GPS wired slution for XDA,MDA,Imate, SPvM1000

(1)I am able to help you to repair MDA, SPvM1000, XDAI&II Qtek if you have difficulties in getting it repaired in the UK.
(2) I also supply the wired GPS solutions for the above-mentioned model: It includes:
-- In car holder
-- GPS receiver
-- Car charger
-- TomTom navigation software ( you purchase on your own).
Bluetooth solution is available which I do not recommend as the wired solution does not require you to charge the GPS receiver.

Polaris as a Bluetooth GPS reciever

I'm looking for a way to turn my Polaris into a GPS reciever for my MSI Wind...
Does anyone got some ideas?

I've never tried these, but you could use GPSGate.

GPS Voice guidance via Bluetooth

Hi,
does anyone know if it is possible to get sat-nav voice guidance via a Bluetooth headset on an O2 XDA Orbit. I bought two of these recently on Ebay. Was kinda hoping I could use them on the bike rather than spend a fortune on a Tom Tom Rider or Garmin Zumo. I've tried this with a Nokia E71 and it works, but I can't get it to work with the Orbit. I'm using Garmin Mobile XT 5.0, but I think the issue is with the Orbit, not the sat-nav software?

all a2dp able headsets should transfer all sounds from the pda to the headset

... Or any PPC with Broadcom Bluetooth Stack (because there is an option in settings that you can tick to route all sistem sounds over bluetooth)

interesting question possibley a stupid one

hello everyone i have question or maybe an idea for a talented dev i was wondering if it is possible to emulate a key fob (for a car alarm) using a windows mobile phone

Not the standard 433MHz transmitter.
But it would be possible to achieve similar with Bluetooth. Then you have to integrate a bluetooth receiver into your car alarm. Using serial communication you would then transmit lock/unlock commands. It would also be possible to auto-pair when in range and unlock the car automatically.

All thing are very "Techi" to me but if it possible then its defiantly proud to be WM user.
Anyway is it working with any other handsets...?

The Chevy Volt is suppossed to have an iPhone and BlackBerry app that will allow that, so yes its definitely possible. But their sollution may rely on 3G connectivity on both ends, I'm not sure.

" But their sollution may rely on 3G connectivity on both ends, I'm not sure."
if that is the case then the car would have to have a sim card too
otherwise you don't get a 3g connection more likely it's wifi based

In theory, you could use one of the phones with a USB port, with an adapter to 433 MHz to read in the pairing, then re-pair with a car.
But directly pair with a standard car-fob arrangement without additional hardware, no.

Bluetooth disconnecting with GPS

I'm having an issue with my Bluetooth and am wondering if anyone else is having the same issue. For some reason, when I have my car connected via Bluetooth for audio/calls and I connect to GPS (using Garmin or VZ navigator, for example), the Bluetooth fully disconnects. I can have the car reconnect just fine, but if I leave the navigation open, the Bluetooth will disconnect again almost immediately. I know this isn't an issue with my car, as I've had other phones that don't have the issue.
At this point I'm not sure if it's a hardware or software issue. I have the Verizon 8x. Is anyone else having this problem?
