Can XDA 11i work with both Tom Tom & bluetooth speakerph

I bought an O2 XDA11i because of voice activation so I can make hands free calls when I am on the road and also because it is also able to operate as a Sat Nav device. I bought a bluetooth Jabra SP100 speakerphone because the speaker on the XDA was not loud enough in the car. I then bought a Fortuna GPS bluetooth receiver and loaded Tom Tom Navigator 3. As soon as Tom Tom software was loaded I could no longer pair up with the speakerphone or any other bluetooth headset. I took it to the O2 local shop who were helpful but could not resolve the problem. They tried to contact Tom Tom who indicated that once their software once loaded the XDA could not pair up with another bluetooth device.
Can someone tell me if they know a way around this problem or if there is another brand of Sat Nav software that will not give me this problem?
I only need the XDA for Sat Nav and voice calls in the car and have spent about 2 months trying to speak to an expert. If you can help it will be a big help.
Thanks.
I am using Tomtom navigator 2 USA along with a jabra bluetooth headset on my XDAIIi and they both work very good simultaneously. I can talk through the headset and still connected to the gps. I think the problem is that you are using the same COM ports for both the speakerphone and the sat nav so that only one can be used at a time. Try pairing hte speackerphone first from the bluetooth manager " add Handsfree/headset setup" then pair the tomtom and choose COM 6 from the gps menu of tomtom software.

Bluetooth
Mine doesn't work if I connect both devices the bluetooth headset continually annouces itself and asks for a pin!!

Bluetooth hands-free and GPS at the same time

OK, I've never used BT but am thinking about getting a BT hands-free kit, possibly the Parrot CK3100

Will this product work with an MDA Pro as a speakerphone through the car speakers? What about for playing MP3 files? Mono or stereo?
Also, if I later retire my old XDA 1 from TomTom duties and get a BT GPS unit for the MDA Pro, will it work at the same time as the BT parrot CK3100?
Also, I assume the CK100 is powered by the car: how do you cope with powering GPS and Universal devices? Run off the battery or multiple cigar lighter attachments?
This can help you take the right decision

Sounds like an expensive way of getting tinny sounds through a small speaker to me. I already have bought TomTom 5 and use it on my old XDA 1 with a wired GPS unit. What I want is to use my MDA Pro as an mp3 player and telephone through the car speakers and expect one day to get a BT GPS unit and use the Pro for Tomtom instead of the XDA 1, but I'm just wondering about the feasibility of such an idea.
What I have is a similar set up but I guess it should work for you.
I am currently running my Universal with a BT headset and a BT GPS receiver. I use the headset to hear all the commands for turning by the navigation software and so far it works great.
That's great, Vapor, thanks. I'll see if a vendor can help with compatibility then.
I have o2 MiniS paired with a Parrot CK3100. It works fine. The quality of the sound is very good as it uses the car system.
The Parrot can be set up to sync with up to 5 separate bluetooth devices. If you want GPS there is the Parrot LS3400 GPS which does everything.
I have not tried it playing MP3.
The fixing costs are exorbitant and the unit can be bought for around £100 (less for 3100) and fit it yourself it is very simple. Just two link cables for speakers and power plus install dashboard unit and microphone.

Vapor, I use a Qtek 2020 (Himalaya) with a wired GPS and a Midland BT Intercom. I get the sound from the phone, no problem, but I cannot receive any sound from the Tom Tom Navigator 5. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Javiersen
well I am not too sure about the other set ups but what i did to my universal was to disable the voice command from launching when i pressed the button on my headset. there's a reg hack for it somewhere on this forum about it.
once the buttonn is pressed, it opens the audio gateway (though in mono) between my phone and the headset and every sound from the phone (including the clicks) gets played to the headset.

Multiple Bluetooth Devices

I have a Nike and also got a Jabra BT3030 bluetooth headset and a Freecom keychain GPS.
When the GPS is connected and I turn on the headset, the GPS drops out, is there a way to have them both running together?
Thanks
Jonny
I use a Dual too, and in my car I have:
Parrot hands-free (BT)
GPS receiver (BT)
Each time I enter my car, the parrot detects and connects to dual, and the GPS conects either.
Even when I am in call the gps continue to refresh without problems
It works with my other bluetooth head set but this jabra one is a stereo headset with hands free.

Wired Head set and TomTom

Hi, Can anyone tell me how to get TomTom to issue route instructions through the HTC wired headset rather than the phone speaker? It would be really usefull to just have the instruction and not have to worry about looking at the maps.
try the latest version of tomtom nav, you want to find TT7_910_9185_vga black.cab I installed this last week and voices now come through my a2dp bluetooth car stereo which they never did on earlier versions of navigator7
Thanks for the info but I have never managed to get mine to work with the Motorola car kit I have in my car. It says it connects and the buttons work the stop start of the music but I get no sound. Any ideas as this would be better than the wired head phone. By the way I used the blue version. what is the difference between this and black?
I've been using TT7_910_9185_vga black.cab and when I plugged in my headpsones the instructions came straight out of them.
No idea about your car kit but TT navigation works fine over BT headsets. Just enable both wireless stereo and hands free profiles on your HD.
I once did get wired TT audio on my Wizard but that was ages ago and I cannot remember how. Besides BT is the way to go.
Tried both TT versions mentioned, UI colour is the only difference.
make sure your BT device is connected before starting tomtom, i noticed mine coming thru phone instead of car stereo speakers yesterday and I had started tomtom in the office before leaving to check it new the address i was going to, hence the instructions came out of the phone and not my BT device.

Bluetooth Music - A2DP

My new car navigation ( KIA Rio) want me to use A2DP to play music from mobile device and to the Navigation unit.
I don't know how to enable A2DP and after connect to the car Navigation . Please help me.
A2DP is enabled by default on your phone.
You need to have bluetooth on the phone turned on prior to connecting with your car.
Then sync with your car and follow the onscreen instructions and read your owners manual.
The S7 ad2p feature doesn't seem to be working with my Parrot Mki9200 carkit. Nor will it autoconnect for some reason.
It pairs and connects manually with handsfree working for calls, but music won't stream over ad2p to the kit. (Music streaming is enabled, even tried adding it as a trusted device).
Anyone any ideas?
I'm having the same issue with mki9200 and a galaxy s7 edge.
Call audio works fine. Music streaming nothing at all.
