Bluetooth Explorer creates PROBLEMS for TomTom!!!

Indeed clicking as much as one time on "Bluetooth Explorer" will cause TomTom not to function properly any more (maps/voices not found etc.).
I have learnt that the hard way!!!
Many members of this forum speculated that the Artemis SD card housing is somehow related to TT's maps to vanish.... NOT TRUE!!!
After a hard reset I have tested that TT was fully functional and I have (intentionally... just to find out) clicked on Bluetooth Explorer and BINGO the TT6.1 maps&voices are GONE!!!
If some of the forum experts would happen to read this and would feel like giving instructions to disable Bluetooth Explorer it would be very helpful.... this will surely avoid SEVERAL hard resets to many people.
I have read that one should go to Settings/Connections then select the FTP tab and uncheck "Enable Bluetooth Explorer" but this is not to be found on my ARTEMIS (P3300)... Let's see if somebody will find a moment to share his/her wisdom with the rookies and shed some lights on this annoying problem.
Cheers!

On my Orbit you do the following to disable the Bluetooth Explorer
Settings / Connections / Bluetooth / FTP (tab)
Then select or de-select Bluetooth Explorer.

I appreciate your kind reply Patrick but as you can read in my thread this path (Settings / Connections / Bluetooth / FTP (tab)) is not available in the Artemis/HTC P3300.... Anybody else?

Do you have a comms manager? If so you can access the ftp option of the bluetooth settings from here.
TomTom and Bluetooth explorer both work on my xda orbit.

herghost, what version of TomTom are you running?
I m unable to have Bluetooth Explorer enabled on my Orbit, and get TomTom to find the maps. I am running ver 6.02

perfect, i wasnt able to make tomtom recognize maps on orbit(on universal it works w/o probs) i switched bt expl. off and it works. thx

Guys, there is no doubt. TT (mine is version 6.1) and BT Explorer are NOT going to work together! I am glad to hear that phsnake could get his orbit to resume TT functions.... And (also) I found out that my old rom (the one originally shipped with the P3300) had the path (Settings / Connections / Bluetooth / FTP) to disable BT Explorer (as Patrick_UK explained) ... but the one I am using now does not offer the chance to enable/disable BTE.... any registry master would be kind enough to offer his/her expertise to make this possible? I am not so keen on editing the REG unless I know exactly what has to be done
rom 1.28.0.0 wwe
rom date 11-06-06
radio 02.69.90
protocol 4.1.13.30
ext. rom PDAMobiz.com

SiperX:I'll try today to find reg solution, i cannot promise anything, but i'll do reg export with btexpl. switched on, then with switched off and compare reg.files. hopefully i'll find the right one key.

Phsnake, this sounds like a great idea! Thanks in advance!!! I really hope that you can succeed and give me support in this matter.
By the way where did you find the rom (ROM: DOPOD IPL: 1.25.0001 SPL:1.27.0000 GSM: 2.69.90 OS:1.28.0.0 WWE) you are running now? It sounds lke the right one for my T-Mobile Artemis.

so i compared the regs and diff follows:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BluetoothFolder]
"EnableClient"=dword:00000001
"HDEVICE"=dword:00031380
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active\68]
"ClientInfo"=dword:00000000
"Hnd"=dword:00031380
"Key"="Drivers\\BlockDevice\\BTDisk"
"Name"="BTD1:"
i guess all U need 2 do is change "EnableClient" from 1 to 0. try it and let us know. (i can disable it thru bt settings). or remove above posted reg entries.
ROM:its standard dopod shipped(the latest one) should be on wm-gurus.com

Thanks man! The registry editing you suggested worked and the BT Expl. is now OFF and TT finds the maps again!!!
But the option to enable/disable the BT Expl. (via BT settings as you say) is still not available any chance you could send me a screenshot of your reg for both [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BluetoothFolder] and [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active\68]?
For your Dopod rom, could you please give me a precise link where I can download it? I could not find it at wm-gurus.com.
Thanks a lot

ftp.wm-gurus.com/Artemis/Shipped_Complete_Updates/ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe
yes i know that wont allow u to switch off btexpl. thru bt control panel.
Here are regentries U requested, but i dont think it'll help. but try.

Thanks again!
BTW, the same file (ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe) was available at XDA too.... I have tested it a few weeks ago it and -being an AU (Australian rom) my sim (Dutch T-Mobile) did not get registered as the operator is apparently not quoted .... strange that you can use it in Scotland.
For regs I will see what I manage to put together and will let you know... Great (and prompt) support was very appreciated...

Hi again,
I have flashed once more the ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe onto my Artemis and I have (FINALLY) noticed that the SIM does register and I am able to use the phone (incoming & outgoing calls).
The only problem is that every time I reboot I get a notification from the "NETWORK WIZARD" which says "your current operator (20416) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor".... Any idea how I can get this nag off my back?
Thanks

try to check \windows\startup

I have deleted (& made a copy for backup) these 5 files:
netwiz.cpl
netwiz.dat
netwiz.exe
netwiz.exe.0404.mui
netwiz.ini
from the Windows folder of my Artemis.
After rebooting the Network Wizard notification does NO LONGER pops up!!!! So I would say "Problem solved", right?
I am glad that -thanks to the recent communications we exchanged- you "inspired" me to give one more try to the Dopod rom and I finally seem to have found what I wanted.
Only one final point: In other roms if you click on the phone signal bar you get the option to turn on/off the flight mode and if you click on the icon on the right of the phone signal bar you culd turn on/off the WiFi... in this rom you get a small (blue) Comm Manager link to follow in order to enable/disable these functions.... did you find any faster ways to activate WiFi or Flight mode? May be they can be added to the voice commands?
Cheers

u can use phonealarm-some skins supports one click wifi, gprs,btooth switch,

I saw phonealarm but I have decided to spend the end of the weekend configuring my newly installed rom (immediately after I will make a Sprite backup) and along the way try to think of something to keep to a minimum the amount of additional SW installed. What do you think if I use "tray launch", would that allow me to make the necessary shortcuts?
By the way (with previous roms) I kept my Artemis overclocked at 240 Mhz and it was pretty stable, did you test any higher frequency on the Dopod rom?

Possible to setup any ROMs to run TOMTOM only once turned on???

Just like the title asks, is there any way to setup any roms to just run TOMTOM automatically from startup?
Have a spare Hermes and the girlfriend would like to just run TOMTOM on it from startup (a fitting way to recycle the old phone).
Thank you for any and all answers

No need for a ROM to do this. Simply take teh Tomtom.lnk shortcut, and make a copy in windows>start up.

I ran into an issue with this as a shortcut, and I also found out that since the phone is now used as a GPS the phone can not be in airplane mode. The radio must be turned on... still a nice way to recycle the phone.
Cheers

Don't use airplane mode. You can turn the phone's cellular radio off by going to the comm. manager. If you're using an external bluetooth dongle, just keep the phone's bluetooth on in discover mode. Shouldn't be too difficult to get the phone to startup TomTom at boot and automatically link up with your GPS.
Cheers

Quick way to turn off wifi?

Has anyone got any good idea for setting up a quickly-accessible shortcut for turning the wifi connection on or off?

There's CommManager button on the keyboard that leed you to WiFi and other connections. I'm on the SPB Mobile Shell3. Try it and you find out that there can be everything you imagine on the screen. So have Wireless Manager right in fron of me.
Dan

Thanks - I hadn't noticed that.
Interesting that you're choosing to use SPB Mobile Shell 3 instead of TouchFlo - I was thinking of doing the same myself.

TF3D is definitely not bad and this last release is good. But MS3 is awesome, using this already since times of Kaiser. There is much more freedom and operativness with MS3. Worth of trying at least...

Have set long press on the "phone" key to Comms Manager, then you can twiddle wi-fi to your heart's content!

This program works great just one click on or off

This is one of the issues that I'd like to solve as well. One of the great capabilities of Nokia Symbian OS is that you can directly press on a bookmark for example and it will pop up a menu asking you to choose the way you want to connect (GPRS, WIFI access point, WAP, ...)
You just choose from it and there you go! Once you close the browser or the application that requires the internet connection it automatically stops wifi!
I find this setup great and it makes things much easier. Any way we can have such a setup on our beloved TP2?

I have installed smaberg's action screen:

That's affirmative!
The util, a great util by the way, is written for the Xperia, which has a WM bluetooth stack.
The Rhodium has a WidComm BT stack, so that's the only part that won't work.

today plugin bluetooth toggler

Hi,
I am look ing for a SIMPLE today plugin to fast switch on/off BT. I have tried a dozen but none of them seem to work. Strange. I used to have a HTC Universal (WM 6.1.) and there the BatteryStatus (name of the program) worked like a charm (even the last version homescreen_plusplus doesn't work on the rhodium) I tried exe versions (like BtOnOff.exe)and cabs (like BlueTogglerSetup). So I am starting to think I am missing sth. Anybody a suggestion?
Oh yeah, the indicators do switch on of these plugins (when i switch on BT trough settings-connections) so they detect the state of BT but are not able to switching on them selfs?
Help welcome!
thx in advance

(damn, i am missing my solid universal!)

Read the very first post in this forum! The very first paragraph. The search function works well ;-)
Pro2 use a different bluetooth stack than all previous models. Currently I have not seen other BT toggles that is working, but I expect they will come later.
I have CommManager assigned to the send button, so it is no big issue for me.
The biggest issue is, that the BT headset controls are hardcoded to WMP/HTCPlayer, so I can not use my favorite mediaplayer.

thx
thx, yeah I searched and read about the BT problems.
I just wanted to check in to see if there was sth new going on this front.
I hope you didn't mind too much.
In the mean time I assigned comm manager to a soft key in combination with 2 today screens it is feasable, but definitely not sth I want as a final result.
greetz,

Auto turn on/off, WiFi & BT on External Power?

Hi folks, is there a program or a method of setting the TP2 to automatically Turn ON/OFF Bluetooth & or WiFi When external power is connected / disconnected?
Apologies if this has already been covered and I have missed it in the search. I know there is software available for the Diamond but is there anything specific to the TP2? Thanks

I could probably whip that up for you, but if it's available for the Diamond, why not use that?

This has all the tweaking tools you will ever need!

g-profile should work and i think it's free
http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=gprofile/about

Have you tried the requestet function with the linked programs? Because TP2 has another Bluetooth-stack than older phones. My SPB PhoneSuite can't turn on Bluetooth on TP2, it worked with TP!
