Hi y'all,
i have a BT GPS receiver that i used with my Qtek 2020 (before this was stolen... ).
Now i have a XDA Exec from O2, but i am not able to set the receiver!
Anyone has any tip for me?
Thanks a lot...
...no one can help me out...??? Please...
Check out this guide and follow from after installing tomtom and you should get BT GPS working with exec, I did!!!
ps search term used was 'tomtom 5.1 guide'
hope this helps!

Hello,
first the bad news: not every bt-reciever is working...
but you should try this way:
Connection-Manager
Enable BT
Setting (Connection-Manager) BT-Settings
Tab devices and ad new partnership (be sure, BT-Reciever is on)
Pair it with your Universal (pin is usuall 0000)
Tap Com-Ports: new outgoing Port (your BT-Reciever) set to com 4
Tap Com-Ports: new incomming port (your BT-Reciever) set to com 8
Now it should work!
Thanks for the tipo...now i don't have my GPS receiver with me...but tomorrow i will give it a try.
The only thing that i find strange is: when i try to set the outgoing port i find my BT receiver in a box, but when i try to set the incoming port i dont' find it anywhere.
Something wrong?
Oh...and also...i use the software "GPS View" for the connection with the BT receiver...which port should i open (the COM4, the COM8 or another one?).
I ask you this because i have 10 COM ports available (from 1 to 10), but i cannot open all of them, because some tell me "COM porte error" when i try to open it.
Thanks for your help...
can anyone confirm if haicom-405 bt works with dopod 900?

As I wrote before:
Tap Com-Ports: new outgoing Port (your BT-Reciever) set to com 4
Tap Com-Ports: new incomming port (your BT-Reciever) set to com 8

I follow the tips ...outgoing port (COM4 - which the only port can be used other failed to open), incoming port (COM8).
But it doesnt work with my Garmin10 .... which work well with my previous XDAIIs. Anyone use Garmin1o with Dopo900?
Thanks
Usually, there's no need to setup an ingoing COM port: my Holux 236 receiver, for instance, works perfectly paired with my Qtek 9000 and only the outgoing COM8 setup'd.
The only thing to pay attention for is that TomTom have to be v5.1 or above (better if v5.21), in order to work properly under Windows Mobile 5.0.
Well...in my previous XDAII worked perfectly using the software MAPSONIC and the GPS VIEWER with my BT receiver (and just setting the outgoing port).
I tried to do like Teja told me in his answer (setting the outgoing COM4 and the incoming COM8), but it still does not work.
I will try to get a TOMTOM 5.1 software to give it a try...
solved...and i don't need to setup the ingoing port...thanks for the tips
Hi there! I have MDA Pro from T-mobile (UK) and until now I couldn't set a COM port appart of COM0 port for BT-GPS...
Now have COM4 for outgoing port and tom tom once is connected after 5 seconds is disconnected and again after 5 seconds is connected and again is disconnected and again......
I am using TT 5.21
Help please
I have set the outgoing port on COM8, no ingoing port needed and it works fine...although i don't have TOMTOM!!!
Orange M5000 and BT GPS and TOMTOM 5.21
I thought I share this just in case there are other like me out there.
I had an Orange M2000 with tomtom 5.0 and 512MB SD card.
I installed TT5 as normal on the PDA but the maps on the 512MB SD card.
I just got an Orange M5000 which is XDA EXEC and could not install TOMTOM 5.0 from CD. The SETUP kept on crashing on XP PC.
Here is the solution:
1) Put the SD card with the maps in M5000
2) Did NOT install TT5 from CD but downloaded navupd521.exe from the tomtom site and installed this on M5000 fine.
NOTE: I did not have to copy CAB files. I just installed this as normal from my PC with the USB cable
3) TT installed fine but I could not get it to recognise the BT GPS
I used the instructions below from the forum:
a) Turn on BT GPS
b) on PDA goto BlueTooth seeting --> New Partnership and supply the password (0000) to pair it.
c) Then in Bluetooth settings select the COM PORTS tab
d) Select Incoming port and set to COM8
e) and again in COM PORTS tab select Outgoing ports and select COM4
f) Start TOMTOM and goto Preferences and find GPS Configuration and select OTHER GPS and select COM4
It works every time... ALL my FAvourites etc are still there so no need to type them again.
So far WM5 and TT5 rocks. I will be testing it on the road with my Plantronics BT headset soon. With my old M2000, usually when TT5 is on the M2000 CPU does not have the juice and Bluetooth devices die or stop responding. Also when I stopped TT5 application the BlueTooth stopped.
We will see how M5000 improves on M2000
Thax...
i believe you shouldnt have a problem running your headset and bluetooth GPS together.
when i had a blue angel i ran TT3 with my SonyErricson Car Kit and the TT3 together and made vioce calls at the same time and even now with the Universal i can do the same! run them both together!
only thing is that occasionaly the TT5 seems to be a little behind my actual location if i have made/received a call luckily by only 30-40 yards so can still use the screen to see where my turnings are.
has anyone else found that and got the cure....
thanks
help me
I have a Imate Jas-Jar windows mobile 2005. A new version of GPS Nav-N-Go was released for WM 2005 I installed it and it doesn't work! It doesn't recognize my GPS on the Parrot CK3300.
I talked with the Nav-N-Go developers and they told me that the Nav-N-Go works with 9 GPS antenna's. It seems to me that the problem is in the definition of a communication "COM port".
Please help me to solve this problem. Is there a way to define a "COM port" for GPS in the CK3300

JasJar & TomTom5 using a Parrot 3300 for GPS & Phone
I also have a Jas Jar badged as an Orange SPVM5000 and have similar problems. I am not a techie by any meands but I do not think the problem is with the Parrot 3300.
The Bluetooth pairing connects Parrot and Phone.
Setting the com port is identifying where the incoming gps signal is made of available on the phone.
TomTom5 is the sat nav software I use and it seems only to work by connecting to certain com ports. Unfortunatley, the phone does not like assigning the connection to this port.
Elsewhere on this site there are instructions which allowed me to pair the phone with another GPS BT reciever I use when out and about.
The same procedure will not work with pasiring the parrot.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can pair with the Parrot to get the phone and gps working?
You may find some answers here -- worth a try, anyway.

Hi!
Is there a way to use the GPS receiver that is built into the Artemis as a GPS Device for Windows (XP or Vista).
Maybe over Bluetooth or USB / ActiveSync connection.
I tried to set up Bluetooth COM Ports so Incoming BT connections connect directly to the GPS COM port, but without success... no gps data was coming through.
Also I search for a small tool to test the receiver... just a compass or something.
regards,
Daniel
You cannot just "bridge" the GPS com port to your desktop OS via BT. The BT stack was never designed that way. All BT com ports you use must have a piece of software behind it to fill it with data, or otherwise they are just empty cans.
In your case, you need a GPS splitter to get gps signals from the GPS com port, and then repeat it to a BT com port so that the other end can receive such signal. That will provide a working bridge for your data.
Try software such as gpsgate that works as described above.
Hello, you can try GPS2Blue is a little free program that will let you use your Artemis as a GPS.
You can find it here: http://users.skynet.be/hofinger/GPS2Blue.html
Enjoy.
i got myself GPS2Blue and installed it.
My problem now is, that i cannot set up a BT COM port!
I have the (german) B&Bv3 ROM (WM6). In Bluetooth Settings in the "COM Ports"-Tab. It says "Tap on 'New outgoing port' ..." but theres no button or something. Just the describing text and an empty ListBox.
since I cannot set up my COM port, GPS2Blue won't swich on right?
So... is this a WM6 bug or a B&B Bug or my brain-bug
Setting up COM ports in my firmware WM5 OS worked just fine.
Thanks you guys for the info!
but what to do now?
GPSgate can do what you want (but it is not free)
gpsgate can set up bluetooth com ports? i dont think so
this is not a gps problem anymore!
i posted a new thread for my new problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315687
GPSGate can do it!!
Use this is the registration key:AmzeaBjw
Then your Artemis can pass GPS information to your PC through Bluetooth
Fransons GPS Gate will enable the sharing of GPS position to a number of different types of device, I am not too sure about posting a registration key for purchased software as these are specific to an individual user??? - Mike
Hello,
for hours I have been trying to get ActiveSync to work with my Hermes (XDA Trion). Interestingly, everything worked fine with Schaps older ROM 3.54.
Actually, the problem can be split into two seperate problems:
1. When I try to pair my Hermes with my Notebook (MSI dongle with Bluesoleil 2.3) and I search for new devices, it discovers it. After I enter a passkey on the PPC a window pops open on the notebook. I punch in the same exact number as before but my PPC just stalls with the "hour clock" running. Sometimes I get a time out error after waiting about 5 minutes. If I don't enter a passkey I can pair the devices with no problem.
2. Once I have paired both devices (with no passkey) I can manage to refresh the offered services to ActiveSync. Nevertheless, I still get an error message that there is no existing Bluetooth partnership with a PC with ActiveSync support. Thus, I'm still not able to sync via bluetooth
If you have a solution, let me know!
Thanks!

same HW no issues
I happen to have both the Hermes with Schap's 4.31 WWE Lite AND the MSI Bluesoleil BT 2.0 dongle as well, and bluetooth Activestink is no issue on my end. Works perfectly.
using 4.31 lite as well.. no issues with rgd to bluetooth connections with my HP tablet TC1100 (XP Pro Tablet Edition 2005)..
Hello!
I have a car GPS Navigator which has a feature to pair with a mobile phone or PDA via bluetooth to use it as handsfree, view contacts, make calls from GPS screen ans so on. Both devices can see each other via bluetooth but the problem is that they can't pair. My BA has WM6.1 installed, I haven't any problems with bluetooth yet. May be BA does't support this functionality or it does'n have appropriate Bluetooth Profile ?
May be it would be useful to someone with similar issue. My bluetooth problem has been resolved just by installing WM6.5 ROM ! I've tried almost all versions of WM6.5 located on xda-developers and every one has the bt stack much better than WM6.1 has.
