Having installed TOMTOM6 on my HTC-3300 (t-Mob branded) I am looking for a way to route TOMTOM traffic messages thru my bluetooth carkit.
Obviously the phone calls go through fine, but afaik all the pda apps. sounds only run thru the mda's speaker.

Does anyone know a workaround or reg. tweak to do this?, I can't immagine I am the only one who would be looking for such functionality.....unless everybody else uses the gps function only 4 walking :)

Help much appreciated,

Frans

If your car kit supports the A2DP profile for Audio over Bluetooth and you select the option to use it all the audio from TomTom will be via the car kit, check what your car kit is capable of supporting - Mike

Thanks for the tips!

My Nokia carkit does not support A2DP, it's the old CK-7W type....:(

I will try the above attached btaudio once more. Previous attempts using this program were not succesful, I believe the bt hardware of the artemis was not recognized.

I remember that on my IPAQ 5550 I changed a registry setting, enabling audio over BT, but I could not find such an entry in the Artemis reg.

Keep you posted on progress, and thanks sofar!

Just tried btaudio, attached by hotatomic, and it works!!!!

Haven't tried what happens if I get an incoming call yet, but the sound for TT6 is much better using the Nokia handsfree.

Thanks!!!

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie here, and was pointed to your excellent forum from one of the Mods over at pocketgpsworld.com.

I am running copilot 6 on an O2-registered xda Orbit, using a scala rider headset, on my motorbike, and i need to install btaudio.cab to mt xda in order for the insturctions to be relayed to my earpiece. My question is this - whereabouts to do i need to upload the file to on my xda (obviously somewhere in the copilot files, but i'm not sure where!!) and do i need to unpack it first?

Any help or tips gratefully recieved!!

No transfer the cab file directly to the orbit, (storage card is usually the best place to put them).
Then in file explorer, double click the .cab file to run it and it will install the application.

It's a separate application to Copilot.

That's brilliant, many thanks. I did as you said, and it is now working perfectly.

Once again, many thanks indeed :)

i have a orbit and i installed the btaudio cab but unfortunately it doesnt work for me. do i need to change any other setting for it to work properly? i am using a motorola hs350 headset. i am trying to use it to listen to music on my headset instead of the internal speaker. i tested tomtom6 with it and that is still being heard on the speaker and not the headset. thanks

Connect the headset to the Artemis first, then run BTAudio, switch to "on" and then minimize don't exit the program.

Have you got software that closes apps by pressing the x button or something, so that you keep switching the app off when activating tomtom etc.

Hi,

I seem to be having the same problem as some of the other guys. The Bt software is installed on my Orbit, I pair the phone with my car then switch the software on. At this stage the TomTom voice stops coming from the phone but doesn't come through the handfree either. If I switch the software off again the sound returns to the phone.

Is this being caused by the format of the handfree kit in my car as mentioned on the first page of this post?? How would I positively confirm the format of my handsfree kit?

Cheers

Rob.

i try to install and it works, but when i turn on audio my radio goes in mute, is possible to send the sound only when tomtom talk?

I also need help with audio features. Is there an app that will send all audio through the head phone socket (connected to autocom on motorbike) and phone calls through bluetooth have tryed the app in this tread but it wont split it only redirects all audio? :) :)
PS sorry for the high jack of your thread just seemed a good place to ask this. :)
