Qtek 8080 + Fortuna GPSmart + Mapopolis


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello friends,

Mapopolis apparently is the first GPS application ported for Smartphone OS and working with Bluetooth.

I own a Fortuna GPSmart, which is a nice device as it has a monochrome display (means: it can work as a standalone GPS device) and can bond via BT to an other BT-device, such as the iPAQ.

Advantage: provides data for being used with detailed maps.

Tried to use it with the Qtek 8080 (firmware 1.7.x) over BT with Mapopolis Trial.

Didn't work :-((

The Qtek finds the device but continuously asks for the BT-PIN (this is generally 0000 for the GPSmart, but it doesn't work).

As I also read reports saying it works (however most people say it currently doesn't) I suppose that the few people who succeeded in using Mapopolis on the Qtek 8080 have already the beta firmware on their Smartphone or maybe a later version than 1.7.x

Can anyone confirm that the above combination is working and post here which firmware he is using ?

Thanks !
