GPS works fine in Google Maps but not in TomTom or Igo

[Guest JHX]

The GPS on my Omnia only works in Google Maps.

When I try to use TomTom Navigator 7 or Igo8 neither of them can find the device. TomTom has a message saying "No GPS Device" constantly shown in the bottom-left of the screen and Igo just never shows any bars on the satellite reception area of the screen.

the GPS is set to COM3 and the right baud rate, which is why it works perfectly in Google Maps I guess.

Any ideas why I can't get it to work in TomTom/Igo?
