Hi,
does anybody know, if the TomTom Navigator work on an MDA2. I've got my MDA2 since monday and i am not able to get TomTom Navigator (Version2 incl. the newest Updates) running. The installation-process works fine, but if I start the installed software, I get the lovely circling wheel in the middle of the screen...and that's all...hmmm...so, does anybody got a working installation of tomtom2 on an MDA2 or an XDA2 ???
Next question:
Does anybody have experiences with a Bluetooth-GPS-Mouse on a MDA2 (maybe this question is not very important, if the answer of the question above will be nefative ;-)
greets from frankfurt / germany

There's a thread on Bluetooth GPS and the XDA II/MDA II (http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3341)
in which there is an answer to both your questions.
Haven't seen anything new lately on either topic:
- Tom Tom with any kind of GPS
- Bluetooth GPS
I had the same problem, then I tried a different SD (128 instead of 256) card for map storage and it works. I remember TomTom having the same problems with Ipaq 5450’s until HP issued a fix.
I’ve just ordered a Bluetooth GPS.. Looks like I’ve got more problems ahead.

Please keep us informed, regardless if the Bluetooth GPS fails or not..
By the way: I read a review of the new Toshiba E800 PDA (which has a 480x640 screen :shock: and beautiful indigo color (finally something else)) and the author mentioned testing the PDA with a Rikaline Bluetooth GPS receiver.
At first, he had difficulties connecting the Toshiba and the Rikaline, but managed to solve it by setting TomTom to 'Bluetooth Card' instead of 'COM6'.....
Might be worth a try :?:
Take care :!:
There is no 'Bluetooth Card' setting on Navigator 2.
I still can't get it to work.
Help!

:roll: I guess it has to do with the Bluetooth Manager of the Toshiba then...
Nothing left but wait for Tom Tom updates and more MDA2 Bluetooth profiles
Somebody101, will you try something, install maps to main memory and see if that works, I know you can only install a portion but I would be interested to hear the results.
I write this in German - please translate it !!! Its to late for me to translate ....

The following problems exist still:
If TomTom is sent into the background, the Bluetooth connection is terminated. When starting of ToTom however automatically again one connects.
The Headset does not run yet.
Please, don't make a Hardreset ! I mean a Softreset !

After having a closer look at it, I know now what the Bluetooth Enabler does:
- HKLM\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\BtConfig\Services\0005
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
- HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev
"Dll"="BtCeIf.dll"
Interestingly, this is also what's in JoseF's registry settings posted on page 3 of this thread. In towa's settings on the same page, Services\0005 has an "Enabled" setting of 0.
Anybody with a Bluetooth Headset wants to give it a try? If it still doesn't work, we probably should have a closer look at JoseF's registry settings.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will lika to say that I have the headset paired when I did the copy of the registry. If it can be any help.

I have a headset.
Pairing is ok.
But the phoneapplication doesnt switch to the headset.
Still working......

Thats exactly what I get! Though I haven't tried the reg settings JoseF
suggested yet.
It interesting that in the connection manager you can connect to the headset, and it rings when you do!
I'm even more sure that all is needed is a simple reg change to get the phone to switch to headset when it rings or when you call.

Thanks axbl
Navigator now works... I don't care about the headset....NAVIGATOR WORKS :lol: :lol:

I don't carea bout navigator! I need to have headset and ability to use my BT access point
Ok here is a solution from tes (http://www.ppc-welt-community.info/Community/showthread.php?s=&threadid=37232)
So, if you don't delete the Microsoft-Bluetooth entries and don't make a new entry in the autostart you can start the Bluetooth-Stack you need. For navigation, use the widcomm.
For Headset, use the Microsoft.
If you disable the bluetooth, you can switch around.
Tahnks, tes
So, widcomm stack doesn't support BT profile the way MS does?
I guess, I'll wait for an officila update. I really value having BT headset.
you have to wait until next CeBit in Germany !
@axbl
Hi, I have tried the switch around , most times it don´t work.
I might do the wrong way.
I can´t read German so I don´t understand the forum.
Regards
JoseF
Thanks to all who have put the time in to make the Widcom BT stuff work on the XDAII, it certainly does work.
If you really want to run both the Widcom and the MS stuff then you can do it this way. Don't put either shortcut into the StartUp folder. Instead, create a new folder (called BT for example) under Start Menu\Programs and put the two shortcuts in there. Then, neither runs at startup and you select which one to run whenever you want it. You still have to reset the device to change the BT software but this way it has worked every time for me so far.
Thanks NickP
JoseF
Just had time to play around with the two BT stacks.
The good news is that you can actually have both running at the same time!
The bad news is only one can be enabled at any one time.
But this means that you can have both icons in the bottom right corner.
To switch on the headset : Turn BT off on Widcomm(W), turn BT on on MS, and then enable the headset.
To switch back to W turn BT off on MS, then turn BT on on W.
And thats all you have to do!
So not an ideal solution but a pretty workable one I thnk!
Hi ´just you day it is not an ideal solution but a pretty workable.
I did not need to reset the device. I have been driving 1 hour.
Change to bt headset at a custumer 30 min.
Turning back to bt Widcomm 45 min with gps.
At home back bt headset without reset. Its okey at the moment.
JoseF
Further to this you can actually have both shortcuts in the startup dir.
But this will only work on a soft reset if the W Stack is disabled before you do it, (MS stack can be enabled or disabled).
Also when you apply the enable reg settings (in the other BT GPS forum), on the W BT browser you get a new option called 'headset'!
Though even if I get my headset paired and hooked up as a headset it doesn't work at all.
Excellent job
Thank you very much for all the effort that has gone in to fixing HTC/O2 development problems. I now can use my Fortuna BT GPS reciever with my XDA II with Tom Tom, also I can use my Ericson BT Headset. Unfortunatly not at the same time but it is great to be able to have the funcionality of both. For my next battle will be to get it unlocked so when I am in Spain I can use my Spanish SIM. So far I have been told nope we won't unlock it but I tell them it is not legal and that they have already done it for others but still keep quoting we had a meeting a month ago and was told under no circumstances will we unlock them so thinking of sending it back and buying one from Expansys which are european versions and are UNLOCKED. :twisted:

Its a bit off topic, but I've heard that if you pay for all 12 months subscription in advance they can unlock it for you. Not sure how much of this is true though.
Not according to the supervisor I spoke to he was having none of IT. Said no way under any circumstances still I am not bothered played with it for a few days and will send it back there loss of contract and I will buy one from Expansys. :roll:
Hi Guys
Before you go and spend your money on tom tom 5, if you have an xda2i it's not compatible and tom tom won't supoort it. I've only found this out after buying the tt5 upgrade.
I can't get it to see the gps device on outgoing com port 6 on my xda2i.
Got a Fortuna Clip On BT GPS
Lost all the will to live with this now, feel like selling my xda2i.
Any help before it goes on ebay?
thanks
jase
Just got TomTom 5 for my XDA IIi as well. I've got the wired TT GPS receiver and all I get is no GPS device. I've set TT to the right receiver type but can't see anyway of changing the com port to use.
Any ideas? or like you am I screwed
I have an xda2i with TT5 and BT GPS receiver...works fine.
Or at least as good as with TT3. TT5 seems to turn off BT once it's been closed though, bit annoying.
Didn't have any problems with installing it though.
Ant
Ant
Which BT GPS Receiver are you using?
Can you go through which settings in TT5 did u use, what's your outgoing com port etc.
Thanks
jase
does this thread works for You?

I'm thinking to mget the qtek2020i as wel with the tt5
Hi Goldenhands
I'll give it a go.
Thanks
I've tried this and it doesn't work.
Bluetooth app locks my outgoing com port to port 6. Does this need to be changed?
Thanks

untick recieve all incoming beams under connections
It was already unticked mate.
I have a QTEK 9090 with a BT antenna from TT3.
I simply installed TT5 over TT3 and everything worked right away.
Only problem is that in many screens, the onscreen keyboard is missing so I have to use the slideout keyboard. I expect them to fix that but it's really not that big a problem.
you have an xda2-s?
tom tom 5 is compatible with that but the xda2i isn't according to tom tom.
I am running Tom Tom 5 with the GreatBritain-Map on and XDA 2i with an "Aktronix" Bluetooth GPS reciever and it works absolutly with no problems whatsoever
My GPS reciever isnt paired and uses COM 6:
Tom Tom turns the bluetooth on by itself so my bluetooth is set to off usually.
I dont have a bluetooth headset.
Hi Danny
You saying that you didn't pair your gps receiver in with your xda2i first in the bluetooth manager?
Thanks
tomtom5 and xda2i
Have aked tomtom if it is a problem ,since have ordered upgrade,will let you know the response!
ok was just a suggestion ,as mine works fine ,with the phone off ,i got it to work perfectly with phone on made a call updated traffic until i put the phone in it's cradle and the gps locked it all up from then on
just had a look on TOMTOM site for unsupported devices for TTN5 here is the list
The following devices are not compatible with NAVIGATOR 5:
* Fujitsu Siemens (all models)
* Toshiba (all models)
Siemens SX 56
Acer N10
Eten P700
Mitac Mio 558
PackardBell Pocket Gear 3025
ViewSonic V37
Yakumo DELTA 300 , DELTA 400
ASUS MyPal (these do not have SD capabilities)
* We are working on achieving compatibility with the Toshiba and Fujitsu Siemens devices by Autumn 2005. For technical reasons, NAVIGATOR 5 will unfortunately not be made compatible for the other devices on the list.
the link is
http://www.tomtom.com/shop/upgrade.php?action=pda&TT=24170bb816956c251a093199d55d42ea
So i am abit confused when you say TOMTOM 5 is not compatible. I have also emailed TOMTOM i awaiting their reply, i will post it on here once i get it.
I dont have a XDA IIi i have a XDA II .. i was thinking of upgrading to the XDA IIi but now i shall wait and see.

TOMTOM 5 Might be able to help you out IMPORTANT
Hi Guys & Gals!.. right might be able to help here... ive got a magician and I got tomtom 5 on saturday... I have the original bluetooth TOMTOM GPS and I had Tomtom 3 on the pda, I uninstalled tomtom 3 and then installed tomtom 5.. and it connected to the bluetooth reciever. Then I went off thinking it would work and it didnt connect (no GPS found), so I reintstalled again did all the bonding int bluetooth manager, and it still didnt work... so I did a hard reset which was a pain but then reinstalled tomtom 5 again.... went to work and it still didnt work so I was in the car messing about trying to get it to bond and did it all again and it didnt work!...
So just got to work (HERES THE IMPORTANT BIT) and went up to my mate whos a techie currently building the largest Oracle solution in the world) and said look this blinking things not working.. so he started proding the screen with the pen all over the place mumbling as he does and hey presto the screen was in the GPS status screen were it shows all the satelite data and he touched the bit thats says NO GPS device (its not a box its just the text) and it then came up to reset the device to finish installation and hey presto it worked!!!!! ....
SO try this if it works the bloke is a genius !....and TOMTOM have a serious floor in there software.
Post on here your findings :lol: I keep checking it every 5 mins to see if its connecting and it is fine now.. SO FAR!
Having said that
Having said what ive just said... ive just turned it on and its now doing it again and not finding the module... dont believe it! it seems very wierd... let me know your thoughts please!
Having said that again.. ive now changed to a wired one in the configuration and selected it then gone back to the bluetooth one waited 60 seconds and clicked on the no gps device again which has reset the device and its working again! wierd.......!
I've tried both Helmis and Ibashas 3.5 ROMS and they are brilliant, but I have one issue with both that I cannot solve.
How do I configure TT6 with BT GPS - I also use a BT headset.
Tried to follow the "old" TT5 manual for Universal and TT5 from this forum, but I cannot select outgoing port to 8.
I've tried outgoing port to 4 and program port 5 and it works ok.
Problem arises when I pair my BT headset also, if it is switched on, when I start TT there is no connection to the GPS, and consequently TT cannot find any satelittes.
Switch off the headset and restart TT and everything is fine again.
A few times it has happened that I get the BT pairing dialog box up after a while with TT started (headset on!) and has entered the passkey again.
So I wonder what settings I should use to be able to use both BT headset and TT6 with a BT antenna, anyone seen/solved this??????
I've tried 2 dif. BT headsets and 2 diff. GPS mice with both ROMS.
Best regards
/Henrik
Nobody experienced this or know how to solve it?
Waiting....
Ok, so nobody knows?
I will try on Buzznet then.

I read in tom tom website, tom tom 6 is not compatible with all device. For example in my case, I use O2 XDA II . Unfortunately tom tom 6 doesn't work with my device so I still use tom tom 5.21
Actually TT6 works exceptionally well with your device, which is the same as mine! - If it wasn't for this BT headset issue that is, it actually think it runs faster and smoother than it does on my JasJar!
But if you want to run it in landscape mode, you have to have either WM 2003 2. edition or even better WM5 in order to be able to use landscape (TT6 doesn't have that facility anymore).
And then you get the issue with the BT headset, which I reckon someone must know how to solve, even if it is a bit strange, nobody gives me any answers, not here and not on XDA-Developpers.
I would so much like to know if this is a known issue with this device and WM5, or if it is too trivial a question for anyone to bother to answer??????

TomTom 6 works perfectly on my xda 2, you are obviously on about the backlight issue, which can be fixed easily
Ok, but can you use a BT headset also?????

Hi.
Just installed TTN 7.915 (9196) qvga blue (for pda) and it's working perfectly on my Tornado (spv C600) with WM5.1! Installed last map (v835) too.
The only issue is that the screen is turning OFF after 1 min (my timing setting to turn OFF when on batt power).
