Hi,
Please can you help, I have had problems with my XDA2i using Tomtom 3. In order for it to work properly I need to turn the phone off whilst maintaining the use of Bluetooth to connect to my Bluetooth GPS.
The question I have is how to turn off the phone whilst maintaining the bluetooth turned On. I know how to turn the phone off using Turn On Flight Mode the problem is this turns off everything, Bluetooth and all!
I have read a post that to turn off the phone I just press the Hang up button for 3 secs, This idea doesn't seem to do anything.
If I turn on the Flight mode then try to turn on the Bluetooth, it says I must turn off flight mode which in turn turns on the phone!
Can you help
Cheers

Can't answer your question other than 1) don't understand why your Tom Tom won't work with the phone on 2) holding the red "end" button for 3 seconds will only disconnect you from GPRS connection.
Your Tom Tom should work with a BT headset, BT GPS and the phone radio on all at once.
Check your set-up and you'll find it works.

I have the same issue if my phone rings whilst using Tom Tom it will stop the navigation system and I have to reset the XDA...I have found that seting flight mode on and then switching it off actually doesn't renable the phone just wifi and bluetooth the phone switches itself on when you make a call..
I thought that was the case, My XDA2i software must be bugged at it re-enables the phone if I do that.
My old XDA2 worked a treat, I just turned on Flight Mode, then Turned it off and the Bluetooth worked and the phone stayed off. To turn the phone on I went into the phone and chose settings it then prompted me for a "do you want to turn the phone on" question.
My New XDA2i doesn't do that, I turn on flight mode, then turn it off and all 3 (wirelss, Bluetooth and Phone) come back on.
If I play around with the XDA2i I can manage to get the phone to stay off but it is problematic.
Any Help?

Ok here is how to do it, ive just done it without having a problem.
1) Start Tomtom with it communicating to the Bluetooth GPS and Phone is on.
2) Whilst tomtom is running turn on flightmode (turning off all Wireless and Phone)
3) Go back into Tomtom and it should have lost its connection to BT you will see it hasn't disabled the GPS though!
4) Turn on BT in the Bluetooth Settings in the settings menu of the XDA2i
5) XDA2i will then pop up a message saying turn off flight mode first, try to close that popup and it will take several seconds whilst it closes the popup.
6) Hey presto the delay was caused by the XDA2i trying to turn on Wirelss with out the Phone.
7) You now have just wirelss on and not the phone.
Let me know if this works for you, it has for me each time.
Cheers

Hi ! I own a brand new Palm Treo 750V, unfortunately there seems to be something wrong with BT. Always when I try to activate BT it is not going to activate. Once out of 50 tries activates the BT, but will lose connection soon. Does anyone has a hint ? Would highly appreciate your comments. thanks dirk
I have the same problem when trying to connect to my Audi's build-in bluetooth phone. All my previous phones work, but the treo 750 seems to give some issues. Everytime it connects to the car for about 1-2 minutes and then it disconnects. The problem is that it wil connect and disconnect over and over and over... therefore setting off a really anoying beep. Hopefully this issue will be fixed with WM6.0
Had this too in the past. When you connect to your car just keep your screen active without keyguard activated.
Thats the way i connect to my car without any trouble.
When i connect the first time to my car and leave the car after a while and try to reconnect it again then often it doesn't connect anymore, but when the screen is active it connects all the time.
Also from time to time my bluetooth doesn't turn on ( on treo), seems like a bug and have to reset the device.
Hi,
When I actavate the wifi on my SPV E650 (vox), and the phone goes in low power mode (screen goes black), after 10 secondes the WIFI disconnect itself (that's OK), but there is a BIP when it does it.
After even when the keyboard is locked, if I press a key the Wifi seems to wake up for a while, then disconnect again and BIP again.
Is there a way to
1) get rid of the BIP
2) avoid the WIFI to try to reconnect when the keyboard is locked ?
If I deactivate the WIFI completly, it stop beeping but then my wifi don't work anymore...
In the power mode of the wifi settings there is an option to have the phone not deactivating WIFI when the screen goes off. But then you have to manually put on / off your wifi.
Unfortunately WIFI drains a lot your battery...

Thanks that could do it.
Actually now I'm manually deactivating the WIFI unless I really want to use it.
But I'm upset that I can't get rid of the beep when the WIFI is deactivated.
I have an HTC Fuze with the stock AT&T firmware. When I try to turn on the Bluetooth radio in the Wireless Manager or through the Control Panel applet, the wait icon shows up for a few seconds, disappears, and the Bluetooth radio stays off. No icon shows up either. A reset makes no difference, and I've tried both with the phone plugged into a power source and running on battery. Cycling the Airplane Mode setting also makes no difference.
I've successfully used Bluetooth in the past (a few weeks ago) and have paired my headset to it before. The Wifi radio does turn on and I can also get both 3G and EDGE data connections, depending on where I am.
Any ideas?
So I just flashed the wife's excalibur with WM6.1, luckily she likes the upgrade, however I have an annoyance I have been unable to figure out.
Whenever the wireless lan is on and connected to my AP, the phone beeps (loudly) when it goes into sleep mode (turns off). I assume this is a notification that it has disconnected from the wireless network. How can I turn off the beep, or possibly change it to a more pleasing sound?
I looked through HKLM\Control Panel\Sounds, but didn't see an entry that made sense for WLAN disconnect.
TIA
BTW, I know how to turn off the auto-disconnect feature, its the beep I want to get rid of.
I am using my Note 20 with my Android Auto WiFi. I am having a unique issue / warning upon connecting to my head unit. When I connect to my head unit I get the warning from my phone, "Internet may not be available......." and I have 2 options, either Keep Wi-Fi connection or Disconnect.
Obviously if I disconnect then I am no longer connected to my cars head unit.
If I click keep connection that is where it gets weird. Under Advanced WiFi I DO have switch to mobile data turned on, I also DO have Mobile data on and my head unit DOES show up under Network exceptions.........
All the above SOUNDS like it would be the right thing.... HOWEVER, when I do that, I have NO DATA at all and obviously it does NOT work.
IF when the warning comes up i just IGNORE it or hit the HOME button and it goes away. WiFi stays connected, DATA stays connected and EVERYTHING works RIGHT!!!! However.... I am tired of having to do that every time I connect. I am sure there is something that I am missing, so I figured that I would ask the smart people. Thanks in advance.
Do you have tethering on?
Nope, no tethering on
