BT GPS AND DESTINATOR PROBLEM - HELP PLEASE! Very urgent! - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Hi,
tomorrow i have to go abroad, and i want to use my QTEK9000 as a route planner.I have the following problem during the initialization of my bluetooth GPS device(HOLUX GPSlim236):
the bluetooth manager recognizes the device,but when i want to select a COM port as an outcoming port, i get the following error for port 1,2,3,5,6,7,9:
THE COM PORT COULD NOT BE CREATED.PLEASE CHECK YOUR SETTINGS AND TRY AGAIN
I want to use the GPS under Destinator PN and the software allows only COM 1,2,3,6,7,9 to select. But under bluetooth manager each of these ports results the same error(only COM port 4,8 and 0 is good).What could I do? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GPSinfo

Where can we get the GPSinfo program for the WM6 roms?
Here you go...
Unzip the .exe and copy it to the Programs or StartMenu dir on your device
uploaded...
Use this...
It is complete.
(Just run the cab go to program's and run it...
Also he have a new icon by mun_rus)
I see it doesn't work on P3300.
Thank you
Thank you
even for me doesn't work on p3600 the cab...
troubleshooting devices ...
hello, I need some info from the developer:
In the tab 'GPSinfo' I see on the top line 'Date' :
Is this calculated from the GPS signal or what?
My problem:
I can run GPSinfo on two identical devices, Pharos 600e, WM6.1
On the first one, it works OK and I get GPS lock, and the 'Date' field is updated with the current date
On the second, identical device, I can not get GPS lock, the 'Date' field shows a date in 2006 "2006/04/16"
On both devices the GPS driver seems to work, I see the GPS light blinking, and the NMEA data scrolling in the 'Setup' field of the program.
I suspect a (hardaware?software?) problem with the second device and I am trying to troubleshoot the issue..
Any advice?
Thanks in Advance !

Help me plizz
Try setting External GPS - in Start -Settings-System - to one of COM1,COM4 or COM8. Live Hardware at COM9,baud 4800 and Access thicked.Reset IGO8 to default settings and then try autodetect for GPS.
Depending on your ROM,one of this settings will work.Repeat for each COM setting to see wich on gives you faster GPS lock.
For the first time be patient with GPS lock -it could take 10-15 min.

Back-up your data first !

Set External GPS
Program : Com1
Hardware : Com9 , baud rate : 28800
Access : checked
Enhanced GPS
XTRA Enable : Enable
Restart and retry
If you set GPD1 in External GPS (Program)
Garmin MobileXT can access it but iGO8 can't, that's why

[20081012] Activesync Synchronizing through Bluetooth bug fix

I'm using my pda *only* with BT sync, a lot of BEAUTIFUL roms lack of this!
I've goggled about this and searched in registry to find the fix. I do not have much time to try this but may be only a trgistry fix, take a look at these links and compare 2 registry of 2 roms where on the 1 work.
I think the bug is in Bluetooth control panel applet which will not create registry entries in RasBook, and also in rom where Bt sync does not work there is no PPP via Bluetooth connection.
News:
20081012
- tested on a few roms the chanvi93 solution: this does not worked for me, nothing has changed, no "serial port" display on pairing bt device
20080928
- chanvi93 had posted a solution, I hope this will work, thank you!
--------------- OBSOLETE ------ look at chanvi93 post ----------------

I can confirm my last opinion: it's a XIP lack, no reg, no dll, no fix
because the XIP lack of "Bluetooth Device" extension.
Working 6.1 XIP are bundled here (tested):
- tnyynt 011
- karmba
- finixnover 3.6
Next weekend I will try to find XIP differences, thank you for wait
You can use RasTool.exe to see what ras devices have you got.
20080923
Done a lot of new test-mergin-building new roms, no good news:
- exchanging dll from a working rom to other via cab or ncb does not solve the bug
- merging registry does not solve the bug
* may be the XIP? may be the boot.rgu?
I have discovered what does not work on the wrong rom: it does not "have" the "Bluetooth Device" in RAS, this will abort creating the RasBook entry. If you can create via API the rasentry, this will NOT work! because the rom does not complain the Bluetooth gateway.
What can I do? I can say if we can find the fix, we will can build also a Activesync via TCP!! or vpn if you need. because it will be a rasentry, manually created.
What's next? I will try to make syncing using existing wifi connection.
20080922
I've done some test with and w/o BT sync... I've found interesting differences between 2 roms: Rasbook is not updated on w/O BT sync!
I've attached the missing registry entries, using this reg on the same pda but with the other rom is will "try" to popup the connection dialog... this may be a good starting point! because if I can understand how to write the right Rasbook entries I can write a program which fix this bad bug
--------------------- OBSOLETE end -----------------------------------
These are only my 2 cents, may be we can find the fix together
Tommorrow I will read some msdn documentation...
Good night people!
this will be very appreciated, THANK YOU for what you are doing, your topbar app is really wonderfull, i know that you'll solve this problem too
I was going to open a post too because with two roms I've tried (ervius and elegance) I can't activesync with bluetooth. I'm not so expert as you but what I've seen is this. With a device that can sync with bluetooth when the pda has found the pc with activesync it checks the serial port and see that there's AS on that port. You can clearly see it because the AS icon get green and start rotating. While with a pda that doesn't connect the pda only see that there's a serial port connection available but doesn't try to connect to it to check what's connected there so it doesn't find AS and can't give it as a service.
I tried all the different bluetooth stack (toshiba, widcomm, bluesoleil and microsoft) and spent a lot of time on that but found that the problem is rom related as you say.
If you have any idea on how th solve this issue I'd be glad to help.
Oh and I'm Italian too so if you want you can PM me in Italian!

Bluetooth system WM 6.1 for ActiveSync
I am a new cooker of French’s Rom and I saw many subjects treating the problem of ActiveSync by Bluetooth, I found recently a BT system of the build 19217 which has this function and I port it on 2 SYS: 20275 and 20755 ( in development with Home UI ++) and in my big surprise that works. You can add an other XIP , it work also .
BT system link : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OBH1TV0J
SYS 20275 040C (French) language :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=J76YTT20
You can try these 2 Roms before to cook if you want but its are in French language :
My Manila2D Rom with Xip 19971 and Sys 20275 : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZPYG4L4O
After the first reboot just install youtubeplayer.cab in the boot folder and active FtouchFlo in Démarrer_Programmes_Outils ; you have an full Manila2D Rom .
My recently Lite Rom with Xip + Sys 20755 : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K98KLYTA
For the others Rom users , i had created a small soft , install it in Main Memory ;
In last step of the sponsoring of the BT, type on "Advanced" then about " Serial port", a new page will open, click " Serial port" and "ActiveSync" then "OK".
Open Activsync and in menu choose in "Menu" Bluetooth connection ".
Excuse me for my poor English .
YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!!
I installed the cab you just placed here and now everything works fine and flawlessly!
I have no words to thank you!!!!
If you are a beginner cooker well I must admit you are really good!
Thanks again
ASync BT
I've tryed on 5.22222 Ervius Rom but it doesn't work. I don't see any com port in the menu "advanced" when i want to create a bt connection
After Pin code 0000 on PPc and PC , left softkey is :"Done" ; right softkey is : "Advanced" , click on advanced , on the next page click in the case "Serial Port" then "Save" , a new page will open and click on the case "Serial Port and "ActivSync" .
MMMMM unfortunately it did not worked for me. It displayed AS icon, but never connected.
I HAVE my previous computer BT pairing showing ActiveSync as an option (selected and working), I've had my actual computer with ActiveSync, ¡and Synced!
But suddenly ActiveSync dissapeared from my current laptop settings, and Active Sync option has neven been shown again, no way to link via Serial Port or the utility in this thread.
NO ACTIVE SYNC PROFILE EVER SHOWN AS AN OPTION. (without patch I mean)
Any idea on how to make it back AND WORK?

My BTTools work only if you have "serial port" pairing , no solution without it, the BT system of the Rom is incomplete.

Noted, Thanks.
BTW it "returned" after changing some settings in AS COM Ports without "serial" port pairing, but I'm unable to fully explain the thing. Just be sure your "Allow connecting one of the following: COM X" in your PC Active Sync connections Settings is set to COM 7
Hope it helps, a really confusing and not well documented issue.

How to auto connect to external BT-GPS

Hi every one,
I have paired an external BT GPS , and every time that i want to use it with TomTom or Oziexplorer, i have to manually connect to it as BT manager ask.
Any clue on doing this automatically as it was before in other devices with Broadcom stack?
Thanks.
Try to install "GPSGATE 2" ...
GPSGATE will create a virtual port that u can use with TT or Ozie.
for example : GPSGATE found my Royaltek (by Bluetooth) and do a virtual port com 4 (u can choose the number), after that, in tomtom or Ozie i choose my "gpsgate virtual" port 4 (i believe it's named "Franson" port) ...
...and that's all !
GPSGATE must be start with your device (see in options) ...

That is one of the things that i tried, but still asking if i want to connect it.
Thanks any away.
Strange...because, as i start TT, gpsgate look after my BT GPS and switch on automatically BT on TP2...and connect to GPS !
I do nothing, only start TT ...
I think that the difference between us is that mine is an Spanish rom.
Also i can't change the settings for external gps at wm settings page.
Perhaps it is a bug on Spanish rom, who knows.

hack IRDA for UART communication

( I post here because it a modification of the hardware)
Hi there
Has anyone tried to hack the IRDA module (desolder it) and interface with a PIC (or else) microcontroller in order to make the HTC send and receive data through COM port to the external microcontrollers.
Is there another available COM ports (hardware addressable UART) that I can use ?
my P3600 lists the COM ports :
COM1 Serial_IR ???
COM3 IRCOMM ???
COM5 ?
COM6 Serial ?????
COM7 SERIAL_BTUR (I use it to send data via BT SPP to other devices)
COM9 GPSChannel (to read GPS data)
Best regards
Lotfi
