Hi People!
My first message at this board!
I hope you can help me solving the following problem:
I can not establish a Bluetooth connection between the O2 XDA Mini S and the Adapt AD-500 GPS Bluetooth Mouse.
The GPS Receiver is detected by the Wizard but with an "?" in front of its name.
The Bluetooth key is accepted and i made in and outgoing comports but the connection is still not funktioning (no connection recognized by the GPS receiver).
I looked in the WM 5 help on the wizard and it told to do some changes in the settings / gps menue. But there is no gps menue!
Is it because i have no navigation software installed till now? For me it sounds that WM 5 has this gps menue regularly but i can not find it in the settings.
It would be very nice if someone could help me connecting the receiver to my wizard because i dont know how to go on.
Heeelllllpppp!
Kind regards
Carsten
Hello everybody. I have a problem with bluetooth on my S200. I can not discover other devices nore can my device be discovered by others. It seems BT is switched off but in the settings I have everything switched on but it still doesn't work. Can somebody tell me how the registry should look like as a standard with bluetooth switched on and device set to discoverable? Perhaps something has been changed by installing some programs.

Sorry, my english is very basic....
I have installed into the car a "carputer" (One PC with touch screen at the dashboard).
I have a GPS USB from GNS, and at the pc works navigation aplication like Destinator 5Pn or navigon 5 NCK... but nothing like iGo or Tomtom....
The other day, I have finded the "Pocket Controller" soft, with this soft I see the PPC screen into the PC screen, and manage the PPC from de PC... (receive incoming calls, make calls, view TomTom, etc...)
My problem are, I use RoadRunner software into "carputer" and this soft are prepared to received instructions from other soft, like Phonecontrol, Winamp, etc... I need comunicate to the "Roadrunner" window the order "RR_INCOMING_CALL" when the PPC receive one incoming call, and are conected, via BT and Activesync....
I need redirect the GPS info, from the Com port of the USB at the PC to the PPC, via BT, USB, or wifi, I supose with GPSGate I enroute the GPS COM PORT to the BT comunications port from the PC in order to simulate a BT GPS Receiver... It is possible?
This is other post in other forum with images and more explanation...

Hello everybody, Long time reader first time poster.
I've got a little question I'd like to have answered.
I've got a I-mate JasJam and I use it for a lot of things, one is for GPS. To understand my problem I'm going to quickly tell you what my situation was before.
I used to Own a Ipaq RW6828 (Atom) However, I managed to drop it in a mop bucket and it died. (still sold it on ebay and got 80 bucks for it =D ) So I decided to get a Hermes. Back when I used my Ipaq for GPS, All I had to do was turn on the GPS receiver and run TomTom and it would instantly connect the Receiver to the Ipaq and would proceed in using it.
HOWEVER, now with my JasJam, every time I wish to use the GPS, I have to set it up every time ( select incoming / outgoing ports, etc) Which is a little annoying as when I wish to use the GPS, I don't really wish to waste the time setting it up.
Now this leads to my question if you haven't already guessed, How do I get it to do what the ipaq did and instantly connect the receiver to the PDA? I do know one way in fixing it but it requires an upgrade to WM6, and apparently it voids the JasJam warranty if I do so.
One thing I have noticed is that my Ipaq used to have a GPS settings program in the settings menu under the System tap, and the JasJam doesn't. I'm running WM5, and the GPS receiver is a generic one I got off ebay..
So that's my problem, I'd be greatly in your debpt if you helped me figure this one out.
Thank you for reading all of this, I can be the type of person to ramble on
The way I got it to work
Hi There-
I had the same problem this week - and I found the following solution which now works as we all want it. i.e turn both devices on - start TT and voila.
The way I did this.
1. Go into Settings -> Bluetooth and pair your GPS device.
2. Set the outgoing port (i set up port COM port 9 - though you can do whatever is free).
3. In your TomTom folder on your Hermes - you will find a file called: navigator.cfg - firstly take a backup of this file.
4. Then open this file up (note: i transferred it to my PC for editing).
5. On the first line (or second) of this file - you will see a reference to a COM port.
6. Ensure it is the same COM port as per Step 2 above.
7. Copy the file back to your Hermes - overwriting the original one.
8. Then start up TT and give it about 10-15 seconds and you will see that it will automatically connect - each and every time.
9. MOST Importantly do not EVER go into the COM port settings within the TT app on the hermes - as this will overwrite the 'navigator.cfg' file and corrupt your settings. If you do - then just follow the steps again.
Let me know if it works ok for you.
Thanks
Hi there.
Thanks for the reply, however this didn't work.
TomTom is fine once I pair it. It's the fact that I have to pair the Receiver my hermes every time I turn the GPS on. And set it up under the blue tooth connection settings. That's whats annoying me, TomTom picks up the receiver fine when I set it up the first time, So yeah, it;s more of a Windows Mobile thing that I need to fix.
Suggestions?
Could this be because TomTom connects to the device over bluetooth and thus takes control of it?
I use Navigon Mobile Navigator and that "locks" onto the BT GPS, so when I exit that it shuts down the BT. However, if I've got a BT headset switched on it leaves BT switched on.
Have you paired the device already with your PPC device before you let the SatNav software have it's go?
If it is still not saving the settings then it could be a problem with you're bluetooth. I had this earlier in the week and unfortunately the only "fix" I found was to do a hard reset. Cue a couple hours reinstalling
Ahh well. Good luck and you'll let us know the outcome, won't you?!
Thats a shame it did not work for you.
I take it you have gone through the tomtom support notes like this one?:

JASJAM GPS Receiver Bluetooth connection problem!!
hi guys,
i have same problem when imaking a Bluetooth connection with a GPS Receiver i have jasjam W5 OS when i search my JASJAM finds my GPS Receiver its showing (?) question mark i think it is not recognizing well it pairing also but i don't no how to establish connection with GPS receiver there is no connect option my friend has PDA2K it has connect option he can connect all devices but mine not showing please help me
Thanks

Ok. Pairing.
Switch on your phone bluetooth. Switch on the GPS/BT device. Goto the BT menu on you're phone and tap 'add new device' and hold the gps near.
When it comes up with what you think is the closest match then select and press next. It'll ususally ask you to put a password in. This is either 1234 or 0000.
If this is ok then click next or finish.
You might need to setup a com port on your pda for this phone for some other devices to connect. To do this you'd clck on "Add com port" and then select the device and there will be a way of selecting a com port.
I know it's a bit fuzzy but ive not got the device ihere, and this is all in memory.
Cheers, Elwyn
hi Elwyn M3100 ,
thanks for your quick reply, i did everythg seems working fine but i don't know how to connect pairing no problem and port also but my only problem there is no connect option when i go in destinator it says no GPS found .....
i tried to update my ROM but no result .... im having bad luck
Right. Ok.
1. Do you have the BT GPS unit sucessfully paired to the PDA?
2. When you go into your satnav software, is Bluetooth on you're phone switched on?

Most SatNav software, once it discovers you have a Bluetooth GPS module take it upon themselves to switch BT on and off on your phone. In one way this can be helpful, but bloody annoying if you've got a BT headset in use too
However. Once you've got it mastered, things look up from there.
Occasionally as well I find that the BT isn't actually on when it says it is, and a soft reset usually cures that.... Anyway. Congrats
Hi all,
So, two devise exist. The first one is WM6 smartphone (hp iPAQ 514). The second is hp h2210. Smartphone has connection to Wi-Fi and works fine. The h2210 has only Bluetooth. Could h2210 connect to smartphone and to go to WAN via Wi-Fi?
The smartphone provides similar feature for connection BT to GPRS/EDGE not Wi-Fi. It works fine.
Could you have some ideas?
PS. Pardon for my broken English.
Hi!
As I understand networks, my problem is routing problem. So, when I will have the route program on the smartphone, the task (BT over Wi-Fi) will do!
Could you know any route program for smartphone?
