Hi

I have an XDA Exec which is only a few months old. I have used it with TomTom6 and a bluetooth GPS receiver without any problems. I haven't used it for a few weeks and I have been tryng to set it up for a trip but I keep seeing "No GPS Devive" on the screen.

Now you may be thinking that it's the receiver which is faulty as I did at first. I tried the receiver with another device and it's working fine.

I haven't changed or installed anything since it was last working so I'm at a total loss.

I have a bluetooth headset which is still working so the bluetooth is okay. I have even tried a hard reset and reinstalled TomTom.

Anyone any ideas please?

Hi,

You might try this:

I've had pretty good luck with it but I'm still learning about my Universal.

Good luck!

I would go to your Bluetooth manager page tap and hold on the GPS icon and select DELETE, next re-establish the bond/ pair between the device's and your application should start working again.
If you are unsure about setting up the device have a read through http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=50105 Which details setting up an Exec to work with the TomTom application - you should not need to use Fransons GPS Gate to get TomTom working, the utility from Franson is a great application when you find you have a need for it - Mike
