Have spent a long time trying to get my tomtom5 navigator working on my mda and now have it all going lovely - however I cant get my bluetooth reciever to be seen by tomtom. It is one of the BT-77 one that you see loads of on Ebay - did used to have it working with my old phone but not this one?
Any ideas - cant give up now!
Thanks
ROger
I have the same problem with an xdalls with a BT338 bluetooth gps.
I can get it to pair up. Tomtom5 does not see it though. Been thru all the settings that i can thing of.... i have the blue light flashing fast and then just logs off.

I have the BT-77 (also from ebay) and it works perfectly with the TomTom 5.21 software...
I had trouble with it initially too- it's to do with setting the right COM ports.
To get things working, I downloaded and installed Pocket Bluetooth Tools:
http://www.bluetooth.jazztel.es/ Download version 1.0.1.2
Delete any existing pair that you may have with the GPS receiver...
Re-pair the device with the above software installed, and now you will get an iconic menu, use the serial port option and select an available COM port. Complete pairing procedure as per on screen instruction.
Now start up TomTom and go to GPS options in preferences- select 'other bluetooth device' and now you should see the something called 'BT on COMx' x being the port you assigned earlier of course. Complete configuration.
Wait for the receiver to get a fix and you should be ready to go.
I've used the Pocket Bluetooth Tools many times on different variants of the Magician and has work everytime.
Hi

Hi!
Just registered to try and find out how to get my MDA II working with a bluetooth GPS and I find this thread. Thank you for the link to the bluetooth tools it seems to have worked a treat.
Cool. Glad it is working for you guys.
The software also works well with using Bluetooth and ActiveSync.
Hi
Is somebody using IGO with success???
I have a Nokia GPS module and according to the status lights it has a position and is connected to the Pocket PC - still IGO doen't know of a Positon.

cheers

Hi,
I can only say that it works for me using the com8, 4800 baud with Clipon-BTGPS.
You can check my rom version and my model in my sign.
have you create an outgoing port in bluetooth settings?
Hi
Yes I created an outgoing port. And If I Trust the LED's on the Nokia Bluetooth GPS mouse there is a Connection.
The settings worked on my Wizard.
I have a T-mobile Vario II with Austrian Software.
ROM 1.21.112.3
Radio 1.05.02.00

Hi
I made one more test I have a little .net application porgrammed that talks with the GPS. And I get Data allright with exactly the same settings.
In the Meanwhile I am on COM4 with 38400 baud.
Also Navizon Works. - Strange Strange Strange.
Then I use Navizon as a virtual GPS on COM8 and it works - how strang can it get.
Navizon on the other hand doesn't recognize the phone Part of the TyTN

Hi
the Thing with Navizon in the middle is verry unstable = not usable.
Anybody other Ideas?

Hi
Anybody runing I-GO on Hermes so far?
Is it the GPS or the Device not working with I-GO
TOM TOM 5.2.21 works no problem.
BR
Daniel
iGo works perfectly in my TyNT
iGo works perfectly for me. I'm using NMEA com9 and a 4800 baud rate with my fortuna clip-on.
I also have tomtom (not installed yet) but go with iGo because I visit eastern europe often (Croatia at the weekend).
A nice touch is that inserting the memory card autoruns the application. To take advantage of this I would be interested to know how much of the application can be moved to the memory card (freeing up memory in the device)? In an ideal world the application would be totally contained on the memory card. Any ideas?
Hi
I also have new News:
As it as TOMTOM is working it is Realy the combination I-GO Nokia LDW3 that causes the Problems.
My Current workaround is to use GPSProxy which is Free. It is more stable than the previous workaround with Navizon.

Hi all,
Everytime I use Tomtom V6 on my Orange M600 I have to delelte and re-pair my BTGPS unit. If I don't then the Tomtom software cannot seem to see it. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, has anyone found a solution?
Well, i also have this Problem. I also use TomTom 6 with a BT GPS unit, and after every softreset or longer disconnect i have to re-pair the device and enter the code. If i don't TomTom will not see the device any more. I haven't seen any thread with a solution yet.
On my XDA Mini with WM2003SE i never had this problem, so i guess it is a WM5 thing.
Is anybody here who can help me. I have the german Rom 2.15.4.29 GER. Radio Rom is 02.19.21.
Maybe there is a way to fix it in the registry... nothing else is installed yet.
Thanks in advance ... Marc
Ok, can be closed.
The solution is:
uncheck the security mark when installing the com port
Cool, thanks matey. Works a treat
I just recently upgraded my 8525 to the new AT&T Rom update and can't get my Tom Tom One to pair correctly with the 8525. On the Tom Tom it says no services are available.

There is lots of advice here and on http://www.modaco.com/HTC-Hermes-HermesMoDaCocom-f204.html but you ned to be clearer about what you need help with. Are you Blutooth pairing a Tom Tom GPS Receiver with your 8525? Can you get the 8525 to actually pair with the receiver succesfully?
Sorry but you may already know all this - but it's unclear and I see this is your first post. There are plenty who can help if you can provide more information.
Regards
He's trying to pair a TomTom One GPS Navigation unit to the 8525. Likely to access online services like traffic, weather, etc..
As for an answer on the Bluetooth, the only thing I can think of is make sure you can pair other devices, and give the phone a reset. My bluetooth acts wierd sometimes and a reset is all it needs.
What services are you trying to access from the 8525?
I am trying to update traffic info on tom tom via the data connection from the 8525. The 8525 sees the tom tom when looking for devices and tom tom tries to pair with 8525, but it will fails with the following message
The required features could not be found for this phone.
*bump* I have exactly the same problem! (running Black 3.0.1)
Does anyone have any ideas or solutions??
I love the Hermes, but unfortunately going to have to return it to provided in a few days if there's no way of getting a Bluetooth DUN profile working with the TomTom. Damned Microsoft!
Any solution for this would be greatly appreciated! Is there perhaps a replacement stack available which would solve this?
Nick
*bump*
Are there any ROM experts out there who could answer this definitively?
I need to know if there is any possibility of the Bluetooth DUN being added to WM6, or if it's been done, as I need to return the phone to T-mobile in the next few days if there is no chance!!
Much appreciated...
Nick
Bump. Is there no solution for this problem of bluetooth DUN support at all right now? Would appreciate if one of the knowledgeable techies here could answer.
Otherwise the Hermes has to be returned tomorrow, which will suck. lol
TIA, Nick.
same problem here. seemed to work fine until i upgraded to new rom from att. so im sure the problem is within the rom
I just purchased my 8525 and can't get it to pair with my TomTom One. My 8125 worked just fine. Anybody find a work around? Are there any cooked roms that it will work on? I'm happy to upgrade a rom if it makes it work.
TIA

None of the cooked roms have DUN in them. Stupid MS decided that PAN was much cooler so they removed DUN making bunches of devices unusable with the Hermes.
Please guys help me!
I'm fighting to bring a BT GPS with an MDA III to work, but nooo luck and I'm getting very very sad...
I've discovered so far that with the official ROM 1.42 (WM2003SE) it works fine when I manually start the BT connection with serial port service.
Now the problem is that in WM5 and WM6 there is no manual connection ability (maybe another "smart feature") and there is the ****ing GPS Driver of WM. So I'm trying to get a TomTom 6.03 and an iGO to work but nothing at all
Really tried nearly all combinations to configure but zero luck.
It's totally disappointing....
Please tell me how do you use you BT GPS
UPDATE: problem solved with Xplode-s new ROM.
