6680 bluetooth prob with GPS.

[bestyman]

Hi,
I had a nokia 3230 working perfectly with tomtom mobile 5 ( version 5.0) but recently bought a nokia 6680.

The problem is getting the phone to pair with the bluetooth reciever at start up .

When I start TT it says NO GPS DEVICE , so I go to SHOW GPS STATUS ( or press 56661, but I do not Configure, then they will pair .

I have gone into the configure screen and set up non tomtom gps, I have been on the bluetooth menu of the phone and set it up as a paired device that is authorised ( the device is BTGPS74R ). I have even been to nokia today and had the phones firmware upgraded

Its no big deal typing 56661 but I have to do this many times a day every day so would like a solution, This problem seems similar to the one n70 users are having. Any ideas?

So I need a solution. I am considering buying a genuine tomtom sirf 3 gps reciever but need help to know if this would cure my problem for sure. Also is the tomtom reciever better ( in performance) than mine. The one I have at the moment ( think it was a 32 chanel one, not sure of name) works better than my tomtom go classic in that it works indoors but out and about its less accurate. Was let down by narrow streets in Spain recently.

Any help appreaciated.
