I've got a problem bonding my AVL BT-15 GPS receiver to Cingular 2125. It bonds successfully, but every time my GPS is turned off and then back on the bond goes away and I have to repeat the entire bonding process:

- Delete the existing 'BT GPS' device

- Settings, Connection, Bluetooth, New Devices, Add Device

- Use passkey 0000

- Enable the checkmark for Serial Connection

- Create a new Outgoing Com Port (Com7)

- Configure application (Mapopolis) GPS for Com7 4800 bps

I'm confident the problem isn't because of Mapopolis. When I had an Audiovox SMT5600 running AT&T ROM, it always bonded and the bond would remain permanent even after power cycling. When I upgraded the ROM to the Cingular SMT5600 ROM, I started having the bonding problems. I tried the Windows Mobile 5 ROM just for the heck of it, and the bonding issue was there. The only way to make the bond permanent was to go back to the AT&T ROM.

Now that I've upgraded to the new phone (Cingular 2125) running Windows Mobile 5, the bonding issue comes up again. I can get around it by deleting the existing 'BT GPS' device and rebonding as described above but it is a great pain. Obviously I don't have the luxury of going back to my AT&T ROM anymore.

I've got to imagine somebody has the same problem above...please help, I've been searching for days with no luck in resolving this issue. What am I doing wrong?
