Does anybody know how to get the XDA EXEC to work with BT GPS
FGPXBT02 as I am really struggling to get this device to work. My phone can see the device in bluetooth but when I run TomTom 5 on the phone the program cannot see the GPS device in the "OTHER BLUETOOTH RECEIVERS" section.

Any ideas?

You probably already solved this, but if not. Make an outgoing port to the GPS in WM5 and select it in TT under the other GPS options. Let me know if you need more help.

And another thing, you will need TT5.21 at least, I believe

I guess. The TT5 CD's I had crashed instantly on Windows when I tried to install them. On the TT pages there is a workaround to get the map to a Win folder and then copy them over. Also the downloaded update installs nicely.

I'm kind of annoyed at TT, since I have the European maps and figured I'd only need an update for my region. Well the maps from TT5 mobile aren't compatible with TT6 so I'd lose all the European maps. And I think the complete update now gives you a 1GB map with all of Europe - I'd much rather just install the countries I need.
