Try this Toshiba BT stack and works... OK ....

But 2Mb... Just too big...
The following is the TXT flie included in this this...
I download it from russian site... I really wanna know where does it originally from....
-------------------------------
BT Stack for XDA II mini
Can run on Xda II Mini without change your MSBT
1. disable your MS BT (Don't need to remove it)
2. Download driver from Toshiba (Toshiba BT Stack)
http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/pages/disclaimer.php?dt=bts&download=4us
3. Connect your mini with active sync.
4. Install the driver.
5. Soft Reset your device.
Optional
6. Remove your MS BT
by deleting this registry key
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\BTIcon]
then reboot.
If you don't wish to remove the key, you can disable it by editing this parameter value under the registry key
change
"Dll"="BTIcon_Dll.dll" to
"Dll"="BTIcon_Dll.dll.disabled"
then reboot. When WM2003SE tries to load the Dll driver, it can't find it and therefore the MS BT system tray icon will not be activated.

Does that stack include the A2DP profile?
Any improvements over the MS stack?

the question is, is it different from the official toshiba distribution? is it more stable? or is it the same game with bt going offline after turning the ppc off/on

Its the same
It still turns off bluetooth is standby/off mode.

TomTom Bluetooth GPS Ports WM5 Working Setup 100% Easy !

First of all I would like to say thank you to "thereaperman" from Modaco Frums for this great help ! I took this from him and making it accessible to this forum easily for others to use !
Here are his steps:
STEP 1 : INSTALL TOMTOM5
You do this by copying the CAB files from the CDROM (eg F:\PocketPC) to the K-JAM and launch one by one from there with the explorer of the K-JAM
.
You can install voices the same manner by copying the CAB files to the K-JAM (eg from F:\Voice on the CDROM)
STEP 2 : UPGRADE TO V5.1
EDIT: Please use the tomtom official site to obtain the update here
STEP 3 : ACTIVATE THE GPS CONTROL PANEL
Fire up a registry editor (eg http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml )
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\ControlPanel\GPS Settings
Delete the DWORD marked "hide"
Add a DWORD called "Group" and give it the value of "2" (dec)
The GPS panel will now show up in your connection settings.
STEP 4 : INSTALL TOMTOM5
1. Establish a bond with your GPS and select the checkbox for serial access.
2. In BT, select the OUTGOING port to 6.
3. In the GPS control panel, select the GPS program to 0 and make sure that the hardware one, is set to None.
4. Start TT5 and the GPS settings, select another bluetooth GPS, and you will see COM 0 free. Select COM 0 and close TT5.
5. At the GPS control panel again, now select COM 6 (before we set it up at 0).
6. At BT: select OUTGOING port to 0.
7. Back again to GPS control panel and select NONE.
8. Finally start TT5 and it should connect automatically. Wait for a couple of seconds and click the GPS settings and you should see it has connected.
FOR THE WIZARD or IF NOT WORKING ON YOUR DEVICE TRY:
6. At BT: select OUTGOING port to WHATEVER NUMBER IS AVAILABLE EXCEPT 6.
7. Back again to GPS control panel and select NONE.
8. Finally start TT5 and
CHANGE GPS BT PORT SETTINGS TO WHATEVER NUMBER YOU CHOSE IN STEP 6
it should connect automatically. Wait for a couple of seconds and click the GPS settings and you should see it has connected.
Hope this helps all of you !!!

On wich sdio gps device is this based on ?

thanks, i'll try this once i get my gps receiver

I'm having issues accessing the correct com ports for my ATOM to connect TomTom to satelites.
I load and can see the GPS, however when I try to pair the devices from TomTom I only have com ports 2, 3, 4, and 9 available, which my PDA will not connect to.

GPS Intermediate driver with external Bluetooth GPS device

Hi Forum,
well the Diamond (Touch) Pro's internal GPS device isn't really good.
Therefore I wanted to use my other Bluetooth device for Navigational Tools.
Pairing the external BT GPS and setting it to Com: 2 wasn't a problem and I can read the data when accessing the port directly on Com: 2.
But I use a few tools that use the Parsed Driver (GPS Intermediate Driver).
So I tried to set the "External GPS" Utility to:
(1st Page)
GPS Program Port: Com 1
(2nd Page)
GPS Hardware Port: Com 2 (as set in Bluetooth settings for the external BT GPS device)
(3rd Page)
Autmatic management: Ticked
But whatever I set on the second page is REVERTED to
GPS Hardware Port:NONE
after clicking OK.
Does anyone know how to manually set my external Bluetooth GPS device as the source for the GPS Intermediate driver ?
And / Or:
How can the internal GPS be turned totally off ?
Any help an that behalf is very much appreciated!!
Regards
Zigster
PS: I translated that GPS description part from my German O2 branded "Diamond Pro", so it might not be totally the same in an English version.

When you say the internal GPS isn't very good, what do you mean? How are you attempting to acquire GPS? In what conditions? Inside? Outside?
In my experience so far with the Raphael, the GPS is pretty good for an embedded device. Will it be as good as a well designed stand-alone receiver? No. But for most navigation I find it to be good enough.

... well the point is, that want to use an external Bluetooth device as an Input source for the GPS Intermediate driver and not the internal GPS device.
The reasons why are somewhat irrelevant, but here are mine:
The internal GPS receiver
1) is laggy (despite all the helpful tips I already tried)
and
2) it is not very sensitive (no indoor reception)
My external BT GPS Receiver (iBT-GPS) is much more accurate (!!!) and very sensitive (Indoor reception) and sometimes it comes in handy to put the reciever into another spot than the phone.
And I can set that device to 5Hz Refresh, if needed.
So thanks for any help !!

Zigster

Hi Forum,
there is a solution for the above problem, but with a sting:
It seems, that the fix produces a heavy cpu load on the diamond or on it's comm port, since the diamond is much less responsive even though CPU load sticks around 40-50 % (which is rather normal).
Here is what I did from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293548 :
To enable this, your smartphone must be application unlocked! (i.e. modify the registration settings)
First setup a comm port for your Bluetooth GPS devices as usual:
Start/Settings/Connections/Bluetooth.
Make sure Bluetooth is set to "On".
Menu/Devices
Menu/New
Select your GPS device from the list and press Next.
Enter the passkey for the Bluetooth GPS.
Next
You should get a message box saying "Your Smartphone has connected".
NOTE: It is important to remember the name of you Bluetooth GPS receiver that was added. Let’s call this variable GPSNAME.
OK
Next
Check the "Serial port" checkbox.
Done
Done
Menu/COM Ports
Select your GPS.
Menu/New Outgoing Port.
Select your device and press Select.
You will see a COM port that has been chosen for your GPS. For example, COM6.
Done
Done
Done
Now your GPS is set up on COM6.
Next setup the GPS Intermediate Driver environment using a registry editor:
Start > File Explorer > Up > Program Files > RegEdit
Navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver]
Select Values > Menu > New Value> DWORD "IsEnabled"=1
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers]
Select > Menu > New Key > GPSNAME
Values > Menu > New Value> DWORD" CurrentDriver=GPSNAME"
Back > Select GPSNAME
Select Values > Menu > New Value> String CommPort=COM6: <------ COMM PORT SETUP ABOVE Done
Select Values > Menu > New Value> String FriendlyName=GPSNAME
Select Values > Menu > New Value> String InterfaceType=COMM
Restart your phone, launch GMM and start the GPS function.
Google Mobile Maps with work now with an external Bluetooth GPS receiver.
Hope to see some comments from you folks ;-)
Greetings
Zigster

Attached is the registry file I created to get it to work for my Qstarz BT-1000X.
Customize the registry file for the device's name and the comm port you set up in the Bluetooth setup as described in zigster's post.
Seems WM's External GPS is either broken, or ODM locked. Use CamerAware Buddy to restart the GPS Intermediate Driver, and voila.

I was having the same trouble, also thought i was having trouble with the bluetooth device list showing the GPS device as disconnected, but that's just because it wasn't in use (or just the way COM BT devs work).
This fix worked, and was easy as heck to apply thanks to the EXE here: Link to thread
I was a little nervous because it was so old and for a different device, but it worked a trick.
Now windows is managing the external bluetooth like it should, and programs seem to connect no problem.
Before, i could set the hardware ports myself in google or tomtom, but if i let windows manage it, it would always use the internal GPS. Now it works great.
Thanks,

Mortscript to install GPS intermediate driver
Here is a mortscript to install GPS intermediate driver over com port and also select which driver to use (installed ones or original one).
It's my first try to script with mortscript, so you better do a backup of the
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\ registry key before trying it.
It also create a registry key:
HKLM\Software\GPSDeviceSelector
where it stores a list of script installed drivers and the orginal "CurrentDriver" value. (CurrentDriver value when the script was run for the first time).
To install intermediate driver you will need to know the exact name of the device as stated in the bluetooth setting, the com port used by the device (also visible in bluetooth settings) and the baud rate of the com port which should be stated somewhere in your GPS device manual.
I did for my HTC HD2 and it works good on that device with the Qstarz Q-1000EX bluetooth GPS.
You will, of course need to install mortscript 4.1 for the script to work:
Feedback welcome!

A701-WWE-6.1.5.2.21109.1.6.0-R75-YouTube by ansar

Dear forum members,
Update for Speaker On fix during a call we can do this:
From Start\Task Manager\regedit we go to: HKLM\Drivers\Speaker
and we change the name value from SPK1: to WAV1:
I will also prepare and upload a small cab to do this registry update.
This is an R75 Rom for Mio A701: WWE-WM6.1-CE-OS-5.2.21109-Build-21109.1.6.0, Mobile Vista R75.
With this rom Mio A701 is capable among many new features to play YouTube videos.
The CE image is based on the Official WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.21109 ( Build 21109.1.6.0 ).
This R75 Rom Version is completely different than previous rom builds, so let see again the details:
1. Memory Management.
.. New memory and storage memory modules have been introduced that speed up all relevant operations and
.... increase the overall device performance.
.. These modules are to support both xip and sys parts of the rom and relevant registry settings are improved.
.. The registry parts i.e. default and user, are completely redesigned and expanded.
.. I believe that this rom is close to 95 percent of the rom of the htc tytn ii device.
2. Power Management.
.. New Power management service has been implemented
.. Backlight.cpl and Power.cpl modules are not redirected to the relevant *.exe in order for new languages to be displayed natively.
.. The backlight.cpl accepts 10 sec, 30sec, 1min, 2min, 3min, 4min and 5min on battery power.
.. All icons of AllInOne are working and one more are included in the icon tray.
.. The so long inactive green battery icon is now working and displays the backlight.cpl module.
... After flashing, as bellow is described, i tested for mane power off and resets and for some days up to now, and is working fine.
... From that icon we change screen's brightness immediately but do not change the backlight timeout.
.. The icon battery in the Task Bar top right is directed to the power.exe module.
... From this module the backlight timeout can be changed and take place immediately at 10sec, 30sec, 1min, 2min, 3min, 4min and 5min.
... Do not change the screen's brightness from this module cause this is vise versa in horizontal direction and a reset is needed for settings to be applied.
3. The Phone
.. Phone is fixed with the implementation of callserv.dll, tkitloader.dll 's and a small in code fix but lot of time to create it.
.. Now in Start\Programs you will see your providers menu lnk, for instance Vodafone Menu (*.lnk)
.. During first rom release it is reported that the fix works in all countries around the world.
.. In phone settings we see many new tabs at the bottom of the screen that allows many new functions.
.. In the last tab you can set automatic call receiving i.e. after 1, 2 or .. rings that is good when driving and bluetooth is enabled.
.. It seems that the radio rom download is possible so we may start cooking the radio rom too.
4. Calls Over Bluetooth.
.. When receiving a call we can activate the phone and voice with one (1) click on the bluetooth device multi task button.
.. After finishing our conversation, we can deactivate the phone again with one (1) click on multi task button.
.. This is valid with the first call only during a bluetooth session.
.. In the second and next calls it is a little tricky and undocumented. Please think of your safety first when driving a car.
.. With one click first we activate the phone receiving and next with a double (quick) click on multi task button we activate voice receiving.
.. Remember that after finishing our conversation, we apply a double click to deactivate voice and then a single click to deactivate the phone.
.. As previously said is safer when driving to enable automatic phone activation after desired number or rings and use a single clicks.
5. Audio Management.
.. All audio functions have been reworked and now you can play:
.. .aac, .3gp, .3g2, .3gpp, .m4a, .m4v, .mp3, .mp4, .wmv, .amr, .rmi, .rv, .ra .rm and .rma audio and video in windows media player.
.. Files with .rm , .rma, .rv and .ra requires Q8real.cab to be installed.
.. I am working for further development in order to include .avi and some more codecs.
.. If a .3gp file is not working in video or audio, you can rename it to .3gpp and test it.
.. The provided Audio Manager includes an audio booster and is required for A2DP stereo listening.
6. Blue Tooth wireless stereo.
.. Wireless Stereo has been reworked and the provided a2dp is almost lag/skip free.
.. It is required to cradle the device in mains power and set it from e-Utility to Super Performance or for no lag/skip with XCPUScalar to 624 MHZ.
.. It was tested with BB-02 wireless stereo head phone with very good results.
.. A2DP Toggle -1.1 of Teksoftco is provided in a cab with very good performance.
.. When driving please follow the rules and stop at the emergency lane when making or receiving a call.
7. Obex over Blue Tooth.
.. Obex File Transport is supported and you can send/receive files with btcrawler, total commander and fexplorer easily.
8. Blue Tooth over Activesync.
.. You can connect your device wireless and have control of all your windows and SD card files.
.. In order to connect we must enable advanced network functionality from Start\Settings\Connections\USB to PC.
.. There is a small procedure in Hacking and Development of how to, if you face a problem.
.. In short we first activesync our device with a USB cable connection and then over bluetooth.
9. WiFi/Wlan Management.
.. New functions and drivers are provided in order to speed up your file transfer operations.
.. I did not test them myself due to a new card delivery delays.
a. D3D drivers.
.. D3D drivers are tested and working as you can test it from Start\Programs\Apps with D3Ddemo, Lights3D and Text3D.
b. User Interfaces.
.. You can have the simple windows mobile, Htc Home, Htc Home Diamond and Manila 2D Sea Dragon interfaces.
.. In the provided VistaLibWWE21109MVR75 library all cabs can be installed manually as desired.
.. A special manual procedure is described bellow in order to have YouTube with the minimum cabs and maximum remaining program and storage space.
.. An SDConfig.txt file is provided with the a simple reset function or we can flash without the SD card in the slot.

... 1. The phone to be connected to our mobile operator
... 2. A fast ADSL line for internet connection and
... 3. To actvesync our device over bluetooth or wi-fi with a PC/Laptop.
... Welcome to the YouTube era with your device first among few devices, and not only.
... Other cabs from Storage Card\VistaLibWWE21109MVR75 directory are optional.
... YouTube needs 10MB free in order to run, so do not over cab your device.
... A good option is to install AudioManager.cab and XCPUScalar.cab for best Audio and extreme A2DP no skip functionality.
Note 1: The new keyboard layout has options for small and big letters
and it is predefined to initial setup of small letters.
Note 2: The key of Windows Player is assigned to Start Menu activation and

- The green for on off the phone
- The Gps ephemeris activation
- The memory
- The bluetooth
- The battery icon for the power.cpl
- The screen rotation button.
More icons can be seen as:
- If XCPUSCALAR is activated three icons are installed, for reset, suspend and xcpuscalar.
- If Task Manager is activated and minimized, a small icon of TM is also installed.
- When buetooth is activated an extra flashing bt icon is installed.
- When activesync over bluetooth is activated another icon is revealed.
Note 9: If Visual GPSce application is installed for Sirf or NMEA protocol then you can have
plenty of screens for almost any gps info. The bottom right flashing icon is green when fix is made
and can be blue when differential gps signal is received, depending on differential satellites found.
Note a: The S2U2 is redesigned and starts automatically when SDConfig.txt option is selected.
From Start>Programs>Apps>S2u2 Settings you can set up S2U2 when the cab is installed manually.
Note b: From Start>Programs>Apps you can test D3D drivers that can achieve more than 50 fps.
There are three apps as D3DMdemo, Lights3D and Text3D.

.. As previously said is safer when driving to enable automatic phone activation after desired number or rings and use a single clicks.
5. Audio Management.
.. All audio functions have been reworked and now you can play:
.. .aac, .3gp, .3g2, .3gpp, .m4a, .m4v, .mp3, .mp4, .wmv, .amr, .rmi, .rv, .ra .rm and .rma audio and video in windows media player.
.. Files with .rm , .rma, .rv and .ra requires Q8real.cab to be installed.
.. I am working for further development in order to include .avi and some more codecs.
.. If a .3gp file is not working in video or audio, you can rename it to .3gpp and test it.
.. The provided Audio Manager includes an audio booster and is required for A2DP stereo listening.
6. Blue Tooth wireless stereo.
.. Wireless Stereo has been reworked and the provided a2dp is almost lag/skip free.
.. It is required to cradle the device in mains power and set it from e-Utility to Super Performance or for no lag/skip with XCPUScalar to 624 MHZ.
.. It was tested with BB-02 wireless stereo head phone with very good results.
.. A2DP Toggle -1.1 of Teksoftco is provided in a cab with very good performance.
.. When driving please follow the rules and stop at the emergency lane when making or receiving a call.
7. Obex over Blue Tooth.
.. Obex File Transport is supported and you can send/receive files with btcrawler, total commander and fexplorer easily.
8. Blue Tooth over Activesync.
.. You can connect your device wireless and have control of all your windows and SD card files.
.. In order to connect we must enable advanced network functionality from Start\Settings\Connections\USB to PC.
.. There is a small procedure in Hacking and Development of how to, if you face a problem.
.. In short we first activesync our device with a USB cable connection and then over bluetooth.
9. WiFi/Wlan Management.
.. New functions and drivers are provided in order to speed up your file transfer operations.
.. I did not test them myself due to a new card delivery delays.
a. D3D drivers.
.. D3D drivers are tested and working as you can test it from Start\Programs\Apps with D3Ddemo, Lights3D and Text3D.
b. User Interfaces.
.. You can have the simple windows mobile, Htc Home, Htc Home Diamond and Manila 2D R75 interfaces.

C. Instructions to successfully flash the rom CE image
Here bellows are the instructions to successfully flash it.
Unzip the downloaded file: Mio_A701_ITA_WM6.1.21109.MobileVistaR75_by_ansar.zip
and in the created directory you will have the following:
1. This readme.txt file.
2. The VistaLibITA21109MVR75 directory with the subdirectories:
3. The control text file SDConfig.txt of a single reset instruction.
4. The rom binary image Mio_A701_ITA_WM6.1.21109.MobileVistaR75_by_ansar.bin
Before flashing we make a backup of our files in Storage Card using the Data Backup Program or PIM Backup from my previous roms or your favorite backup.
In case you do not have a backup application install the Backup.cab (is PIMBackup) found in the VistaLibITA21109MVR75 directory.
Use the same backup application you used to save your data in order to recover them after flashing.
Place the VistaLibITA21109MVR75 dir and the SDConfig.txt file in the Storage Card and
flash the Mio_A701_ITA_WM6.1.21109.MobileVistaR75_by_ansar.bin image file as follows:
a. Enter Mio A701 in boot loader menu by pressing and holding Volume UP and then also pressing and holding the Power On button.
.... When led power on, release both buttons and press the navi down key in order to enter to boot loader.
.... Press Navi Down to go to FlashROM Upgrade by USB and press the central Navi key to select this sub menu.
.... Then press Navi Down to go to CE img By USB and press the central Navi key to select this option.
.... Wait to see the message Waiting for image...
b. Check that in a PC/Laptop have unchecked the Allow USB connections option before connecting.

c. Place the Mio_A701_ITA_WM6.1.21109.MobileVistaR75_by_ansar.bin, run ScoterRomUpdate-R01.exe and follow the instructions.
d. After the successful flashing of the rom, in your device select exit, and then:
..... 1. if Uboot 48 is installed in the device, select the Enter Deepsleep option and then perform a Hard Reset.
....... Hard Reset is enabled by pressing and holding Volume Down key and then pressing the power button.
....... When a vibration is activated, release both keys.
..... 2. if not Uboot 48, select WatchDog reset.
e. Remember to tick again the Allow USB connections option in your PC in order to activesync by USB cable connection later on.
The Rom flashing process will perform as follows:
a. Loads all splash screens, performs the welcome screen and displays the initial Today screen.
b. Then loads Mobile_Vista theme and installs the cabs that reside in the rom.
c. Executes the reset instruction of SDConfig.txt and
d. Will finish after machine's final Reset and final boot.
e. The device displays the phone security pin entry procedure and after that enters in Mobile Windows today screen.
f. Now we start the manual cab installation exactly as follows:
... If not already, insert your Storage Card in the side slot and cradle your device to mains power due to the 10sec timeout and to preserve battery.
... With total commander we go to the Storage Card\VistaLibITA21109MVR75 directory and select CabsToWindows directory.
... We find and double click on M2DR75.cab and perform installation in Windows. We reset device by side reset hole using stylus.
... We find and double click on StreamingMedia.cab and again perform installation in Windows. We reset device by click on OK.
... We find and double click on YouTube.cab and do as in previous line.
... We find and double click on R75Files.cab and again perform installation in Windows.
... We Power off the device and then power on again.
... Now everything will be working as designed.
... In order for the YouTube to connect and display we need:
... 1. The phone to be connected to our mobile operator
... 2. A fast ADSL line for internet connection and
... 3. To actvesync our device over bluetooth or wi-fi with a PC/Laptop.
... Welcome to the YouTube era with your device first among few devices, and not only.
... Other cabs from Storage Card\VistaLibITA21109MVR75 directory are optional.
... YouTube needs 10MB free in order to run, so do not over cab your device.
... A good option is to install AudioManager.cab and XCPUScalar.cab for best Audio and extreme A2DP no skip functionality.

plenty of screens for almost any gps info. The bottom right flashing icon is green when fix is made
and can be blue when differential gps signal is received, depending on differential satellites found.
Note a: The S2U2 is redesigned and starts automatically when SDConfig.txt option is selected.
