I've connected bluetooth GPS to 3125, seemed to be OK (it asked about pin and after that info about equipment beeing connected).
Unfortunatelly GPS software doesn't communicate with GPS equipment. It is searching for bluetooth GPS but doesn't find it. I tried to set connection (port, baud rate) manually but I don't know which COM port is assigned to bluetooth
Is there any way to check this on ?
P.S. I've installed WM6.1 standard by Erofich
try 6.1 pro
I found that bluetooth is using COM6.
The biggest problem was in finding properly working GPS software
hi bchrubas,
Which GPS software are you actually using on WM6.1 standard?
I tried WM6.1 pro for a while but found WM6.1 standard more handsome since I manly want to use my phone simply as a phone
Anyway I'm still missing a good GPS program for navigation which is not intended for touch screen devices.
For now I stucked with Sygic McGuider (http://www.sygic.com/)
It doesn't need touch screen and StarTrek (or At&T 3125) is on the list of compatibile devices. MCGuider runs on STK quite fairly, I didn't noticed any major errors, maybe if it was little faster? (I know that it is possible to overclock this phone but i'm not quite sure about it
Anyhow, I'm stiil searching for some simple GPS track loging software
I looked around a bit and on smartphone-freeware.com I found these two programs:
gpsVP
chtiGPS
both seem to be able to do the loging. And the first one might even be worth trying as a navigation software for me.
not bad, especially this gpsVP
if it really support Garmin format maps it could be very useful

I'm trying to use the Navigon 5 with my Emtac Crux II Bluetooth GPS, but everytime I start it, all is ok, but after 2 or 5 minutes I lose the GPS signal, but the GPS is working ok.
Anyone know how to fix this?
I'm using WM2003SE.
In TomTom 5 all works fine.
Thanks
Sorry I post in english, but this is an international site and we must communicate in comon language.
Did you chek at www.navigon.com the compability to your gps receiver?
I'm waiting for my software to try this program and after try it I can send you a feed back.
For now I can post hear the FAQ about GPS, in Navigon site:
"Can I still use my old GPS Receiver with MN|5?
Yes, all GPS receivers offered by NAVIGON so far (including those with TMC) can be used with MN|5 as well as all other GPS receivers that are NMEA compatibel and transmit VTG and GGA signals. This is expected to be a standard with almost any receiver available and can be checked at the producer's website."
I know that your gps, like mine because are the same, use all those protocols, so you must see if you have a bluetooth problem or if the protocols are recognized by the software.

Marcus
change the poi from the maps of tt3 and put it in the maps on the maps of tt5. it will fix the problem.
I already searched Navigon site for some answers and I got nothing, and yes my GPS is compatible, it's in the list.
I'm talking about Navigon 5, not TomTom 5.
I have different problem with Navigon|5 (maybe the same ? )
Here is my post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=23612&highlight=
Did you install version for PPC2002 or WM2003? I've read, that version for PPC2002 works more stable i faster.
Did you switch your GPS into correct mode ? GGA=1 and VTG=1 ?
I think, that your any my problem are the same because my Navigon5 works correct as long as it doesn't fix gps signal.
Where did you install navigon software (RAM or SD card) ?
Did you try to communicate with navigon's support ? I tried many times and didn't get any answer.
I'm really disappointed, how this software works.

Darek
I think that I found the sorce of my problem.
My problem is that i'm using a cracked version of Navigon 5, and for what I read the crack don't work well and after some time of use the connection with my GPS falls.
I hope I can find a working crack somewere.
MDA-Vario (T-Mobile) Pocket Wind. 2005
All,
I tried to install a Bluetooth-GPS-Antenna (Mod. Xaiox -Skysurf V3) - this seemed to be partially successful. The GPS-device was identified - but with a ?-Mark - so I don't know the status as such. Just 2 references were given - incoming-port COM6 and outgoing COM7.
Second I tried to activate the GPS-Antenna with the Navigon 5.1-Software - this program normally identiefies the GPS-Antenna automatically - didn't work. Optionally the user may define ports being scanned ond the MDA. There were only the ports
COM1(ser), COM2(Xpanel), COM3(IrCom), COM4(Infrared), COM8(Serial USB) an COM9(QDATA).
The ports 5, 6 an 7 are not listet and shown.
Finally I have not been able to install the application with GPS-support.
I would like to find out who has similar experiences and possibly found solutions to it.
Thanks in advance.

bluetoouth GPs antenna issue
hi,
I add a similar trouble with my niki100.
I just boot a niki100, with orange provider in france. I'm tryng to use a bluetouth gps antena.
both equipement (phone & antenna) are copled but when I'm launching the navigor software then the gps peripheric is shown. that it good but this is only during approximatively 10 seconds.
I checked all configurable possible, including the verification of the saving alimentation rule.
withou success, all is working well but onlyfor a very short period.
I tried the antenna with another pda, it is working well. all tests were done with success. I don't understand whynot with the niki.
I did a complementary test, I tried the niki with another gps antenna and it is working well too.
I conclud about a compability issue between my antenna and the niki. maybdo to the bluetooth version.
is it existing a .cab to update the bluetooth driver?
thank you.
after to have tried many rom and radio without success I finaly booth a new antenna buetooth v2.0
I will sale my old antenna to someone having a older phone.
First, to all the cooks - amazing job!! you are all gifted in the kitchen.
I am trying to get the GSat (BT-359) GPS to work with WM6 Themed LSVW Radio 1.38.00.10. I tried to move up the latest version (abut of bright lights in the kitchen - white screen) forced me to retreat to 3/15.
The GPS issue - I cannot seem to get it to read the stream properly. I had to move to WM6 to get the 38400 setting option, but it still spits out garbel letters from the GPSInfo app. I did try pairing it with my laptop and using SiRFDemo - it was able to read at 57600 (which it says it doesn't do) and found only the SiRF stream is working - with the NMEA strem spitting nothing out.
So I am asking the pro's out there... am I missing something?
thanks
side note: does the Hermes100 have the GPS in it like other posts are talking about - or a higher model? I heard rumors that all the hermes have them (as most high end phones do) to be ready for the e911. Not sure if this is true though.
Going through the development forums I discovered this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353774 .Someone posted a link to download a better bluetooth manager , after downloading and started installing it, the installer said it was helmi universal stack.And after looking around I discovered helmi was testing this new stack he was porting to htc universal and had headset and a2dp profiles working.So after installing I rebooted and the icon showed at the bottom so to test i clicked start bluetooth and to my surprise IT WORKED !! on my x7500 runnin the official wm6 from htc.On helmis thread he noted that it might work for apache but I confirm it runs on athena.Anybody else have feed back?
!!!!! BACKUP AFTER FURTHER READING SOME FOLKS HAD PROBLEMS IN TERMS OF TOM TOM AND AUDIO MESSUPS AND LOCKING SO BACK UP FAIR WARNING!!! THIS FOR PLAYING WITH IF YOU BACKED UP OTHERWISE YOU CAN MESS UP UR PHONE!!!! I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY AS IM TAKING A RISK MYSELF WITH NO PROBLEMS THUS FAR ON MY PHONE.

helmi universal broadcomm stack thread here,also tells how to restore msft stack
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291639
supported profiles is avrp,a2dp,obex,sap,handset.bt dun,pan,serial.
THIS IS NOT MADE BY ME I SIMPLY FOUND IT IN THE FORUMS.I KNOW THIS WORKS FOR MY DEVICE (X7500 Running Official WM6 From HTC) .ANY OTHER DEVICE OR CONFIGURATION I DONT KNOW CHECK RESPECTED FORUMS FOR POSSIBLE SOLUTION
SPECIAL THANKS TO HELMI FOR PORTING THIS WONDERFUL STACK SO CHECK OUT HIS THREAD ABOVE.
How have you got on with this? BT is really the last bit of the Athena that I am not 100% happy with.
It's seems to work.
Installation with no problem and the bluetooth start.
But i think there is probleme with serial port.
I want to pair a bluetooth barcode reader (Opticon OPL2724). The dongle's driver installs a serial port on the PDA X7500 wich is used by the barcode reader to transmit the data.
I can connect the barcode and i can see in bluetooth manager that the barcode reader is connected (ingoing connection). Just like with my asus P535 with a native widcomm stack.
But I can't receive any data from the barcode reader
Is there a problem with registry setting for serial port ? This stack is for Universal and maybe there is some fix for X7500 especially for the serial port profile.
Please M. Helmi, can you help me. I would love to have this stack working with serial port and my barcode reader !!!
Hmm - just tried this to see if it fixes the problem with my Style-i going out of range all the time and although it shows as connected and I get the headphones on my Athena nothing I do on the Style-i Gets sent to the Athena and music playing comes out on the Athena not the Style-i - so it's just like it isn't connected really!
Oops - went to uninstall it and my phone hung - rebooted and it didn't - after first splash screen it just went bright white. Had to reflash.
Oh well, it probably needed it anyway!
Is there an impact on the GPS? The earlier post mentions possible problems with TomTom

Yeah I found out later on the stack is configurd to the free ports on universal but on athena it conflicts with gps.Gps port is com 5 ,but the bluetooth stack uses com 5 as outgoing serial port.What i did in registry is simply change the gps comm port in registry to comm 9 then configure progs to use that for gps port and it works.Using builtin gps option doesnt work because gpd0 keeps using comm 5 and I believe thats coded in a dll somewhere.
In my original post I mention if you wanted to uninstall the stack to check out that helmi thread because it explained how to do so and it even had a activate ms stack cab there.I Did say backup before install.
Also found out that if you have stack running and reset it deletes connection settings, activesync settings and hides phone setting tabs ( I used schaps tools to fix that)
For now I dont use this stack anymore untill helmi or someone who has the knowledge to make a few simple fixes ( I GUESS MOSTLY REGISTRY) to get this working 100 percent on athena.
the file is expired, could someone who has it post it with a little bit more details about installation process
thansk
I would like to see this as well
I used the older Helmi stack on my Universal and it was much better it's the only one that works with the Chainpus/Random branded Bluetooth Gamepad as their MS Stack drivers does not work with their own product but generally seemed a better stack overall. I'm tempted to give this one a whirl and see if it behaves as the older one was a bit buggy when I tried it before and had to do the whole hard reset thing.
Hopefully this will be the topping on the cake now I have AP4 up and running
hi everyone.
sorted a mate with tom tom 7 on his charmer with newest wm5 official (o2). program works fine, but the problem is linking with his copilot gps bt module.
it all works well until the GPS MODULE is turned off, like you would overnight.
when turned back on, the pda asks if you want to connect. saying yes prompts for the passcode for gps module, but now have to re-do all settings on pda and tom tom, before it will work.
i tried it with my hermes running wm6.1 pro, and i dont have a problem.
any ideas?
Install WM 6.1 on Charmer. (Maybe this works cause you said it works on Hermes.)
i will as a last resort. i was just wondering if anyone else had come across this problem before
Found way around the problem. Tried a different GPS unit, works brilliantly.
not fixed the problem, but good enough
