takes a long of time to capture gps signal and a low low signal, no bars!! The only gps configuration i find in tom tom is select device (internal gps), Quick Gps is updated, the configuration in External Gps is:
Gps data port: com4 (porta dati gps in italian)
Gps hardware port: Nothing (porta hardware Gps in italian)
Speed (baud): 4800

I hope in a big help and i have a question: how can i see if my internal gps works fine?

I also found the gps settings in tom tom but i didn't find a way to receive an acceptable signal
Hello, usually the first time when you start using TomTom it can take a while......the settings seem ok. How many satellites does it normally catch; 6 is low and it can go up to 14/15. Can you check this?
Have you tried a soft reset?
Hi Frank, thanks for your answer, tom tom catches 0 satellites, i don't know why I'm able to navigate regardless.
I read in xda that tom tom usually doesn't use very well internal gps without a software launched before who manage internal gps.... are you agree? Can u suggest me one of these software?
Ah, yes i tried a soft reset but nothing changed
:-(
Now i realize also google maps doesn't work, it's the first application who needs gps that i launched and it worked, now searching to solve my problem i noticed it doesn't work anymore.............. :-(
Hi sebaseba78,
I have de same problem that you, if you can find a solution, please say to me at: [email protected].
Thanks!!
I have same issue with previous version of tom tom 7. But installing TT7 Black theme without bluetooth work fine.
Obviously in a building has never tried any GPS device (from tom tom go and ending with the HTC and the gps marine my father). Even if the signal was low with the version you use, thanks all'agps should engage quickly. If you see the correct location on the map is not worrying phenomenon. It works equally well.
Search in this forum version of tomtom black theme without bluetooth (reactivation map needed)
hi there I have the same problem with GARMIN mobile xt and NAVITEL navigator there is no satellite signals (0 satellites) note that it was working very well before, I hope there is a solution for this problem but when i made a soft reset the problem was solved
