Hi, i recently just bought a Bluetooth GPS receiver and installed tomtom on my M1000.
Only problem is, the devices appear to be connecting, and the GPS receiver is picking up satellites, but when i load Tomtom is keeps saying that the GPS is disabled.
What am i doing wrong?
Cheers, Tom.

Hi guys,
I've been using the 1.72 ROM for a couple of weeks now and I must say it is the most stable ROM since I've my MDA II. The radio on/off works like a charm and so does the bluetooth. But.....
I use TomTom Navigator 3 with an Emtac bluetooth GPS. It works fine with this ROM but I can't use TomTom anymore without the Emtac bluetooth GPS. What I mean is: Before this ROM I would sometimes open up TomTom to look something up on the map. This would be with bluetooth turned off and my GPS would be somewere else. Now with this 1.72 ROM and the Bluetooth Tools in it, I can't do this anymore. My MDA II will slow down in opening TomTom and will then freeze. It needs a soft reset to get out of this stage. This is very repeatable. I think it has to do with the bluetooth tools in the ROM.
So my questions are:
1. Does any of you guys have the same problem with a bluetooth GPS?
2. Can I do a hard reset and not let this bluetooth tools be installed and still get my bluetooth GPS working?
I hope any of you knows the answer to this (minor) problem.
Thanks!

are you using the latest version of the tomtom gps driver, I had this problem on my old IPAQ 3970. but everything works fine on my XDA with 1.72 and bluetooth tools
I use the very, very latest GPS driver. So you can't reproduce that problem with a bluetooth gps mouse?
Wouter
I have a GlobalSat GPS mouse and it works fine.

I also have the latest GPS driver with the TomTom Wireless (Bluetooth) GPS mouse and works without any problem
Hi Xzanix,
Just to be sure if I just have bad luck. You can open the map in TomTom and look something up without the bluetooth GPS turned on? (I just want to be sure....)
Thanks,

Hi guys,
This thread can be closed. I solved the problem!
I tell you what I did. I had in the GPS settings choosen for COM5 because I had that one activated in the Bluetooth Tools. This was how TT did work but didn't work with no GPS turned on.
Now I turned Bluetooth Tools off and choose for Bluetooth GPS in the GPS settings. Now it works how it is supposed and I can still look something up on the map without my bluetooth GPS turned on.
I'm so happy! :lol:

Hi
i have been trying to figure out the blue tooth wizards for 4 hours on my m1000.
I recently purchased a polstar BT gps device and am trying to get it to talk to my m1000. I just upgraded to wm2003se hopging that that would sort out the blue tooth problems but have been doing research and am told i need a widcom bt stack, where and how do i get this? Thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11729&highlight=widcom
i've now managed to install the wincom stack but for some reason it does not let me connect to my polstar gps using it as a SPP, the reason why i think is because it needs a pass key but the wizard does not ask for one, can anyone recommend a stack that works with gps recievers thanks.
may be this might help http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=14747&highlight=
......by the way have u tried the toshiba bluetooth stack ??
the toshiba one was the first one i tried comes up with the error "An error occurred with the Bluetooth Card. Confirm that the card is working properly" Anyone running a cheapo gps off ebay what stack are you using? Thanks.
Hi all!
I just bought an iPaq BT GPS system (seems like a rebrand of what GLobalSat offers). I have successfully paired the device, but when I do a services check, the blue angel cries that it cannot find any usable services. Is there something I can install on my BA to be able to use this GPS device? IT seems like they are trying to talk to one another, but just don't understand each other.
Thanks!
I fixed it...how? I dont know...weird but it works
I paired, I used tom tom, it got a GPS fix, I used it twice
LOL OK - back with some problems
First: the GPS unit will NOT get a GPS fix...
Then I could not connect to the device, so I deleted the pairing, and decided to re-pair them.
Then I saw the GPS BT device, but the services were not usable!
Now I try to paid the devices, and I cannot even see the GPS unit
arghhhhhh :evil:
i am having a problem connecting to both recievers (royaltek rgt-1000 and Leadtek Wireless GPS Reciever)
I am trying to get them to work with my Wizard (t-mobile Vario)
but i am not getting anywhere.......HELP.......... i can put the in and outgoing ports on the bluetooth thingy as com6 and com7 but in the tom tom i can not even see those.................HELP!!!!!!!!
Sounds like you are running TT5 without the 5.21 update, this sorts that problem
Hi
I seem to have a problem with TomTom 7 and my touch dual.
I can pair my BT device with my phone. after that i can connect it to tomtom and it will see it as a GPS device and I have a signal. So far so good.
Then it starts:
When i close tomtom and open it again, tomtom does not see my BT device anymore and thus no GPS unit and signal. I have to delete the BT connection and create it again to get it working.
Can somebody please help me out with this? I am using Niki Project Rom Editor v2.1.3.
Please help me with this issue as this is very frustrating!!
