Rikaline 6010 for xdaII

I am not able to use the receiver with Autoroute 2004(pocket streets). The manual suggests that I ensure a virtual COM port is established before connecting the receiver, which I am not able to get around. I am lost and stuck with an expensive receiver. Can some help, please? ASAP

Daz, when you try to run the program does it give the option to choose your gps/com port?

no, nothing came up on the screen. Fortunately I have been able to resolve the problem. Need to disable to incoming beam option in connection setting

I currently have the same problem with rakaline 6031-x7 and tomtom navigator. I use to connect the gps reciever via blutooth manager as slave and then set it up in tomtom on my ipaq. now I can't find any options in bluetooth settings on my xda2. Any chance of a little help?
:?

gavcha, the xda2 is braindead where bluetooth is concerned, are you running the latest gps 2.09 from tomtom? If you are using that and it still isnt working, download towas patch, remove the gps from the bonding on your bluetooth, install towas patch, run tomtom wizard, gps manager in discoverable mode, add device in bt manager by choosing "new", choose the gps, ok everything, towas patch should then come up and give you the serial option, choose that. When finished go to tomtom gps, choose tomtom bluetooth and in the second drop down your gps should be available, choose that and it should work.

Cheers mate. me being the impatient ba£$%rd that I am found this site
http://bluetooth.i-networx.de/index_e.html
Very usefull, up and running in no time. Seems to be in the same vein as your suggestion. Thanks for all your help I am slowly getting use to this xda milarky! Finaly I can sell the Ipaq!!!!
Cheers again.

Good to know it works, when O2 release the update it should get better, by the way that link you posted has been a pain in the ass for me, I have clicked that link in numerous posts and NEVER been able to connect, I have the patch now but does anybody else have problems linking to the above link.?

yeah i had problems going back to it when i was checking it to put it in my last post. try googling xda2 bluetooth manager. thats what took me to another forum with the link to this. worth a try. :idea:

Pairing my GPS receiver with bluetooth + tomtom problems

I got a GPS receiver, this one: http://www.widget.co.uk/asp/product...cat=45&ph=&keywords=&recor=&SearchFor=&PT_ID=
It didn't come with any instructions.
I am trying to pair it with my phone, as Tomtom 5 asks me to, but I don't know what passkey to put in or how to go about doing it...
I have created a connection to it in bluetooth manager and tried to add it in tomtom to no avail.
I have an XDA 2i with all the default ROMs etc.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Thanks.
[Edit]
After digging around on the net I found out how to pair them. It seems that the company who sold me this didn't even include the code to pair the device with! Now I have the problem of tomtom not detecting it...
It seems that COM6 is the port which the bluetooth GPS receiver is on but in tomtom it only lets me select from COM4, COM2 and COM9 - how should I go about connecting it?
NB: I have tested the GPS with some application that I found for it on the net and it *seems* to not have a fix, though it has been connected and turned on a long time.

GPS and Windows mobile 2006

I installed Faria WM6 , I have an Bluetooth GPS iBlue (BT-GPS-Q800) - chipset NEMERIX 16 canale that worked perfectly with WM5.
Now I am able to conect with the bluetooth at the GPS but IGO dos not recognise my GPS ..?!!?
Should I do something special in WM6 ?

Are you sure that you have the correct port address in the igo? I sometime have to set it myself in tomtom if its having a off day, but only happens 1 in 1,000,000 times

IGO has an option to search all ports ...and it can not find anything...
I think that is a problem with the GPS settings from Settings->Connection->GPS from WM6...

Igo won't find your GPS, just go to GPS Settings in IGO, choose the port which you set for your GPS, outgoing port. Set the speed to 57600, turn your GPS receiver off and on, now it will connect....
Don't forget to turn on Bluetooth, Igo won't do this like TT does.

Don't mess with GPS settings in WM6 and/or 5.

Astronavigator and gps bluetooth

Hello to everyone, I'm new on the forum, and I hope this is the right section to my problem:
I have installed Vito Astronavigator 2.02 on my ppc, but this program don't find my gps, and in the software there are no option to choose the com port.
I've a Qtek 2020 with wm6 (tofclock, I don't know what it is), and my gps is an Holux 236 bluetooth.
I thank everyone who can help, hello!

GPS Test
Hi
Use GPS Test (attached) to find out whether or not you can get GPS data. If you can then it is the software you need to configure. If not, then you will need to configure the port your phone receives the GPS data from. Have a go at that and post how you get on. From memory you need to set up a Bluetooth Serial Port to your GPS device in the bluetooth settings and then mirror this port in the GPS settings.
Cheers

Hi, thanks to the answer. I use the gps bluetooth for tom tom, and it works well, so I think that the problem is in the software. I've configured my qtek to use the com port5, but in astronavigator there are no option to choose the port! However now I try to use your program and later I'll do know to you. Thanks hello!

Samsung Omnia Pro B7330 - Problems with TomTom internal GPS

Hi @ all,
first of all a happy new year
I wonder if anyone has the Omnia B7330 running with TomTom 7 on it. I have the problem that TomTom doesn't find the internal GPS. I tried all possible settings with
"internal GPS"
" other NMEA GPS"
and all possible Baud rates and com Ports
but TomTom does not find the internal GPS.
In the meantime I wonder if perhaps the internal GPS might be damaged and I should send the device back??
On my HTC Snap (Maple) TomTom recognizes the internal GPS immediately.
I als tried to manage something concerning "Port Splitter", but most of these programs are not for WM without touchscreen....
Any ideas how to get this working?
Best Regards
Jolig

Hi, if you want to know if your device is working or not, try GPS Test 1.04. There is a cab file for it, "google is your friend" as they say. 8) If you run the program (it is good for non-touchscreens as well) and it can find a signal, then you have to fine tune your navigation software, if no signal, then you have a faulty device.
Happy New Year!

Welcome to forums
Hope this helps:
http://cellphoneforums.net/samsung/
Good luck,

Same Thing here...
...the Testapp recognizes the GPS on COM3 with 9600Baud and can work with it. The GPS Module seems to be working well, found my position after 10secs. TomTom however can't work with the GPS-Module... I'm on TomTom 7.910.
Any idea?
JC

Try this
-----Omnia Configuration-----
Settings\Hardware\External GPS
*GPS program port: COM2
*GPS hardware port: COM9
- Baud Rate: 9600
*Manage GPS automatically: YES
------Tomtom Configuration-----
*GPS NMEA
*Baud rate 4800
*COM2
IMPORTANT
When you make all the steps you have to see in the Satellites top/right windows of the tomtom a little Yellow/Black ball rolling, that means the GPS is working. You only have to wait to your Omnia GPS find the signal.
-> You can download an XTRA GPS DATA to improve the finding speed of the GPS, personally I can not see the diference between NO XTRA DATA and XTRA DATA.
Settings\Hardware\Enchanced GPS
*Enable XTRA DATA CONNECTION
*Disable automatically download.
*Press download button
With that configuration in my omnia I don't have any problem with Tomtom.

The Testapp also recognizes the GPS on COM3 on my B7330.
But it dosen't work on TomTom 7.910.
Is there a way to change the GPS to use COM2 ?

tom tom
Hello!
Do this:
use another phone with touch screen, set the tom tom gps as an external port and the appropriate speed,
save your settings. fire up tomtom on omni pro b-7330.
Can you type the addresses correctly? I had a problem with another phone with qwerty by tomtom7.

Erroneous indication of gps in omni pro B-7330 / no fix
Erroneous indication of gps in omni pro B-7330 / no fix
I need help, my gps in the B-7330 incorrectly indicates the distance of some 400km,
Is it a bug?
after uploading the google maps, fix grabs for a few seconds, and incorrectly states the place automapa (another program to navigation) also indicates the wrong place but other than google maps, the difference of some 1000km.,
I used GPSTEST 1.04:
COM3: 9600kb.
Is it firmware bug, or damage is hard?
using the settings from the post in advance Com9: omnia has gps pro, but did not catch the fix - no signal satleitów.
So, are you sure the port Com9?
So I need help

You should try posting on the proper section for this non HTC device:

TomTom is pants on the 7330.
I'm using Route 66 (v7) with UK and Europe maps. GPS can be interigated through the menu and cold fix is quicker than most I've used.
No GPS lag, and other than the soft button icons sitting above the call and call end buttons (can cause confusion), I would recommend going down this route instread (no pun intended)
Also strangely, the 'browse map' facility is managed through the 'zoom to' function.
Alan.
