Bluetooth GPS instructions via headset


Recommended Posts

Firstly, can a bluetooth headset and GPS be used at the same time.

If yes, is it possible to get spoken voice prompts through a bluetooth headset if both are being used, or are voice prompts transmitted via speaker on Jam only? The reason I ask is that road noise makes the Jams tinny speaker difficult to hear...

Not sure if what you are suggesting works, but I have a different setup which solves the problem...

I have my Jam mounted on a suction cup holder thing, with the audio output routed to the car stereo via a cassette adaptor.

I can listen to my MP3s through the car stereo, and when an instruction comes up on TomTom, it also comes through the car stereo - it works a treat!

No. The (sh1t) M$ BT stack does not support BT audio Gateway.

Thanks for the help guys!

I'll try the Bluetooth tools as I've been after something like this for a while...

Seeing as though I can't get GPS thru the bluetooth headset, I'm gonna use this little FM Transmitter. Hopefully it'll have a 2.5 mm jack.... and work!!!

Also got my eye on this Car Mount too!

Is there anywhere that has more info on this Bluetooth Tools software? Any reviews? I see it's been a year since it's been updated, has it been abandoned?
