i just got the camerlert app but cant get a decent gps signal in my gsi zafira due to the windowscreen being reflecting
i am thinking about getting a bluetooth gps receiver to put in the rear window but i know apple and bluetooth have problems pairing with certain devices not sure if this is still a problem tho this was the case when i have my 3gs a year or so ago i am using a iphone 4 on f/w 4.3.2 if that help

can anyone advise if a bluetooth gps receiver will work and if anyone has got one they can recommend

cheers baz

It is possible to use an external BT GPS but only if your iPhone is jail broken, if its got stock Apple OS then a BT GPS isn't an option.

There are a couple of GPS equipped holders that do work with the iPhone such as the holder from TomTom, this acts as a cradle, external speaker, external GPS and power source for the iPhone but at £99 its not cheap, have a look on Amazon and it can be found for under £75 - Mike

jailbreaking is the easiest way to do this and then use a bt gps the gps stack that needs downloading after jailbreaking is only about 3 pounds you dont even need to conntect to your computer o jailbreak the iphone it can all be done over wifi on the phone unfortunatly with the 3gs its a nessacery evil with the poor gps that is supplied in the 3gs
