Re: Are the GPS settings hard-coded in these ROMs?

From my experience, the settings in "External GPS" really only apply to the internal GPS and configure a port that emulates an external GPS.

I can switch back and forth between the internal and external Bluetooth GPS on my Mogul just by selecting different ports in my application. If your application does not allow you to manually select the port, try disabling the "Manage GPS Automatically" check-box in "External GPS", and configure your Bluetooth GPS to use a COM port such as COM5, and see if the application will find it.

If you have not already done so, after you pair the Bluetooth GPS receiver, go to the "COM Ports" tab and create a "New Outgoing Port" for that device.
