Mobility Site - View Single Post - Broadcom Bluetooth Stack & BT GPS receiver Trouble

ishare · 08-22-06, 04:14 AM

I just installed the Widcom Bluetooth Stack from Axim, it looks much more sophisticated than the build-in MS Bluetooh Stack and I got my BT headset working.

However, none of my navigation software can find GPS signal!

In the Widcom Bluetooth manager, my Globlsat 359w can be found, paired and connected.

However it dosen't say which COM and speed.

I can get GPSinfo to pickup signals after mannually select BT - GPS - xxxx in the manager.

No matter how hard I try, IGuidance / Microsoft Pocket Street failed to find any GPS signal at any COM, including COM7 OR COM8.

What do I do?

By the way, Is "GPS" in WM5 "settings" useless now after I installed the Widcomm BT Stack?
