After I install MS Voice Command 1.6 US, I encounter 3 problems.
1. The Treo bluetooth plugin doesn't work properly. When it connects to a bluetooth headset or any device, it maintains the color blue as if it is not connected.
2. I use a GlobalSAT bluetooth GPS unit & I require GPS proxy to create a virtual port. Without the installation of VC 1.6, I can link to virtual comm port 2, however once I install VC 1.6, the device says I don't have a free comm port. Originally both comm 2 & 9 can be used. Since then, both comms cannot be used as virtual ports for GPS proxy. GPS proxy version is 2.2.
3. Bluetooth DUN doesn't work... period.
If someone has experience with this & has found a solution, pls help.

I have upgraded from a SP3 to a SP5 and now find that my BT gps a Polstar PBT-111 no longer works
i can bond with it but always get a little yellow ? next to it.. so i assume that the services can not be seen??
does anyone know of a work around??
Did you create a com bt port on your sp5 to communicate with the gps?
(bluetooth settings, menu, com ports)
Anybody have an HP (Compaq) nc6400 laptop? It has built-in BT but doesn't appear to support PAN. WOuld the best idea be to buy a BT Dongle that does support it adn turn off the built-in one?
Prob is BT Stack
I had an HP NC6200 and the problem is in the BT Stack. Remove the software that came with the HP and install the MS drivers/stack and once the install completes, the option to "Join a Personal Area Network" will be available.
Just an aside....i dont prefer the MS BT Stack but in this case I know it works because my Dell has a Toshiba BT Stack and I had to do the same thing. Widcomm BT Stack is my preference.

OK, thanks for your help. Will give it a go. i guess the MS drivers are available on the MS site?
uninstalled the HP bt software but not sure where to find or how to install the MS stack?
OK, I've given up on the in-built BT. Got a BT USB dongle and Blue Soleil. Now PAN works and I can use my Hermes as a 3G modem.
good so far....
but how do you get ActiveSync to work over BT? Is it possible?
It would be much cheaper and easier just to download/buy Bluesoleil software from IVT - it works with all dongles, also with BT device you have inside your HP laptop.
yeah - it works with my dongle but not with the inbuilt device.
How do i get ActiveSync to work over BT?
If you disconnect the new dongle and install fresh demo from IVT website, Bluesoleil and then activate the built-in BT, it will work. Until you will buy license, there will be 5MB data limit.
I use BlueSoleil it with my built-in dongle from HP (nc6000).
ActiveSync is possible using virtual COM port on Bluetooth. There is sometimes ActiveSync service in some Bluetooth stacks, but I think IVT doesn't support it. If you want to use BT directly, you might need to switch to MS Bluetooth or Widcomm stack. Don't ask me how - never used MS stack.
BTW: there should be update for your Widcomm stack for your laptop - I think Bluetooth PAN is now standard (but painful to use with Widcomm).
When I try this the HP Wireless assistant takes over and BlueSoleil says "please insert your BT device".

OK, no probs. I put it in Hermes WM6 because of the requirement for Internet Sharing after I upgraded to WM6 and therefore needed PAN but I accept that it is more of a general issue
I had no problem pairing with my Holux 236slim external GPS but cannot locate the GPS when scanning for it using the Holux GPS View software, nor does MS Livesearch locate the GPS. Livesearch asks for a com port and I've tried them all with no success. Does anyone know which comport the Treo 750 should use? And what about the remote GPS settings which ask for both "program" and "hardware" com ports (which cannot be the same)?
The way that I understand it (from messing around, mostly) is that the "external GPS" program allows "sharing" of the BT signal by multiple programs. Here's what I did.
1) Pair the GPS via Bluetooth.
2) Set the GPS up as a comm port - BT, Settings, COM Ports, New Outgoing Port. I set my GPS up as COM 8, secure.
3) Next, go into the External GPS application. Set up the "Program" port as the port you'd like to scan from the mapping application - I used COM 0. Set up the "Hardware" port to match what you did in step 2 - in my case, COM 8, 4800 baud. Check the box on the "Access" page so you can share the BT GPS signal.
From whatever application you're using (Google Maps, WLS, or other), set up the application to look for the GPS on the "Program" comm port, in my case, COM 0. I've had WLS, GMM, and a program called "Beeline GPS" running all at the same time, sharing the same GPS.
Hope this helps,
-Craig
Thanks very much for your help!
Your solution worked like a charm -- thanks very much for your help. I used the same settings in External GPS. I'm using with Livesearch maps and that worked fine.
Try "Com 0", thats what I use with Tom Tom!
Hello,
I've the following problem. I've a MDA Pro with WM6. It's a german Maxstegi 4.7, but I tried 2 differnt ROMs from your board but my problem persists.
Bluetooth is activated and working. This I checked with a Siemens HHB-750 A2DP Audiotransmitter. Then I tried to connect my i747
http://www.transystem.com.tw/p-gps-iblue747.htm
and googlemaps, wififofum and Tomtom can't find it, regardless of every combination of settings in external GPS and Bluetooth. The funny thing is that Navigon detected the GPS on COM1: serial cable but wasn't running because of memory problems. I checked the gps mouse with my laptop and it's running fine.
My question now: Has anyone this gps running on a Universal with WM6 or does anyone know about problems with the bluetooth stack and how to correct it, or which GPS via Bluetooth works somewhere with Tomtom?
Thanks
Alsaya
I have 727 and universall and WM6.0 (but french FLA242). no problme just have to do partenership and open a com port (for tomtom and universal it's com4. uncheck secure connect
@stephane.papin
Hello Stephane, I tried com4 with and without external GPS - no success. Secure connection is unchecked. Any more suggestions, please.

I've Radio 1.17. Is Bluetooth a function of radio? Will 1.18 help?
Thanks

Hi Mr Joe,
I've tried to use Tomtom 7 with wwe 03 and same problem.
The only way to use it that i've found is to download GPS proxy on this site :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gpsproxy/
You had to add a outgoing port in your GPS BTH (port 6 by exemple)
With gps proxi , you've to create a virtual port 4 (automatically) and via the option, configure entry port 6 and outgoing port n° 4.
with tomtom, u choose port 4 for you GPS and it's works.
hi thank you for your swift reply
i tried as mentioned above and gps proxy says
the nmea input provider failed to start creatfile failed 55
lol still pulling hair out i must have spent about 60 hours searching forums and diffrent apps
after uninstalling gps proxy i reinstalled gps proxy to find error on screen saying i needed opennetcf.sdf.ppc.arm.cab im still searching for this file lol
every time i try install gps proxy it say you need blah blah file befor it will work i keep downloading these diffrent files and installing them then keep uninstalling gpsproxy 2.2. then again and again .......... im so frustrated all i want is tomtom 7 up and running with my gps device. is there anybody who has wwE 05 FOR 64MB DEVICE who has not had to spend approx 65 hours trying diffrent roms diffrent apps to get tomtom 7 working?????????????????anyone know what other files are needed in wwe 05 64 mb device to run gpsproxy????????????? anyone have a list or even a simply way?
OK I FOUND FILES HERE http://sourceforge.net/projects/gps...6/GPSProxy-1.6-ARMV4-NoInstaller.zip/download
I INSTALLED BUT I KEEP GETTING
THE NMEA IMPUT PROVIDER FAILED TO START: CREATFILE FAILED :55
ANYBODY ANY IDEAS?
STARTING TO THINK AM I JUST BEST TO INSTALL WM 2003
How can i close posts?
i tried this with gps proxy....
i have a bluetooth gps mouse from nokia...
model: ld 1w
I pair my magician with the mouse.....after that i set the gps mouse to comport 6.
Now i run gpsproxy and setup my device:
i add Virtual port com4
in nmea i use for incoming port 6
then i set outgoing port to port 4...
the i push start...
then come "fix typ: invalid"
any idea??
i found 'igo8' to work best on magician.
i use a blue-tooth gps, use standard gps port with the rom, done. no issues and quick.
i can still use my bluetooth car hands free at same time too.
(wwe rom 3.06)
I too have problems with my external GPS (sold under T-Mobile NaviGate Bluekit III mouse, but it's Leadtek under the hood) under WWE_O5 , but I think it's more related to the Bluetooth stack
here's what I did
-> add new device
-> Leadtek Bluetooth GPS shows up, next
-> Passcode is prompted, 0000, next
-> Device added, your pocket PC has connected with Bluetooth GPS
everything is fine up till this point, now the GPS shows up under "disconnected"
Now when I single tap it to turn on Serial Port, save and connect it say
CAnnot connect, your device did not connect With Leadtek Bluetooth GPS. The connection failed or the passcode is incorrect
I'm pretty sure it's not the GPS itself since it ran fine with the vanilla firmware
This is pretty much the only thing that keeps me from fully enjoying the rom, though
Hello
I'm in the same situation as you. I have tried a large number of settings to get TonTom/ to connect to my BT GPS ( I've tried Holux 236slim firmware 3.1.0, Holux236slim Firmware 3.1.1, Holux1000B). None of them are identified by TomTom. I have also tested a handfull of other GPS applications without any problems, they are running perfect. I,ve resetted all GPS's to factory basis, I've modified baudrates, S/N and so on without sucess. tested with and w/O WM "external GPS"-program. The "external GPS" does anyhow transfer the correct comport to Tomtom.
No sucess. No sucess.
By trying the other GPS alternativs inside Tomtom gps-configuration, I've ben able to for a second been capable to get the GPS signal.
-Something is wrong inside WM6.5 , S100 or Tomtom.
P-O
Edit
After first removing all setting for BT then removing the main battey, getting low capacity in back up battery, reinstalling BT-GPS ( Holux m1000b) i've got the Tontom to connect to the GPS. I've used the port (in Tomtom GPS konfiguration) given by the BT-setting, com 7 in my case. It failed when chozing the port given by the "external GPS#
The installation is not stable. after shutting down the S100 and restarted. It failed and I had to remove main battery again. Now its working.
I do not dare to test with another GPS yet.
P-O
Second edit
I have sucessfully connected all my GPS decvices. Anyhow the connection to Tomtom is more unstable on the magician then on my other phones (Wizard and Herald with WM6.1). Unstable in my case means: loss of connection, have to reinstall GP-device and reboot. Anyhow. I have beiing driving 400 km today without any problems.
