MPx220 and TomTom Mobile 5 with a non TT GPS?

[Guest hueznar]

Hi:

I have a Motorola MPx220 and Tom Tom Mobile 5 without the original TomTom GPS Receiver.

Well... I have another different GPS (LEadtek 9537), and I'm trying to get it working with TT5, but not success ;) .My phone detects the GPS and I can pair the two together, but TT5 shows a message telling that the GPS device was not detected.

In the settings menu I chooose the option ( Other Bluetooth GPS ) instead of the TT GPS.

Can anybody help me please?

Thank you

Yep, I'm having the same problem. I'm hoping that someone out there is looking into a patch for TTM5. I had one previously for 4.74, but this was just the traffic upgrade. Now this module is include in TTM5, I've not managed to get it to work, so I can only guess, they've cottoned on to this loophole in the software. I'll be looking for patches from now on...

Anyone hear anything, please please reply.

is your mobile a MPx220?.

What firmware is recommended to run Tomtom mobile 5 with a non tomtom GPS?.

Please tell me how did you fixed the problem. I selected the option "another GPS", but not success. ;)
