GPS configuration - TOM TOM

[Sir P]

Hello,

I have installed TomTom navigator on my o2 xda Orbit... however it says 'no GPS device'.

There is a settings panel in tomtom and a settings panel on the windows mobile control panel but i dont know what to set exactly...

How do I know what port it is it? also In tomtom i selected TomTom wired GPS reciever, I assumed that was closest to what I had.

But no luck.
Any ideas?

Many thanks
Sir P

i can list you what i have in my settings (with working tomtom of course):

my WM6 is in german, but i translate. however, i dont know the exact names of all the settings.

in WM settings:
GPS program port: COM4
GPS hardware port: (none)
Baudrate: 4800
and check the "manage GPS automatically" box

in tomtom (settings->GPS status->config):
"built-in" gps receiver

hope this helps you.

[Sir P]

thansk very much for your help.

worked it out shortly after i posted,i just set the tomtom gps port setting to the same as in windows mobile, com4.. and worked :)

so all good now,

cheers though

And doing it that way allows you to use TT6 in 'flight' mode (sim disabled). Whereas if you set it to use the 'inbuilt gps', TT6 says 'no gps' in flight mode.
