Friends. I got IGO 08 but there is a problem with the hardware and software. IGO 08 can not see the internal GPS on my Touch pro. Any one has an idea why or whats the port and baud number that GPS build in Touch pro. I will try to make it manuel instead of Auto. Would be highly appreciated to get your ideas how to move forward.
Thanks.
Emrah
It can be an option for GPS to be managed automatically by Windows or you can use manual settings. Try to find this option (don't remember if on global settings on Windows or in iGO but I had similair problem afair)
B.
As stated by the member above, you have to make sure that the checkbox under settings>external gps>Access tab is checked
For your iGO settings, enter GPS settings and choose COM4 and baud rate auto or 4800
If you have further probs, PM me
Next time put this type of questions on another thread than Rom development.

Subject: After flash,where did COM1 go?
From: reswobslc
Date: 29 Dec, 2002 03:04:06
Hello,
I have a weird issue that came up on my T-Mobile PPCPE after I
flashed from 3.02 to 3.14. I can no longer open COM1, in
anything!
I can't open COM1 in Pocket Streets (it doesn't even show up in
the COM port list).
If I load a terminal emulation program, it sees COM1, but when
trying to open the port, it fails.
There is no equivalent replacement port for it. Other COM ports
are COM2, COM3, COM8, COM9, but all of these have different
documented purposes and aren't my GPS com port.
Anyone have any ideas?

Just to make sure my own software didn't cause problems, I
backed up my RAM to SD and hard-reset my phone. COM1 still
didn't come back... however...
I was able to answer my own question by finding the following
answer in a newsgroup:
------------
You have to change a registry value:
HKLM\Comm\Irsir1\Parms
change the value "Port" from 1 to 9 and then reset your device.
Now you can use your GPS on com1 without compromising others
phone functions.
-------------
After having done this, COM1 is back, now COM9 is gone. I will
say this solved my problem, though if anyone tries this and
finds unexpected problems resulting from COM9 being gone (and
comes up with a better idea of which number instead of 9 would
be more appropriate), definitely say something!
ADMIN please post this fix somewhere as surely others will have
the same issue!

I have (almost) the same problem. When I start TomTom Navigator
I get the fault: Cannot open COM1: Port does not exist. When I
alter the value from 1 to 9 all goes well with TTN. However I
then will be not able to make a GPRS connection (when the value
is 1 then I can).
Please help.
TIA,

I had exactly the same problem with TomTom routeplanner but if
you turn off the Infra Red Receiving option under
Start/settings/connections/beam I think you will find that com1
then becomes available. I also turned of the 'Enable
synchronisation when cradled using:' in the Active Sync options
as I had a feeling that the XDA detected the seial connection
and was trying to sync. with my GPS. I alson found that if you
disconnect the cable when navigating that it locks the XDA up
which then has to be reset.

Thanks for your answer, works also fine with me.

turned the default receive all beans to OFF and it found my rikaline 6010 gps on com1 right away.

How can I change the registery as described here?
Thanks for helping

Hi everybody,
I do really need an extra help with my XDA and Mapopolis GPS kit. I connected everything right, the GPS antenna (Holux 210) works fine bilinking since the sats are linked, but my Mapopolis software regularly mounted on my XDA doesn't want to work. It still keep itself "frozen" searching for on COM1 port and it did not reply to any command on touch screen.
What's wrong???? Anyone can help me? Please...
Thanks so much for your help....

Not sure if this will fix your problem, but I had a similar situation with mapopolis a while ago.
I'll assume you already have your GPS set up to do NMEA at 4800 baud. Also, this process is described for PPC2002, I haven't been able to try out PPC2003 yet.
Go to the PPC settings window (Start Menu->Settings), and choose the "Connections" tab. Tap "Beam" and ensure that the box for "Recieve all incoming beams" is NOT checked. Click ok.
When this box is checked, it creates some kind of conflict over COM1 which prevents Mapopolis from connecting to the GPS. When I turned this option off, everything started working.
Good luck!
Orbit2-- GPS cannot be detected with IGO PLS HELP?!?!?
I have a HUGE problem with getting my GPS running on my Orbit2. It came from O2 with CoPilot7 preinstalled with the maps of UK and Ireland, which I dont use, because I am not located inthere, nevertheless Copilot detects GPS signal and shows positioning, but i dint have the maps for the area that i am in.
I tried to install IGO6 and then IGO8 but I have the same problem-- it cannot detect GPS device, no matter what which COMM Port and BAUD Rate I select.
How come CoPilot detects, and IGO does not? I read that Orbit2 is not locked?!?
Should I boot the whole device using some other ROM.
Please do not double Post
I suggested an answer for you over in the Athena post. In the future, please do not double post as this only clutters the forum.
I have a Toshiba TG01 touch phone with gps. I loaded mm successfully including maps. However after a variable amount of time from 10 seconds to 5 minutes the mm software automatically closes and the phone returns to its home page. It always finds a gps signal so it's not even that. I've tried changing power settings on the phone. Reloading the software but nothing seems to help. Please help anyone who's had a similar problem on any device. Thank you

I never used the Memory map, but Garmin Mobile XT and IGO 8 work perfectly on my TG01.
+1 garmin the best
high detail maps and acuracy
Errmm, this is Memory Map, not car navigation like Garmin or iGo.
All I can say is that MM on my TG01 has never closed down on its own. What version are you using?
Thank you for your replies. I have recently updated the mm to version 5.4.2 I hadn't loaded the previous one onto the tg01 so i dont know if that would make a difference. If I turn the satellite off by just altering the com port then mm stays on, could it be something to to do with the gps?
My version is 5.1.3 build 716, I haven't had a previous version loaded. I'm running it through GPS Gate as I need to use that for Tomtom anyway.
You could try using a different ROM and Radio stack.

Hello nueloc,
I have garmin xt but I can not get it to work. Would you be able to tell me installation instructions. Garmin will not recognise key. I have tomtom working but i wanted to try another sat nav as it seems garmin could be the preferred choice.
thanks,

Hi guys
could any one please be so kind as to help me with a problem im having.
i have a spv m5000 on orange which i have change the mother board over with a o2 exec mother board running windows mobile 6.1 seems to be working fine no issues however i have tried to pair both my gps units with it but to no avail, i have a Holox BT-541 and a navicore BT-GPS-32354D i have tried both of them and have same problem,
my xda see's them and adds them fine but when i try to connect to one in the xda it says unable to connect or wrong passkey i have used 0000 for holox which thats what it says in the holox pdf but have also tried 1234 but i think this is a com port problem i have tried all com ports some will go in ok but still cant connect to gps i also tried this "go into TomTom and use the NMEA devices with baud rate of 38400" this did not work, before i changed mother board i had these working fine on older tomtom and original spv m5000 mother board so i dont know if this is a win mobile 6.1 problem or not i see quite a few people with same problem but no solution that worked for me any way.
i have seen thred taking about pairing before tomtom installation but not sure that will fix my issue as i think i tried to pair before i installed any way.
has any one any ideas on this any help would be really appreciated this is getting to be a pain in the rear!.
also there is an icon in the system tab "external gps" can any one tell me the correct settings in there ie for program tab and hardware tab what com port and baud rate should be and whether the manage gps auto should be ticked
many Thanks in avance for any help you can give here.
Kind regards
Daz
Ok found solution,
after spending way too much time on this crap! I finally found the issue as I stated I thought
it was a mobile 6.1 issue and I was right, in mobile 6.1 they have added a external GPS shortcut
in system tab it is here the problem exists.
my problem was resolved by the following procedure.
On your XDA go to Start/Settings/Connections click on Bluetooth short then add new device once it has found it
enter passkey 0000 or whatever yours is once it has made the first connection then do the following,
1. Under "device tab" click on your unit and make sure the serial port is "UNCHECKED" disabled then click save.
2. Under "Mode tab" make sure (Turn on blue tooth) and (Make this device visible to other devices) are "CHECKED" enable them.
3. Under "COM ports" select a port, I chose 0 don't think it matters but if so chose another but remember what one you choose.
4. Under "Security tab" Authentication (passkey) required "CHECK" enable it click ok to come out of Bluetooth.
5. Under "System tab" click on "External GPS short cut.
6 Under "Programs tab" select (None) for GPS program port.
7. Under "Hardware tab" select port 0 or same as you gave your Bluetooth com port and issue the "Baud rate" 115200 or lower rate.
8. Under "Access tab" Manage GPS automatically (recommended) "CHECK" enable
9. Finally check your xda is blinking a blue light and turn on your tom-tom software it should now pick it up, all done.
Final note it seems that Microsoft have made one more buggy operating system, no change there then LOL
and as a result you can't seem to use the blue tooth pairing process as intended so this is a working work around
one more thing there is a 2nd bug found and that is when you turn off your GPS unit and try to use your xda you might
find that your last page froze up here you will have to mess around with it i.e. try turning off your tom-tom software first
and then your GPS, Thanks to bill gates for yet another windows operating system that doesn't work as advertised.
Well we had Hendrix king of rock, Marley king of reggae, Elvis king of rock'n'role then there's you bill gates king of crap!
Long live the king!!!!! LOVL
