I had been using iGuidance4 on my old Samsung i730 off a 4GB SD Card. It worked very well . I used it syncing with a BT iTrekM5+ BT GPS Receiver (MTK Chipset) in my wife's car and with a Parrot 3400 LS-GPS (it is an intergrated Hands free BT and GPS receiver).
I have recently upgraded my phone to a HTC Touch Cruise and am using iGuidance4 now on a 6GB MicroSDHC card. It works flawlessly with my Parrot and iTrek Receivers.
The problem that I am having is that iGuidance4 is barely working with the Touch Cruise inbuilt GPS. The phone runs on a Qualcomm MSM7200 (Chipset) @ 400MHz,and has bulit in GPS. The iGuidance program works in fits and starts with a very, very long lag time while running, so as to render the program unusable.
I thought that there may be a problem with the intergrated GPS on the phone, but I don't think that this is the case, because the inbuilt intergrated GPS of the Touch Cruise works perfectly with both Google Maps and Microsoft Live Search.
I wonder if anyone might have any thoughts
or suggestions on this problem.
I have also posted this on the PDAPhoneHome website (http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/pdaphone-discussion/100265-iguidance-4-htc-touch-cruise-polaris.html)

I would like to hear any updates on your problem as I intended to use iGuidance as well, mainly for its Text-To-Speech and Navteq maps.
Does anyone else have any other experience of getting iGuidance 4 to work with Touch Cruise? There seems to be a workaround using GPSGate described in pdaphonehome, but is this the only way to get it working?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
On the TC, open iGuidance, go to Tool, then GPS Options, then COM Port, and select Com4
Then, go to the same area and set the Baud Rate to 9600.
If for some reason you've changed your settings, on your TC go to the Start Menu, Settings, System, and then click on External GPS to find out what your settings are.

Is it possible to use the integrated GPS in the Topaz as an external bluetooth GPS device for a laptop or an iPod Touch 2G?
Thanks in advance!

Yeah and it works great. Just install this

Thanks for that.
Unfortunately the iPod Touch cannot utilise a BT GPS unit! Hopefully some kind developer over that way will put something together
Hi everyone
I was wondering if it's possible to use a WM GPS phone as an external bluetooth GPS device for another WM phone?
I just got a WM phone without GPS built in and before I buy an external GPS device, I'd like to test the navigation possibilities, using one of my other wm phones with built in GPS as a BT GPS device.
Thanks for your attention
Not possible? :-(
Hi, I own an HTC UNIVERSAL with windows mobile 5.0 original rom and I use to play on it tomtom navigator using an external gps via bluetooth. I would like to know if it is possible to connect also an handsfree so I can answer calling meanwhile driving. Is it possible or it made conflict?
Thanks in advance
I used to have a HTC Wizard and used it with Bluetooth Carkit and GPS Mouse at the same time. It was also running WM5.0, so your Universal should be able to do it also!
Thank you...I will buy an handsfree then.
I bought handsfree and get paired. But when I start external gps it request me to pair and when I pair it disconnect the handsfree. Please can you help with some fix.
It is an HTC Universal win mobile 5.0
I have a simple question. Is it possible to connect 2 different Bluetooth devices at the same time with Inspire 4G Andoid 2.3? I am trying to use aLapRecorder and need an external Bluetooth GPS module (internal GPS sucks) and a OBDII Bluetooth module to make this program perfect. http://www.adyno.net TIA!
