Hi,
Has anyone managed to get this to work on the XDA2i or am I climbing up the wrong tree? :roll:
anyone?? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
I installed it with a fortuna bluetooth gps and it works!
Anyway i had some problems with Plantronics headphone, i
made some tests and i suspected that Tomtom driver interact
with Plantronics, so i unistalled it! :roll:
Also i think that 2020i doesn't support 2 wire serial comunication, so
if you have a serial gps should not works! :?
Ciao
There should be no problems - I've been using it since the XDA2i was released, you need to ensure that you apply all of the updates etc. Let me know if you have any specific problems.
I can vouch that it works... Although you may need to reinstall bt-stack as tomtom overwrites it with old dll's...
Thanks everyone. I will try it.

You need GPS2.09, and it's available from the support site (!)
Are you saying that the bluetooth problem with gps is solved by the tomtom update and that I will have no need of Towas bluetooth patch.

That's it.
Just install the new driver.
Bond your BTGPS and in the driver select bluetooth gps.
whats the best BT GPS
hi guys/galls
whats the best GSP reciever, for Tomtom Nav2 with the XDA2 ?
I was using the Hiacom HI-203e (cabled) but since the cables is now busted its not worth replacing it. I'd rather have a BT GPS, so whats your suggestions, pros and cons etc etc...
i'd be glad to hear, as I don't want to waste any money..

Just wish the update was stable. I lose all my Checkboxes and Buttons when I open it.
Have you updated the application ?
I had this problem until I installed the update to 2.24
Goto www.tomtom.com /support for the update

Hi everyone
up until today i was using a 3970 with tomtom2 and a b/tooth emtac receiver.Bought a xda2 today and firstly cant get the emtac to bond with thexda think im using the correct passkey of 0183 but the xda keeps saying invalid bluetooth pin :?:
any ideas as im pulling my hair out here,also on a similar subject cant seem to get the xda to even recognise my b/tooth headset,a hbh 30 which was working fine with the ipaq.Hope i can get these issues sorted as the Xda looks great.
Regards
nige
Ohh..well... WELCOME to buggy XDA2 bluetooth!
Try to install the new Bluetooth Tools Patch,maybe fix the prob man!
Regards
nigelfish
I have a rebadged emtec receiver and can confirm that you need to install bluetooth tools (even with the latest ROM).
I have rebonded this thing many times due to ROM upgrades and hard resets, the other day it would not accept 0183. weird. A soft reset fixed this problem.
Thx for the swift reply guys,i will give it a go asap
watch this space
ah well thought it would be to easy,i downloaded the bluetooth tools and still not accepting the passkey of 0183 just saying invalid bluetooth pin.Any other ideas guys?
nige
this may be a stupid question but are you using the keyboard or transcriber to enter 0183?
The keyboard is the way to go here as you can't confirm if transciber is recognising correctly.
emtac problem sorted
Hi evreyone
got the emtac problem sorted thx,passkey turned out to be wrong should have been 2003.So tomtom seems to be ok now,but still cant get my hbh30 bonded,not even seeing it when im on discoverable,so again any ideas would be welcome,and once again thx for all your help with the emtac problem
nige
Update
Hbh 30 now bonded but having trouble/or could be me getting used to it ! /
i can acept calls into the headset ok but making a call from the xda i cannot use the headset just the xda to talk with.Anyone using the microsoft voice command?
Just would like to be able to have full hands free when in car.
Thx for any help offered.
Hi all!
I found a strange problem reguarding bluetooth software conflicts beetween Qtek2020's Microsoft Bluetooth Stack and the Widcomm 1.4.1 (BluetoothGPS.cab) Stack.
It means.
Without the Widcomm Stack installed I am able to syncronize via Bluetooth with ActiveSync (com6).
And I moreover can surf the web trough my Qtek GPRS connection via Bluetooth. And that's perfect.
But.
With the Widcomm Stack installed I am still able to syncronize via Bluetooth with ActiveSync (on com6) but I loose the bluetooth-modem capacity!
I own a Trust180 Bluetooth/USB adapter.
I need the Widcomm Stack only to use my Fortuna Clip-On GPS and I will not need it anymore if I could find the way to use it with Qtek-Microsoft Bluetooth Stack, but I have not found the way to do it yet.
So I think I could only surf the registry to find the answer to let both stacks work together, is it possible?
Did anybody have the same problem?
Did anybody find the answer?
Thanks in advance!
Giuseppe
Hi Giuseppe,
I have the same Fortuna Clip-on GPS receiver and I'm able to use it with the MS BT stack. It bonds and offers the option to set up a serial port. If you accept this, it allocates Com 5 to the GPS. I use Tomtom navigation software and in the software set it up as a NEMA 38400 baud connection using Com 5 - all works fine.

XDA 2i Widcomm and Fortuna
I'm having the same problem with a fortuna clip on bluetooth gps and an XDA2i--for some reason that build of the widcomm stack (3900) doesn't work, yet earlier versions, such as that shipped with the XDA2s, appear to work fine--does anyone know where to find a version of the widcomm bluetooth stack from broadcom newer than 3900?

Hi Paul,
thanks for your reply, I know my Clip-On should work together with every software for on road navigation...but...I unfortunately need OziExplorer for my off-road navigation and...OziExplorer need a com7 port.
That's all :wink:
I think I'll try Franson's tools: GPSGate & something else as I read here http://www.franson.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=17&SearchTerms=qtek,2020
I wouldn't like to hardreset my device again...I lost the number of my hardresets.
Thank you anywhere
Giuseppe
Hi giuseppe,I hate broadcom stack too, after many hresets, i thinks there is no way to solve this and other bugs, like the serial modem bluetooth connection.
The only winning move is to sell our 2020i and buy magician
Bye
Luca
Hi Luca, don't surrender, it can work!
I simply followed this http://franson.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=17&SearchTerms=qtek,2020 .
Now I am able to use my Fortuna GPS and my BT Motorola HS805 at the same time. And morover I am still using my Qtek's BT modem ability.
I payed 30 euros for Franson GPS Gate, but it solved my problems.
I am now trying to let ActiveSync work via Bluetooth because it's the only ability I lost. :?
Bye, thank You for your post,
Don't surrender!

Hi all, Thanks for reading. I have been using my Jam for years until it flew out of my pocket into an on coming car! I bought the upgrade. Fantastic peice of kit by far exceeds the jam by such along way. BUT having problems with the TomTom and GPSlim 236. I am not able to connect them! I never had a problem before, anyone else had similar problems?
Please Help?
Mine works fine with my jamin.
The only time I had a problem was when I connected the slim to the PC and switched to SIRF mode, I forgot to switch back to NMEA and that caused problems.
Try linking it to your PC and using the SIRF tool factory reset it.
Hi,
it works for me too.
I paired it with my JAMin, and in Bluetooth settings now I have HOLUX GPSlim236 in "Devices" tab, and "HOLUX GPSlim236 (COM6)" in "COM Ports tab.
Check if you added the outcoming port, and then use GPSviewer on the same port, 38400 baud.
Bye
TomTom and BT GPS
Try removing the pairing and then re-creating the pairing, but this time ensure the name of the device ends in "GPS"....

Hi there.
I have a different GPS to you, a BT74R, but I had the same problem.
I followed exactly the instructions supplied with my unit, the instructions downloaded from TomTom and instructions from other forums but I could never connect.
Then I stumbled on this http://www.bbits.co.uk/blog/archive/2006/02/28/7210.aspx
I followed the instructions and my GPS has been working perfectly ever since, as we have the same phone I guess it will for you to.
Try it and let us know if it works.
Hi all,
Everytime I use Tomtom V6 on my Orange M600 I have to delelte and re-pair my BTGPS unit. If I don't then the Tomtom software cannot seem to see it. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, has anyone found a solution?
Well, i also have this Problem. I also use TomTom 6 with a BT GPS unit, and after every softreset or longer disconnect i have to re-pair the device and enter the code. If i don't TomTom will not see the device any more. I haven't seen any thread with a solution yet.
On my XDA Mini with WM2003SE i never had this problem, so i guess it is a WM5 thing.
Is anybody here who can help me. I have the german Rom 2.15.4.29 GER. Radio Rom is 02.19.21.
Maybe there is a way to fix it in the registry... nothing else is installed yet.
Thanks in advance ... Marc
Ok, can be closed.
The solution is:
uncheck the security mark when installing the com port
Cool, thanks matey. Works a treat
