Hi guys, I have the following question:
I am planning to buy e bluetooth GPS receiver for my Prophet. In my car, however, I have a bluetooth hands-free system installed. So my question is, will it be possible to have both the GPS receiver and the hands-free system connected to my phone at the same time?
Thanx,
Boyan
Seriously, no one has tried this before? I suppose it should be working, but I really don't want to spend the money on a GPS receiver and not be able to use it simultaneously with my car kit...
hello there blazarov,
it will work, and yes many have already got this up and working.
Search for SIG or Piconet or simple Bluetooth on say Google
and it will get clear to you.
I have experienced i have to let Tom Tom activate bluetooth
and then my Rikaline GPS receiver and my Parrott carkit work.
In this order it goes well.
When bluetooth activated and connected to my Parrott carkit and then activating TomTom it can't find/connect to my Rikaline GPS receiver.
btw i use Qtek S200 ( = HTC Prophet)

Ok this might sound a bit dumb to you guys but I'm having a little situation here.
I got tomtom 5.1 and just got the glabalsat bt338 receiver.
I have paired the device with my xda as I have paired a nokia BT headset.
When I switch on the nokia headset and bluetooth, the pda and headset establish a connection automatically.
I would like to do the same for the bt338. As soon as the bluetooth is on, it should establish a connection.
I am not able to do this. I have to click on the bluetooth manager, double click the bt338 for it to establish the connection. Then I have to exit bt manager and turn on tom tom. Still tomtom does not detect the GPS receiver until I click on the GPS device settings and select OTHER BT RECEIVER and then select Blutooth receiver on COM5.
Only then does the GPS show any life.
I would like to know how to get the BT338 to work by just turning on TOMTOM.
It should authenticate and establish the connection on its own, and by the time its up, i should be able to input a destination.
Confusing? No?
easy there mate, give it time....once you have the BT338 paired with your handset, switch everything off.
then 1st switch on your BT338, then switch on your PDA...start up TomTom and leave it for at least 1 minute...it should switch on Bluetooth automatically and connect to the BT338, i had this issue and the 5.1 update solved it...let us know if successful.
I am interested in this http://www.parrot.biz/united_kingdom/products/index.php?id=ck3300 Does anybody have any experience using this device, how well does it work etc. ?
I plan on using it with O2 Mini S and possibly Tom Tom software what do you guys think?
I have a CK3300 and the similar CK3100 (no GPS) in my wife's car.
They work superbly with Sony Ericsson phones, less well with Motorolas and Nokias but a bit of a disaster with the XDA Mini-S. Doesn't auto connect, doesn't synch contacts properly, overwrites voice tags. There's a bunch of posts on the subject in the Parrot forum on their website. Rumours that there will be a software upgrade shortly which will address some issues.
I haven't got around to trying the GPS with TomTom on the XDA (as I can't get it to install!) but it worked fine with my previous PPC (an iPaq RX3715)

I have a CK3300 not had to meany problems on the GPS side but my xda 2s and my axd mini would not work with the handsfree bit.
My xda exec works fine on GPs and handsfree.
Very good bit of kit overall
Beside experience, I have a question to post here.
I have Parrot СК3300 for 2 years. As handsfree kit, it works perfectly with Sonyericsson K750i, 700i, Z800, P900. With Sonyericsson P900, it works perfectly as hands free kit and GPS module simultaneously.
However, after connecting my QTEK2020i (1.11.00 WWE, Radio 1.02.00, ExtROM 1.11.113 WWE dd 27of Jan 2005) I can use Parrot as GPS module only. Any attempts to use Parrot as kar kit leads only to loud clicks from speakers. So just for now, I use Parrot as hands-free for Sonyericsson K700i and as GPS module with QTEK simultaneously.
No way to fix it. I delete all Bluetooth devices, soft reset, ad only Parrot as hands-free, soft reset. No result.
Can you suggest me how to fix it.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
I have a CK 3000 intsalled with Tom Tom and a third party BT GPS mouse. The Parrot works very well but it has to be paired as a Hands-free set and not as a headset. One small bug, though: I have to start TT first for the GPS to connect when getting back into the vehicle. After that I start the engine, which connects the CK3000 to my MDA II. If the CK is connected first, TT can't find the mouse.
I've been looking for a way to get the audio to be put through the the CK. I once found a piece of software that could do that on this site but inspite of hours of searching, I haven't been able to find it again. - HELP!
parrot car kit
I have a parrot CK3500 GPS car kit and it works well with TomTom Mobile 5 on my SPV E200 ,C500, C550 and has worked with TomTom Navigator 5 my M2000 as well. This is for Voice AND GPS simultaneously.
with earlier versions of TOMTOM i needed to rename the bluetooth connection from Parrot to TomTom Wireless GPS.
I have an XDA Mini S too which is on a data only tariff (so havent tried handsfree) but TomTom 5 works with it for GPS. They seem a little fiddly to set up, but once set up they are great.
I found i needed to use "AnyGPS Tweak" on all the smartphones to get it to connect initially
I had a CK3300 in another car and that worked exactly the same.
The only criticism is that the GPS voice instructions dont go through the speakers. However sometimes they do, and it seems to be if you start TomTom before you switch on the car ignition, the car kit thinks a call is in progress and relays the GPS through the speakers. It doesnt always work, but sometimes its a bit of a shock to get Jane bellowing through the speaker!!
The downside is that if you take a voice call over the car kit, it seems to re-set and the GPS voice then reverts back to the phone speaker.
I have emailed Parrot about this and have not had a reply as yet.

Thanks for your reply.
As far as I understand, I can't solve problem with incoming - outcoming telephone calls by some "secret' QTEK settings.
Therefore, I'll try to find "Any Bluetooth Tweak" program to fix it.
Can you suggest any "Tweak" software?
I recently installed the HTC WM6 ROM and was pleased with its speed etc. however the bluetoth has changed in some way and I was unable to use my Mototola handsfree car kit. I then tried the B&B 3.7 and had the same problem.
Is there a workaround i.e. have the wm6 rom with the old bluetooth ?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Some car-kits show as a headset, some as a hands free. The WM6 blutooth only seems to recognise Hands Free. My car kit does both, On Nokia it shows both, on WM6 only Hands Free.
Does anyone have a Headset Stack?
WM6 and car kit!
I have the same problem! If i activate the hansfree e deactivate it works! Is a motorola a like carkit! Can sameone help me? Tks
I have the cheapo aldi BT car cd radio. If I turn the radio on then the BT on my phone the radio mutes. But if I do it the other way round, ie BT on then turn radio on, it worls fine

Hi All,
I've got a Dopod C730, I'm loving the device except for some problems I'm having with bluetooth devices. I've recently bought a Jabra BT320s Stereo bluetooth headset and a iBT-GPS bluetooth GPS receiver.
I can pair these devices with my phone, but on the Jabra I can't see the stereo profile and I can't see how to set up the com-port for the GPS, I'd particularly like to use it with Google Maps
Anny help would be appreciated

That'll teach me not to search. This was just what I was looking for
Now I just need to workout what's happening with my headset.
Anyone else got a Jabra BT320s?
I do -- it works well with my T-Mobile Dash, but it's got completely different innards than a Cavalier.

Hello friends!
I searched in the whole Artemis forum about the pairing between htc3300 and MB bluetooth car kit SAP V2 but it seems there isn´t a fix to this problem.
Anybody knows if there is solution to this problem (new rom, patch, software, etc)?
Thakyou in advance and sorry for my bad english
Best regards
Nope, I am afraid there is no solution for this. I had the very same problem and learned the hard way that htc3300 doesn't allow SIM access, so you need to get the handsfree bluetooth unit from Mercedes (ebay search "Mercedes bluetooth hfp" shows you the prices). With this unit, your htc operates as sender and receiver, you can't use your Mercedes phone antenna. That's the downside, but the upside is that you can use your htc as navigation system during bluetooth connection in the car (which you couldn't if SAP had taken control over the device)
