I'm just going crazy with this problem:
I installed TT6 on the I-mate Jamin, connected to the BT GPS Holux GPSlim236 and it was working. After some hours or days, when I launch TT6, it does not recognize the BT GPS, it displays " no GPS (flight mode)" also if BT is active on the pda.

I tried also to update the firmware to the LvsW AKU 2.3.1 that should be very stable but the problem arised again. If I install again TT& it works again for some hour only.

Anothe strange behaviour is that TT6 is not trying to activate automatically the BT when launched, while after the installation it was.

Any solution?

Thanks in advance

did you disabled the phone?
when the phone is off, even if bluetooth is on, tomtom can not communicate with any bluetooth gps.

Maybe yes, I disabled the phone, as I was doing in my previous iPaq WM2003. I will follow your indication and give feedback asap. The strange thing is that other GPS programs are working with the BT GPS even if the phone is disabled.

Thank you, adl67-san, zadigre-san.

I had same problem with my QTEK9000 & TomTom6.

The problem was TomTom6 can not find GPS receiver(Holux GPSlim240).

But after Phone function is ON, it works well.
(Normally, I use my QTEK9000 without SIM.)

This problem has bother me for 1 month.

Now I can use it.

Thanks a lot again.

Sincerely yours,
