TomTom and Navman

Hello,
did anybody know the settings in TomTom GPS for the Navman 4100 / 4400 Bluetooth ?
The connection between XDA II and Navman works now with the widcomm Bluetooth Software. The Microsoft Bluetooth Stack did not bond the Navman.
But I don’t know the settings to receive a gps signal.
:?

im gona buy a xda 2. does it work with tomtom2 navigator?

Yes, it works with TomTom !!!
But the question is: does it works with your gps reciever?
:roll:

TomTom5 Navigator... HELP PLZ

hiya guys,
I just bought a tomtom navigator 5 Original Cd from a mate and installed it on my XDA II, well my nightmare turned out when i tried to connect it with my BT GPS receiver and it doesnt seeem to work. The gps works superb with 6630, 6600 but it doesnt work with XDa, i donno why. a friend suggested tht it only works with a Tomtom gps receiver, is tht true.
My question is, is it possible to use any bluetooth gps receiver with XDA for tomtom or do i need a special one.
thanks for looking

I use tomtom 5 with a third party bt gps reciever, I believe it is best to update to 5.1 though. 8)

First of all, install the last version : 5.2 :wink:

exactly same problem for me. My Gps is HAMLET BT. No solution until now.

HTC TYtn, Navigon and GNS 5843

Hi,
I'm looking to find out if anyone knows if the HTC Tytn will wirk fine with Navigon 5 or 6 and than with the GNS 5843 GPS/TMC BT Receiver.
Can't find any info on this combination.
THX

I would safely say that any navigation software that is for a pda device and a compatable bluetooth gps receiver will work just fine. I am not using your specific software or gps receiver, but with tomtom software and a bluetooth gps receiver I find the device works as a great navigator.

Okay THX a lot for the reply. I still wonder about the combination of Navigon Mobile Navigator and the GNS 5843 TMC/GPS receiver.
I know TomTom works but I prefer Navigon and on an iPAQ 2790 the mentioned post and combination worked perfectly.
But I don't know the TyTn very well.

Prophet & GPS?

Hi,
Does anyone recommend and GPS navigation products for the prophet? I have been looking around, and have had conflicting views on the TomTom mobile platform.
Any recommendations?
Cheers

I'm using iGo 2006 Plus with full Europe maps on only 1 GB SD card!
This program is very fast and optical very nice, because it's based on a game engine by PDAMill!

i'm using mapking, gpsgate with holux bluetooth device= Never let me down

iGo is the best

currently using holux bt gps receiver & garmin que s/w. not much maps/programs for us here in NZ. no problems using them

Used TT6 and a SiRF Star III bluetooth antenna for a while with no problems.

I use...
Tom Tom 6 with a generic bluetooth gps receiver, with Europe and North America maps on a 4 Gb SD card. Works beautifully, starts quickly and reliably.
I usually use it in the car (with a car windshield suction mount)

I have been using Google maps (free) with a gprs/edge connection but there is no voice guidance. I have a holux slim 240 bluetooth gps receiver which works good but sometimes it takes some time to find the satellites initially.

Destinator with Hollux
A Hollux receiver and Destinator 6.x works great for me.

GPS with Prophet
Most software are not bad..Best of all is the GarminXT with BT Holux 236.

I use TT6 and an Adadpt SirfIII BT reciever.
tried numerous other nav systems, but this one works the best around all europe, IMO.
I'm a courier IRL, so i have sh*tloads of experience with satnav systems

how do I use GPS on this thing?

greetings,
I believe the atom has some built-in GPS function. but how do I use it? do I need to buy some bluetooth GPS adaptor or something? if so, what have you used that worked pretty well?
thank you in advance!

Atom don't have built-in GPS function, you have to get a external BT GPS receiver eg holux GPS Bluetooth Receiver plus map software.

You should buy a gps receiver, gps menu in your device just to help you find which COM did you connect the gps to,.
need a bluetooth connection to connect your device then,.
i am using garmin 10x, and it works very well with my atom,.

I have used and recommend iblue GPS, works very well and battery life is extrodinary.

Garmin
I used Garmin BT10x w/ mobilext works fine too...
