Is this possible. Can i use the device as a GPS receiver via BT or USB on my Laptop ?

Hi,
Have a look at GPS2Blue. I guess this should do the trick but haven't tried it yet.

Here is what i did:
On your PDA
1. Go to BT settings on your device and make it discoverable.
2. Go to COM Ports Tab and create a new incoming port (mine is COM6)
In GPS2Blue
3. set your GPS to 4 (this is your internal GPS port ..see under Start --> Settings-->GPS)
4. enable BT on and set it to the COM you created in step 2.
5. Press Button ON
On your PC
6. Open your Bluetooth settings... i used Microsoft not Widcomm
7. Add a new Device
8. Choose your PDA
9. When this is done click properties on your device and go to the TAB services.
10. Now it will find a serial Port (SPP) 'Serial Port' COM 8 (in my case) enable it and press OK.
11. Now go to the TAB Com Ports and press button ADD. Choose your device and choose the Serial port.
Now you have connected COM port 8 on your PC to COM Port 6 on your device. The only thing you will have to do is choose COM Port 8 as your GPS port in your application.

Using the Orbit as a BT GPS reciever for Laptop
Hiya!
I was wondering the exact same thing last night and here is a topic covering it !! excellent !
I'm now going to be selling off my Xda Exec with Original TomTom bluetooth GPS reciever and putting the proceeds of that towards an Xda Orbit and I can still connect it to my laptop !
What is the GPS2Blue application for on the PDA? is it absolutley necessary to have in order to be able to use with a laptop? (I have a Dell with a built in Bluetooth module) I use Microsoft AutoRoute 2006 on my laptop sometimes,
Once I get the Orbit, I can recheck this thread and have a go at getting it connected
Cheers guys!
Dennis! West London UK!

Making your pda look like a BT GPS receiver is what GPS2BLUE is designed for.

Τhank you very match bro
Excellent tutorial..

Normally the GPS receiver only wakes up if an application accesses the COM port so you cant just flick the GPS on without a 3rd party program. Maybe a low level way, but still needs some effort to do it.

Hi,
Have tried to set this up but cant get it to work.
I have installed GPS2Blue and have set it up exactly as it says in your instructions, but everytime i press the "on" button it gets as far as saying "Bluetooh Port not connected, waitin" how long should i "wait" for it to connect??
Anyone kno why this is not working??
Also does anyone know how to set up the "PC" side of it on a Mac??
Regards
Chaz

woooo, lol. i got it sorted, well sort of newayz. The problem was my mac, for some reason it doesn't seam to be calling the gps on the port i set up. stupid thing, but tried it on windows, and it works perfectly now.
But still the million dollar question, can anybody get it working on Mac for me??

GPSgate is able to do the same.
redirects the vcom4 to com6 (BT outgoing) and its redy to comunicate with BT on PC...
Other oportunity is to use Portsplit & GPSproxy. The same function.
In other words - nothinq new under the sun...

Using 3300/artemis as GPS receiver for a laptop
Hi,
I now have my Orbit and it's running TomTom 6 nicely using a 1GB Sandisk 'normal' speed micro SD card.
Now if I install GPS blue and use the instructions given earlier in this thread, could I for instance be on a journey and have TomTom 6 running using the internal GPS reciever AND have the Bluetooth connection to my Laptop providing the GPS signal and it being used on Microsoft AutoRoute 2006 at the 'same time'? - or would they have to be exclusive to each other?
I'm also guessing that the 3300/artemis will be able to connect say to a XDA2s machine to 'act' as the BT GPS reciever for TT5 on that PDA right?!

Cannot create Bluetooth COM ports!?

Hi everyone!
I need to create a Bluetooth COM port on my Artemis (PV B&B v3 ROM, which is WM6)
I did this in WM5:
Theres the Bluetooth Settings.
A Tab named "COM ports" (or so)
In that tab theres a list box with every active COM port and one entry "create new incoming/outgoing port".
So when no ports are set up, there are only those 2 items. one to create new imcoming port and one to create new outgoing port.
well... since flashing to WM6 these 2 items are gone... and i cannot create ports!
There is even explaining text above the list box that tells me to tap on "create new com port" to create a new COM port.
Thats funny isn't it?
Like a sign that would say: "Push the Button below to get what you desire" and then theres no button below
So whats wrong here?
Maybe anyone with the PV Black&Blue v3 ROM could try this?
Just go to Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Bluetooth -> "COM ports"-Tab
thxalot!

I was about to ask the same question. I'm using Black Majik.

those 2 entries are not in b&b v3 as far as I can tell

So i'm not the only one with that problem...
Maybe we can try to set up COM ports with a different Bluetooth config software than the WM6 default one?
is there any free available Bluetooth manager?

so here is how it looked in WM5:
I got 2 items to create new ports.

Has to be a bug!!!
Or is it a driver problem? Maybe That BT driver does not support COM ports?
This is really annoying!

...however...I am able to pair my pc and pda and activesync with bt

do you use windows vista?
as far as i know you have to create com ports to use activesync with windows xp.
activesync on windows vista works fine for me without com ports too.
but there are many services that reqire com ports, such as a GPS tunnel to use artemis as a GPS receiver for windows.

So guys, I'm on holiday for a while No posts from me for now! cya!

I gave you time to think about it my whole holidays and you got nothing?
what do you think? bug or not?

i had the same problem... i updated my bluetooth driver on my PC (dont use the one included in Windows XP SP2) and paired my device again.. now i can create com ports....
after installing the official software for your bluetooth stick... you have to manualy change the driver from the windows integrated to the installed...

I'm talking about the BT on my Artemis...
I can create COM ports in Windows XP and Vista, but not on WM6 B&B3

Click to expand...

yes i understand... exactly the same happened to me.... wit updated bluetooth drivers on WinXP it worked..... try it

This has nothing to do with windows XP!
I just want to create a COM port on my device. without connecting to any pc

if you believe me or not... it has something to do with WinXP.... i dont know why...... try it and report back....
i promise you it worked for me.... ask tom codon... i chated with him long about the problem.. and thats my solution... so ... believe it or not.... i only wanted to help... but if you dont want to try it out... its your problem.

I'm also trying to do this but to no avail, its rediculous that the options aren't there and why would it be an XP problem and if it is what about us Vista users! The bluetooth on WM6 is terrible, I can make it connect to my bluetooth headset for calls but the stereo headset function wont work at all it just plays music out of the phones speaker.

So what if i have no PC with Bluetooth at home?
it's just unlogical for me to fix a problem with my phone on my pc!
why should wm6 even know what i'm doing with my PC's bluetooth drivers. this just cant be the right solution
aslso my windows bt works just fine and i dont want other drivers or something

I think I've figured it out....
You need to pair a device with your phone (preferably a pc running activesync) as with no device paired I haven't got the option to create a new port in the 'com ports' tab. Once the machine is paired to a device which supports Serial com port profile (pretty much everything does) you should have the option to create a new outgoing port. I don't know how to get the option to create a new incoming port (apparently this option isn't needed as everything can connect to it anyway) and unfortunately it seems to be restricted to the machine which you've paired it to.

no this doesn't work for me...
I created a incoming port on Windows Vista, paired that device.
The COM Service is not listed on my Artemis.
(Headset and A2DP are though)
In windows Vista there are also ActiveSync and Obex ObjectPush
In Windows XP there are no services (from both sides).
Still not able to create COM ports

w00t!
just set up ActiveSync on Windows XP (over COM)
and i got the "new outgoing port" item!
still no incoming one

sounds logical now excuse me for talking sh*t
If i have no opened COM ports on my Artemis, I cannot create incoming ports.
If I have no BT device with COM ports paired, I cannot create outgoing ports.
Since I opened the COM port an Windows XP (for ActiveSync) i can create the outgoing port for that device.
I think I understand now
So now lets see If i can get GPS2Blue running

Bluetooth GPS with ELF?

Hi, has anyone tried using bluetooth GPS device with ELF? if so, please let me know how it went and which bluetooth device and software were used.
Cheers

Uses Nokia battery's Great when you have an old phone lying around Has good stanby and in-use time.
- edit:
All went very smooth, no hickups no failures. Works like it was intended Once paired, just turn on bluetooth on Touch, and turn reciever on. The rest is automatic Software such as TomTom automaticaly turn on bluetooth when a non-default reciever is configured. Just start TomTom and turn reviever on.
Used this reciever for about 2,5 years now. Never let me down.

I use one Globalsat BT-338 with the HTC Touch nicely. Just pair it once and BINGO...
By the way I use Destinator 6.11 with Brazilian maps and GoogleMaps Mobile connected to the GPS.

i use the original tomtom GPS2 receiver with tomtom navigator 6.030..
it works well, but the GPS Receiver needs a little while until he get the positions

I'm using a Globalsat BT-359 with iGO 2006.
Works fine, Position fix in about 1 minute (and sometime less). Bluetooth link easy to setup.

Useing Holux GR236 with TomTom 6 works fine and after connecting the GPS once TomTom automatically enables Bluetooth on startup!

i use the NOKIA LD-3W ...works smoothly...
i suppose every BT GPS Receiver works with the Touch... when u buy one, maybe pay attention that it has a SIRF III Chip

I use a Q-Starz BT-Q810 with TomTom6. works fine and doesn't have a SIRF III chip (uses MTK instead)

What are you guys using to secure the touch to your car? I haven't found anything elf-specific.

i use the Qtrek blue gps s3 , 20 channels, it works with all navigation software on the touch, it costs about 65 euro`s here in holland.

TomTom Western Europe on my touch with Holux GPSlim (GR-236) SiRFStarIII Bluetooth Receiver
now to get it ( the GPSlim ) to work with Google maps.

hi guys,
i bought my touch 3 weeks ago and i'm VERY interested in using it as a nav. with tomtom6 western europe.
i've got 2 questions coming up:
1: which bluetooth receiver can you recommend me (at a reasonable price)?!
2: i was wondering if you guys manage it with your storage card (because i'm one of those who are trying to download the maps (and everything else)
my point is, unfortunatly i've got 2 storage cards (each 1gb), one i'm using for daily life, the other card i would use for tomtom6!
is it possible to install tt6 on my storage card where the maps are located?!
thanks for helping me...
Andi

I used TT6 with GPS device AD750 from Adept on my wizard for +/1 one year, and since +/- 2 weeks with the ELF now, it works flawless.

Yes, but when you install TT6 and choose the storage card as install location, it still installs TT6 on the phone memory.
However, if i manually transfer the "navigator" folder from the "program files" folder (phone memory) to the "program files" folder (storage card) it still runs perfectly (you do have to create a new shortcut in the "\windows\start menu" of course).

This video is very good when you need to make the GPS and the Touch "Talk together"

SIRF chip can receive more channels than the Nemerix chip but power consumption is higher, ie you will need the recharge more often

I run TT6 from 1GB storage card with no problems. Just copy the map folders to the root directory of the storage card.

My girl uses a Adapt A800 Sirfstar III with TomTom.
Works great, fast fix

Wifi & Bluetooth Fail

After playing for a while the wifi just turns off and so does Bluetooth. I cannot turn it back on (especially wifi as the selector is greyed out) Bluetooth is selectable but turns off within a second of turning on. This is the second time I'm having this issue. I've tried clearing cache. I'm on stock Android 4.3 JSS15R. The only thing I haven't tried is a factory reset. Anyone else with this issue ? Need help.

Update 1: Factory Reset did not help. Still no wifi !
Update 2: After the factory reset my Wifi doesn't work and i cannot get past the welcome screen (which needs wifi connectivity). Great work *Google* [email protected]#[email protected]$
Any ideas ppl ? coz i', sh*t out of 'em.

Interesting... I have a similar experience but my WiFi doesn't turn off - I just lose the ability to transmit/receive data.
When I first heard that the Nexus 7 2013 could use a bluetooth keyboard AND mouse I jumped on purchasing the device. Of course, once both were connected, bluetooth lagged out and repeated keys and the mouse lagged - but if I used ONE bluetooth device it wasn't a problem. However, when I went home to my 5Ghz router, I could connect bluetooth headphones, keyboard, mouse, AND surf the web without a problem.
So it looks like Bluetooth and WiFi share the 2.4Ghz antennae? I haven't had my WiFi shut off but I've had issues if I connect more than one bluetooth device to my Nexus 7 while connected to a 2.4Ghz network. I can have 1 device connected just fine (usually bluetooth headphones).

I'm actually not sure whether to get a replacement or wait for a fix ?! It's basically as good as bricked 'coz im stuck at the welcome screen and no way to even test the hardware.
One thing i had noticed however was the mac address was "unavailable". So does that mean the hardware has failed ? or the OS is broken ?

Wow that's terrible - as soon as I stop the multiple bluetooth device interference, my wifi comes back. Not being able to see the mac address seems like a hardware problem to me too. If I were you, I'd wait to see if anyone else replies to this forum, and if no one responds by end of work today, I'd take your device into the store - show them what it is doing and get a replacement.

Update 1: I was so frustrated that I used the nexus 7 toolkit and unlocked the boot loader and reinstalled the entire JSS15R (stock rom). It still didn't work.
All of a sudden Wifi appears and all works well. I'm seriously confused. I'm still gonna get a replacement.
Update 2: After setting up my accounts Wifi and Bluetooth dead again.

now fill in the miss part, mainly the "Service", and HID part which you can omit some of them, and never change those key nor add any missing key. For service most of them will be "00001812-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb "
It is suggest to copy these info from another device, I copy them from my HTC 10
beware of the order of those line, wrong order may will refuse to work
suggest to use some text editor support unix format (LF for new line) such as pspad
4. after modify push back to shield tv, reboot (I didn't try if turning on/off bt will work or not)

for china version of xiaomi box bt remote, 1st version bt remote which use CR2032 will need repairing after reboot and also will disconnect after about 1 day, but it can pair by shield tv, it will say cannot pair for 1st try, just don't touch the remote and let shield pair it again, it will pair mostly in 2~3 try
2nd version of this bt remote without voice (just $4 usd) , which us 2xaaa battery can be pair using the above method, sheild tv cannot search for it, it will not disconnect after shield tv reboot/power off, I am still testing it, hope it will not disconnect after a few hours of using.
Tmall bt voice remote same as xiaomi 1st version bt remote, and the power button is IR, voice will not work

Edit
Sorry, rereading your post, i see were not discussing the same issue, my apologies
Edit2
Although you may have giving me some places i could look into, like the config file locations, reviewing them before pairing, after pairing, and after loss of pairing, so thanks for that
Im having this similar issue on marshmellow full android
Im having no problems with seing and pairing devices, but the shield forgets the pairing when i turn off, then turn on the bluetooth, making me have to repair again, which when you have so many devices to pair becomes a pain.
Ive not tested extensively, but the pairing seems to stick, at least in the first instance of turning bluetooth on and off, as long as the bluetooth device was connected when i turn off the bluetooth
I can test this a bit more, like pair more then one device(ive only been pairing/testing one device at a time), keep one device connected, turn off the bluetooth, and see if the shield remembers all the pairings, or just the one that was still connected, when i turned off the bluetooth
I do hope a solution becomes available, as i rely quite extensively on the shields bluetooth
Researching up on it, seems theres a little issue with marshmallow and bluetoth but not this exact problem, so im stumped, this post, and another on zulus marshmellow thread are the only places ive seen mention of this particular pairing problem, the forgetting your pairings issue

'hi zulu,
I was wondering why everytime I turn on the shield from a shutdown. I'd always have to pair my bluetooth devices. For some reason it doesnt remember the already paired devices. Thanks'

Your problem actually the same as some of my bt device and I don't have a solution, it may be a mix of the bt device firmware problem and the Shield bt, every time it happen I saw a GATT disconnect then device refuse to connect again. What I know is some of my device is fixed after a firmware update(the bt device).
Edit:
Saw some similar bug on nexus, may be they are related, need time to keep digging

Dont know if this will be any help in your search, but theres a floating/popup/overlay logcat on the playstore called 'logcat extreme' that might be usefull, maybe give you some clues you may understand better then me.
I tend to pause the log, clear it, then unpause right before an action, in this case
1. Turning on bluetooth(with nothing paired) (pause, then save log)
2. Clear log, unpause, pair device, pause, save log
3. Clear log, unpause, turn off bluetooth, pause, save log
4. Clear log, unpause, turn on bluetooth(testing the pairing), pause, save log
Ill probably go over this again more thoroughly if more information comes out that helps me look out for something specific, perhaps this "GATT disconnect " that you speak off
The fact that this issue is happening on the nexus, as you say, seems to indicate that this is an issue with android itself, so im hoping, once xposed comes out for nouget, that this issue will be resolved when i update, which will be fun, seing as my adb/fastboot is not working........hoping flashfire app will do the job in this case, aswell as, hopefully, fix the adb/fastboot, but i digress
Edit
I have a very strong feeling that im gonna turn my device into a door stop when i eventually test/hope/hail mary with flashfire, a new shield purchase may be in my future just hope their still selling the 2015 model when/if i do

Thanks for the app, really helpful. Beside logcat you can also take a look of HCI bluetooth snoop.
a little bit off topic:
When try to stop the shield being discoverable I found that even it stop being discoverable by default bt_addr it will become discoverable by a different bt_addr if you scan for it long enough (about 1~3mins), and there are at least two different bt_addr.
you can try yourself by change the scan mode in bt_config.conf, there also an app call bluetooth settings (by4a.bluetoothsettings) can do that for you, just need to restart after install that app or the setting may not stick

Notes
I tested with another device, bluetooth mouse(which i believed to have a higher bluetooth version then the bluetooth keyboard version i was testing previously), ive been making an assumption, that under bluetooths settings "paired devices", if it comes up empty, then the pairing/s was/were forgotten, but clicking on the bluetooth mouse buttons, to auto connect, brought up a "enter pin popup"(shows up everytime i connect, so its not "fixed"), which connects ok after entering pin, so the pairing was still there, just not showing up in bluetooth settings
So at least i know its not deleted of the system
Search goes on
Edit
Bluetooth keyboard still cant auto connect(needs repairing), unlike the bluetooth mouse(which needs the pin entered every auto connect, which was not previous behaviour)
Although mouse works, the bluetooth "paired devices" sections is still empty, untill i press buttons on the mouse to auto connect
Hopefully someone finds this usefull, i sure hope im not jacking your thread dummyplug

Enter pin is actually an old pairing method before bt auto pairing. Anyway seems the bluetooth is quite buggy on shield, let hope it will be better for future firmware.

Yeah, thats what im counting on when i have the opportunity to upgrade to nouget, hopefully the stock OTA download/OTA flash method works and fixes bluetooth and all my other various issues.
Also, for informations sake, i dont remember that particular bluetooth mouse of mine needing to enter a pin before i started having bluetooth issues, come to think of it, i realise the the initial pairing of my mouse auto pairs still, only after every auto connect does the pin show up
Ive encountered the blutooth/pin code popup many'ya times in the past and, well, quite recently i guess, i had assumed, that it was based on the bluetooth device you were pairing that dictated whether a popup pin would occur, and not so much android, different bluetooth peripherals having different bluetooth versions, some having or not having support for any particular bluetooth authorisation method introduced in higher/lower bluetooth standards.
Maybe part of the problem for me specifically is that my shield is not able to identify/communicate correctly with my devices
Its like you said, buggy ......and weird.......heres to hoping the ota fixes it

So does this remote - http://www.gearbest.com/smart-home-controls/pp_257680.html stay paired after reboot using this method?

I use the older one which don't have voice and take 2*aaa battery, beware the firmware may different, I had 4 of them and out of 2 behave a little bit different but still stay pair after reboot and don't affect usage

I have this exact remote and It has never even worked for me, does not make a beeping sound and pressing home + back any ideas why this remote wouldnt turn on at all?

As I know only the old one will beep, and it should be "home + menu"
my 1st xiaomi remote which using cr2032 will not work very well with shield, may be mine got a outdate firmware
