Tom Tom 5 with Nokia 6680 and GP-27 Cpit GPS Receiver - HELP

I really hope someone can help me...

Just got my first smart phone, the Nokia 6680. I have my Tom Tom 5 installed but whenever I start the application I just get a 'GPS device not found' message.

The 6680 can see the GP-27 (which I have renamed in the phone as 'TomTom Wireless GPS') but for some reason that escapes me the application just won't see it.

Is there some COM port settings or something I need to change on the GPS device? If so, how do I do that?

Please someone, anyone help me out - I'm tearing my hair out!!

Thanks in advance - Ben

Thanks chaps, I actually stumbled across it last night and got it working. Was too busy driving around having fun with it to update the thread!

All I had to do was select that option in Tom Tom and all was fine and dandy. Smile

I have a Nokia 6680, tom tom 5 mobile and CP-27 reciever. I however get itermittent failures, with TomTom stating no valid GPS reciever. On the intsructions for the reciever it gives a bluetooth pass key of 000000 (six zero's), however when I try to pair these up I get no Joy. I'm not sure if this is the problem or not. Has anybody else managed to pair these up or had similar experiences?

I have the same problem (no GPS signal, No connection GPS,...)

I used a 6680 + Tomtom mobile 5 and GPS leadtek 9537.

I put the new firmware of Nokia V4.04.07. (last week)
Some bugs are corrected but not resolve all problems with the bluetooth connection

The connection is very difficult.

step by step:
1/ Start the GPS (waiting the LED green (recept of Sat)) 45sec
2/ Start Tomtom mobile 5 (it asks to activate the bluetooth) 15sec
3/ the Tomtom mobile 5 is ready.

(I used also nokia 6600 with Tomtom 3 and tomtom 5 without problem)

If somebody have a solution
Is it a know problem with The bluetooth?

The problem come from the TOMTOM with the bluetooth GPS.

(With my old firmware v3.03.11: Impossible to connect my GPS with the 6680 and Tomtom 5 (or 3) sometimes the connection was ready after 15min.)

I'm waiting a new firmware and a new updated from tomtom mobile 5.
