I just bought a navman 440 for xda2 but foud the pairing problem....
read someting from previous threads...
it is been a while.....does any one know how to solve this?
please!
thanks
Have you upgraded to the new rom version? I heard it solves the bt-gps problems....
Navman
The navman pin code is NAVMAN
Doesn't work with Xda II BT, which expects numbers.
Oh well - put pressure on Navman t change their firmware and O2 to change Xda II.
The 4400 is a sealed unit, there's no way of hooking it into a PC to change any firmware.
As to the passkey issue, it's Microsoft not allowing blank keys which is the problem, the 4400 isn't the only device which wants to pair without a numerical passkey...
Navman BT GPS - on XDA II
You'll find that loading the Widcomm BT stack on the XDA II (it can co-exist with the Microsoft one) should fix it from what I've been told.
It certainly fixes the issue on the Leadtek GPS units and I'm told that the Widcomm stack works with non numeric pins.
Search these forums for current location of the link to the Widcomm stack (The Towa fix won't help you BTW).
Cheers
Andy
I'm probably going nuts, but I can't find working links anywhere in the forum to a copy of the widcomm stack.
Can someone help? Please?
Solution wihtout using the WidCom Software
If you still did not find a solution please try the folowing
- Get the file http://www.angeltowns.com/town/bluetooth/EnableCharPin.zip
- Copy the file EnableCharPin.exe to you PDA
- Start the bonding dialog until you get the password screen
- Now launch the explorer and start the executable (you will get a small message)
- Get back to the password screen (if you don't find it click on the BT icon in the today screen)
- Characters are now enabled
Best regards,
Tobias

SameProblem?!
Hello!
I'm a newbee... i want to connect a GPS 4TomTom to the USB Port.
So i don't really know, how to connect the MDA II to the USB GPS-Mouse.
I've taken an USB cable, that could charge the MDA II and build a adapter to connect the cable and the GPS Mouse in it. It won't work. I've think so already, but i've read it anywhere in the www.
So, could anybody help me with the Problem?
I've an Haicom HI-202E GPS-Mouse,
the MDA II :wink:
a soldering iron...
and a 5V Powersupply in my adapter (consists of 2 USB ports connected to each other, powersupplied with an 7805 (2A))
How can i fix it?
Thanks!

I'm not 100% sure, but i think, that wouldn't work.
The USB Specifications says that USB requires one master device to controll the slave devices. Your PC is the master device and the mda is just an slave. You won't be able to get 2 slaves talking to each other without a master.....
Stefan
cant the MDA work as an Master?
I've heard it so. But I'm not shure.
Some people gets a external HDD working on other PDA's.
I'll look and think about, but i've never found anithing an web for thet problem/solution. :roll:
I've wondered that nobody wants to connect more on the PDA...
I mean 20Gig HDD may be nice in Holliday to listen music :wink:
the tomtom software for PPC's will enable under "GPS-status - GPS" the options to select a protocol/GPS-Mouse and the connection:
Ir
BT on com6
serial on com1
com9
.
.
Serial on USB
Bluetooth GPS
so, i thought it will
Thanks for more...
Found this in another thread:
Julian Thompson said:
Yes, this is right. The XDA2 won't function as a USB host. You do need that backpack and a www.ratocsystems.com host card. Then it will work.
I know this becuase I'm trying to link mine up to a HDD to store loads of music in my car and use the PPC as a controller but I don't want the confounded backpack - for you though on the motorbike, only using it when you need it it sounds perfect.

Hi
I have an xda 1 & am trying to get the gps to work. I have a Haicom hi204s gps receiver & a (ic-xda-ht for 02 xda tmoble ) cable for the car.
The software I am using is tom tom 3 ver 3.02
I have turned the beam off
My settings for the gps page are Haicom GPS + com1
I am at a loss !!
Rgds

@nobody: THE MDA can ony act as slave.
BUT: For GPS you ony need a serial port. And after all USB IS a serial type of port.
Only thing you need to do is solder a cable that connects the +5v, ground, Tx and Rx of the GPS USB connector to the appropiate pins of the MDA connector . . . .
On one of the german forums (cant remember the name :-( )there is a memeber nicked 'mocki' that offers custom built cables.
Tanman, choose nmea 4800 and com 1. Make sure beams are off and also that you dont have a keyboard driver loaded. Go to the gps screen in tomtom and see if there is any bars showing for satellites. If this doesnt work or gives an error let me know.
Hi cruisin-thru
Worked a treat
what I could not find at first was 'nmea 4800' which was the name of the sat receiver
Nice one thanx a lot
Tan
Tanman, that is actually the protocol used by the receiver rather than the name/model. Glad its sorted for you.

:?: :?:
So what you're saying is that, asl ong as the hardware is compatible with NMEA, we can use this generic driver with the correct baud spreed ?
Yes
A collegue of mine bought in germany a Bluetooth GPS receiver for about €60,- but this GPS receiver doesn't need to have a PIN.
Now if we install a bluetooth devise on our MDA we need to enter a pin.
this one says in the software installation, to use the bluetoothmanager
Does anybody know of this issue and has a work arround
Thanks
If it asks for a number then try 0000 if not then see what happens. Just carry out the normal bonding procedure, it maybe that the pin is only requested if the gps supports it.
You need to tell what brand and which model. GlobalSat BT308, PIN = 2003, GlobalSat BT338, PIN = 0000, etc.
It should be in the user manual which you can download from their site.
Hi,
I'm hoping someone out there will be kind enough to help and solve this problem before I rip all my hair out!!!
I've installed tomtom (V5.00) on my mda pro, but I can't get it to recognise my bluetooth gps receiver.
I've set up a bluetooth partnership with an outgoing COM port. My MDA allows me to choose COM0 ,COM4,COM8
When I select other Bluetooth device from Tom Tom configuration, it gives me the options:
QCT Data Interface
Serial Cable on COM1
COM7
RIL on COM6
Infrared Port
Ir on COM3
I can't seem to align the software and the bluetooth to get it working correctly. Please help
Update your application to at least version 5,21 to get this working, have a look at http://www.tomtom.com/support/index.php?Language=1&FID=3361 for the software - Mike
Apart from the 5.21 and above (current is 6.03) software requirement, many users also have to set a COM port your MDA offers you (i.e. COM0) manually in the navigator.cfg (or was it .dat, don´t remember,try) file where the COM is stored that TT is using. Just change to navigator.txt, edit and change back to .cfg Good luck.

Having problems connecting via bluetooth with diamond. I did it with my laptop. The diamond asks for a passcode. Inputting anything but blank comes up with an error. After accepting the incoming connection, it asks for another passcode, this time I can't input nothing, when I input something I get an error of incorrect passcode, if I click cancel, it doesn't type.
Any ideas?
Same problem here!
I connected a logitech dinovo mini with my diamond with no problem.. diamond ask a passkey, write with keyboard and then work...
sup guys..
I have a LG MS25, it's an american model of LG KS20.
At the firt time, when i tryed the IRXON keyboard I had this problem.. but then I start to look at the options and uncheck some bluetooth criptography and security parameters.. and it works!!
Now i digit the passcode and the connection is acepted.. but sometimes, when the passcode have a "zero" char it don't works.. but just sometimes.
I'm really glad that it worked, because i got it from eBay and spent R$130,00, (almost 50,00 United state dollars) because of the importation taxes of brazil..
bluetooth cryptography?
could you be more specific. You have an LG MS25, a windows mobile phone. Where did you find these settings to disable?
edit: i found a link explaining something about this, but I can't find the setting
http://xdaflameusers.com/viewtopic.php?id=98
Also, an update.
When presented with the passkey on the phone. I click next, then I must click the enter key on the phone. The phone than accepts the connection, but puts the keyboard in disconnected devices.
That's it.
I don't have any services listed under the "select services to use from this device" for the keyboard.
the problem is the bluetooth stack i think..
ms25 is the same of KS20.. widcomm bluetooth stack i think..
I've recently bought a HTC touch Viva (opal).. and I was havin problems to connect (never happens after input the key on keyboard) , and the bluetooth stack is that one from Microsoft.. so after some research i've decided to try the BlueInput 1.5 RC4.. it's not a freeware.. =/ but it works perfectly.. i think it'll work on diamond too!
