XDA2i How to turn off the Phone

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.
Tom Tom 3
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

Can I turn internal GPS on/off?

In the Comm Manager I have options of [ON/OFF] for Airplane Mode, Phone, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, MS Direct Push and Data Connection.
Should there be an option for GPS? Is there an option elsewhere?
Thanks,
Slarti
it's done automatically by the applications that use it.
you open a GPS application, it turns GPS on.
You close the application, it turns GPS off.
no need for a switch , cos if you don't want to use it, you wouldn't have any GPS software installed.

VDA GPS (Toshiba G710) - GPS activation

Hi,
I could not find a menu item to toggle GPS on or off.
Is this permanently activated?
I would like to switch it of in case I don't need it...
Windows Mobile handles GPS automatically. It is off, unless some application is connected to it.

Bluetooth connection abort in standby

Hi there,
I'm using my old Nexus 5 for navigation. Each time when the phone is going to standby, the bluetooth connection (tethering by another phone) get lost.
Is there a solution to avoid this?
Bluetooth timeout is one of the most common reasons Bluetooth is turned off without warning. By default, after about 10 minutes of being idle, your device will usually go into "standby" mode to conserve power. This turns the screen off and removes certain connections, like Bluetooth.
Is there anybody possibility to change the timeout? I can't find this option in developers options.
Guaranteed not to be found under Developer Options.
Not all devices will let you control when your Bluetooth turns itself off automatically.
Every smartphone or device is different when it comes to setting Bluetooth connections and connectivity preferences. You can usually find instructions on how to alter your Bluetooth online by searching for your phone model.
