GPS Voice guidance via Bluetooth - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
does anyone know if it is possible to get sat-nav voice guidance via a Bluetooth headset on an O2 XDA Orbit. I bought two of these recently on Ebay. Was kinda hoping I could use them on the bike rather than spend a fortune on a Tom Tom Rider or Garmin Zumo. I've tried this with a Nokia E71 and it works, but I can't get it to work with the Orbit. I'm using Garmin Mobile XT 5.0, but I think the issue is with the Orbit, not the sat-nav software?

all a2dp able headsets should transfer all sounds from the pda to the headset

... Or any PPC with Broadcom Bluetooth Stack (because there is an option in settings that you can tick to route all sistem sounds over bluetooth)

I believe Jabra 250/258 has the best connection insofar.
G2 seems to be good as well.
I understand Nokia BT does not use generic BT standards, and
Sony Ericsson Headsets are erratic.
Cheers.
Thanks Henry,
has anyone tried upgrading the bluetooth stack? Also in Singapore the XDA2 has a decent BT headset in their recent offer, what make is this?
lots of people have upgraded their bluetooth stack well not really upgraded because ms dont have any upgrades
but you can put the vidcomm bluetooth stack on it a lot of people in the forum have don that
You can find the Widcomm stuff here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11729
do you have any instructions for Widcomm, tried to install but kept getting errors for all exe files

Bluetooth Tools JAM compatibility?

I just got my JAM and the MS Stack doesn't work with my Audi MMI System BT. The PDA2K Widcomm stack 1.1 did, but not the JAM. I can partner but no functionality.
Has anyone tried using the MDA II/XDA II BT Tools that helped that devices MS BT Stack with the JAM?
I love the JAM, but the MS Stack has so little menu functions.
yes it works perfect for me ... the same functions in xda2
Having quite same problems with Nokia carkit, after pairing connection dies quickly and doesn't work. Under BT devices menu "set as hands-free" is grayed out and also using bluetooth tools doesn't make difference, the connection screen just disappears quickly when pairing so can't change profile, maybe it's due incompability...
Don't know if it's possible to change BT stack but at the moment this thing sucks...
GPS Navman 4410 on Qtek S100
Sounds like the same problem I have with my GPS-connection (Subject GPS)
Could someone post the Bluetooth Tools file? I can't find it anywhere on my system or on the web.
thanks

Tools doesn't work well on my JAM!
Hi!
I´ve tested the Pocket Bluetooth Tools as well, but it doesn´t worked on my MDA compact (German ROM). When the software was installed, the BT doesnt work anymore.
My special problem is with the Royaltek RBT 3000 and the download of the tracks to the pda. Each time i try this, the connection breaks after 200 waypoints approx. The normal use with the navigation software like TomTom works well.
Looking for a solution.

RSAP (VW) and Tom Tom

Hi all
First post here so apologies if this has already been asked and answered...I haven't been able to find it.
I've just upgraded my O2 Orbit 1 for an O2 Orbit 2 to gain the remote sim access profile (rsap) that my VW Passat's hands-free system needs.
I also have Tom Tom Navigator on my Orbit 2.
Here's the question:
when my phone's paired with the car, I have no problems making or taking calls but when I switch on the Sat Nav, while the connection between the handset and the car doesn't appear to be lost, the phone signal is.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks
John
Hi Guys,
I've got the same problem with my Artemis an the blutooth premium of my golf.
The pairing with the phone is lost when i switch on tomtom.
Did you find a solution ?
Same problem as Lolo and did not find any solution until now.
Use McGuider
As far as the problem comes from tomtom and not from the GPS usage, we can use other navigation software like McGuider. I have tested, and it works fine.
I asked tomtom about this problem but no matter the problem is within their software. They did not want to know anything about it because their sofware continues working (is the rsap who goes down).

WM6 device as bluetooth headset / speaker

Hi folks,
is there any way to use a WM(6) device as bluetooth headset/speaker?
I want use Skype (or similar) on my PC with my Wizard and the Wizard's cable-headset as bluetooth headset / speaker.
I think I searched the whole net twice, but found nothing.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
TheDuke87
I'm not familiar with such an application but you can certainly use Skype Mobile 2.5 on your phone to talk while you're at home.
Hi,
thanks for your answer.
Skype was just an example, so that everybody knows what I'm up to.
Am I really the only one wishing to use the MDA as bluetooth headset?

[Q] Bluetooth multiple connections external gps and handsfree

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
