Hello:
my opinion of the BT software that comes on the XDAII is that it is not very good.
however the ipaq units have a great piece of software made by widcomm called bluetooth manager. The widcomm site is not very informative at all and the software is not available to download.
I have found that this software can be downloaded from here : http://www.compaq.com/support/files/handheldiPAQ/us/download/14376.html
this loads into my XDAII perfectly (with no complaints about my device not being an ipaq), but does not see the bluetooth radio...
Any ideas how to solve this, or is there any other decent BT managment software available for the XDAII.
PS - I am more than willing to pay for the software but widcomm do not seem to offer it for sale anywhere.
I think you got the link to the update for the Widcomm's BT - may be that is a reason why it does not work.
The reason I am saying that - I had installed my version of it on my I-Mate and it worked fine.
If you will search this forum for Widcomm - I am sure you will be able to find it, otherwise send me PM or e-mail and I will forward to you my copy of it.

Excellent. I found it on the forums already, have installed it fine. I keep getting intermittant BT radio not ready errors but I tink this is some other software that is trying to get to tha radio at the same time.
Thanks very much for your help.
I think i remmeber that error... It is interference with original BT on XDA.. Make sure that you clean your StartUp folder to prevent starting original BT
Itried to become a member to the club i-mate.
But i can´t, because my device is called Qtek S100 not i-mate jam, It´s the same device, but the only says that i have to contact the store from where i bought it, but what can they do?????? Change the name on my device????
Conclusion:: Club i-mate sucks. :evil:
Club I-Mate is only for I-Mate Jam owners. Not for MDA Compact or Qtek owners.
Although clubimate does have many issues due to which you can fairly conclude that their support sucks, your problem however does not seem to be an issue with imate but rather with Qtek.
cubimate is for people who have bought an Imate branded device and you clearly have not. So you should be looking for a clubQtek (if one exists)... and if there is none then its the Qtek people you should be complaining to.

Hmmm. Since when is Toyota and Nissan the same???
The difference between i-mate jam and the qtek s100, is mostley cosmetic, they are made in the same factory, it´s the same on the the inside, Atleast that´s what the Swedish manufactur said.
The biggest difference is the text on the outside.

Imate and Qtek buy the magician from HTC and rebrand it. Since they sell independently and are rivals, Imate has no business serving Qtek customers.

Ι understand what you say, but think about I-mate. Why allow you to enter in their forum, get their know how, their info, their applications, their firmware... when you haven't paid them for buying the S100???
It's all about branding... I also have a Qtek 2020, which is the MDA II... I cannot enter in the i-mate forum like you...
Don't bother though there is nothing important to find there... The firmware updates cannot be loaded to your S100. You can download them from an official Qtek website... We in Greece have one: www.qtek.gr

No, the difference is also in the content of the Extended ROM. For the Hardware, it is HTC that you can contact...
If you have a PC running Windows, you can't say that unix sucks, right ?
Fairiness in bussiness
You are all right!
I've learn the hard way that Qtek IS NOT iMate. I ordered an XDA-II from Expansys, that was out-of-stock and re-routed to be iMate, that ended up being a Qtek 2020, the price difference was even in my favour, Right?
W-R-O-N-G!!!
Qtek is almost a fake brand, (at least for my WWE version): No web page, no support, no upgrades, no forum, no----- NOTHING!
More than a year later, I gave up trying to get BT Handsfree support for my Qtek 2020, and get BT syncing at same time, so I ordered an iMate JAM from Expansys, Guess what? I just received a call from Expansys, offering me to switch to a Qtek S100!
I REFUSED!
I prefer to wait two more weeks rather than feel myself again in the wild, with no one "official" to help (Thanks ONLY to XDA developers and you guys here)
Conclussions:
HTC really sucks, since they are the ones who know how "hadicapped" their devices are, and provide no help.
Qtek sucks too, since they are making money for branding the devices and letting them unsupported.
Expansys sucks a bit too, though just for being un-informative and not advising their custommers that "manufacturing" is part of the thing, but "support is paramount" when you are talking about really new tech products that are going to need a lot of tweaking.
iMate might have their share too, but obviously not for my choosing of my Qtek 2020.
And iMate is even cheaper!

Any chance you could tell us what is new in the firmware available on http://www.qtek.gr/s100_firmware.html?
It seems to be of a later version than that of my swedish Qtek, and I would very much like to know what is in the update so I know if I should bother calling Brightpoint and ask them to put it on their web site.
Thanks!

Qtek S100 Firmware Update
ATTENTION! WITH THE UPGRADE ARE EXTINGUISHED THE DATA OF YOUR APPLIANCE! CONTACTS, PROGRAMS, SOUNDS OF CALL, PICTURES, VIDEO THAT CAN EXIST IN YOUR APPLIANCE, WILL ERASE!
Who can use Greek?
The Greek publication has been manufactured by the Ace-Hellas. The Greek publication is been disposed only for appliances that have been bought from the Ace-Hellas or her network of resellers.
What it needs I am careful?
The Qtek fortj'zej when becomes the upgrade. It should you attend it is completely fortjsme'no front you begin the upgrade.
That does become the upgrade firmware?
Attend to have passed the Activesync and exists communication with the computer. It is proposed you use some computer with Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Terminate any program you have open! Afterwards simply you execute the file that you lowered/you will lower and you follow the directives in your screen. If you face problem with the upgrade you try in some other computer. When it finishes the upgrade it will be supposed you realise hard-reset (the photograph in the end of upgrade in your computer, you shows how him makes).
I began the upgrade and in the middle to me it was cut the current and extinguished the computer (or more simply failed the upgrade).
Do not worry. The Qtek has his bootloader therefore it will be supposed after a reset you see white screen (the screen is not litted up therefore sees carefully from near distance) and is entered Serial.
1. You remove the Qtek from the base. Remove the battery for 30 seconds and xanatopoceti'ste.
2. You begin your computer regularly
3. You activate the Qtek and place in the base. The clue Serial should change in USB.
4. You execute again the upgrade.
I began the upgrade for 2nd time but failed again.
Try in some other computer. Try in computer with Windows 2000 or XP. The upgrade does not probably work rightly in Windows 95,98,ME. Also a other factor are the problematic USB Controllers (eg VIA)
Exist some does background for what it changed in the new publication?
We unfortunately do not have the changes that realises the Qtek. It follows however background for Greek:
1.1.1 (03/02/05)
- With publication 1.06 is corrected the problem with the MMS in the network of Cosmote. - Correction of orthographic errors and other errors in fo'rmes.
- Automatic regulations GPRS Internet/MMS and on the 4 networks of mobile telephony. In the Q-Telecom exists only service MMS. Attention! It should you have activated your services from pa'roho'!
- Choice permanent report in the SMS. Can activate the possibility in each new SMS is preselected the report. This him you will find in the Regulations in the choice for Language.
1.0.0 - Initial Publication (20/12/04)

You mean Nissan and Toyota aren't the same? They're both transportation devices, aren't they?
Same goes for Qtek branded phones & I-Mate branded phones. The guy who started this thread is pissed because he owns a Qtek branded phone, yet can't log into the I-Mate website to get support for it? Come on.
Toyota and Nissan are by far more different from eachother than the Qtek and iMate.
If you need to use cars for your example you might want to go for something like the Opel Agila and Suzuki Wagon R. Built by the same company, looks identical, but marketed by different companies.
Hi guys!
Just learned of this forum, it might be my last chance.
I bought the GlobalSat SD-501 GPS secure digital receiver in Hong Kong. It was a big gamble and it turned out to a headache.
After installing the thing you are supposed to be able to see which comport it has received using the nifty utility "GPSInfo" from GlobalSat.
It is supposed to identify itself as COMX: MANF-0501-CARDID or something similar.
... but after loading the program I see the following:
COM1: Serial
COM2: Serial_Cmd
COM3: IrCOMM
COM4: BTIBserial
COM5: BTOBserial
COM9: Serial_Data
That is, nothing that resembles anything what I want. I tried to force select one of the following ports but of course that didn't work. There are also 3 different drivers to test, the one supplied on the cd and two on the developers site, found here:
http://www.globalsat.com.tw/english/download.php?level_id=3
I have tried all three drivers with no effect. I have also tried soft resetting after install and even a hard reset to see if that would solve any issues.Along with the drivers there is also a program called COMKiller that disables comports (after surfing found out that most IPAQ's tie up all comports leaving nothing for the GPS), I tried this as well with no success.
The LED on the GPS is supposed to blink when it has your location fixed, the device actually does that after a while so it seems to have a working hardware anyway - it just won't talk to the phone.
From looking at other forums it seems as this device work for people running the S2020 (the Himalaya) so maybe there is hope.
In summary this is what I have tried:
1. Tried all three drivers available from maker.
2. Soft resetting.
3. Hard resetting.
4. Upgraded ROM to the version described below.
5. Disabled IR (incoming beam).
This is what I have:
Qtek S100
ROM: 1.06.00 WWE
ROM date 01/06/05
Radio version: 1.05.00
Protocol version: 1337.39
ExtROM version: 1.06.115 WWE
Model NO.: PM10A
Maybe there is something in the driver that is trying to access the S100 in the wrong way, maybe it is trying to force select a busy comport. I don't know. Please you kind devs and others, can you maybe take a look at this?
best regards
Kristian
I querried this forum about this about a month ago and had no luck.
I have an o2 mini. When i plug the sd501 into the mini The light doesnt come on. My friend has JAM. When I plug it into the jam the light comes on but still i have not been able to get it to work,
If you find a solution please post
Could any of you smart devs please take a look at this, I would be eternally grateful!

Hi Kris,
did you already try on the forums you can find at www.pocketgps.co.uk ???
IMHO that is the best-gps-experts website; if nobody can help you there, you can put your receiver in the recycle bin
Sorry I cannot help you some more
Hi,
yes I have posted in that forum too - awaiting response. But I am sure this is solvable, it's not rocket science. Well, for me it might be but I know there are some seriously smart people here eager to give support
/Kris
being a bit a GPS expert myself as well as an S100 owner I have not found a solution so far to get this combo to work, which I guess is not that bad at the end of the day considering you lose the SD slot for storage unlike with say a Bluetooth GPS. I will certainly revisit when they send me the SD-502 with its 512mb RAM, small helix antenna and SIRFIII chipset for testing in a few weeks ;-)
GpsPassion -> Do you have some kind of relation with GlobalSat? If so, have you had any comments from them if they will try to make this combo to work or not?
I mean, I like the device and it would suit my needs quite well - and I bought mine so I must decide if I should sell it or if there might bew a solution sometime. Do you have any contacts?`
best regards

Hello Sd 501 "victims",
searching through the net I ended up at this thread. I also would like to run my sd-501 with my magigian. Is there really no solution to that problem?
Stefan
hi
the drivers arent installed properly you should have on there manufactors card under the com ports. reinstall the drivers andf it will work are you using the disk that came with it as the drivers you down load dont seem to work.
kevin
Nice to see an old thread coming back to life. I for one never managed to get the 501 to work on an S100 and the 502 is following the same fate, looks like some SDIO issues at HTC...http://www.gpspassion.com/fr/news.asp?id=410
just signed up today and this is my first post! anyway i am having the same problem. i have been trying to get the globalsat sd-502 to talk to my Qtek s110 without any joy depsite expansys saying it is compatible.
i have tried the drivers supplied and those on the globalsat website. it cannot see any com ports other than those mentioned earlier in this thread.
i do know from a local guy who tried to help me out that he managed to get it working with his xdaii which was not comaptible but he failed to help me out on with the qtek. i think this is one that globalsat will need to look at.
its a shame because it locks on to satellites just as quick as my globalsat bt-338 but wont suck the battery dry as quickly the bluetooth does. i will be interested to here if someone comes up with a solution.

Sorry to hear about your problems - but, what software are you trying? A good freebie is VisualGPS CE, and does work with the SD-501 (i use said GPS reciever with my Blue Angel).
But unfortunatly, I think this problem is purely a HTC problem, not global sat. Remember, they made thier device compatible to the BSquare SDIO Now protocalls - if HTC decides not to follow that , then it is not GS's fault (though, it is odd that they would support the SDIO on devices like the II, IIs, III, but not on other devices..)
Divine im using tom tom 5 but as far as gps programs ive used both gpsinfo and winfast as someone on the pocketgps site suggested. yeh it probably is something that htc need to look at.
thanks to a bit of browsing on here ive downloaded a trial verison of phone alarm which allows me to use a single press of tghe tom tom icon to activate the bluetooth and tom tom in one go. exiting tom tom switches the bluetooth off and the phone so i can power the device down. this will keep me happy till someone comes up with a solution.i am going to return the sd-502 to expansys and ask them to remove the qteks110 compatiblity reference on their site
Orange have just advised me that the release of AKU2 installed already on my SPV M5000 includes A2DP support and it should work just fine straight out of the box :roll: .....Ive read a fair few of the posts on this forum re AKU2 - A2DP and can't see anything that would confirm this...... in fact if anything not sure I believe them [Orange]..............anybody tried this?
I had not encountered their ROM here either with both AKU2 and A2DP support. I myself would like to know. But if it is not in this forum, I doubt that they released or even support both. Pobably just AKU2 and "NO A2DP".
Has anyone one on here got one of these?
I've gone full circle from the jam->Wizard->Universal and then got myself a simple phone that i've had the last few months due to work. Now, out of all three of those phones, the jam for me had the best form factor and feel out of them all, wizard was too fat and plasticy.
Anyway, just seen on t-mobile uk site the compact II, my main questions is, does anyone know if any bluetooth headphones will work for this for music? not sure of the BT stack etc etc on this device (HTC charmer?). So if anyones got the same device with Bluetooth headphones working let me know!!
Also if anyone has them working *well* on the jam let me know! What mode of headphones etc etc
thanks all
I'm not sure about this because a friend has one and it has the original WM5 release on it (i.e. not AKU2) and that's known not to support A2DP (the BT profile for stereo headphones) but what I don't know is if T-Mobile have now started shipping the Compct II with AKU2.
Maybe someone knows different, please tell.
For an explanation of what AKU2 is, look in the Wizard and Prophet forums.
cheers,failing that not sure wich device to go for....need it to work with some BT headphones!!
i've red this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33532&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=675
but want it working perfectly![/url]
what's your m600 like paul? I presume this will have A2DP etc? reason i ask is t-mobile are doing the compact 2 for free with co pilot nav and gps receiver + unlimited data usage for £27.50 a month, so i'm very tempted, only problem being i don't know if it will work with BT headphones! Failing this i might go for the exec (again) as i'm sure that'll work!! Just the deal is so good it's almost rude to say no!
I've got the mdac2 and think it's great. I've updated it with the T-mobile AKU2 update which works fine, giving push email.
I haven't tried any BT headphones but have read that once you have the AKU2 update there is a way of enabling A2DP by adding drivers or something like that. I think it was regarding the Wizard but much of the Wizard system is the same as the Charmer.
if anyone can confirm that there is a cab.file or something like that with a2dp on then i'll be going for this i think then!! is your aku2 rom a tmobile one?
yes. it's from the official t-mobile download site. was made available in June.
great cheers, they may be shipping with this rom now so best check. Now all i need to find out is if the a2dp file that people use on the wizard will work on this!

The M600 is great and yes, it has AKU2. I have not tried BT headphones but if you look in the prophet forum there will be people there who have.
The T-Mobile deal is a good one - that's the deal my co-worker has taken and he's really happy with it.

Yes it does support a2dp and the cab file is available somewhere on this forum you will have to do a search, sorry im not a regular so it will be difficult for me to find anything however I have a mda compact ii and the a2dp works! Should go for the offer, i also have the co-pilot 6 which youve mentioned and its a great deal.
All the best
