Is this possible? I am trying to decide what gps to get - a wired sucker and cradle type with gps built in and a connection at the bottom of the BA, or a bluetooth one.
I use a bluetooth headset as well when driving you see...
All advice appreciated.

These are what I am looking at buying.
I see you were asking about the Blue Angel, that I can't answer you unfortunately, but I'm using the Magician with BT GPS (Swedish BLUEi device) and the Jabra BT330 headset simultaneously in the car, chatting on the phone while finding my way with Tomtom 5. Works like charm! Since I haven't been using the Blue Angel I don't know if it's using the same BT stack (Microsoft's own)
I use the Brodit active holder and hooked up a little cable-splitter charging the GPS and Magician through the same +5v USB supply. The GPS is on top of the dashboard with the discrete wiring down to the splitter. Had to modify the GPS to make it startup by the ignition, phew...
Anyway, hope this could be of any help though... cheerio

To answer, i'm using Qtek9090 with headset, while bluetooth activesync. And when i'm in my car, i use my bluetooth gps with my headset at the time with no issues.
joebongo...
to answer your question - yes you can use a bluetooth headset simulataneously with a GPS receiver. This works because the connection on both devices is establised on seperate I/O channels hence there is no interference. Globalsat BT338 + tomtom is a worthwhile combo trust me..
hope this helps

No problem here connected to a Fortuna Clip-on BT GPS and a Parrot CK3000 with my Blue Angel. It was recommended to me to get the GPS and phone connected before the starting the car (which starts the car kit).
Thanks for the replies.
After I discovered the same popping on mp3 playback, this BA went back to the O2 shop (second one I have had), my contract cancelled as it was in the trial period, and I am now waiting for the universal (XDA exec, MDA Pro) to come out in a couple of weeks.
See you there.

Hi. I am a newbie here and I must confess...I am not a technie, just a simple person who loves his o2 XDA. Only problem I have with this baby was that I can only use the phone with a wired handsfree set. I remember reading somewhere that the XDA can be made to link with a bluetooth ear and mouth piece (like the Jabra bluetooth) by adding a component inside the XDA. Can someone please help me?
Thanks and may the XDA be with you!!! :lol:
I don't think that you can. XDA's (Wallaby) is not SDIO port, and cannot add a SD Bluetooth card. There is a camera that gets by the SD/SDIO differences. But no bluetooth so far.
Kegtapper
www.kegtapper.net
you can install bluetooth on an xda1 but it's not done internally. when i was still using an xda1; i bought a jabra 250 bt headset with an adaptor for non-bt phones/ppcs (ages ago). the adapter is the charger/holster for the headset. what happens is the adapter plugs into the xda1's microphone jack. you then proceed with the bonding process between the headset and the adapter. once bonded; there you go...wireless! the only drawback is that the adapter is practically dangling on the xda1; the attached pic wil give you a rough idea as to how this would look. others have gotten by this little problem by sticking the adapter to the back of the xda1...or on mounting it on the leather case. check out ebay or other websites; with bt practically available in almost all ppcs / phones you shouldn't have a hard time looking for a set for the non-bt xda1. should be cheaper too...
cheers
getting a adaptor to get a bluetooth headset working dont add bluetooth to a device
bluetooth is much more then headsets
Bluetooth and XDA
Is the adopter refered to the cradel that is used to charge the headset? If so where do you get the cable to connect this to the XDA ?

I'm sick of trying to find a car cradle that has audio out, ps2 and 12v for charging!
Why is it that no manufacturers of xda cradles ever realise that some of us want to listen to mp3's in the car and have tom-tom voice prompts coming through our stereos!
Being right handed, I want my PDA on the right of the steering wheel, so I can operate Tom-Tom before setting off, or change tracks on media player. I did look at the Brodit pro-clip solutions, but they all seem to be for the centre console for my car (a citroen AX)
I've discovered that the driver's side vent mount has a removable panel, which means I can easily mount a small piece of wood (effectively a small flat shelf) for mounting a cradle, this also brings the device out of the reflective glare zone in the windscreen during night driving. It also means all I need is a standard xda iis cradle to do this mod.
So with much careful thought I've decided to do the following:
Buy a spare cradle:
http://www.my-xda.com/xda2s_other.html
Which leads me to the next question....
Has anyone got any modding experience with the xda2/xdaiis cradle?
similar to this old posting for the Wallaby...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=256&highlight=cradle
(although I couldnt see any of the images on this old posting!)
In theory, this project has 3 key issues to resolve...
1) Powering the cradle and Bluetooth GPS
Three options seem to be available...
a) The hobbyist approach...I've seen various "car-kit diagrams" like this one,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/files/xda_car_kit_circuit.jpg
but to be honest I have no pcb making experience.
b) 12V to 5dc cigarette socket transformer adapter to provide power to the cradle, and perhaps to the bluetooth gps for charging. This should be easier to achieve!
Anyone have any links for low cost solutions for this, obviously it would need to convert 12VDC to 5DC at 2-3Amps
c) As the xdaiis usb cradle charges directly from a USB power source, this seems an Ideal solution!
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=EXP_USB-CLA
2) Audio out: THE MAIN PROBLEM!
Ideally I just want to get in the car and cradle the device, no other connections being required.
Therefore I need to modify the xdaiis cradle for audio output...
Ideally, the feed for the audio should come from the bottom connector, when the xdaiis is cradled.
With this in mind, I found this article about dismantling an xdaii cradle...
http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=42&PN=1
If you look at the images on this web-page, you can see that - at the back of the cradle on the opposite side of the usb cable from the 5volt dc input is what looks like a pcb pinout for a headphone connector...
is this right? Can anyone confirm this.
Would it be possible to solder a connector onto here (assuming the solder pads connect to the 22pin connector!)
As this would be far easier than mucking about trying to solder onto the miniscule pins on the bottom of the 22pin connector on the cradle as it goes into the pcb!
If it works of course!
b) modify a headset
I did consider modifying an old wallaby headset to wire it into my car amp
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/Connectors , does anyone have any info on the pinout for the himalaya/blue angel headphone socket? I have also tried a friend's xda II headset on the IIs and yet again they have changed the pinout! The audio connections are once again totally different, resulting in the "echoing" effect when one headset is plugged in from the other device. This means that the audio ground pin has changed since the xdaII headphone socket schematic! This difference is also confirmed by looking at the handsfree "pod" on both headsets... The IIs has one button for answering a call, where the II has two buttons, wether it is the same as the XDA1 (Wallaby) remains to be seen....
c) buy a PDA2k 3.5mm headphone adapter...
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=118289&sbadd=118289
Then use a standard lead to connect it to the hi-fi amp in the car.
3) charging the TOM TOM BLUETOOTH GPS
I'm wary of putting anything other than the recommended voltage (5VDC) into this device, so the best option is to supply power using (1b) or (1c) above, perhaps cutting into the supplied RJ cable to minijack psu to hook it up from the same supply.
While I'm on the subject of the bluetooth gps.... Does anyone knopw how long does the tom tom bluetooth gps work with a full charge?
Does it vary based on an active connection, or is it the same as on standby?
Do I need to power it in the car at all? Can I not just charge it as required at home? There doesnt seem to be much literature about the Bluetooth GPS reciever's battery life in the box!
Anyone care to comment on these ideas?
:lol: :lol:
I think the fact that no-one makes a cradle which provides audio-out through the bottom connector of the XDA2 is because the XDA2 doesn't provide this possibility. It's not the car-kit manufacturers' fault. Blame HTC.
However, I could be wrong... :roll:
My solution: I bought one of these XDA2 mounts ( http://www.pdamods.com/proddetail.asp?prod=A11XDA2MNT&cat=23 ) which works really well. It charges the phone and my TomTom BT GPS. To achieve audio-out I plan (eventually) to use the XDA2's headphone socket by drilling a hole through the mount's base in the right spot and using a 2.5mm jack adapted to play through the car stereo. Not an ideal solution, but surely must be simpler for you than trying to build a reliable (and safe!) 12V -> 5V convertor and butchering a spare XDA2 desktop cradle?
Just a suggestion... 8) Let us know how you get on. Good luck!
QUOTE 12V to 5dc cigarette socket transformer adapter to provide power to the cradle, and perhaps to the bluetooth gps for charging. This should be easier to achieve!
Anyone have any links for low cost solutions for this, obviously it would need to convert 12VDC to 5DC at 2-3Amps
Just about any mobile phone car charger will do.
Silicon s, you must be wrong :lol:

That's what I'm looking for. Have you found anywhere to actually buy them? I looked over the whole site.
How about this alternative cradle. I bought one for my XDAIIs and it works perfectly. Got one for the birds XDA2 and that work great too.
It provides power to either a wired GPS or charges a bluetooth GPS, it has a built in speaker and a cables provided to run from the XDA's headphone socket to the cradle. THIS THING IS LOUD!
One word of caution, the speakers in my car are shielded so I don't get that warning noise from them that I am about to get a call or text. The speaker on the cradle is NOT shielded and so you do get interference when you are about to get a call or switch cells.

i thought about using my 6601 as an MP3 player in my car as well. but since my eclipse cdplayer does mp3, i abandoned the idea
option 1: cut up a 2.5mm headset and plug it into the top of the device
pros: cheap and effective
cons: have to plug it in every time (and unplug it to take a call)
option 2: pair a bluetooth headset with the device, crack it open and wire the speaker to a preamp
pros: wireless
cons: ruin an otherwise good bt headset, music would be in mono
option 3:
http://motorola.digitalriver.com/se...e&SiteID=motostor&productID=36065700&Env=BASE
"transfer audio to hands-free"
pros: wireless
cons: EXPENSIVE, pretty vague description
option 4:
http://www.itechdynamic.com/html/border22.htm
http://xprnnews.xfn.info/itech/nightingaleBSH338/en.htm
pros: wireless, stereo, routes incoming cails through car
cons: i cant find it anywhere
its called the "nightingale BSH338" or the "Bluetooth Stereo Clip Headset"
if anyone finds one, please reply with a link

Sorry for my ignorance but im a novice as far as pda's are concerned. I have looked through many posts but can't come up with an answer. I have just received my spv m2000 and need to know what I need to use it for sat nav in my car. Could anyone please advice? sorry if their is already a thread on this subject but im in a bit of a hurry as I am heading off for Southampton on a few days and need to get some gear ordered.
i am in the same situation as you. from research tomtom navigator with version3 software is the best option with either the gps reciever of bluetooth or wired

i believe that tom tom 3 is the best but which bluetooth reciever and how much? There are a few on ebay but i dont want to get ripped offwith some cheap inferior one
I have heard good reports of emtac, particularly this model : http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=EMTAC_GPS_TRINE
I just got a Altina GBT-708 BT GPS off eBay, and have been testing it with MS Pocket Streets 2004 (free as part of my MSDN subscription) -- it works quite well, given the limits of the Pocket Streets software. I'll probably try the DeLorme software next -- it's only $35 as opposed to $150 for TomTom, and I'm a cheap bastard
The Altina can be had for $75-$100, and supports WAAS/EGNOS for extra accuracy -- it uses the same GPS chipset as the TomTom unit, at roughly half the price. One caveat about the Altina -- it's advertised as being able to work over USB, but it doesn't since it shows up as an different device than its driver expects. Not an issue for me, as both the systems I'll use it with are BT-enabled.
The tomtom bluetooth is good, the latest version has a removable battery also. Personally I use a cabled gps because I was having to power the xda in the car so I saw no reason to have a wireless setup when the same plug powers the gps also.
All you will ever need!!! for GPS info
Here it is.. again
www.pocketgps.co.uk
The best site around!
I got a cheap one off ebay, it works fine, paid £50ish, have to manually establish a bluetooth connection with it each time I want to use it but other than that its fine.
I use TomTom on my M2000 and Destinator on the carPC, TomTom wins hands down.
I use an M2000 on Orange with NavMan Smart ST V3. Works superbly and I love the 3D orientation.
Use it with a Holux cradle. You can read a review and my comments there. Mixed opinions on the product from me but the concept is good. Since I posted I have doctored my old nokia dash mount to fix it permanently without the wobble-arm
Still getting lockups if I start SmartST in the cradle. NavMan say they don't support this phone!!!
I did try the tom tom cradle with an external gps reciever but it wouldn't hold on to the port and fell over all the time. Would prefer a similar solution to the Holux but if you want a portable GPS solution the Holux is OK albeit with some issues ....... that speaker!!!!! AAAAGHHH. Fine now though. Read the review for more.
A couple of things worth noting...
Just to add a little info to this thread.
I have an SPV M2000. The information I found on the internet at www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk and www.gpsforless.co.uk says that the TomTom GPS units are some of the best available. Mine works perfectly but I'm sure others are as good if not better.
One argument for wired and as opposed to Bluetooth GPS is as follows.
Wired means that you can use your Bluetooth headset if you get a call during your journey. Also no headset cable to get tangled in your flailing arms as you spin the steering wheel. Minus point unsightly wires across dashboard.
Bluetooth GPS means that you can use your GPS system away from the car as the Bluetooth unit is battery powered. You cannot use Bluetooth headset with it so problems as described above.
Just a couple of points but worth considering.

Sorry I dont belive this to be correct, I have the M1000 and I can/do use the bluetooth GPS and Headset at the same time..
dogo
I have an M2000 and i can use sat nav and a bluetooth headset, the M2000 disconnects from the GPS and connects to the headset (this process takes about half a second) during the duration of the call, and then it reconnects back to the GPS once the call is over
its true that you cannot use sat nav and make calls with bluetooth at the sametime, but you cannot see the screen or hear the sat nav program during a call, so what does it matter?
but it does switch seamlessly over, so do not be put off using a bluetooth GPS and a BT headset with your M2000
Oh, and by the way. the reason i chose a bluetooth GPS is because it is a self contained unit, so when it is powered in the car even when he car is switched off, it has always aquired a signal so no waiting when i get in the car for my position to be picked up
I've a Parrot BT CK3000 car kit and BT GPS and both work together fine, although I have less hassle if the GPS and my M2000 are connected first.
Just to clarify things here...
Previously I was running TomTom Navigator 3 on SPV M1000 and now have upgraded to TomTom Navigator 5 on SPV M2000.
On both Pocket PCs and with both versions of TTN, I was able to use bluetooth GPS AND use bluetooth headset to make calls etc without TTN packing up.
F
Thanks guys, I stand corrected.
Using gps away from the car would probably be useful for walkers and cyclists. I was unaware of the auto switchover. Lets just hope you don't get a call at a particularly complicated intersection.
I suppose that fact that i can sometimes spend 20 minutes on a call in the car would make BT gps useless for me. I'm glad I chose wired.
K
I have both wired and BT. Got the wired one way back with Destinator 2 on my original XDA (Bluetooth not an option at the time). Got BT GPS last year for XDAII and found that as I use SatNav mainly in the car I tend to use the wired one - no conflict with headset and charges the phone at the same time, so I don't have to remember to charge 2 devices. The original Xda connector has worked fine in XDA, XDAII and MDAIII.
By the way, three of my friends have bought the following cheap BT GPS from Expansys
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=119717
And all say it works fine.

Hi
I have a 1 GB memory card that has the latest tomtom installed(tomtom navigator 5). I use it for my XDA Exec. It also has alerts for speed cameras.
I am selling the memory card with tomtom software and also i have a brand new bluetooth GPS reciever.
Any one interested please make me an offer.

I am exploring Hands free options other than a bluetooth headset for when I am driving.
I am contemplating between a a pioneer Audio Head unit CD player and can pair with 4 phones. Feed back from a few owners of this headset s very positive with excellent sound quality when using the phone.
( I have not a chance to test my qtek 9100 with this head unit)
The alternative would be a Tom Tom 500/700 - It offer bluetooth handsfree mode with phones and would give Navigation aswell. Does anyone have any experience of the call/sound quality an user experience with the wizard?
What other suggestions are there?
regards
Jass
I have no experience with either of these. I use a Parrot, and it works flawlessly. It can pair with 4 devices at once. Prolly the best $199 I've spent on gadgets.
I have no experience with either of these. I use a Parrot, and it works flawlessly. It can pair with 4 devices at once. Prolly the best $199 I've spent on gadgets.
I can highly recommend the Parrot Rhythmn n' Blue MP3 CD Head unit.
I treated myself to one which arrived last Saturday and I fitted inside of an hour on Sunday. It is supplied with an external microphone which connects to the rear of the unit and has a long cord for routing behind fascia and carpets. It paired quickly with my iMate KJam running iMate's latest ROM, synchonised the phonebook (160 contacts) inside of 2 minutes
Note that it doesn't seem to like synchonising multiple numbers for contacts with very long names.
Callers report clear conversations and I'm thrilled with it - the MP3 CD unit works well and has no issue with folder depth (tested with Artist - Album folder structure), the radio supports RDS and Traffic Announcements, and the Bluetooth Firmware update facility is smooth.
Colleagues who've used the TomTom GPS units with Bluetooth as handsfree suggest that an external microphone is necessary for clear conversation.
HTH[/i]
Thanks for that Info - I ordered one over Easter and it should be with me any day this week.

I have a xda mini s and this does not work with the Pioneer Blue Tooth Head Unit.
If anyone else actually got this to work, please let me know.
Thanks
Hi,
I tried my Audi navigator plus with both the Blue Angel and now with my new Wizard. It connects and can talk .... BUT ..... after some time the unit get into sleep mode and bluetooth is lost.
My solution ... car charger. I can set up the telephone to be up when connected. It does not go into sleep mode and the connection remains for ever.
This solution is anyhow a pain in the back side ... with my small and simple siemens I got in the car, got connected ... now I have to find the cable connect the MDA.
There is lot of information (and for the time being no solution) in the blue angel forum.
Regards.

HI.
I've read through the forums and the wiki but can't find much info about using wired gps receivers with the TyTN.
I have a Leadtek GPS receiver presented as an USB A plug. I've connected this into a USB gender changer and then plugged my USB sync/charger cable into this and into my TyTN. The light on the GPS indicates it's receiving but I can't get tomtom 6 or the Wintek Navigator software that goes with the GPS receiver to see the GPS data. Do I just need some USB drivers for the TyTN or should I just give up and buy a Bluetooh GPS?
Many thanks

i think youd be better off working with bluetooth as i dont think youd be able to use a wired gps. think it has been discussed on one thread how this is much a hassle if not perilous for your device.
wired or bluetooth
for sure op is asking about wired connection
but he said should he buy bluetooth?
i am only suggesting if he wants bluetooth but has not got device then this one that i got is great
I think you will find the phone doesn't like any connections but bluetooth.
This is because you cannot use USB without activesync, depending on if you have WM5 or WM6 then the version of active sync matters as well.
If that wasn't the issue then the only other thing it would be after that is the serial setting in tomtom (to the GPS device).
They of course need to be found in the right sequence as well.
Bottom Line as hinted consider buying a bluetooth gps device they are cheap now.

I've tried the Global Sat Bluetooth GPS reciever it is working very good on both my PDA and Laptop.
My Pda is HTC Tytn, schaps 5.53C Radio V1.5
I beleive that the GlobalSat SD-502 SDIO GPS Receiver with built in 512Mb will work. It is kind of pricey and doesn't come with any GPS software but might be worth a shot.

The Hermes has a Micro-SD slot - not SD so SDIO is not going to fit.
Went for Bluetooth
Bought a Brodit Active Cradle and a Holux M-1000 Bluetooth GPS receiver - totally wicked.
Thanks for all the advice
Hello.
I found an SD >>> miniSD adaptor http://www2.multithread.co.uk/mtcsh...oducts/Flexible_SD_to_MiniSD_Adapter_main.jpg
Maybe there is some SD >>> microSD adaptor, I will check this.
anyway, the question is: ¿Is the microSD SLOT a SDIO SLOT?
Salutes!
