Good day,
I used to run Navigon, Destinator and VITO GPS software on my Jamin on WM6.0 and everything was working perfectly.
I upgraded my device to WM6.1 and I like it very much for stability and performance however the GPS programs are not working any more!
The problem is that the programs can not see the GPS any more.
I am using Bluetooth external GPS receiver from Hulox, any idea?
Appreciating your help in advance.
Best regards.
i had no problem on wm6.1 n holux gpslim 240. maybe the softwareis not configured correctly? have you checked BT settings?
Yes I've checked the BT settings and the GPS receiver was paired correctley with the Jamin, however when I go to the software and click GPS settings -> search for BT receiver ; the software can not find it.

Hi guys,
I've been using the 1.72 ROM for a couple of weeks now and I must say it is the most stable ROM since I've my MDA II. The radio on/off works like a charm and so does the bluetooth. But.....
I use TomTom Navigator 3 with an Emtac bluetooth GPS. It works fine with this ROM but I can't use TomTom anymore without the Emtac bluetooth GPS. What I mean is: Before this ROM I would sometimes open up TomTom to look something up on the map. This would be with bluetooth turned off and my GPS would be somewere else. Now with this 1.72 ROM and the Bluetooth Tools in it, I can't do this anymore. My MDA II will slow down in opening TomTom and will then freeze. It needs a soft reset to get out of this stage. This is very repeatable. I think it has to do with the bluetooth tools in the ROM.
So my questions are:
1. Does any of you guys have the same problem with a bluetooth GPS?
2. Can I do a hard reset and not let this bluetooth tools be installed and still get my bluetooth GPS working?
I hope any of you knows the answer to this (minor) problem.
Thanks!

are you using the latest version of the tomtom gps driver, I had this problem on my old IPAQ 3970. but everything works fine on my XDA with 1.72 and bluetooth tools
I use the very, very latest GPS driver. So you can't reproduce that problem with a bluetooth gps mouse?
Wouter
I have a GlobalSat GPS mouse and it works fine.

I also have the latest GPS driver with the TomTom Wireless (Bluetooth) GPS mouse and works without any problem
Hi Xzanix,
Just to be sure if I just have bad luck. You can open the map in TomTom and look something up without the bluetooth GPS turned on? (I just want to be sure....)
Thanks,
Wouter

Hi guys,
This thread can be closed. I solved the problem!
I tell you what I did. I had in the GPS settings choosen for COM5 because I had that one activated in the Bluetooth Tools. This was how TT did work but didn't work with no GPS turned on.
Now I turned Bluetooth Tools off and choose for Bluetooth GPS in the GPS settings. Now it works how it is supposed and I can still look something up on the map without my bluetooth GPS turned on.
I'm so happy! :lol:

Hi,
I have recently upgraded to an XDA2s from an XDA2. All my software runs fine with the exception of one clash. My Tomtom 3 software prevents the bluetooth from connecting with anything. If I do a build without Tomtom, the bluetooth works fine.
The GPS unit isn't bluetooth, its a wired one.
The bluetooth headset is compatible with the XDA2s and works.
Has anyone seen this/Fixed it?
I'm having to keep 2 backups on the go, one with Tomtom and one without. Ideally I'd like to not have to do this
All ideas most welcome. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
UPDATE : I have upgraded my radio to version 6.10 and my bluetooth drivers to 3900. The bluetooth is much better now but Tomtom still interrupts it.
I'm using the latest rom on my XDA2 (WMK5_2.01a32WWE) and TT Navigator 5.21 but I just can't get my Polstar PGM-111 wired receiver working at all, I've tried all sorts of input/output port settings even disabling GPS in control panel and yet I can't get connected. Don't really want to go back to 2003 as it works no probs but I just can't get this resolved in WM5, please any help would be wonderful before I lose any more hair!!
I have an i-Blue 737 BT GPS. I have it set up for COM2 and I can not get it to work correctly. I have tried it with GPS Tuner, GPS Gate, OziExplorer, iGuidance and Google Maps and it will not work with any of them. The only program it works with is Tom Tom 6. I had each program set to look at COM2. Any ideas?
What are you running? (Hint: if it's not WM6, you're posting in the wrong forum)
Have you got it set as an incomming or outgoing port?
Same hardware working fine
I have an iMate JasJam with exactly the same GPS which I purchased today.
In conjunction with WM6 Black & Tomtom 6 it is working fine.
It is appearing on COM0:
tomtom is well known for hogging gps all for itself and not letting anything else play.
Head to the forums at pocketgpsworld.com
to use my Pharos GPS I had to open an outgoing port on the 8525 bluetooth section I think com9 before it would talk to the gps.

i think you have to set it on com 0 i have the exact same reicever and it work perfect on WM6 pro black 3.01 .
after installing WM6, tomtom doesn't find bluetooth GPS.
You need to configure gps ports and baud in the GPS settings.
everything is working correct for me!
equal to any previous versions!
Tried out with TomTom GPS MKII
