GPS: Working w/Live & Google - but never TomTom?
hi everyone. I have no problems getting GPS to work in Live Search and Google, however I have never gotten it to work with TomTom 6. Is there something special people are doing?
I have it set to other NMEA GPS and Com 4 / 4800 - all the recommended settings. The only thing I ever see is no gps device found even if I fire up either Live or GOogle and the GPS is clearly working and tracking satellites - I can launch Tomtom immediately after and it shows no GPS device. Tomtom works fine with my BT GPS module. And AstroGPSLauncher doesnt do anything for me. Any advice? Thanks. |

I've found that you've got to wait about a minute or two for it to "wake up". You should also use the AstroGPSLauncher app. It works really well with TomTom.

What version is your tomtom?

You mentioned you had it set to other NMEA GPS and Com 4 / 4800. I have mine set to Other Bluetooth GPS Receiver (Com 4 / 4800) and it works fine. It's a long shot and probably unlikely but see if that makes a difference.
